HAIL STORM
A REMINDER

The hall storm which struck Gary
early Saturday evening brought back
10 recollection to many Crown Pointers
residing in the steel city the terrific
and costly hail storm which hit the
county seat some Is years ago. caus-
ing thousands of dollars worth OF dam
age.
The hail storm in Gary. however, did
not reach the severity OF the Crown
Point storm. The size of the hail
did not reach the large proportions as
they did at the county seat although 1t
looked like they might. Some OF the
hail did reach the size of a quart
er though The storm came to an
abrupt stop before any serious dam
age was done.
Recalling the Crown Point storm
the rain of hail was so heavy that It
covered the street Hike a blanket OF
snow strong wind accompanied
IL and there was not a resident In the
entire city that did not suffer from
broken window pains. Some of the
hail specimens found on the streets
and sidewalks were as large as hens
eggs
The rain OF hail also resulted in SEN
sational news stories which were car
ried in press dispatches over the en-
tire country. Glazers at the county
seat did a thriving business and 1t was
several months before the army Of
window pane settlers completer their
task.

The point is declared MT. Noblet.
that the Indiana association is the
organization that is doing the pro-
tective work in Indiana for Indiana
automobile owners. We have sue
ceeded in having passed all the con-
structive and protective legislation

activities the motorists of Lake coun-
ty would be paying 100 per cent in

tax besides. We estimate we have
saved the motorists of Indiana this

defeating the measures referred to
which were about to becoIne laws il

When walking with a woman a mar
invariably asks whether he may re
ileve her Of any parcels she may be
carrying, but if she declines his offer
he should not be insistent. A man
may have to possess a good deal of
discrimination these days to differ
entiate between some of the enlarged
handbags that women carry and a
small bit of luggage. However, he
should always ask to carry the latter
while he would, of course, not ask to
carry her handbag.
A man never takes a woman's arm
when walking In the street save when
she is too old or feeble to walk I'M

decidedly provincial or second rate
to do this.
When walking with a woman a man

which they wished to discuss he might
ask whether he might walk with her
