FOREST SERVICE HOLDS
YULETIDE CELEBRATION
Santa Claus Remembers Employees
Children with Presents-History
of Eefe.

The Forest Service yesterday held its
annual Christmas celebration with a tree
for the children of the Forest Service
| employees and a little Christmas play.
The stage was set in the drafting room
of the Atlantic Building on the eighth
floor.
G. G. Anderson had charge OF the
celebration and Will c. Barnes spoke of
the Forest Service celebrations which
were started as a personal matter by
Harry c. Towers, known throughout the
service as Uncle Harry" After he died
three years ago, the annual celebration
was taken UP again as a personal mat
ter by Fred G. Plummer, geographer Of
the service. who died suddenly last sum-
mer. II then became a question as TO
whether the annual custom should
lapse, whether ii should be taken up
again by an individual in his private
capacity. or whether the Forest Service
itself should continue the custom as a
memorial to Mr.. Towers and Mr.. Plum
mer. The latter course was decided upon
and the Forest Service. through Mr..
Graves, appointed a regular Christmas
tree committee, since II was telt TO be
appropriate that a service devoted TO
forestry should take a peculiar interest
in Christmas trees.
Before Mr.. Barnes had concluded his
remarks, Santa Claus was heard in the
distance by the sound Of the bells, and
few minutes later bricks Ioosened IN
the chimney and falling into the fire in
dicated that he was having some trouble
in getting down. A pair OF booted and
fur-clad legs next appeared in the tlre-
place waving frantically. with the
help of Mr.. Barnes, Santa Clous was
squeezed down through the chimney. ap-
peared before the children, and began the
distribution of presents. Every child was
remembered with a present, some candy,
and an orange.
The committee which had the matter
in hand were as follows:
Executive committee: Albert +. Potter,
associate forester: c. A Kolb, q. q.
Anderson, chairman.
The committee in charge OF selecting
presents was composed OF Miss Barton,
Miss KimmeI, Mrs. Walter, and Miss
Stein.
The committee on tree and decorations
was composed of Messrs. Lee. Taylor,
Witherow, Walsh. Downey, Hilton, Brad |
ford, and Miss Sizer.
Santa Claus was impersonated by II. |
E. Woolley.

For a long time We have felt that
there must be some adequate remedy
against the wrongs that were openly,
aggressively and continuously perpe-
trated by the Bell interests, which were
designed eventually to end all competi-
tion. We knew that the effective remedy
was in the hands of the Federal govern
ment. At times, it seemed improbable
that we would ever get the desired ac-
tion; but from the moment 1t was di-
rected to your attention, we have had
speedy, intelligent progress which
brought to light facts and conditions
which compelled judicial condemnation.
May We also through you express to
President Wilson our appreciation of his
distinguished personal consideration Of
this controversy and the unfailing
patriotism that has characterized his at
titude thrOughout?'
President 3. G. HubbeI. of the Federal
Telephone and Telegraph Company, wrote
this letter from Buffalo, n. Y:
Il wired you this morning my con-
gratuIations on your mastertul handling
of the telephone situation. You have
done a wonderful work for public good
and are being proclaimed a hero by in
dependent telephone interests. which en-
braces in its scope more than 10000
security holders.
There is just one thing more that you
should do in this matter and that is
to accept my invitation, which 1 now
extend to you, TO be my guest at the In
dependent Telephone Association OF
America, meeting in Chicago, and make
an address at the banquet of that as
sOciation on the evening OF January T."
