effecting Il settlement with the intruders
In the Cherokee nation is beyond all others

ments, and 10 return the intruders shall be
charged rsntal for the lands tenanted by
them on which the improvements have
been made. This applies the principle Of
equity 30 both sides The disputed value
amounts to about s200, 900 or $3.50, 000 One

Our national Emblem.

What plant of our splendid fora shall
we choose for a national emblem? asks
Edna Dean Proctor in the March Ladies'
Home Journal, and her answer is an inter-
esting one. at should be one which is
purely American, which is widespread, dis
tinct in character and rich in association.
The plant which fulfis these conditions in
the highest degree, and from its import
ance transcends them all, is our stately
grain, the maize-the corn. 1t is indigen-
Gus to America and peculiar to it-never a
kernel elsewhere in the world until carried
from here. 1t grows in many varieties,
from northern Canada TO southern Chilli
With its commanding height, its graceful,
curving leaves, its crown of flowers, its
silken tassels and plant husks-Nature's
choicest wrappings for her stateliest grain
and, above all, for its golden ears, true
cornucopias, symbols of abundance and
joy, it is distinguished for beauty and dig
nifty and individuality. 1t is associated
with all life on this continent. 1t was the
food, with game, of the primitive peoples
hereof the wandering tribes, the Aztecs,
the Incas-and the object of their prayers
and Thanksgiving in songs and dances and
rituals, as it is of their descendants today.
Among ourselves it is our most important
grain product, nearly equaling in value
that of all the cereals put together. Then
it lends itself with such effect to decora-
ton. Its leaves, its flowers, its tassels, its
ears, with their varied tints and forms,
makes it unrivaled for artistic use. And
always it is so unique, so purely American !!
The eagle flies for other lands, the maize is
native only of our own. Let the states
choose each what flower they will; but for
national emblem let us have the only
plant that is American enough to fifty sym
bolize us-the maize, the corn.
The arbutus and the golden rod
The heart Of the North may cheer
And the mountain laurel for Maryland
Its royal clusters rear;
And jasmine and magnolia
The crest of the South adom
But the wide Republics emblem
Is the bounteous, golden Corn"
