CHiCAGO'S LIBRARY

Fiftieth Anniversary Cele.
brated on Kev Years
Day

Chicago, Jan. 2.-Chicago's publi
library, born and housed during th,
early years of its life in an abandonel
iron water tank, yesterday celebrated
its fiftieth anniversary.
The library was one Of the indirect
benefits from the Chicago fire of 1871
Charles Hughes, author of Tom
Browns School Days" assumed the
towns library had been burned and col
lected 1900 volumes in England as a
present for the city. The English do
nors of the books never knew that Chi
cago had never had library.
When the books arrived a fireproof

lected big iron water tank on top of
the city hall. The metal top was re-
placed by skylight. tables and chairs
Installed and cases built around the
walls. Here the library flourished for
several years.
Among the guests at yesterdays cole

ant of Jean Baptiste. one of Chicago's
first white settlers. Beaubien told how
he once raised chickens where Dear

Church Stays Out.
While the church officials Of Mex
leo have repeatedly stated thar they
are taking no part III the organization
of the Fascist still. in view of the
fact that the church of Rome has al
ways stood boldly out against social
ism. il is believed that nearly all Of
the leading Catholics are interested in
dividuallv with this movement. This
feature is what is worrying the Obre-
GOnistaS, who, while desiring in every
way to eliminate and combat Bolshc.
yism in Mexico. are afraid of the
Liberal element. which. since the time
Of the COmOnfOTt Constitution Of 1851,
baYe nlways stood out for the separa-
tion Of church and state. The Car
rama 1917 Constitution went even
further when Obrcgon personally head
ed fine Liberal members Of the Con-
StitutiOnal Convention. which wrote
Article 2 into the Carran=a Conetitu-
ton, providing for laical education
even in private schools. and prohibit
ing religions of any denomination from
establishing or conducting private
schools although this last feature has
not been enforced, and providing for
only Mexican clergy and preachers to
preach the gospel in Mexico.
Watching Two Movements.
Were it not for the religious feature
OF the Fascist movement. injected in
purposely by the socialists or existing
as a matter of protection for the

Are Preparing Essays on Sub
ject of immigration.

school children in every section of
the country are busy preparing es-
says for entry in the second animal

lean Legion. Last year more than
oo'UOO participated in the contest
which was won by All Sing Ching. a
hawaiian youth of Chinese extrac-

be even greater.
The subject announced this year is

should be excluded over a fixed period
Of years.
The contest is held in conformity
with the Legion's plan for further
Rnce of Americanization through edu-
cation, and is under direction of the
Americanism commission of the or
ganization. Interest in national cues
tions among children. believe leaders
OF the Legion, will become one of the
vitalizing forces for the development
OF Americanism. The success of the
1922 contest is an apparent example
OF this, according to the Legion.
Taking into consideration the sue
cess of the first years contest" said
Garland w. Powell director of the
Americanism Commission Of the
American Legion, sit is conservative
to estimate that 100000 essays will be
submitted in the present contest. This
means that a quarter of a million
coming citizens of America will be en-
gagged for a period of time on a prob
lem of vital concern to the nation.
The 1922 contest started after the
close of schools for the summer vaca-
ton, and $4,000 competed in it."
National awards for the three best
essays will be made in the form OF
scholarships in colleges and UNIVERSE

awards is: First, $3.50; second, $780,
third, $3.50. In addition to the nation

as judges.
All essays will be restricted to 500
words. Thought, style, originality Of
subject treatment, in the order named,
are to be the basic consideration for
awards, with spelling and penmanship
also to be considered in the finality.
