PoRcUpINE, s. d., Feb. IL.
To the Editor OF the Enterprise:
(This morning the mercury was
frozen, probably somewhere from
so to 20 degrees below zero. AZ
ter sun shining all day at 1890 p.
m. register shows 20 degrees be-
low. ....s,
There are three kinds of Gov
ernment Indian Schools, and
two others where Indian edu-
cation is carried OH by contract.
First, and by far the most impor-
tant factor in Indian civilization,
is the Day School, in which the
Indian child is brought in contact
with civilization and civilized
methods, ways, etc. In these
Day Schools are two employees,
teacher and housekeeper. The
work of the teacher consists of
text book work and instructing
the boys in industrial work. This
consists in cutting wood, keeping
grounds, fences, etc. in repair, in
gardening and shop work. House.
Keepers work consists Of teaching
the girls housewifery, such as
cooking, baking, cutting and fit
ting garments, and repairing same.
These Day Schools are located
in the different camps scattered
over the reservations. Families
of employees are sometimes sepa-
rated from all intercourse with
whites for months at a time.
Questions will naturally arise.
DO the employees ever 30 insane
under such conditions? Answer,
once in a while. Do employees
ever get lonesome and homesick2
How could they with all this pile
of work before them?. In these
Day Schools the child attends
from 9 to 4 the same as at public
schools, going home at night and
carrying maybe ever so little, yet
something Of civilization home
with him. 1t will readily he seen
that any system that brings the
Indian home into contact daily
with the ways of civilization must
make for civilization. Often when
young child who has older broth
ers or sisters in school, first starts
to school he knows something of
the English language having
learned it from elders. This is II
decided advantage. 1t seems
very difficult for an Indian child
to learn English. A MONDAY
lunch consisting of bread, beans,
bacon, coffee and generally some
molasses or fruit is furnished.
This lunch is prepared by the In.
dian girls under the supervision
of the housekeeper. Clothing is
supplied both sexes through the
school, This gives employees
chance to keep them clean nnd
neat. Soap, the most important.
article of commerce in Inulan CIV
ilization, ls supplied plentifully
An Indian policeman is detailed
to visit these schools us u power
full lever to promote regularity of
attendance. 1t is seldom now that

HOW PARIsiANs WORK.
Hours Which Would Hardly DO foi
Yhsa Can,t,y

Hours Which Would Hardly DO for
This Country.
One of the features of street life In
Paris which strikes the American visit
or with wonder, says the Chicago
News, is the extraordinary number Of
men of leisure TO be seen at all hours
of the day, lounging and chatting in the
c"fes. The fact is that many of them
are employees of one kind or another,
but their hours Of labor are very differ.
ent from those that prevail In America.
The young French clerk or bcOkkeeper
would throw up his position, even
though such an act meant bread and
water for years to come, IL his en-
ployer dared to import what are be-
coming known on the continent as
american methods"
The Paris clerk wants to come down
TO his work certainly not earlier than
8 O'clock-it is oftener 10 that finds him
before his desk-and IL his two hours
at noon are abridged by the smallest
quarter hour. sulkiness and surliness
are the sequel. In positions just a
in at 10, lunch from noon to any hour
they please, and never stay later than
; o'clock at their offices. The cafes
are full at all hours of the day with
prosperous men whose conversation
shows them to be engaged in what even
the blue bIooded Frenehman is begin
ming to mention respectfully as la COM
merce" These "merchants''-eyery
business man in Paris is a merchant"
Illuminate over their affairs in the
shade OF a cafe awning instead OF be-
hind the forbidding railing OF a private
office
Immaculate boots. spotless linen and
highly polished top hat--all proclaim
that the men do not by any means give
all their time TO business Even in
tile large department stores such a
thing as n clerk working overtime or
curtailing his midday meal for any
purpose whatsoever has never been
heard of. In the store clerks and ac-
countants are obliged to attend to their
monotonous but never hurried duties.
The moment a certain gong strikes
they don their glossy high hats, change
their short coats for the courtly length
required on the bouieyards and imme-
diately seek their favorite restaurant
or cafe, where they become gentlemen
of leisure, RENTERS" and talk OF POI
litical affairs or the last salon with
highly judicial air and critical eye, as
If there We're not yards Of ribbon and
silk waiting fer their hands during the
afternoon.

American type. although 80 per cent.
dearer than English, is used in half the
display work in India printing offices,
which an Auglo-Indian publisher saws
lis hardly TO be wondered at when
each mail brings beautifully printed
prosp, fuses from America, while the
printer is hardly aware that an Eng
fish typefouhder or machine manufac.
turer exists, unless he snbscribes TO a
