In one of the biggest markdowns in retailing history, Kmart's actual value is estimated at only 38 cents to 45 cents on the dollar, according to a liquidation analysis of company assets commissioned by management.
And beginning in 2005, Kmart estimates, it will have to spend $100 million to $200 million a year to make up a deficit in its employee pension plan. The total owed: about $900 million.
Nevertheless, management submitted a comprehensive reorganization plan last week in federal bankruptcy court in Chicago that outlines a return to profitability within one year after a decade of decline.
In the reorganization plan, management set aggressive financial targets with the goal of $1.3 billion in annual pretax earnings by 2007 based on only "modest" increases in store sales but significantly higher margins. The plan is subject to bankruptcy court approval at a Feb. 25 hearing.
In part, the higher margins would be achieved by eliminating hundreds of low-performing products while emphasizing more profitable exclusive brands such as Joe Boxer, Martha Stewart Everyday and Thalia. Kmart also plans to sell three company airplanes and streamline managerial ranks by the time it emerges from bankruptcy court protection in April.
The court approved two actions Tuesday: closing 316 stores and borrowing $2 billion from a syndicate of banks for the exit from bankruptcy protection, to replace its Chapter 11 financing. The closings, which will cost about $300 million, will bring total store closings since the filing to more than 600, leaving about 1,500 stores, and will raise the total layoffs to about 67,000.
Even then, the company will have one of the USA's largest retail presences. And management is moving aggressively with a "store of the future" concept emphasizing new signs, a new color scheme, wider aisles and better lighting.
In what constitutes a large show of confidence in the reorganized company, two big investors, ESL Investments and Third Avenue Trust, plan to pour $153.4 million of new money into Kmart.
If asked, the investors would add up to $60 million more for a note convertible to stock, Kmart says. Should the investment firms convert all their debt to equity, they would own up to 50% of the reorganized company.
Scott Wendelin, chief executive of Prospect Financial Advisors, a management-consulting firm, says the reorganization plan "shows tremendous confidence in their ability to turn Kmart around."
Former Kmart shareholders would be wiped out in the reorganization, although they stand to collect up to 2.5% of any legal claims the company pursues against former managers accused of misconduct in an internal investigation. The FBI, a federal grand jury and securities regulators also are investigating.
Kmart nearly ran out of cash during the 2001 holidays but emerged from the 2002 holidays with no cash-flow problems, executives say.
Executive Vice President Ron Hutchison, Kmart's chief restructuring officer, says, "We've stabilized the liquidity, we're stabilizing the trade, and now we really need to get out of bankruptcy as rapidly as we can. ... We need to have management totally focused on the business and quite frankly to stop spending $10 million a month on (bankruptcy fees) while we're in."

The purpose of this project is to help fifth grade students better
understand American history through music. Specific songs related to the American Revolutionary War, the Erie Canal, the American labor movement,and the push for women's suffrage have been assigned to students.
Students are expected to study and research these songs and determine how
they relate to the event that they were written about.
This project supports many aspects of the New York State Fifth Grade Social Studies curriculum. These include content focuses on American government, the Revolutionary War, American economics, and civic responsibility. The students are comparing and contrasting these songs with other information found on databases, magazines, and books, and making inferences about what is reflected in these scores. Through this they are able to determine cause and effect relationships, decipher fact from opinion, and determine event chronology.

Three years after winning the Whitney Handicap (gr. I), Tracy Farmer's Commentator returns to Saratoga's richest race for handicap horses as the most accomplished of the 11 entered in the July 26 fixture.
Trained by Nick Zito, who has probably had to manage the 7-year-old gelding as closely as any other in his Hall of Fame career, Commentator is the 120-pound high weight in the 1 1/8-mile main track attraction.
"He gets older but keeps coming up at a high level," Zito said. "He has his issues, but we have learned to space out his races and give him the time he needs. When he gets the time he needs, he usually comes up with his race. That's all we ever ask: for Commentator to be Commentator."
The $750,000 Whitney is one of four graded stakes on the Saratoga card that are part of the Breeders' Cup Championships' "Win and You're In" series. The Whitney winner automatically qualifies for the Breeders' Cup Classic Powered by Dodge (gr. I) at Santa Anita in October. Saturday's stakes will be televised live by ABC from 4 to 6 p.m. Eastern.
