TO the ground from his wagon seat IN
a runaway last fall. A. z. Anderson, a
farmer at Atwater, Mimi. remained an
invalid long after slight bruise on his
right side had healed and disappeared.
He consulted local physicians without
avail There was nothing wrong with
him as far as they could see.
After suffering for months he came
to Luther hospital and after he was
examined DR.. Owen McKeon operated
on the place where the bruise had
been. He found an abscess. which had
involved a large portion OF the liver,
and inside was a little splinter Of

l6 INDIANS INVENT DIVORCE

Tear Up Marriage Certificates and
Thinking They Arc Free, Be-

KLAMATH FALLS, Ore. April 19.-
Possessed OF a belief through reason
ing OF their own that the destruction
of marriage certificate constitutes
decree of divorce. and acting upon
that belief landed sixteen Indians from
the Klamath reservation before the
federal court at Portland. The red
skin bigamists will probably hear from
the grand jury.
Since the issuing OF trust deeds TO
the Indians for their allotments the
redskins, under the state law, and all
OF them marrying, have complied with
the statutes by securing marriage
licenses. In the matter OF separation
they deemed It only necessary for
them to tear up the marriage certifi'
cate In order to divorce themselves
from the one they married and take
another wife who happened to appeal
to them more strongly.

school until she reaches her sixteenth

harm comes to a girl before she reaches
her sixteenth birthday. So if the girl
can be kept in school and out of the
factory until her sixteenth year l think
the serious problem of the girl would
be solved and all the evils would be
avoided On the other hand, 1 think
a great deal of the delinquency of the
girl is caused through ignorance and
the home surroundings. l believe wo-
men should do everything they can to
enlighten the girls of their community.
l believe. also. good women should have
the opportunity of gathering girls
around them and talking to those girls
found proving the streets. The girls
should be taught about the correct po-
sition of young men towards them and
the rights and privileges these young
men have. l believe the pulpit aid

ton of public sentiment I believe that
If every woman would take 1t as duty

the women would band themselves to-
gether in body as teachers for young
girls from the age of II to 16 to give
lessons in cooking and household du-
ties there would not be so many house,
wives looking for domestic help, as
girls so taught would be more readily
secured This may seem harsh and
wrong to the girl, but 1t is important,
and whatever Is accomplished along
these lines must be brought by practi-
cal education and endeavor, which will
bring the greatest possible happiness
and usefulness worthy of the considera-
tion of all men and women with the
highest regard for posterity. This can
be done most effectively through our
schools and the colleges of our state.
and this must be our moral obligation

Heart toHeart

A GROSS LIBEL.
BY EEWEN A. NYE.

A GROSS LIBEL.
Hurrah for the United States,
/ have grown tired Of the talk about
this country being purely mercenary,
without Ideals and ''worshiping the
almighty dollar
1t is not true.
Taken by and large. human nature is
much the same everywhere. People
are made of like putty. And all
people of all countries like money.
We are a young people.
We have not the leisure to cultivate
ourselves along certain lines. We may
lack somewhat of the finer sensibili-
ties that go with centuries of culture.
But
We are the most unselfsh people
now on earth.
Nowhere else will you find so large
proportion Of good people who give
of their time and money to make the
race better.
Nowhere.
If you have travelled in England or
on the continent you must have dis
covered that at heart the average Eu-
ropean is grossly avaricious. He will
use deception and stoop to methods an
American would scorn in order to get
your money.
And SO of the east.
The people Of the orient do not talk
money as we do, but they think money
and act money. They are subtle.
They know how to scheme and keep
their mouths closed
The oriental will do almost anything
for money.
We have our money grubbers and
money grabbers. A part of our people
are selfish and self conferred.
Nevertheless the great mass of
Americans are the most generous, the
most self denying. the kindest hearted
people in the whole world.
Nowhere else will you find so many
institutions devoted to the succor of
the helpless and unfortunate. No
where else Is so much money given to
philanthropy. Nowhere else are to be
| found SO many liberal hearted, kindly
and considerate men and women.
| Nowhere.
| This is not Fourth of July speech.
1t is a vent for righteous resentment
| against the oft repeated untruth that
Americans have no God but the dol
| lar
