ton and Movement Was
Launched Then.
BEEN WIDELY COPIED
Cities From East to West Had ceIe-
bratIons Last Year and Num-
Der Is to be Larger This
Christmas Time.

The current issue of the American
City has devoted good deal Of
space to the community Christmas
tree, and few II any magazines this
month have failed to speak of it. 1t
has been called the most delightful
innovation OF the century, 1t Is more
than that. however. 1t Is the symbol
Of public unity and OF brotherhood.
No city torn with discussions could
bring about such celebration. 1t Is
interesting to know who and what IN
spired the various cities to set up a
tree out OF doors and to celebrate as
city. A New York woman two
years ago conceived the idea and
aided by a group of idealists, set up
the first tree. Last year hundred
cities from New York to San Fran
cisco set aloft the cleaning star on
an outdoor tree.
In Pittsburgh there was a municipal
Christmas tree committee, six Of
whom were women, appointed by the
president of the city council. In Ra-
cine, Wis, the Commercial club sum
moned the mayor, the clergymen, sup
erintenGent of the park board, the
presidents Of all the women's clubs
and others to make the initial plans.
In Syracuse, n. Y, the Consumers
league took the initiative. At Provi-
dence, r. L., the Rhode Island Con-
gress OF Mothers planned the com
munity celebration. At Altoona, Penn,
It was the Sunshine society. At Bea-
yer Falls, Penn, one man w. H.
Boyce, planned the celebration and
in large measure financed it. In
Newark, Ohio, representatives OF or
ganized labor we're the moving spirits.
Chicago's tree was planned for by the
Municipal Christmas Festival associa-.
ton, permanent organization to per-
petuate the custom.

licemen In nearly a dozen cities OF
the United States, an organized ring
of high class burglars have shared
81 100000 worth Of loot in the past

basis for Hoyne's statement is a
confession he announces he has OBJ :

Hoyne, Wexler implicated policemen
in the following cities: Chicago. New

The Permanent Tree.

Many cities have planted permanent
trees and no doubt this would be done
here II there were any place in the
down town district of the city avail
able for the purpose. Early in 1914
Henry B. Rooney Of Chicago, owner of
q forest preserve In northern Michi-
gan, offered to give Christmas trees
forty to ninety feet high to the first
100 cities asking for them for the
purpose of planting. Chicago was the
first city to apply, and planted the
tree in Lake Front park. No one can
fail to be impressed with the spirit Of
the movement. The tree draws to It
all classes and kinds of citizens,
whether rich or poor, high or low. ma
tive or foreign born. It symbolizes
and awakes in the hearts Of all a
spirit of friendship and good will; it
speaks of city loyalty and love for
the home city, but above all It brings
to the heart the story Of Bethlehem
and of the Christ child, and Of the
song the angels sang as they heralded
the coming of the prince OF peace and
the savior of the world.

TO INVESTIGATE GOLD.

Little Rock, March 24.-G. s. Rogers a geologist connected with the United States Geological Survey, will reach Ola next Saturday en route to Bluffton to make an official investi- gation of the gold field of that sec ton, in behalf of the government. Geologist Rogers was sent to Arkan- sas by the request of Congressman Jaccoway. The people of Yell county have awaited the coming of govern ment mineralogist with much inter- est, for they expect final decision from him, and the hills which are in question, will either be pronounced exceedingly valuable, or worth the price of rock thirty miles from a rail- road. Geologist Rogers will start from Plainview for the Bluffton vici- nity on Sunday afternoon or Monday morning and will in all probability be accompanied by number of peo- pie from Little Rock and the inter- ested towns of that section.
