and meet every difficulty unafraid and

their lives, too, up to their highest,
fullest and best. To that end | pray
that I may never NEEDLE, dictate, in

do it by giving them a chance to help
themselves; and If I can uplift or in

to say, I desire to be radiant-to radi'
ate life.-Elbert Hubbard.

Miss Barton went to Europe in
1869, and was abroad when the Fran

no time in going to Strassburg and
beginning the work Of nursing the

later to Paris and rendered assist

The American Association Of Red

Barton was chosen it's first president,

RED CROSS FOUNDER
Clara Barton Celebrates Nine
tieth Birthday Anniversary.
Falling Health of Woman Who Con
ceved Idea of Aiding Wounded
Soldiers During Civil War
Prevents Celebration.

Washington Miss Clara Barton,
famous the world over as a Red Cross
worker, reached her ninetieth birth
day anniversary Christmas day. Con-
gratulatory messages from friends and
admirers in many parts of the world
were received at the home of the
famous nurse at Glen Echo, Md, q
few miles from this city.
Friends and neighbors of Miss Bar
ton contemplated having a celebration
of her anniversary, but all plans in
this direction were abandoned be-
cause of the precarious condition Of
her health.
Miss Barton has been failing ever
since her serious illness last winter.
Of the friends who called at Glen
Echo only the most intimate were
permitted to see her.
Few women of America have had q
more active or more interesting
career than Clara Barton. She was
born in Oxford, Mass, December %,
1921, the daughter of Capt. Stephen
Barton, who fought under Gen. An
thony Wayne. In her early career she
was a school-teacher She founded a
free school at Bordentown, N. j.,
which, beginning with six pupils,
quickly grew until it numbered near
ly 600. This work she gave up to
accept place in the patent Office at
Washington, which she held until the
outbreak Of the Civil war.
After giving up her government po-
sition Miss Barton advertised in a
newspaper in Worcester, Mass, that
she would receive stores and money
for wounded soldiers at the front,
which she personally would distribute,
Her appeal was literally answered,
and she began her great relief work

awaiting her. She will never have any difficulty
in obtaining a wellpaid position in domestic serv-
ice, for the instructors at our Indian schools have
more applications than they can accept from re-
sponsible families eager to secure competent In
dian girls as household helpers. Some of the ap-
plcants suggest the possibility OF adopting
young Indian girl If one be found to fulfil ex-
pectations.
Or If the Indian girl Of the present day, upon
completing her education, elect to try for live
HOOD in some of the artistic pursuits she
seems to have advantages over her brother fully
as marked as under the circumstances above men,
toned. The Indian brave, in his native state,
does not show aptitude for any form OF artistic
handicraft unless it be the fashion1ng OF bows
and arrows. But the Indian women have tradi-
tional skill in bead work, in feather work and in
leather work and the Indian women of the south
west have for countless generations exceiled in
pottery manufacture, in rug weaving and in basket
manufacture. When an Indian girl is enabled to
use such talents in accordance with the knoWl-
edge OF modern art ideals which school educa-
ton gives her, it goes without saying that she
has ready to hand very agreeable and very re-
munerative of livelihood.
School teaching is another vocation which opens
to the educated Indian girls future that is vir-
tually closed to the redskins of the sterner sex.
There are in the United States a large and con-
stantly increasing number of Indian schools
that is primary grade schools for the education OF
the younger Indian children on the reservations
and it is coming about that almost all OF the
teachers in these schools are Indian young women
who have qualified for the work at Carlisle or
other schools and by courses in normal schools
Indeed the success OF great numbers OF these
Young Indian women school teachers in earning
their livelihood by brain work while so many OF
the Indian young men of the period must depend
upon manual labor for their earnings emphasizes
as does nothing else the change that has come
about in the status OF Indian women. 1t Is, I'M
der such circumstances, a complete reversal OF
conditions over those that obtained in the long
ago when the Indian women were compelled to
do all of the hard labor, whereas the men were
responsible only for the lighter tasks-or may
hap, devoted themselves exclusively to warfare
and the chase.
There is little doubt that explanation OF
the success which many twentieth century In

that the child will attempt to walk at an earlier
age than Is desirable From earliest ch1ldhood
the average Indian girl has been subjected to that
rigorous outdoor life which results in making
them almost perfect physically. For instance
there may be cited the method followed In giving
an Indian child bath,-a weekly event. Inc

have entered. Incidently it may be mentioned
that whatever influence civilization may exert up
on the young in whose veins courses In

all children of the wilderness and which the In