The front-running Commentator will be making his 19th career start, of which he has won 11 while earning $1,091,936. The New York-bred son of Distorted Humor has won three of five starts at The Spa, but none since the '05 Whitney, when he led all the way and held off eventual Horse of the Year Saint Liam by a neck in a determined effort. The chestnut was shortened up to one-turn races shortly after that and the nine furlongs of the Whitney loom as a question mark.
Commentator has ran just 10 times since his Whitney victory. He turned in a couple of resounding victories this year, taking a one-mile optional claiming event at Gulfstream Park by 14 lengths in January and following that with a 13 1/2-length triumph in the seven-furlong Richter Scale (gr. II) six weeks later. That led to a start in the Metropolitan Handicap (gr. I) at one mile at Belmont Park May 26, his last race, where he yielded late to the charging Divine Park and finished second by two lengths.
Should Commentator win, he would become the second-oldest horse to take the prestigious race. Five-time Horse of the Year Kelso is the oldest horse to win the Whitney and he did that in 1965, when at the age of 8, he won the race for the second time. He'll break from the rail with john Velazquez in the irons.
Fox Hill Farms' Solar Flare, a 4-year-old Argentina-bred son of 1991 Hopeful (gr. I) winner Salt Lake, joined trainer Larry Jones' stable earlier this year. After winning his American debut at Delaware Park June 3, he came back about three weeks later to post a sharp second in Belmont's Suburban Handicap (gr. I), finishing a half-length behind Frost Giant.
"It took him so long to come to my barn, I thought they rode him up from Argentina," Jones said. "It took him a while to get used to the North American way of doing things, but you can see that he turned out to be a very good student, and he is not quite a full 4-year-old."
Among the horses he beat in the Suburban was the 6-5 favorite, A.P. Arrow, who ran sixth in a dull effort in his first start since a fourth-place finish in the Dubai World Cup (UAE-I) for Todd Pletcher. The 6-year-old A.P. Arrow is looking to reclaim the form that saw him win the Clark Handicap (gr. II) at Churchill Downs in November.
Pletcher also starts grade II winner Cowtown Cat.
There does not appear to be much speed in the field but one that is likely to go with Commentator is the Patrick Kelly-trained Tasteyville, who comes off a second-place finish in the muddy Tom Fool Handicap (gr. II) at Belmont July 4. Kelly would love an off-track for his 5-year-old With Approval gelding who also won Aqueduct's Sport Page Handicap (gr. III) by more than nine lengths on sloppy going last fall.
Two-time grade I winner Student Council, trained by Steve Asmussen, ran third in the Hollywood Gold Cup (gr. I) last month after capturing the Pimlico Special (gr. I) May 16.
The field also includes third-place Suburban finisher Rising Moon, Salvator Mile (gr. III) winner Notional and Grasshopper, runner-up to Street Sense in last year's Travers (gr. I). Allen Jerkens entered Merchant Marine, who flattened out in the Suburban and finished fifth.
Trainer John Kimmel is running an extremely fresh Timber Reserve, who has had just one start since winning the 2007 Pennsylvania Derby (gr. II) last September. He beat one horse in the Hal's Hope (gr. III) at Gulfstream on Jan. 6.
Timber Reserve has been training well at Belmont Park and could be a factor on the lead.
"Sure, we would have liked to have had a prep, but we figure we'll use this, maybe get a race under his belt, and maybe come back in the Woodward."

text: About Liapin..... Already as a 4 year old, Richard Liapin played the trumpet in a subsidy programme of young talents in Estonia. But tagging a statue of Lenin didn't really bring him honour but a totally new personality and job. Since this mischief he tried to earn his living as a Free-Jazzer in circus cabinets, calling himself "Nepomuk Hororwitz". Trained by a contortionist, he gained the artistry of folding up. In the end he was able to turn his body into the shape of a Vodka bottle. This ability finally helped him to escape in a glove box of a Sowjet – standard- truck a couple of years later. Shortly afterwards he opened up a barber shop in the south of Germany to cut the hair of 16 wanted members of the RAF. Since then, the hairstyle is known as the famous "Terrormatte".

