EXERCISES AROUND COMMUNITY TREE
TO Be FEATURE OF CHRISTMAS DAY

day by individual communion, BY lone
ly worship, by great assemblings in
our churches, and in yet another way,
by coming together regardless of creed
or color out in the open. This COM
ing together means more to us as In
dividuals and more to us as a COM
munity than we sometimes think.
That thought was in the hearts of our
city officials when they again sug.
gested a Christmas service out in the
open. They knew that the spirit that
would eminate from there would build
city even healthier and happier
than our city of today.
"It takes time to understand the
miracles of the commonplace. We al
most always miss 1t until a generation
passes. II this community service
were to disappear and they were to
read about it century hence, it's So
cial outline and it's spiritual outline
would at least emerge.
May we not all come together
Christmas day at o'clock not only to
pay tribute to the life of the Christ,
but also to make possible genuine
community joy.

George II. Knollenberg was the Sec
ond child of Mr.. and Mrs. Bernhard
H. Knollenberg, pioneer residents OF
Richmond. Bernhard KnOllenberg
and David Haner came to America In
1888 to escape the militarism of Ger
many and to realize the republican
ideals in which they believed. George
Knollenberg was born December Z.
1S47, in the house that always has
been his home at the northwest corner
of South Fourth and B streets. He
attended the parish schools of ST.
Johns and ST. Pauls Lutheran church
es, and the public schools for three
years.
In the public school he came under
the influence of Miss Anna Schofeld,
who gave him a new outlook on life
and it is to her that he attributed his
later success. She awakened in him a
regard for principles that were mo-
tives in his subsequent career.
Boyhood Days.
AS boy he was small in stature
and was called the ''runt" by his
brothers and, sisters. A sister relates
that he was awkward and that his
mother expressed the belief that he
would not amount to much in life. "

efficiency"

some profit. The prophecy made by
