Brief History
The first Methodist church was
built in Oakland in 1852, but Sun
day School and other services had
been conducted for twenty-three
years prior to that time. The Sun
day school centennial was cele-
brated May 5, 1929, being one hun
drcd years since it had been cstab-
lished in the home of George Loar,
south Of town.
According to the centennial his
tory at that time the town of Oak
land had not even been thought
about by the few pioneers who had
come into this region, settled here
and there, cleared sites for homes
in the wilderness and erected log
houses in which to dwell"
A few years after its organiza-
ton the Sunday School was moved
to the school house on the Nc
Carly farm and about 1910 the
first church was built near the
school. From then until 1852 when
the church was torn down and the

School was held regularly.

STATEHOOD

may very well be brought up in the Senate again and soon for luther action
 Senator Smith Of New Jersey on March 3. who vas absent from the Senate because of illness when the Alaska statehood bill was recommitted to committee by one vote. filed q motion ;o recon sider the $ 10 4 vote Later the same day the Hawaii statehood measure lost out 10 the tidelands oil bill for immediate debate. but Senate statehood friends served notice that they will press for consideration of the Hawaii bill immediately after final action isi taken on the tidelands oil legis-l lation.
 Tn filing his motion within the time limit for call to reconsider recommittal vote. Senator Smith declared: Whether we de sire to have it so or not. the Ha waiian situation is closely linked to that of Alaska. While have never been in Alaska, from ad- vices l have received from those who have been there and who have studied the situation, l feel, as in the case of Hawaii, that the citizens are entitled to statehood. am opposed to any continuing situation whereby United States citizens who desire statehood should be deprived of that status, if there are reasonable prospects that they can build a State com parable in importance and econo- mic stability with the State which at present constitute the Union. I realize Alaska has a long way to go. but I am convinced it can never make suitable progress without statehood.
 Tt is my purpose to make q motion to reconsider the vo-e taken last Wednesday on the mo- ton to reconmit the Alaska state hood bill. so that it may be on the table and before the Senate after we have taken the vote or the bill granting statehood to Hawaii. l intend to vote for state hood for Hawaii"

guest speaker. He chose as his
subject, THAT man Douglass"
and told of many little-known
facts about this historical figure.
A burst of applause greeted the
speaker at the end of his fine
oration. He was easily an orator
of the first rank.

guests present were j. A. Rogers,

Give praise where praise is
due. Last May, 1851, was up

young colored boy went up to
the window to get a ticket to
go in Che was of grammar school
age). The young lady at the
ticket window asked him why
wasn't he in school. He an
swered and said he had a head
ache. Then go home or go to
school," she said, and she did
not sell him a ticket. If we
only only had more people to take
an interest in the children. I
say hats off to her for taking
an interest in someone else's
children-and not of her own
people, either. Let's work to-
gether as one race of people.

DUTY STYLES: This Springs
fashion rage And it's so prac-
tical as well as fun to make an
item do the work Of two. We're
thinking particularly of quilted
skirt that's for lounging at home
as we'll as for formal dances.
Then there's hat we saw in the
market which has detachable
covers in different colors So
many new toppers turn inside
out to give you two different
coats The woman who likes
many changes can certainly get
them in the new versatile styles.
SUITS IN COATS CONDO:
Suits that come with coats is the
way to wear them this year. The
suits and accompanying coat are
designed expressly to go together
like beans with brown bread.
For instance, if the suit is a mar
row one, the coat is wide; if the
suit is nodded, the jacket can be
boxy or flared; and if the suit is
conservative in color, the coat is
a brilliant one. Both the suit and
coat can be worn separately but
when put together each compile
ments the other.
PLAIDS IN ABUNDANCE: No
matter the season, plaids are still
with us in abundance. Plaids are
perennial and forever youthful.
That's why we suppose they go