Cafe Rumi: Ehsan "Sam" Azizi's passion for pastry is contagious. At Cafe Rumi in Ashburn, Azizi spends hours each day creating artistic masterpieces. Using sophisticated culinary tools and the finest of ingredients, Azizi's advanced skill is apparent in each of his confections. Visible from the shop's cold case are mini cakes and 8-inch and 10-inch rounds, beautifully decorated with chocolate curls, edible 24 karat gold shavings, and glistening chocolate ganache.
With 35 years in the food industry, Azizi has spent the past 12 years focusing exclusively on catering for restaurants like Bistro 123 at Tysons Corner, the Eiffel Tower Cafe in Leesburg, the Hermitage in Clifton, and other locations in McLean, Winchester and Bethesda, Md. Azizi decided to open Cafe Rumi in November 2007, busily inventing new flavor combinations like the tangy Lemon Mango cake topped with apricot glaze.
For Azizi's wife, Marwa Azizi, Cafe Rumi is a cafe of love.
"It's like a tavern without alcohol," she says. "You can come and get drunk with love."
Marwa Azizi couldn't have described it any better. Once Sam Azizi begins to talk about his love for pastry making, it's hard not to fall in love with this art as well, and suddenly want to taste every single mini cake in the case.
All of his layer cakes, Azizi says, are to be eaten with the fork, cutting all the way through for a bite -- all of the flavors are meant to be tasted together. Azizi calls the White Chocolate Cassias a "perfect marriage" of tastes. Bittersweet black currant compliments a sweeter white chocolate mousse atop a light vanilla Genoise (a type of sponge cake). Another mind-boggling creation is his Chocolate Tea cake. Layers of Earl Grey tea chocolate cake are filled with tea flavored Bavarian milk chocolate cream. With a touch of cardamom, the taste is complicated and certainly stretches the average culinary imagination.
Born in Geneva, Switzerland, and schooled at L'Academie de Cuisine in Bethesda, Md., Azizi had the privilege of learning from some of the best French chefs in the food industry. Under the guidance of culinary greats like White House executive pastry chef Roland Mesnier, chocolatier extraordinaire Jacques Torres, and Dominique Leborgne (now deceased and former owner of Washington, D.C.'s DDE_LINK1La Palais du Chocolat DDE_LINK1), Azizi has truly become a master of the art.
Apart from Azizi's delicate cakes, Cafe Rumi offers a relaxing atmosphere for studying, meetings or parties, a lounge area with a couch and flat-screen TV, coffee drinks brewed with Kiariz beans (a slow roasted coffee from Luray), gelato, homemade danishes (yes, Azizi makes chocolate croissants, muffins and a variety of other traditional French breakfast pastries from scratch). You're hard pressed to find another Internet cafe with this kind of combination. Azizi also sells handmade chocolate candies and truffles made with chocolate from Switzerland and France.
And with the help of a sous-chef, Azizi can serve up soup, salad or sandwich plates for a savory lunch. If you ask Azizi about his chicken salad, he'll say it's "just a normal chicken salad." But this is far from what your mouth will tell you. Azizi's chicken mixture is seasoned with tarragon, roasted bell peppers and a hot dash of cayenne pepper.
For cake orders, be sure to give Azizi a couple of days notice. The price for a gourmet 10-inch cake is $45.25, with writing or additional toppings extra. Individual pastries cost $4.25, and the sandwiches run $6.95.
For more information on Cafe Rumi, visit www.caferumi.biz or call 703-729-0005. Cafe Rumi is at 44650 Waxpool Road in Ashburn. Hours are Monday-Friday, 6:30 a.m.-7 p.m., Saturday 9 a.m.-7 p.m., and Sunday 9 a.m.-4 p.m.

Under the guidance of culinary greats like White House executive pastry chef Roland Mesnier, chocolatier extraordinaire Jacques Torres, G.J. Bellouet, and Dominique Leborgne (now deceased; former owner of Washington, D.C.'s Le Palais du Chocolat) Azizi has truly become a master of the art.
