PUBLIC SCHOOLS CELEBRATE
washingtOn's Birthday is Observed
by Pupils One Day in
Advance.

wa~shlngton's birthday, February 20, was
celebrated in all Of the city schools yes
terday. The Buildings inside and out were
decorated with flags, and bunting and the
pupils participated In musical and literary
programs which reflected the spirit Of
patriotism. In many OF the schools dfa-
logues were given in which the participants
appeared in colonial costume. Some of the
pupils prepared original essays on the sub
ject Of Washington and his achievements.
All of the schools which did not celebrate
Lincoln's birthday, February IL, had a
"double-header'' celebration, wherein tribute
was paid to the memories of both Wash
ington and Lincoln. This was made neces-
sary ON account OF the birthdays OF these
two statesmen coming 60 close together.
A peculiarly appropriate phase OF yester-
days celebration was the taking Of contri-
buttons in the city schools for the Mckinley
memorial fund. At the last meeting Of the
Board OF Education permission was granted
the teachers to announce this contribution
in their school rooms and accept such money
from the pupils as was voluntarily advanced.
The contributions will be taken in such
a way as not to arouse any rivalry among
the various rooms or schools" said Super
'~intendent Pearse. "In most cases a paste
board box with q slit In the top is placed on
the teachers desk and the pupils are told
that they can contribute II they want to.
There is no way OF telling how much a
pupil drops in, or IL he drops In any. The
only record we will keep of the contribu-
lions will be those Of the various schools
and this will be to enable US to make a re-
port to the Mckinley Memorial association.
Teachers, of course, as well as pupils, will
be permitted to contribute to this fund"
