WSV private iubierlptlons toward i rhlch many ot descendants ot lie old French settlers are contrlb- ting. David 0. Thomas, county superln- ondent of highways, Is at the bead t. the movement. plans Include the return to Cshokla the old Cahokla court louse, which is now In Jackson 'ark, Chicago, an'd the building ot rnanicntal walks, drives and 'seats.

Vhen completed the park will be rossed by two state bond Issue oads, routes 10 and 3, and an In- erurban line will stop nt one side. One ot the most Interesting build- ngs In tho park will bo the old Family church which was milt In 1708 and which is probably ho first church building ever erected In the state, that is still slanting. At the time the church was built the mission which built It was already 100 years old. having been established In 1698. The original crucifix used by the may be as old as the mission itself, still In front ot the church.

Be- lilnd the church Is the old priest's home, which was built a short time later. The old house, one ot the first government buildings In Illinois, was moved from Cahokla in 1898 and rebuilt, exactly as It stood, In Jackson Park, Chicago, for the Columbian Exposition. This build- Ing is to be returned to Its original site and preserved at) an historic memorial. The home ot Nicholas Jarrot, -one ot the earliest French residents ot Cahokla, will also be preserved In the park. Jarrot, who at one time was one ot the leading citizens ot the state, built a fine home ot colonial brick in which many important and impressive tunctlons were held.

LaFayette was entertained In Jarrot's home on his visit to Illinois approximately 100 years ago, and the home was the center ot the social life of the settlement. A large tract of land adjoining the original town on the north, has been obtained and will be made Into an ornamental park. Native trees, shrubs, vines and tlowers will be used in preserving the broad, flat curving lines of the prairies. Old Cahokla once was a river town, but reclamation work, carried on In the early French days, pushed back the river and it is now approximately a mile and one-half from the river. The French families which now occupy the farms ot their ancestors are successful truck farmers.

ot the acres that will be converted into park are now covered with cabbage, onion, tomato plants and with melon vines. The park will form a rough triangle with Houte 3 at tho side of tho bnse, an Intemr- ban lino on tho oast side nnd First street the south'Ride. Route 11 will blaect the park.
