For Other Indians.

Secretary of the Interior Ballinger
has submitted to congress an estimate
of $4,000 for the purchase of imple-
ments. animals and other equipment
for the Indians on the Tongue river
reservation. to enable them tn engage
in agricultural pursuits on the reser-
walton. He asks that the appropria-
tion be made available Immediately
and that 1t be re-approprlated 10 the
Indians for the next six years. and
he reimbursable to the government.
Mr.. Ballingcr says that the recent
appropriation of &25. 900 to the Indians
on the Fort Belknap reservation has
proven so successful that similar aid
should be extended to the other reser-
vations as quickly as the Indians set
tie on their allotments. These ap-
propriations. he says. encourages ag-
ricultural enterprise among the In
dians, rapidly ciyilizes them. protects
them from excessive prices for the
farm materials and provides expert
advice by the government.

AN OLD ENGLISH RIDDLE.

Dear Daddy Jim:-Here l come
for the first time. 1 have blue eyes,
light hair, fair complexion. Papa
takes The Jeffersonian, and like to
read the children's page fine. like
to read the Sunny South Brotherhood
also. I think Daddy Jim wants let
ter just like this to put in the waste
basket. Now I will ask some riddles:
I went down to London Bridge and
there I met my brother; he had
rings, he had jewels, and he had
many pretty things; he had a cat
with nine tails, a Ratchet and three
nails; whip Jack, spur Tom, blow the
bellows, old man; throw rick,
throw reel, throw an old spinning
wheel; sheep shanks, marrow bone,
such riddle never known Why is
smile the longest word in the Eng
lish language? To those who an
swer these riddles will send a pretty
postcard. I will close with much
love to Daddy Jim and the Club

see fit.

please tell us what it is?-Daddy

NO ROYAL ROAD.

Dear Daddy Jim:-I can no longer
resist the temptation of writing to
your valuable paper. AS others have
already said, cannot speak in high
enough terms for The Jeffersonian.
Neither am I at all gifted in oratory,
so, therefore, I can't find words that
are adequate to express my gratitude
to the kind editor who was SO con-
siderate as to give us page. 1t is
very great help to us girls to read
each others sentiments and compare
them with our own. I don't know
any riddles, so will ask a question:
Which should secure the best educa-
ton, a boy or girl, or should both
have equal advantages? For myself,
l think they should have equal adj
vantages, and if given these, will
prove which is the most worthy.
Every one should get an education
that they would not be ashamed of.
If your parents are not able to send
you to school, send yourself. Many
do not try to get an education just
because there are parents who are
not able to rig them up and send
them off to some big city school and
pay from ten to twelve dollars per
month for their board. Such nom
sense! Nearly all the small towns
have good schools, and am sure you
live near enough to one to either
walk or ride; and would not that be
