CHRISMS TREE
A GREAT SUCCESS
With thousands of people of all
ages from the city and immediate
vicinity suroundlng the big and
beautifully decorated Christmas tree
on the public library 'front lawn,
Medtord - held its comunity Christ
mas tree observation on Sunday
evening, beginning at G o'clock. It
was by all odds the largest attomlod
and most successful Yuletide affair
ot Its kind ever held in the city.
Besides the immense crowd assem
bled about the tree, hundreds of
autoes loaded with occupants lined
the sides of tbe streets surrounding
about the public library and the city
park adjoining.
It had ben one of the mildest just-before-ChristmaB
days In local his
tory a Bpiing-llke day with sun
shlne and cloudiness alternating, but
fortunately Just beforo the hour ot
the celebration the sun disappeared
and twilight fell; enabling the bril
liantly lighted tree to show out more
impressively and making the time
seem more like Christmas eve.
The program began with tbe ring
ing of church bells to remind the sick
ones at their homes and others of
the hour for the community to as
semble and unltodly Join in an out
pouring '.of Christmas cheer, and
gratitude. The program consisted of
selections ot the D.- O.'K. K. band,
Wilson Wait, director, alternating
with Christmas carols sung by the
1,500 school children of the city un
der the direction of Miss Sherwood,
supervisor of music of the public
schools, and the high school girls'
glee club, all of whom were assem
bled close to the tree. The band fur
nished the accompaniments.
Then 1,800 candy . canes were
given out from 'the Christmas tree as
all the children marched by, and the
celebration was over in plenty of
time for the people to dress up, dine
and attend the Christmas services at
the various churches.
The money to provide the expenses
of giving tho community Christmas
tree was raised by a collection taken
among business men. The city coun
cil also donated 1 10 to the fund.
Tlio Christmas entertainment by
tho Sunday school of the First Bap
tist church Sunday, evening, was pro
sentcd to an audience that, com
plctely filled the large audience rooms
of the church. Tho . program , was
greatly enjoyed ana was pronounced
one of the best ones given by the
Sunday school. -
The entertainment was under the
charge of Mrs. Elmer Wilson."
. The primary department had a
number of pleasing features, as well
as some of tho older classes. A fine
tree was enjoyed as well as the treat
given to all of tho children.'
Noxt Sunday evening tho choir will
present a strong Christmas concert,
which will prove an attraction to all
who enjoy tho better things in mUslo.
Tho Christmas Tree will bo kopt for
this service.. A liberal offering was
mado. at tho evening sorvico Sunday
for 'Astoria. .'.:.'-"
