New Year was ushered in amid the blowing of factory whistles, ring.ing of bells and other noises. A drizzling rain fell all evening and few pedestrians were on the streets. This big social event was the dinner dance at the Mishawaka hotel, which was a most brilliant event. All reservations had been made early in the day and the management found it necessary to disappoint many who tried to find accommodatlon. Well over 100 couples were present, including many from South Bend, Elkhart and other adjoining cities. Sen. BeardsIey and party came over from the latter city. Fischer's splendid orchestra from Kalamazoo supplied the music for the dancing, which was kept up with much zest from 9 until 2:30 this morning. At 11:30 a supper was served. As the New Pear was ushered in it received a tremendous ovation from the guests. Many amusing stunts were pulled off, all of which added to the merriment of the occasion. The consensus of opinion was that the affair was without exception the most enjoyable that ever happened in Mishawaka. Many attended the watch night services at the various churchs while many private parties featured the occasion.

G. W. Titus, who spent seven and a half months with the first division of American forces in France during the hard days of fighting, has received an urgent call to return to the men overseas. The National War Work Council, New York city, has made the local minister a very flattering offer, with the promise of a position of great responsibility. The unit with which Mr. Titus was formerly connected is part of the army of occupation and he would be sent immediately into Germany with the men of the regular army. This is a splendid testimonial to the feeling that existed between Titus and the men of the army. When he left them in front of St. Mihiel the soldiers in his battery presented him with a magnificent watch and purse of money. It is not known whether Mr. Titus, who is minister of the First Christian church, will accept the offer, but he has the matter under consideration

added to the surplus account of

both institutions. the First National being increased $5,000 and the First Trust $4,000. These strong institutions now have a combined capital of $150,000 and surplus of $85,000.

PERSHING AT TEMPLE TODAY "Land of the Free," the first authoritative story ever brought together of Gen. Pershing's life in any form, will be shown at the Temple today. Its scenes are in every quarter of the globe. It has thrilling and realistic battle scenes of all descriptions, from fights with the Indians and the Moros to the clash of the perfected armies of the Allies and the Huns. Eight different armies of trained men were created for the making of the picture. The rulers of Great Britain and France, the statesmen and warriorsof the Allies, the president of the United States and the leaders of thought and action of all the world are shown in the picture.

The annual salesman's school in connection with the Mishawaka Woolen Mfg. Co., will be held Thursday and Friday of this week. Thursday, as is customary on the first day of the school, the salesmen will march from the factory to the Hotel Mishawaka headed by the "Ball-Band" band. The annual dinner given by the company will take place at the hotel Thursday evening and as usual will be of an enjoyable nature. Fischer's exposition orchestra of Kalamazoo, will provide music and other entertainment. The Mishawaka Woolen Mfg. Co. was one of the pioneers of the "Salesmen's School'' idea, the first having been held in 1892 under the direction of Adolphus Eberhart and Martin V. Beiger, founders of the business. There will be 150 salesmen present at this week's function. This does not include the salesmen traveling out of Denver under the direction of William V. Tascher, who has charge of the mountain and Pacific states. Neither does it include the salesmen for Dunham Bros. & Co., New England agents, who cover all the New England states. The past year has been a very busy one for the company. In addition to furnishing large quantities of goods to the regular retail trade it has also supplied many thousands of pair of rubber boots, arc-

tics and woolen socks to the government and its allies. As an indication of the outlook for 1919, the company has been advertising for help, particularly for

women and girls to learn light shoe making. The salesmen will Ieave Mishawaka Friday evening and will be in their respective territoiies and ready for business Monday morning.

WHATEVER may be the Opportunities or Problems which Peace may bring, this institution extends assurance that just as it consistently rendered helpful service during war times, so it also will serve efficiently and impartially throughout the New Year and the years to come.

METZGER APPOINTED LOCAL PROSECUTOR

County Pros. Samuel P. Schwartz has appointed Charles L. Metzger as deputy prosecutor for Mishawaka,

to succeed Achille Colpaert, who has held the office for the past 12 months. It was not generally known that a change was contemplated in the office and the appointment of Mr. Metzger will come as a surprise. Mr. Colpaert's services, according to City Judge Feig and other members of the administration, have been highly satisfactory. Mr. Metzger, besides his law practice, does a considerable real estate business.
