1920s
- 1920–1933Prohibition's places: no room named — the dry answer predates the law by a generation
No Prohibition room of this town is named in the record reached, and the pointer is the article: the 1920–33 record — the Gazette -era press and the court record at published strength reachable online…
- 1921Founded 1921: the library dates itself
The library's bylaws carry its own founding date in their mission statement: "The New Carlisle-Olive Township Public Library was founded in 1921."
- 1921Before the public library: the collections, seated as institutions or printed absent
The class therefore closes at its true size: three forms absent at institution strength, one statutory question open — the public library of 1921 begins this ground's library record, and everything before it is a schoolroom, a lodge room or a family's shelf.
- 1921–2002Eighty-one years on Michigan Street, and the building's second life
From its completion in 1921 until the move of 2002, the whole of this library's life happened in the one building at 124 East Michigan Street, on the town's main street in the middle of the historic business block: the Depression, the war years, the reciprocal-borrowing era, and the whole second half of the century…
- 1921–2026The Gold Star recount: the First World War roll re-counted, the Second's method stated
The method: the 1921 Indiana Gold Star Honor Roll's St. Joseph County section was read for men born at New Carlisle, and the yield checked name by name against the second carrier — the cemetery, sketch and service record as the banked set holds it.
- 1921–2026The directors: the line to its current holder, with its two spans named
Between the ends, two spans stand expressly unreached and are banked here again with their instruments: 1921–2004 (GAP-NC-LIB-2), the directorship from the Carnegie founding to the modern building, whose settler is the State Board of Accounts' schedules of officials read across the century…
- 1925The Death Crossing: four tracks at grade, and the cure
The completion is dated two ways in the record and both print: the survey account drawn from the Association's map gives the realignment as completed in 1925, while the same survey tradition's narrative and the Michigan Road survey give the straight road as running until 1926.
- 1926–2026Bendix Woods: the proving ground's gift, and the largest living sign
The county's park system begins three miles south of town, in a forest planted to spell a name: in 1926 the Studebaker Corporation developed its 800-acre proving ground on this ground, clubhouse and all — the industrial course is the Businesses leg's…
- 1927Open question: Stoll's account, 1923 or 1927
The question: stated whole in the Stoll article in Part One: the state library's guide dates the county account 1923, inside volume III of Esarey's History of Indiana ; the district nomination's bibliography dates the Esarey volume, from Dayton, Ohio, 1927 — and the two records give the work two different titles besides.
- 1929The licensing beats: the driver's license comes to Olive Township
The vehicle was licensed a generation before the driver was: Indiana's first law governing the licensing of drivers is the Act of March 13, 1929, chapter 162…
- 1929–1963The Depression test, and the end — absorbed, December 1963
The town's one bank came through the bank holiday licensed and kept its charter for another three decades; there is no 1929–34 failure in New Carlisle to record, and that negative is printed at the strength of the licensing lists.
