The Cattleman’s Pages of History W Dece
E ARE IN THE 103RD YEAR OF THE CATTLEMAN MAGAZINE. WE THOUGHT WE WOULD TAKE A few minutes each month to look back in history to fi nd the interests of cattle
raisers at the time. We have reprinted the text of these news items as they appeared in the issue. Any comments from the editor appear in brackets.
ecember 1 r 1916 In that issue, we read this “Yuletide Greetings.”
³ “What a delightful privilege it is to have this opportunity to extend to each of the 25,000 readers of The Cattleman our sincere Yuletide Greetings.
“In this issue we have tried to inject a little of the Christmas spirit, in the hope that you may forget, for a few moments at least, your business cares and worries, and again enjoy the treasured memories of childhood days, when Christmas to you perhaps meant more than it does today.
“Too often some of us look upon Christmas as only a time for children to make
merry, and we fail to reap the season’s joys. And Christmas IS for children — the children of God from one minute old to one hundred years young. “We cannot make the most of Christmas without the recognition of the kinship

We must consider the needs and desires of little children — remember the weakness and loneliness of people who are growing old, and help and encourage the unfortunates on whom success has not smiled during the years past. This do, and we will enjoy the spirit of Christmas.

³ “This year’s December cover of The Cattleman departs from the usual pre- sentation but still carries the universal theme of Christmas, as interpreted by Jerome Tiger, young Creek-Seminole of Oklahoma. Self-taught since he took up the brush just four years ago, 23-year-old Jerome has created many of the Indian tales told him by his grandfather, particularly of the infamous ‘trail of tears’ of the 1830s in which his forebears migrated to Oklahoma. On this month’s cover, Jerome paints the Christmas story as he fi rst imagined it at his mother’s knee.”
