HOLIDAY SEASON RECALLS SCENE or
FIRST PUBLIC CHRISTMAS TREE EYER
STAGED IN ChICKASHA 81 YEARS AGO

ton IN his statement, Dr.. claAton
says:
Teachers and school officials, and
the children in the schools as we'll,
can help the government with the
fourteenth census OF the United
States, which begins January 2, 1920,
~ making clear to all the people in
the community how important The
census work is.
"The enumeration of the population
during a census Of the United
States always presents numerous dif-
flcGlties-am among them apprehension
on the part Of the people, particularly
those Of foreign birth or extraction,
that their answers to the ouuniera-
TORS questions will cause increased
taxation, legal entanglements o. oth-
er consequences injurious TO theiI
welfare. The schools can assist ma.
tefia'ly in quictiag such unIounded
fears and at the same time acquaint
all persons with the main qucsci )ns
included in the census schedules.
at is therefore, earnestly hoped
that school teachers will see the op-
portunity presented them as public
servants who come in contact with
large numbers Of people to correct
any erroneous opinions about the
census which they may hear. It is
no less earnestly hoped that school
children will convey to their homes
the information that taking the cen
sus is a gigantic task that can only
be successfully carried out if all the
people co-operate by giving the cen
sus enumerator correct and complete
answers to all questions"
A special circular for the use of
schools has been prepared by the
census bureau and will be distributed
o teachers in the larger cities.

ton Of room, but the structure
that housed Chickasha's first cere-
monies for Christmas still stands
and does duty as church.

was hardly a year old All denomi-

structure was, put down in October,
1892. 1t was the first building erected
in Washington. The site was picked

also laid the corner stone.
The building was first occupied by
President John Adams, during the
summer of 1900. 1t is two stories and
