EDUCATION AMONG INDIANS
Many Students at Carlisle Show I
Capacity for Knowledge

That the Indian has a capacity for
higher education appears from the facts
given in the eighteenth annual report
of the Indian Industrial school at Car
isle, Pa. During the past year five stu
dents from Carlisle have attended Dick
inson college, one at Metzger college for
women. Others have attended the Car
Isle high school, some have been at the
normal schools Of the state, Drexel in
stitute at Philadelphia and the nurses
schools at Philadelphia, New Haven and
Hartford One of the pupils, after grad
uating from a New England normal
school, was employed last year in high
school In Connecticut and taught so sue
cessfuily as to be recalled and given a
permanent situation as teacher. Thus
far no difffculty has been experienced In
placing all those who showed a desire for
a higher education than is given at Car
liele, There, for manifest reasons, the
education Is Of q practical industrial
character, as best fitted to make the In
dian seN-supporting in his changed con-
dition. AS a further means OF inducing
the Indian boys and girls into civilized
family and national life the outing sys-
TEN has been adopted. During the fis-
cal year 1897 there were placed out from
the Carlisle school for longer or shorter
periods 401 boys and 319 girls. OF these
i04 boys and 101 girls remained out all
winter, attending district and other
Americanizing schools with the young
people Of the families In which they re-
sided, earning their board with their
work out of school hours. By an ex-
tension of this system the school could
economically care for 1900 children, or
about twice the present number en-
rolled The children placed with fam
lilies last year earned total of 800. 44S.3s,
of which the boys earned s13,1S5.27 and
the girls $7,26312. From these amounts
the boys saved $6.42603 and the girls
So, 3,2Ss.21. Boys and girls who have been
out a number of times have acquired
the ability to earn full wages.-New

fraud had evidently been practiced, and
that rolls had been stuffed in the cleo

county but that 1t was unable to seq

seats.

tion was voted down and the report OF
the credentials committee, seating all
delegates was adopted.
