The Penobsoot Indians.

The Penobscot tribe is a good many wears
in advance of the Passamaquoddy m civiliza-
ton. owing perhaps to their being nearer
the settled portion Of the State, and the
work being done among them by the Catho-
lie priest and the two sisters who care for
their education is calculated to have a
marked effect upon their future. On the
day the tribe were visited. thirty children
were in the school, and these were examined
in reading arithmetic and spelling upon the
blackboard, in all of which the pupils ac-
quilted themselves better than was expected
BY anybody present. The most advanced
class is working in percentage in Robinson's 5
arithmetic, and though they sometimes ex-
press themselves slowly, on account of their
slight command Of the English language.
their actions show that they understand the
work. The school house, the church, and
everything under the care Of the sisters, is
maintained in a scrupulous state of neatness,
and this characteristic has extended to the
houses of the Indians, which are generally
quite neat outside and inside. Quite a
number of the Indians have acquired con-
siderable property, and their houses are
carpeted and furnished with good furniture,
as we'll as sewing machines. In the govern
or's house the parlor floor was covered with
Brussels carpetng. There are about 800
members of the tribe, and all give q good
deal Of attention to agriculture, being ready
TO work and raise all they can. A mission
post and church has been maintained at
OIdtown ever since about 1908, but the pop
ulation Of the town has continually decreased
from upward Of 5000 souls, in 1925, to the
small remnant Of the present day. Those
now remaining have intermarried with the
white people to such an extent that they
have become very light in complexion, and
have considerably lost the distinctive Indian
characteristics.

the stately ruff, so far as il is introduced
now, should come down at the sides and not
conceal the melting lines Of cheek and

American women rarely have stately. col

of high ruffs is being extensively recognized.

only effective in concealing graceful con

is the use Of flowers on the skirt Of the
dress, with which they have no possible re-

clustering of flowers about the neck. when