For a couple of years after graduation he worked as a sous-chef at the Old Angler's Inn, a high scale French Restaurant in Great Falls area. For the next ten years Azizi worked at the Palais de Chocolat as a Pastry Chef Assistant and two more years as a Pastry Chef.
With 35 years in the food industry, Azizi started his own pastry business and spent 12 more years focusing exclusively on catering for high-end restaurants like the Tower Club and Bistro 123 at Tysons Corner; the Eiffel Tower in Leesburg, the Hermitage Inn in Clifton, and other fine restaurants in Virginia, Maryland and Washington, D.C.
Feeling an urge to move on and to expand his career, a year ago Azizi opened his own pastry/coffee shop, Café Rumi in Ashburn, where he produces a full line of high quality pastries. Azizi's advanced skills are apparent in each of his pastry items that is made from scratch without any preservatives using premium ingredients imported from France and Switzerland.
At Café Rumi, apart from gourmet pastries, Chef Azizi, offers fresh omelets for breakfast, soup, salad, and homemade sandwiches for a savory lunch and dinner. Also Azizi, serves gourmet coffee drinks, gelato and smoothies.

CDRCMule Creek State Prison
The state Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation said in a court filing last week that it has the funding to reduce its prison population in compliance with a U.S. Supreme Court ruling [PDF], but it anticipates it will meet the court's first prisoner reduction benchmark a month behind schedule.
Under AB 109 [PDF], the state law to reduce overcrowding, the corrections department will be able to reduce its prisoner population by:
- Sentencing some felons to county jails instead of prison
- Transferring to counties the responsibility for monitoring certain types of offenders after their release from prison
- Requiring prisoners serving time for parole violations to serve that time, which cannot exceed more than 180 days, in county jail instead of prison
Funding for the law is provided by AB 118, which was signed by Gov. Jerry Brown in June. AB 118 devotes 1 percentage point of the state's sales tax rate, an estimated $5 billion next fiscal year, to the Local Revenue Fund to provide grants to counties taking over responsibility for the inmates.
At the time of the Supreme Court ruling, California's prisons were at 200 percent of their intended capacity, contributing to medical and mental health care so poor it was declared unconstitutional.
The court's first benchmark orders the corrections department to lower it prisoner population to 167 percent of capacity by Dec. 27. The department says it expects to reach that benchmark by Jan. 27, 2012.
Corrections department spokesman Oscar Hidalgo said the delay is necessary to allow the department to get a better estimate of the state's prisoner population.
In a declaration in support of Wednesday's filing, Jay Atkinson, the department's acting deputy director of the Office of Research, said:
CDCR forecasts population levels by using a simulation model, which employs data trends and projected new admissions, to determine how long the new admissions will stay, the number of offenders who will be returned to prison, and how long they and the current inmates will stay. …This simulation is repeated for each individual inmate until the total population is projected. After the Fall 2011 projection is completed, staff in the Office of Research will project the impact on CDCR's population that Assembly Bill 109, the realignment legislation, will have.
The prison overcrowding law goes into effect Oct. 1, giving the corrections department time to finish its fall population projection, which will include projections related to the number of inmates the law will take out of the state's prisons.
In addition to moving inmates to county jails, the department plans to add about 10,000 beds [PDF] and plans to move inmates to prisons in other states.
Ultimately, it must reduce its prisoner population to 137.5 percent of capacity by October 2013, a reduction of 33,000 inmates.

Ask Computer Networking Questions and Get Answers ASAP
I mean that the internet connection drops when using wired devices (e.g. my desktop computers or Xbox that are all conntected to the router by ethernet cables) and when using wireless devices (i.e. laptops, tablets). So it is not a problem with wireless, it's a problem with getting a connection to the internet. That is, the problem is likely to be either poor service from my ISP or my router could be starting to go bad. Is there an easy way to determine which is the problem?
Did you run the test by Clicking on the link above where it says (Click Here).
Yes, it always says that there is no problem.
I don't know. I'll have to wait for it to happen again and report back to you.
OK. May be later today that I can get back to you.
When the connection drops (which it just did twice in the five minutes), the DSL light goes out and then starts to blink green before becoming solid green when the connection gets established again.

