Muncie Glass Notes.

 

MUNCIE, IND., Nov. 26. - A few items from the industrial parts of the Magic City may possibly be of interest to the readers of your valuable paper. The glass industry, of course, is the most prominent industry here, and every factory is running full time except the window houses. I understand fire has been placed in the Hart and Over window tanks, and preparations are being made to start on Dec. 15. This undoubtedly will be good news for the boys who for the past month have been putting in their time searching the brush piles of the surrounding country for quail and cotton tail.

George Moore, of Ball Bros., is on the sick list with a case of boils on his arm.

Maurice Lloyd has departed to accept a gathering job on a paste mold shop at Alexandria. - T. J. McElherron has been called to Alexandria on executive business.

Bro. George Roberts has returned from the conference committee and is again pulling the leaver at Hemingrays.

Wm. Bartlett, formerly of Dunkirk, is gathering lamp feet at the Hemingray, and Joe Wilbert is a new addition to the force at the same place.

The grand ball to be given by the Happy Home Fishing Club, of Ball Bros., on Dec. 15, will undoubtedly be a grand success, judging from the committee of arrangements, which is as follows: John Linehan, James Walters, John Hukill, and Joseph McDole.

The resignation of W. J. Smith, of the A. F. G. W. U., appearing in one of the morning papers the other day, brought out many inquires from the flints throughout the city, and has got them all to don their thinking caps as to who will be the next president. - BRODY.
