DOLLAR DAY IN
CITY IS SUCCESS
Unusual Crowds of Shoppers
Testify to Success of
Venture.

Crowds of early morning shoppers
Friday testified TO the drawing quail
tiles Of "a dollar day advertisement.
As early as 1870. the streets were
thronged with women bent on avail
ing themselves of the opportunities
offered by merchants 10 get s.
worth of value out of 81 spent The
project was in every way up TO the
expectations of the merchants who
placed their wares on special sale
Some exceptionally good bargains
were offered and were quickly snap
ped up by the eager women buyers
The increasing cost Of all wearing
apparel added largely to the success
of the enterprise, as many garments
were disposed of at less than cost,
which ordinarily are priced consid-
erably higher at this time tnan a
year or two ago.
As the morning passed. the
crowds were augmented 10 such an
extent that in several of the stores
it was found necessary to increase
the corps of salespersons. Provisions
had already been made, but the
number Of shoppers exceeded all
expectation. In two or three il was
impossible to accommodate the GUS
toners. and the doors were locked
until those in the store could be
waited on.
Advertising Pays.
While but a comparatively small
percent of the city's merchants
could be induced TO fall in line with
dollar day sale, the streets bore
testimony TO the fact that the news
papers are read widely and that ad-
vertising is the merchants surest
method of bringing the business.
one Il the features which espe-
cially pleased Mishawaka business
men and gave further proof of the
convincing quality of the advertise
ments, was the fact that many South
Bend women came over early in the
morning and returned later i'm the
day with their arms filled with par
GELS. Most of the shoppers express
ed surprise and satisfaction that the
goods sold were in unusually good
shape. and were plainly not of the
ordinary shelf-worn variety disposed
of on such occasions.
Wide smiles on the faces of the
business men gave evidence of the
satisfaction they felt at the success.
of the enterprise, and the uausua
activity on the streets lent an en-.
tirely new aspect to the city. Idea

the success. and made of the Occa
sion something of a holiday

To .An Amiab,s Child"

A small monument reminiscent OF
old-time New York is often noted on
Riverside drive. near that somber me-
mortal, Grants tomb. The little stone
is inscribed Erected to the Memory
Of an Amiable Child" The touching
inscription has aroused much curl
osity as to the unrecorded name Of
the victim of an untimely fate. A
New York city paper says that the
child was the son of George Pollock,
who owned a tract of land In this Sec
ton In 1797. While this "amiable
child" was on fishing excursion with
his father at a place called Fishing
Rock, short distance out in the riv-
er, he fell overheard and was drown
ed. The father wrote, in conveying
to another person the land where tho
monument stands: 'The surrounding
ground will fall into the hands Of I
know not whom, whose prejudlces or
better taste may remove the monu-
ment and lay the inclosure open. You
will confer a peculiar and interesting
favor upon me by allowing me to con-
vey the inclosure to you
keeping 1t, however, always incaosed
and sacred."-Jfom the Outlook.

wood. steel or cement and it looks as II we
should indeed. have 100000 tons Of freight
ers afoat before the end of the year.
few weeks ago the nation was thrilled
when news came from the Pacific coast that
. steel cargo carrier of $500 tons was put over
board 55 working days after the laying Of her
keel and was delivered to the Emergency Fleet
corporation ready for service II days later. But
the record thus set by the steamship West Lianga,
built at Seattle by the Skinner Eddy company
was fated to survive only a short while.
On April the keel of the collier Tuckahoe
was laid at the yard of the New York Shipbuild-
Ing company at Camden, N. ]. Twenty-seven
days afterward May g. the ship was launched
IS per cent toward total completion. and
May Is she was in all respects fit to be turned
over to the government authorities. Her con-
did not call for her delivery until the middle
Of June.
The West Lianga. 1t should be borne in mind,
Is ship Of $500 tons dead weight capacity.
while the Tuckahoe is of $500 tons, and this diff
ference brings the two achievements much
closer to equality than Is commonly recognized.
For instance. the Skinner Eddy steamship
probably has In her getup substantially 6OO.-
600 rivets, while the collier built on the Della
ware called for substantially 100000 rvets.
When all is said and done the rate Of prog
ress of ship under construction Is pretty ac-
curately judged by the number of rivets driven
because the ultimate factor Is the riveting gang.
and muscular effort and human endurance on
the part Of these men determine the speed of
assembling.
The driving of rivets cannot be lodged or Inn
perfectly done II the craft Is to be put together
properly, and while exceptional records have been
made of late in rivet driving these performances
| are In the main isolated and by no means an In
dex of everyday and universal occurrence. Some
of the especially expert gangs have driven any
where from 1900 10 1900 rivets In a days
work. but the majority Of them do not average
more than 400 riyets during a regular shift
How then was 1t possible to put the TuckahOe
together between April and May 8?
The New York Shipbuilding corporation
about 10 years ago initiated the standardized
ship with the idea Of producing economically and
rapidly numerous vessels of Identical form and
size
Just before the Tuckahoe taken In hand
40 It IL said d sister ship was constructed and
simultaneously the materials for the Tuckahoe
were prepared and accumulated 10 that they
would be all ready for what might be termed
| rseord-making undertaking. With the Ssster

