Also to Rick for the Newspaper Tidbits, these let us know what was happening long ago. A thank you to Jim for all that he has contributed to the web site.

    3. Newapaper Tidbits from Rick B Saturday, March 4, 2006 "The South Bend Weekly Tribune", Saturday, January 15, 1898, page 5 Mr. and Mrs. Daniel Morss, old residents of St. Joseph county, on Sunday celebrated their diamond wedding anniversary. It was a quiet event at the home of their son-in-law and daughter, Mr. and Mrs. Levi Williamson, 1703 Sibley avenue, this city, where the venerable couple have resided for a few years. Mr. and Mrs. Morss were married Jan. 9, 1838, in Dearborn county, this state, and soon afterwards became residents of St. Joseph county. They lived for many years in Warren township, wherre several of their children reside. Mr. Morss is a little past 80 years of age, and was born in Dearborn county, Indiana. Mrs. Morss is 86 years old and is a native of Maine. Both are enjoying good health and bid fair to celebrate many more wedding anniversaries. Their descendants consist of six children, two sons and four daughters, all but one residents of this county, besides 25 grand-children and several great grand-children. Mr. and Mrs. Morss belong to the race of plain, hardy pioneers of Indiana, whose members are fast disappearing from the shores of time, and whose record is one of true worth from first to last.

    3. Newapaper Tidbits from Rick B Saturday, March 4, 2006 "The South Bend Weekly Tribune", Saturday, January 15, 1898, page 5 SOCIETY Tuesday evening for the first time since the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks could boast of a loyal following in South Bend, the ladies were entertained by the local lodge at a social session, informal to a degree, but none the less brilliant because of the enjoyable absence of that social quality that forbids the fervent grasp of extended hands and the promiscuous exchange of opportune greetings. Many times the members of B. P. O. E., No. 235, have gathered in social session in their attractive meeting hall, corner of Main street and Colfax avenue, but never before last evening were the ladies permitted to share the unrestrained hospitality which is a predominant characteristic of a true Elk. The innovation proved so superlatively successful and so entrancingly enjoyable that the antler bearers look with pardonable pride upon the auspicious termination of their inceptive efforts. The home of the South Bend Elks never wore a prettier or more ingeniously patterned gown than that which greeted the eyes of guests last evening. Festoonings of evergreen hung from ceiling to chandelier and from chandelier to ceiling in graceful curves and loops, with dainty pink carnationsnand drooping roses springled prettily among the bewildering picture of artistic adornment. The environment was irresistably conducive of an interningling of guests. The lodge room, in which the musical programme of the evening was given, was made attractive by banks of palms and ferns in either end of the hall backed by American flags beautifully draped. In the center of the room was a pedestal of ferns, palms, roses and carnations, surmounted by a ball of the same which hung from the chandelier. The windows and doors were beautified by portiers of rope evergreen. The banquet hall was decorated similarly. Large bouquets of pink roses sat on each table, and a rose of the same ! color was opposite each plate. The tables were done in ferns and carnations. The musical programme begun at 8:30 o'clock. The Elks' orchestra from Elkhart, rendered four striking selections in its inimitable style and responded to several prolonged encores. Miss Oral Miller sang "Our Baby" in a delightful manner, with Miss Maude Miller as accompanist. Mr. James Stenberg then gave an amusing imitation of a farmer looking for a small town on a railroad map, at the conclusion of which guests were escorted to the banquet hall by the ladies on the reception committee, Mrs. G. H. Wenger, Mrs. William Toepp, Mrs. Max Cohn, Mrs. D. A. Westbury, Miss Maude Miller and Mrs. Charles W. McCann. More than 150 guests were seated at the tables and for more than an hour gave themselves over to the consumption of an elaborate supper. The last course finished, presiding officer D. A. Westbury, rapped for silence and in a few appropriate remarks thanked the ladies who provided the superb decorations and bade them welcome to the home of the Elks. Mr. Frank Dunnahoo followed with a toast on "Our Ladies," in which he eulogized the fair sex generally. District Deputy Grand Exalted Ruler A. B. Armstrong, of Kokomo, Ind., was next introduced, and although he spoke briefly his remarks were appropriate and highly congratulatory. Mr. Max Cohn told the ladies a few things regarding "Our Lodge" and brought considerable mirth out of the corners of the hall. As one who has decided to venture within the lair of the rolicksome Elks Mr. Stuart McKibbin spoke briefly on "Our Expected," a subject which he treated very humorously. This concluded the toast making and the guests re! turned to the lodge room proper where Mr. Louis Cohn gave a perplexing example of mind reading; Master Frank Davis sang several catchy selections; Miss Marie Blowney appeared in a popular ballad and responded to an encore, and Prof. James F. Boyer, of Elkhart, rendered several piano numbers. Guests were then invited to the hall room where to music furnished by the Apollo orchestra, they danced until quite early Wednesday morning. The gentleman's reception committee was composed of D. A. Westbury, William Toepp, Frank Donnahoo, Fred J. Warrell and Charles Bortz, who together with the ladies already mentioned received the guests. [Dunnahoo and Donnahoo are spelled as printed in the newspaper.] There were in all about 200 guests in attendance. The following were here from out of the city: Charles Thennes and wife and Charles Fethke, Michigan City, Ind.; Fred Henock, J. J. Geunther and wife, Laporte, Ind.; A. M. Barren and wife, E. A. LeFerbe, wife and daughter, John Wiler and lady, E. A. Manning and wife, A. M. Smith and wife, George R. Hascall, James F. Boyer, G. Raatz, Jules Stenberg and B. G. Young, Elkhart, Ind.; Mrs. W. A. Roberts, Chicago; Charles McCann and wife, New Carlisle, Ind.; H. M. Geiger, Fort Wayne, Ind.; H. M. De Graff, Jackson, Mich.

