As nature ordains.

In the wilderness about the great lakes
the Indians are tame and good natured,
and they are glad 70 get a job as hunters
and guides for parties who are going into
the woods. So much of their wild ma
ture remains with them that they prefer
life I'm the open air at small pay to steady
and remunerative employment in towns.
Occasionally one Of them will be found
who has had a liberal education, this be-
ing especially true among the Ojibways, a
good number Of whom have been schooled
at Sault Ste. Marie, Mich. Among the
western Indians accustomed to the free
dom of the plains education is only tran
sient in its influence, and a story is told Of
a chiefs son who, after being graduated
with honors at Hampton, was found in
Montana living in a wigwam and going
about in buckskin, feathers and beads
wholly Indifferent to whatever charm a
civilized life may have had for him.-New

Arrangements have been made by which the
National Headquarters for the transaction of

quarters of the GA. r. at the 9th National
Encampment at indianapolis in September
next will be under one roof. This is an limo.
walton that has already received the highest
commentator from the National and Depart
ment officers. The building in which the
Headquarters will be located is the Indiana
State House, large structure of stone and
marble surrounded by 10 acres of ground and
situated in the heart of indianapolis The
building is handsome INTELLECTUALLY and well
adapted to the purpose. The rooms are large;
the corridors extend through the building in
each direction, and are ann pie and fully lighted
and four broad starways. in addition TO the
elevators give access TO the upper floors.
The hospitality means that the official bust
ness of the State will be dropped during the
Eneampment week and the building given up
wholly TO the veterans.

many are SO isolated that it is hard to reach

they will then share with US in the benefits of
organization that has no equal on earth.
Comrades. let each one of US feel that it is our
duty to bring our old comrades of the battle
field into our Post-rooms and place upon their
breasts our badge. Write to them, send word
to them, tell them how good it is TO unite in
our fraternal, charitable and loyal work.

of reinstating suspended members, and show
on your report due June 30, 1893 every sus-
pended comrade reinstated. Those who are too
poor to pay up, remit their dues; those who can
pay renstate them 10y payment of whatever
amount the Post may determine. but get them
back into the ranks. 1t is only natural that
we should get careless and f0rgetful as we grow

have no further use for the Grand Army of

but from observation. Ii there is one man
above another who should throw his lot in
with the great rank and file, it is the Past
Commander.
We select the best manor think we do
for this position. If he happens to be weak,
make him strong; if he is strong, make him
stronger, by your presence, experience, and CO.
operation, and this will encourage other good
and worthy comrades to aspire TO the position
of Commander of the Post, who now feel
timid. There is q way TO make a man feel at
home in the chair. and there is way to crush
him. Do not let the impression prevail that
the Commander must have pure long and
well filed. If man has character and in
clinstion, elevate him and then stand Loyalty
by him.
This is one Of the many ways to arouse an
interest. Another way is TO turn out in uni
form on all proper occasions. In this line
might say that Memorial Day in Chicago will
be red letter day in the history of the Grand
Army Of Cook County. The Committee of
Arrangements will use the utmost endeavor 10
eclipse any former years.
We will have attractions and cOunter-attrac-
lions in Chicago this year, but we believe thas
no organization today stands so close to the
great patriotic heart of the American people
and the foreigners and strangers who will be
within our gates, as does the Grand Army of
the Republic. We may see clouds OH the hOri-
Zon that look Ominous. hut if we will but be

means, even our enemies will be disarmed.-