 No further returns were obtainaple yes terdav as the returning officers mercy brought the boxes to the sheriffs ofhee and the sealed envelopes containing the ballots to the probate judges office and left them without stating the number of ballots cast or the number received by the respective candidates.
 The SS voting places from which re- turns were received by The Age-Herald Tuesday night are fairly representative of the county, and based on these the total vote in the county is estimated al something like 5000, or less than one half of the total registration. The fina! result will probably show MT. Huddieston, democratic nominee. leading his repub- lican opponent by about five to one.
 MT. Huddleston was feeling very good yesterday over the great majority given him in the election.

Devastation Of Belgium,
 Continued By Germans

Washington. November $. Y Germas forces in their retreat from Belgium are bcmbarding defenseless towns, using es- pecial1y gas shells. and devastating the countryside, according to an eyewitness account made public today by the Bel gian legation.
 The Belgian government has been in- formed" said the statement, "by re- liable eyewitness. who follows closely the operations at the Belgian front that, at the very moment that the German government has announced her protos' against inhumane acts and while Ger. many offers to step aerial bombardments tn the interest of the civil population of the occupied territory, the Germans have boinbarded the villages and towns which they were obliged to abandon dur ing their retreat they have used especial ly gas shells for this purpose.
 "Indescribably heart-rcnding scenes have occurred, the unfortunate popula. ton having no gas masks ar. means oi protection against these death spreading fumes. A Belgian soldier entering Wyne- heme, his home town, found his wife dying and his little daughter dead, vic tins of the poison gas, and his home a heap of ruins. The country all around Ghent. the rich and beautiful cultivated fields and pastures, the picturesque vii- lages of Hansbeke, Landeghem, Nevele Laethem, Saint Martin, Tronchiennes, present a horrible sight of devastation and havoc. Not church was spared from destruction.

Colored People Line-Up
 For United War Drive

The army that put the Fourth Liberty
 Loan proposition over among colored peo-
 pie is working earnestly in the united
 war work drive. County Chairman w.
 B. Driver called a conference wednes- day evening and the heads of the four armies were present and outlined plans for covering the district. Forty of the
 most prominent colored men in the city have sbeen selected, most of whom are
 of the four-minute organization, and they will meet Friday night at o'clock 1T, the assembly hall of the our-rninute or ganization.
 The men are very enthusiasticj as well as the women who are engaged in this effort. The women's division of the four minute men met Wednesday evening at the Colored Elks Rest, and outlined plans for a speaking tour of the county. Mrs. A. W. Harney. the chairman, has been asked to make five special addresses in
 other sections of the state. All indica- tions are that the colored people arc go- ing to make lasting record in this drive.
 The meeting for Friday night will be held on the fifth floor of the Pythian temple, slo Eighteenth street, north.

 of Hausbeke alone. A portion Of the
 population who had fled from their homes
 during the fighting and 'bombardment
 found op their return mere ruins and
 debris-trees had been cut down, houses
 ransacked, furniture smashed to pieces,
 fields devastated.
 From these facts one may appreciate how hypocritical are the Humanitarian
 propositions and protestations of the Ger Tran government"
 The legation also made public cap tured order of q Bavarian division con- lnandor as further evidence that the Ger mans are robbing and footing Belgium.
 The order says:
 "Regrettabie as the situation is of the
 Belgian populace thes question of supplies for our troops. heavily engaged at the front, must remain for us of paramount importance. For this reason the Hast draft horse, the last vehicle must be requisitioned and used to the greatest ad- vantage.

 They must be considered strictly as the population of an enemy state with which we are at war. Therefore, it is particu- l larly forbidden to assist the civilian pop ulation in any way; military interests alone should be considered. The prod ucts of the country must be utilized sole ly in our own interest,""
