TROM the lucrative position OF wood

Fresno. Cal, Jack T. Meyers,
known to the arts as Chief HIT EN-
Whsre-They-Ain't." has risen to that
degree OF discernment where he declares
that the only advantage Of being an
Indian In America Is the opportunity to
avoid paying poll tax. Incidentally. It
was the fighting spirit OF the old Chief
Quaqua. still lingering In the, veins OF
the young chief. that caused him to give
battle TO the tax assessor at Fresno and
engender in him a spirit Of tenacity and
bulldog courage that has made him n
big league player. histrionic artist,
dramatist and author.
While going to the public schools az
riverside. Cal. Meyers. whose Indian
name Is Tories. became a prominent
son OF Swat. and he broke up so many
high school games that he was impor-
tuned to come TO Fresno and play on a
Saturday afternoon and Sunday team
and earn his spending, money by work

TO kick the pedal on a hand press and
print the large punches OF grapes and
tho lame OF the packers on the wooden
boxes that are sent broadcast over the
land. For this he was paid something
like s12 a week.
Everything was running smoothly and
the Chief was hitting 300 at both Jobs
when the big frame-up arose that caused
him to emit a o squawk and declare
himself in favor OF the Independence of
he Indian race. The paymaster came
around n day Ind handed Meyers an
envelope which was supposed to hold
his pay. Upon opening the, said envelope
the Chief discovered ttere!n a receipt
for n poll tax which had been deducted
from his salary. That method OF coll

WINDHAM COUNTY
PLAlNFIELD
Congregational Pastor Notes Valuable
Addition to Public Library in Shape
of Catholic Encyclopedia.

Rev. Frederick s. Bamford of the
Congregational church writes:
The Benedict library of Plainfield has
recently got The Catholic Encyclope-
dia. an International Work of Refer
ence on the Constitution, Doctrine,
Discipline and History of the Catholic
Church. 1t is issued in fifteen vol
umes. quarto, ga morocco, and as a
specimen of book-naking is a perfect
production
pendous, dealing as it does with so
many phases of present day problems
in history. in biography, government
law, language, literature, science, re-
ligion, art, education, etc.
1t is entirely different from other
works of reference in that it gives t.
the world for the first time the inner
history of the Catholic church which
has hitherto been only surmised.
What that church really represents in
the world history many non-Catholic
minds have held with prejudice and
suspicion. There has been more i'm
agination than sane thinking in our
mental attitude toward the Church
Of Rome. We have recounted her
weaknesses and inconsistencies, rath-
er than her strength and virtues.
Macauly in an article to The Edin-
burg Review sets forth in a few pow
erful words the integrity and strength
of the Catholic church when all around
her was prof1igate and pagan. The his
tory of the church joins together the
two great ages of human civilization
No other human institution is left
standing which carried the mind back
to the times when the smoke of sac
rifice rose from the Pantheon and when
camelopards and tigers bounded in the
Flavian amphitheater. The proudest
royal houses are of but yesterday whei,
compared to the line of supreme pom
tiffs. That line we trace back, in an
unbroken series, from the pope who
crowned Napoleon in the 10Th century
to the pope who crowned Pepin in the
eighth. And far beyond the time of
Pepln the august dynasty extends till
it is lost in the twilight of fable
The Protestant denominations are
each treated in separate articles.
The article on Ecclesiastical History
is specially useful to the students, Civ
ing a careful synopsis of the events of
the different periods, and a full biblio-
graphy so Indispensable to our day
In dealing with general history, the
work is thoroughly up to date. Japan
is admirably treated in % RACES, Italy
As pages, Ireland 80 pages, while the
individual American states and cities
have special treatment, Kansas, for ex'
ample, receiving 16 columns and Ala
bama also 16.
The articles are noteworthy for learn
ing, and lucidity, and the wide range
of subjects dealt with should make it
a, work of peculiar interest not only to
Protestant clergy but also to the lay
mind.
The pastor of the Plainfield church
considers himself fortunate in having
such an addition to the library.
