COAL SITUATION
IS SERIOUS HERE
Dealers Drawing Supplies
From FaCtOrieS-Night
Schools to be Closed.

The coal situation has reached a
serious stage in Mishawaka. The
dealers have sold every pound they
had in their yards, and but for the
timely assistance of the Wooden
and Dodge companies, which are
letting the coal men have what they
want, the city would be in the midst
Of a famine.
The dealers have a number of
bona fide orders in hand and these
are being attended TO first w +.
Miller, local fuel administrator, is
prepared to see that consumers who
are actually in need of coal and who
have not already placed their or
ders. VIII get sufficient to keep them
going if they notify him at the
Wooden Co.'S office.
Schuyler Rose has a car on the
tracks and this is being shared be-
tween the Major Packing Co, and
the public schools. The former was
completely out of coal and Would
have had TO close down the plant
but for the timely assistance OF Mr..
Rose.
hau NefDdl UNDERSTANDINGS.
In reference to the report of the
meeting of the coal men with Mr..
Miller in the Herzog & Anderson Of
fee Monday evening. Mr.. Rose ex-
planned that although he had no con-
tract from the school board there
was a verbal understanding that he
would supply il with !, 500 tons this
season. Mr.. Miller states that ne
accepted this business in good faith.
He had teams in Mishawaka Sunday
last which hauled coal from the
Wooden company 10 the high scnool.
The high school has on hand at
present one weeks supply; Battell.
two weeks; South side. one week,
and the Beiger school quite a guam
tity.
Owing to the seriousness of the
situation the night schools have
been closed, but classes will be re-
sumed when the situation rights it
self.
Fred Partridge treaurer of the
school board, has sent the following
TO The News-Times for publication:
To the Citizens of Mishawaka:
lAt AlAoilcl NJ and NOAulll4 VI NAAE
South Bend dailies of January 18th
contained an item in regard 70 the
local fuel situation. The statement
was made that the board of educa-
ton had a contract with Mr.. Rose
of South Bend TO supply the city
schools with 800 tons of coal for
the season of 1917-1S. This was
an error.
The board was unable TO make
contract with any dealer for its
needs for this season but has been
dependent on the general market.
up to the present time, our needs
have been supplied by Mr.. Rose and
Herzog &, Anderson and they would
have been able TO continue the SER
vice had it not been FOR the tie-up
in transportation.
I'VE desire to express our appre
citation for their efforts and to the
Mishawaka Wooden Mfg. Co. and
Dodge Mfg. CO. for the assistance
given in the present emergency"

PROGRAM GIVEN
BY MUSIC DEPT.
Patriotic and National Music
is Topic Of interesting
Discussion.

Mrs. II. +. Suders delivered an
absorbing talk on patriotic and ma
uonal music at the regular meeting
Of the music department OF the
Woman's club Tuesday evening.
Hiss Veva Newman gave an inter-
esting current events discussion.
Several of the national patriotic airs
were played on the piano and the
entire gathering sang the Star
Spangled Banner" Following the
program chorus rehearsal under the
direction of Prof. Owens was held.
Mrs. Suders said in part: While
all patriotic and national music is
to a greater or less extent, popular
music, il may be classed apart in
that its growth is largely due TO the
circumstances of war and is the-Out-
come of such conditions. America
is rich in its songs of this character
and it is thus hard TO fix on any one
and term it our national anthem
Revolution First Incentive.
THE first incentive TO patriotic vc-
cal music was the revolution, later
the war Of 1912. and still later the
civil war Today, in our present
crisis we find many attempts at pa
triotic songs Hail Colum bia' is the
eldest patriotic song of the United
States. The music was originally
known as The Presidents March,
written in 1888. During the revolu-
tionary period, Yankee Doodle ap-
peared and was claimed by many
nations, but became ours by right
OF adoption.
The Star Spangled Banner was
written during the war of 1912 after
the attack on TT. McHenry. Its
popularity grew until today it is
given first place among our national
songs and is the authorized music
during the salute of the flag in both
army and navy.
During the civil war the Battle
Hymn of the Republic 'Tenting on
the Old Camp Ground Marching
Through Georgia. and The Battle
Cry Of Freedom appeared. We Are
Coming Father Abraham appeared
two weeks before Pres't Lincoln's
call for 10000 volunteers and there
is little doubt that this song had
much 10 do with bringing item in.
Dixie was the most popular war
song Of the confederate army After
the war When Johnny Comes
Marching Home was the favorite
song"
