The work of educating young Indi-

must confess to a feeling of doubt as to
their success with boys bearing such
names as Daniel Red Eyes and Andrew
Yellow Thunder they can at least con
sole themselves with the fact that the
correction of compositions" is more
diverting than in some Eastern schools.
The superintendent of the Lemhi Res.

has preserved proofs of his pupils
work in English, in the form of vari.
Gus essays written by the Indian boys,
and in several notes of excuse Here is
Daniel Red Eyes idea of the school in
which he is pupil:
I'VE learn how work in garden. and
cut wood, make fence and many hard
work. The girls in hous sew and wash
dress and cooking dinner. | don't like
go to school because my father he tell
me | don't want to go 10 school. That
all have to say or want to say about
a school"
Daniel had a reasonably good opinion
of himself. as this excuse. sent to his
teacher, indicates:
81 wish you excuse me this afternoon
My horse all run away yesterday even
ing and | didn't find. hunting my
horse this afternoon. Well. guess
that all toll you about. Your good boy

Rather more promising is the attitude
of young Mr.. Yellow Thunder. who ex.
preses contrition for a fault:
Dear Teacher. am sorry that | ran
away from school yesterday. but was
crazy boy. will come to school Mon