No School Closures Planned for Lafayette, But Officials Are Monitoring Weather
This is the official word from the Lafayette Parish School System:
"Superintendent Dr. Cooper, Assistant Superintendent Sandra Billeaudeau and others will monitor the weather impact on our schools and road conditions throughout today and the night. The only reason we would close the entire district is if we are advised by legal authorities that there are significant road closures and/or power outages. The leadership group will also assess the need to close individual schools if heating systems fail or water pipes break… For now, all schools are scheduled to open for students on Tuesday, January 7th at its regular time."
We will keep you posted on any developments.

As part of a public sector trade union campaign across Britain and Northern Ireland the NIPSA General Council, at its meeting on Friday, 20 May 2011, decided to initiate preparations for a statutory industrial action ballot of all NIPSA members employed in the public sector.
A number of trade unions, including the National Union of Teachers in Britain and PCS the trade union for UK civil servants, are currently balloting their members with a view to taking strike action on 30 June. Other public sector trade unions have indicated that they intend to ballot their members in the autumn for strike action. In Northern Ireland the Irish Congress of Trade Unions has agreed to coordinate the action of all public sector unions and it is envisaged that there will be a coordinated and concerted campaign in the autumn by public sector unions across Great Britain and Northern Ireland to defend the interests of public servants who are under severe attack as the UK Government implements its austerity programme.
The NIPSA General Council has decided that members should be balloted for industrial action on a range of issues which are having an extremely detrimental impact on the interests of every public servant.
The three headings under which NIPSA plans to progress a trade dispute are pensions, staffing cuts and pay freezes.
Reducing the Value of Pensions: The Government has already, unilaterally, changed the mechanism for uprating public service pensions from the Retail Prices Index to the Consumer Prices Index. It is estimated that this will cut the value of pensions by up to 25% over the period of payment of a pension to public servants.
Employee Contributions: The Government plans, with effect from 1 April 2012, to increase employee contributions to their pension schemes by an average of 3%. In essence this means that staff will be paying more and getting less in return.
Scheme Provisions: As a result of the report by Lord Hutton, commissioned by the government, final salary pension schemes for public servants will be abolished and replaced by a new scheme or schemes, the details of which have not been presented. The main purpose of this change is to cut the cost of public sector pensions and public servants will suffer as a result of these changes.
Throughout the public sector in Northern Ireland there have already been major reductions in staffing levels through job losses. Thousands of jobs have been lost due to a combination of the Review of Public Administration and public expenditure cutbacks. These job reductions are due to escalate in 2011 and beyond. The non replacement of jobs, voluntary and compulsory redundancies will mean members who remain at work will be expected to shoulder additional responsibilities and unacceptable work loads and pressures and represents a major threat to the health and safety of public servants.
Every NIPSA member in the public service will have been affected by the Chancellor of the Exchequers two year pay freeze announced in June 2010. This two year pay freeze is a continuation of the unacceptable pay settlements that public servants have been forced to endure for a considerable number of years. The pay freeze comes at a time when inflation is well over 5% and effectively represents a reduction each year in real take home pay. There is no information as to the plans of the Chancellor for 2012 pay and beyond but public servants cannot afford further years of pay freeze and restraint.
The General Council appreciates that many members are concerned about their future employment but would point out that "keeping ones head down" will provide no protection whatsoever. It is much more likely to be the case that there will be greater protection for public sector workers where they are prepared to stand up and actively defend their pensions, jobs and pay.
Branches are requested to convene meetings of members during June as a preparatory step in advance of any industrial action ballot in the autumn. Speakers will be available from NIPSA HQ, the General Council and Executive Committees.
If your branch requires a speaker on these issues please contact Aidan McDonnell at NIPSA HQ 028 9066 1831 or firstname.lastname@example.com.

