Christian Endsavor Among Indians


When DR. Clark was In Spokane.
Wash, on his way home from India
he was visited by Peter F. Corbett. a
highly educated Nez Perez Indian,
who is prominent among the ranchers
of northern Idaho and is Identified
with the state bank of Kamiah-
He told DR.. Clark that more than
500 Indians on the Neg Perez reserva-
tion belong to the Christian Endeavor
society. In the town of Kamlah there
are ninety five members. A peculiar
feature Of the situation is that the
members almost all are the older peo-
pie of the tribe. There are six Pres
byterian churches on the reservation.
