In 1890 a two story frame building was constructed in the Southeast part of the town on the present school site. This was Chico's forth school building and was called the "Chico Male and Female Institute." There were about 400 pupils enrolled with a number of boarding pupils from over the surrounding area. At this time this school was considered the best school in North Texas. This building was used until 1913 when it burned. The name had been changed from Chico Male and Female Institute to The Chico Public School. From the "History of Wise County-A Link With The Past"

*Tonsorial
Artist - barber -
The Tonsorial Artist - The traditional
barbers pole represents ‘Blood and Bandages’. It originates from the grizzly
days when barbers not only cut hair and shaved stubbly chins but also performed
tooth extraction, bloodletting and some surgery. A traditional barbers pole has
a brass finial representing the bleeding bowl. The bowl would have been kept at
the top of the pole when not in use. The washed but still blood stained bandages
were hung on the pole to dry. The wind whipped them around the pole giving us
the red and white candy stripes we know today.