The readers of the Chronicles, and all those interested in historical research in Oklahoma will be glad to know that the State
Historical Society has recognized the excellent work done in this great field by its former secretary, J. B. Thoburn, and
the board of directors his unanimously chosen him as Director of Research for the Society. This gives Mr. Thoburn a field
which he is eminently qualified to fill by reason of his experience with the work, his acknowledged ability as a writer and
lecturer on historical and other subjects, and his intimate acquaintance with the pioneers and pioneer history of our young
Mr. Thoburn has already to his credit, in addition to his splendid work for many years with the Historical Society, a general
history of Oklahoma, and a mass of valuable contributions to historical magazines and current periodicals and papers, and
he has the training and love for his chosen work that insures success in the wider field to which he has been assigned. Those
who are familiar with the growth and development of the Oklahoma State Historical Society know that a creditable share of
the excellent work that has resulted in its growth and expansion has been contributed by the zeal and effort of Mr. Thoburn
as its Secretary, and it will be a satisfaction to them to know that in the future his abilities and special training for
research work will not be hampered by office details but can be exercised in a larger and more fruitful field.
Articles from his pen covering many incidents of historical value from the rapidly fading pioneer era will appear from time
to time in the Chronicles, and the records and exhibit cases of the Society will be enriched as a result of his future work.
Not as a matter of pastime or recreation, but following an old time custom, that of saying a few things by way of introduction,
is the apology offered for the remarks which, we trust, will not be altogether out of place in connection with the office
to which we have been elected.
Very reluctantly we assume the duties of secretary and editor as they have to do with Chronicles of Oklahoma and the Oklahoma
Historical Society.
It is well enough to state here that the position, above referred to, came unsolicited and very unexpectedly; having a "two
man" job at Hartshorne as pastor and superintendent of Brooks Institute, which carries with it oversight of the church and
hospital, left no time for thinking of other fields wherein one might bestow labors abundant.
Seeking positions has never been a custom of my life, but I find that the habit of going where the powers that be may direct,
has become somewhat of a fixed principle of my nature.
Constitutionally we are neither an editor nor a secretary, but having had some experience in both, there may be a chance of
getting by if the general public will continue to be as lenient in the future as in the past.
The whys and wherefores of life have always been more or less of a mystery to me; and in this case, the whys that relate me
to this office have repeatedly presented themselves, demanding an answer, leaving only this as at all explanatory, "fools
sometimes rush in where angels fear to tread."
The only other possible reason, why, is my long residence in this country; having moved into Indian Territory in the year
1868, settling in old Fort Gibson, at which place father was pastor of the Methodist church, gave me a good start with the
historical places of this country.
It is reasonable to conclude that a residence of more than one-half century in the Indian country would be sufficient in years
for one of observant mind to become more or less familiar with characters, places and events that have gone into the history
of this country, all of which, ordinarily, cold be turned to good account in Chronicles of Oklahoma.
The history of any country depends on the correctness of names and dates, in the absence of which there is no history. Erroneous
statements as to names and dates may be written into the records, but all records are not history. History is truth, recorded
or un-recorded, and the worth of any station or people is largely determined by its history.
In our Chronicles of men, women and places, we shall strive to be as accurate as possible; we ask all who may be contributors
to this publication to be the same.
For several years we have been compiling data in the form of character sketches which we hope to get out in book form some
day. Some of these sketches we may use in Chronicles of Oklahoma.
It is our purpose to devote space in the magazine for character sketches and Oklahoma folklore, to which space we now ask
you to make contributions.
In article one; section two of the Constitution of the Oklahoma Historical Society, we find the purpose for which the Society
is organized: "To preserve and perpetuate the history of Oklahoma and its people; to stimulate popular interest in historical
study and research, and to promote historical knowledge generally." It is taken for granted that every intelligent citizen
of this great state has an ambition to know as much of his state's past and present history as possible; we also take for
granted that you are willing to join with us in getting together this history.
There is much interesting history in connection with the old towns of the eastern side of our state, some of which we have,
and some of which we have not; such towns as old Fort Gibson, Skullyville, Perryville, old Boggy Depot, Stonewall, Tishomingo,
Fort Towson, Stringtown, Eufaula, Atoka, Caddo and Colbert. Some of these towns, with others, have lost their identity but
the history of these places, and the characters who have lived and wrought so heroically on a rough and rugged edge of so
unpromising a civilization, as was characteristic of this western country in their day, would read like a romance.
