The Chieftain has always in season
and out of season urged the improve
ment of all the roads leading into
Vinita and the building of substantial
bridges over the streams. This mas
been done in the interest of the whole
community in both city and country
and for the good of every business in
the town without distinction. The paw
ing Of the streets and the construc-
ton of miles and miles of granitoid
side walks coupled with road improve
ment on the outside has become a
valuable asset to yinita. This sort of
improvement and this manifestation of
public spirit cannot be treated as a
joke.

Those who see nothing but disaster
to Eastern Oklahoma in the loss of
taxes on Cherokee homesteads over
look the fact that of the five thousand
allotments to the Too Late" babies
will bring in large amount of taxable
land. All these new allotments made
to those of less than half Indian blood
will be Immediately taxable with the
exception of homestead of an aver
age of 30 acres which will in large
measure Offset the other loss.

Doomed to reaction as an advancing
pendulum is doomed to retrace its
cycle, as a spring time freshet bears
onward the driftwood in its path, the
influence of this dear old school is in
every heart. The women who have
grown from girldhood to womanhood
within its walls are the mothers of the
voters of this grand commonwealth
Our fOrefathers buildcd better than
they knew The women have been
properly trained for the duties, the re-
sponsibilities, the realities of life the
men have furnished the brain and the
intellect of a new state. No, Not as
species doomed to extinction; we
are on the threshold of new life. an
era excelling all others at this stage
of Cherokee history, endowed with
attributes to enjoy its beauty, its
grandeur, its sublimity. What bless
ing. Sucn life at this time We can
not prize too highly. The opportuni-
ties are before us but not less great
its responsibilities. May the influence
of our dear old Alma Mater guide the
destiny of our people and in the COM
ing years flow down the stream OF
time, enriching its banks and increas-
ing a volume until lost in the remote
future with feeling of thankfulness
that the Cherokee National Female
Seminary was the creation of their
forefathers and the pride of their
hearts.
