A State organization of the school
boards of Minnesota has been formed.
There are similar organizations in Hi

purpose in the organization of these

THE GOOSE FEATHER.
(An American Indian song)

(An American Indian song.)
Black lake, black lake
The wild goose hid within the brakej
The string upon my bow fell loose,
The arrow slipped aud missed the goose,
He heard my step and few Rwayi
I found a feather where he lay.
Arrow thin. arrow thin
struck the black goose-feather in,
Black lake, black lake
A goose lies dead within the brake.
This morn his own black feather whirred
Aud sped the shaft that killed the bird.