Those responsible for the Chronicles of Oklahoma are endeavoring to make it readable and educational. In order to do this
we must have a more definite statement of our old forts, battle fields, school activities, Indian academies, pioneer
ministers along with the pioneer country school teachers, who endured many trials and tribulations in an effort to subdue
this great West so rich in possibilities. In these sketches don't fail to mention the business meal, the early day doctors,
the cattlemen, and the United States Deputy Marshals with some of the characters with whom they had to deal.
In article one, section two of the Constitution of the Historical Society, we have this language: "It shall particularly aim
to perpetuate the knowledge of the lives and deeds of the explorers and pioneers of this region, with the collectio and preservation
of typical specimens of the arts and craft of the pioneering period, the legends, traditions, histories and cultural standards
of the Indian tribes, with an appropriate collection of the handiwork of the same and also an archaeological collection illustrating
the life, customs and culture of the prehistoric peoples.
There has recently been brought into the office of the Oklahoma Historical Society an elephant's tooth, discovered in Love
County, near Lebanon. This tooth has, for no telling how many years, been resting in seclusion at that lonely spot. Few of
us ever suspected that such an animal had ever been native to this country. We have known for many year that prehistoric animals
once inhabited this country of ours but we little though that the elephant had once roamed our plains or forests.
This country is constantly giving up evidence of former inhabitants, former animals and a civilization that we had scarcely
dreamed of; we want you to help us preserve these evidences of former things and if you know of anything that would help us
in any way, we ask you to so inform us.
It will be the policy of the Oklahoma Historical Society to give notice in its columns of the death of any of our old citizens,
old pioneers and men who have been adventurers in this land of ours. If you have any such characters living in your neighborhood,
be ready to furnish this office with the facts concerning their lives so we may give it to the public.
The old characters of our country are fast passing away, and with their passing will pass some of the most important items
of history. Get these items today and mail them to us. You owe that much to the old characters and to your country.
It is the desire of those responsible for the Chronicles of Oklahoma to make it worth while to you and to the state. In order
to do this you must help us get the material that will conserve the history of your locality.
Items of interest concerning your locality are very much desired by us and if you will let us have them, we will try not to
disappoint you.
There has been lost to this community history of vast importance, history we will never be able to get hold of; there is much
in this country yet that will soon be gone; if we are to have these items we must get them now.
Any old Indian diary that you may have, will be of interest to the citizens of this state. Send them to us, we will put them
in keeping for the future citizens of this commonwealth.
The Chronicles of Oklahoma is sent to all members of the Society. Membership may be had by paying one dollar, the regular
annual dues; life membership by the payment of ten dollars.
The story of the American West is being told. That energy of the West which has entered the current of national development
is becoming known. If Oklahoma is to have recognition in the development of the United States from an historical point of
view, along with other states of the Union, she must preserve her past history.
Chronicles of Oklahoma must be an authoritative organ, or its existence will be useless; the records of the historical past
must be so accurate and complete that it will demand recognition at the hands of those for whom it has been prepared.
The writer has a letter from a very prominent citizen of Oklahoma in which he says that prior to fifty years ago there were
no postoffices in this country.
The Oklahoma Historical Society wishes to preserve the history of its pioneers, the history of men who have changed this from
a vast wilderness to its present state of prosperity. To do this it is necessary to have the cooperation of the children and
grandchildren of these old men. It is not always an easy matter to write these items of history and get them into the hands
of the proper ones; but if you will give a little time to this matter you can do a wonderful work for your state.
Our state is indebted to these old pioneers and there is no better way to pay this debt and show our appreciation than that
of perpetuating their memory in the Chronicles of Oklahoma.
One cannot overestimate the value of service rendered by the pioneers of Oklahoma, neither can we overestimate the value of
the record of these events as they picture to us of today the heroic efforts to subdue and bring into subjection this vast
country with its wonderful resources.
You can render no more valuable service to your state just now than that of helping to preserve the interesting history that
has been made by those who gave to us this present day civilization.
To have character sketches of places and noted men and women will be our aim in the management of the Chronciles of Oklahoma.
Help us in this matter.
Some good men have almost sweated blood in an effort to preserve the history of Oklahoma. Fifty years from now many of our
descendants will rise up and call them blessed. No labor of love will be more appreciated then than that which is and has
been bestowed by the men and women who have so faithfully wrought in this capacity.
