EARLY HISTORY
Of NORTH OAK.
Land Along The Missouri Was
Cultivated by Indians Be.
fore Pilgrims Landed

Cornfelds were cultivated along the
Missouri River before the Purltans
landed at Plymouth Rock in 1920. The
Indians near this river, (Mandans, Ar
ikaras, Hidatsts, and perhaps others)
i had a good civilization, and they re-
lied upon agriculture for the major
portion Of their food. De Smet in his
government report in 1864 mentions
seeing a corn field of 1000 acres in
the Fort Berthold Indian country, and
it is we'll known that corn had been
cultivated extensively by the Missouri
River Indians for many generations
previous to this date.
Their cultivated fooos were quite
similar to those of the early New Eng
land settlers, consisting OF corn ChVe
varieties), beans (three varieties),
squashes and pumpkins Several varie-
! ties), sunflowers (Which yields a CO.

PEOPLE were accustomed a few decades
ago. Their clothing Of velvety tanned
deerskin and other skins would be
welcome to white people in winter
even now. Their government was
good, and crime was infrequent. Edu-
cation though given without books
save a few records made in Photograph
writing. was quite ample. Geography
taught kindergarten style with maps
drawn on the loose earth, was a ia
vorite study continuously. History
was carefully taught, and both girls
and boys were given practical instruc-
ton in agriculture. Girls were care
fully (boys to some extent) instructed
in domestic economy, including care
of children. Among many other bits

LEGISLATURE IN SESSION
FioKida's Lawmakers Down 10 Bus
iness-Good Work Expected

Florida's legislature got down
to work for the 1913 session Tues
day Mt noon. The election of off,
GERS in both branches was mere
matter of form, as these had been
settled upon by the caucus of Mop
day night. 1. L. Farris of Duval
county, is again speaker of the
House, and Fl. L. Drane of Polk
county, is president of the Senate.
Associate Justice Shockleford
swore in the new members of the
Senate and Justice Hooker per-
formed Il like service in the House.
Both President Drane of the Sem
ate and Speaker Farris of the
House made short addresses on as
Stunning their duties and touched
upon the work that deyolve> upon
the States law-making body.
Of COURSE but little has been &C.
complished thus far, but it is gen
orally considered tnat the present
legislature is one of tina best ever
assembled in Florida and much
good work is expected.
The first day was devoted large
ly to the governors message, after
the work of organizing in each
branch had. been completed. In
addition to this the chief matter of
interest was the adoption of res
olution memorializing President
Wilson to remove Joe Lee, the
negro collector of internal revenue
at Jacksonville, and calling on the
Florida delegation in Congress to
bring about this end. The resolu-
ton was transmitted by telegraph
to Secretary of'the Treasury w.
| G. McAdoo, as embodying the SEN
ciments of the loyal Democrats OF
Florida.
Resolutions were also adopted
Inviting Senator Nathan Bryan to
address the members tonight, and
similar resolutions inviting Gov
ernor Trammel to address the
members at his pleasure, on the
revision of the FIoritla primary
laws.

Why Married People Lie to Each Other
They Won't Tolerate the Tuh-- Means Quanes, and Theye
Rather Have Peace Even They Have Fib That End

MOT long ago a wealthy West
Y ern woman was heavily
fined by the customs au-
thorities for classifying her state
ment about the value of a dress
she had bought i'm Paris Upon in
vestigation the Collector announced
that he was convinced that the
reason the lady made a false re-
port of what SHE paid for the frock
was not because she desired to
defraud the Government, but be-
cause she was afraid to tell her
husband the truth about what the
garment had cost
About the same time man in
an Eastern town appeared early
one morning with a black eye and
the most frightful tale of how he
had been waylaid by robbers and
almost murdered. and left for dead
by the wayside, and of how he had
crawled home as soon as he re-
covered consciousness.

on earth where strict veracity is
at as much of a discount as it is
in the family circle, which uni
versal experience proves that,
however admirable it may be as a
theory, it is a boomerang in prac-
tice Probably no man and no
woman ever tries telling the exact
truth to his wife or her husband,
but once. That once is sufficient
to point the moral Let it not be
forgotten that the champion liars
of history and tradition, Ananias
and Sapphire, We're a married
couple, who had doubtless acquired
deXterity in putting across plaus-
ible fibs in dealing with each other.
Now. most married people, while
recognizing the impossibility of
maintaining the character of Truth
full James and Veracious Sally,
and still keeping up friendly re-
lations, have regretted this neces-
sity More: They have been
troubled in their consciences about
the matter, for they were not by
nature liars and would gladly have
dallied with the truth if they could.
To these unhappy tarradiddlers
there is balm in Gilead by the de
cision that has just been handed
down by Judge George l.. Phillips,
of Cleveland. Ohio, who gives it
as his judicial opinion that when
a little lie will preserve the do
nestle calm. the husband should
tell it bravely and well. and in
manner 10 carry conviction.
Indeed, Judge Phillips-a Daniel,
a second Daniel, ! say, come to
judgment-holds that a man is
actually repreheusible if he with
holds the falsehood from his wife
that would have prevented a fam
lily squabble la commenting on
the evidence in a divorce case,
Judge Phillips opined
a little diplomacy. and there
would have been no trouble in this