    3. Biography from Rick B Friday, March 3, 2006 HISTORY OF INDIANA FROM ITS EXPLORATION TO 1922 BY LOGAN ESAREY, Ph. D., ALSO AN ACCOUNT OF ST. JOSEPH COUNTY FROM ITS ORGANIZATION EDITED BY JOHN B. STOLL (Volume III). "BIOGRAPHICAL", published in Dayton, Ohio by Dayton Historical Publishing Co., 1923, page 187-188. Norman Adler, the president of the Adler Brothers Clothing Company, was born in the town where he conducts his business, South Bend, Indiana, March 23, 1890, and is the son of Moses and Carrie (Goldsmith) Adler. His father, Moses, was born in Germany in 1851, and immigrated to the United States in the year 1880 with his brother Samuel, who also located in South Bend. In fact they were both employed by the same firm, Moses Livingston Clothing company, where they labored until 1884. In fact year they opened a business of their own, under the name of Adler Brothers, which today is one of the oldest and best known in Northern Indiana. Mose Adler passed away in the year 1892, having lived a happy and useful life, making many friends in his adopted city. Samuel Adler, his brother, before his death in 1921, became President of the Union Trust Company of South Bend, and was one of the most prominent business men of the city, his loss being keenly felt. Norman Adler's moth! er, the wife of Moses, was a native of Aurora, Illinois, where her parents were well known. Norman was educated in the public schools of his native city including the high school, and began his business career in the establishment of his father, Adler Brothers Clothing store, and in which in the year 1911 he bought an interest. Mr. Adler worked diligently, demonstrating his business ability, and was made vice-president shortly afterward, holding this position until 1921, when he was made Presdient. Under Norman Adler's able guidance the institution has found lucrative success, by following the principles of square-dealing instituted by the father Moses, until now the store carries a large stock, consisting of men's wear and accessories, equalled by few places in Indiana. Mr. Adler is a member of the Masonic Order, and the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks, and a popular member of the Indiana and Country Clubs. He makes his home with his mother 132 Scott street, S! outh Bend, Indiana, and is still in the prime of life.