but SO for it. Such a bargain!
And Mr. Smith remarks that it
looks good to him, and he's glad
h. he's married to a woman who
knows-the -Yalus--of-m money and
doesn't fool it away as other>wom-
en- do. And Mrs. Smith kisses HIN,
and has the difference between
what she pays for the hat and
what she says she paid for the hat
charged up on the grocery book
and the butcher book, and deep
peace reigns over Europe, Asia,
Polynesia and the Smith family.
Such experiences are not con-
fined to the Smith family. They
are daily enacted in every house
hold in the land, and the fault is
not with the liar but with the ty-
rant that makes the liar. No man
but would like to be frank with
his wife. No woman but would
like to be open and aboveboard
with her husband, but the price
of yeracity is a continual row, and
we all prefer peace even if we
have to get it by subterfuge.
The truth is, we are all afraid
of our husbands and wives, and
fear breeds liars. A woman makes
her husband lie to her because
she won't stand for the truth. A
man puts premium on his wife
deceiving him because he won't
stand for the truth from her, and
so it goes. and the biggest whop-
per that any man or woman eyer
tells is when they say to the part
ners of their bosoms: Il always
tell you the truth about every
thing
OF course, its better to fib than
ia be divorced, but most people
have felt that the domestic lie was
a degradation, and these will be
cheered and comforted by Judge
Phillips decision that such lies
are not only admissible, but con-
jugal duty

children say in playing hide and

there had been no assault made

downtown too long and looked too
often upon the beer as it foameth,
and had fallen against a fence in
trying TO find his own domicile, and
that he had concocted his cute lit

A Joyous Gospel From
Helen Keller

Rebel against the hardness and
injustice of things as much as
you like. 1t is always well TO
keep your fighting edge keen to
smite wrongs wherever you meet
them. But never doubt the per
manence and excellence Of what
is yet to be.
THE great, enduring realities
are love and service. Joy IS the
holy fire that keeps our purpose
warm and our intelligence aglow'
Work without joy shall be as
nothing. Resolve to keep happy
and your joy and you shall form
an invincible host against difficult
ties.
Learn from your books nos
only the days lesson, but the lie
lesson. In all knowledge, in tns
classics, in science, in history ana
literature, and in mathematics
you will see the struggle Of man
to get nearer to God. Resolve
then, as you stand on the TIRES
hold of your student days, Win
an enlightened optimism to con-
secrate your education to the SER
vice of others. When your
thoughts become pessimlsIl0'
when it seems as if all men were
deafened by the tumuit of traoe
blinded by self-interest and sreeu,
turn the pages of your history u
England, and you will find tha'
the ideals which shaped the An
glo- Saxon race were not mean u
sordid. American history, too, j.
filled with heroes and martyr
who joyfully pushed aside anlp'
ton and gave their lives TO l"e
common veal.
The world needs more oil IN,
spirit of service. There is So"
many a desert place where W"
sun of love and the light Of tr''"
have not shone."

TT Ellen KELLAR, in many
II ways fhe most wonderful
woman of the age, has
Just published book. "Out of the
Dark" through the Doubleday
Page Company. In spite of both
deafness and blindness, she has
conquered the knowledge of the
world, and writes like a fervent
prophecies of many of our anx-
ious problems. Here are some
timely words of wisdom for the
myriads of young people who are
just returning to their work in the
schools:
In college you will be brought
face to face with nearly all the
fundamental questions of life,
and you will learn how many men
have tried to solve them. Hitch
your wagon to a happy star, and
you also shall help to solve them.
The world needs your intellect,
your scholarship, but most of all
your hearts-hearts that are low
ing, brave, hopeful, happy.
Does all this dream of high
privilege and noble service seem
far beyond the reach of your
powers of mind? Remember what
Senator Hoaf', said: Much of the
good work of the world has been
that of dull people who have done
their best
Fears and regrets have no
place in the vocabulary of youth,
whose spirit sets it's white and
shining wings toward the purple
shores of the promised land. Be
happy, talk happiness. Happi-
ness calls out responsive gladness
in others. There is enough sad
ness in the world without yours.
