How We Get The News.

The other day perfectly nice lady
called on US and with tears in her
voice reproyed us for not mentioning
the fact that she had had a friend
visiting her last week: We told her
that she had not let us know any
thing about it and that therefore, we
did not know that she had visitor.
Then she said, "Well you should have
known. | thought you were running
newspaper" Wouldn't that rattle
your Stats? Some people think that
the Editor ought to be cross be-
tween Argus and Anna Eva Fay.
They seem TO think that our five SEN
ses are augmented by sixth that
lets us know everything that hap
pens even il we see, hear, feel, taste
or smell it not. Dear lady, editors
are only human or at least almost
human. If you have friend visit
ing you, if you are going away, or
have returned from a visit out Of
town, if Jonnie falls and breaks his
arm, if your husband .chops his toe
instead of a stick Of wood, if any
thing happens that makes you glad,
or sad, happy, or mad tell US about it
Fhat's the way to get it into the pa
per.

the Indian and the Government, give
every man his own and let him go
his way, to success or destruction,
rather than keep alive in the Indian
the belief that he is to remain ward
Of the Government.
1.-The way out is to gradually and
wisely to put the Indian out. Our
goal is the free Indian. The orphan
asylum idea must be killed in the
mind of Indian and white man. The
Indian should know that he is upon
the road to enjoy or suffer full capac-
ity. He is to have his opportunity as
'forward-looking man.
''It is my conclusion, after as init
mate study as practicable Of his
nature and needs, that we should
henceforth make positive and sys,
tematic effort to cast the full burden
Of independence and responsibility
upon an increasing number Of the
Indians of all triceS. / find that
there is statute which significantly
empowers the Secretary of the In
terror to do this in individual cases
That authority is adequate. Iinteno
to use such authority"

AS 1t SlinuId Be.

In the school house in Belleville.
Wis, few evenings ago, upon mo-
tion os' the Catholic priest, the Meth
odist minister was elected president
Of ahe community's social center for
the coming winter.
Then three basket ball teams we're
formed, including the priest, the min
lister, the blacksmith, the editor, a
farmer, the keeper of the village rest
aurant, dentist, a clothier, a team
ster, druggist, garage owner, the
banker. the saloonkeeper, a hardware
merchant and house painter.
They differed in religion, in politics
in income, in social status about as
wildly as men can differ. But in the
common school building, in the free
democracy of the social center, they
agreed to lay aside their difrerces for
the purpose of discovering how much
good fellowship there was In meet
ing together, now and then, as equals
las brothers.
In the democracy of play, in the
democracy of frank, fair discussion of
public questions, they are finding
out, these differing men of Belleville,
| that, as human beings, they're amaz-
ingly alike, once you get below the
surface.
And out of this agreeable discovery
will come, for Belleville, more toler-
ance, more kindlinesS of feeling,
more give and take than it had ever
known before. Even when they shall
differ again-as, of course, they al
ways WILT won't be with as much
bitterness, as much bigotry, as muck
mean hate as Of yore.
It's wonderful solvent, is broth
erhood.

Indian Proverbs.

Doubt always travels on snowshoes.
When the fox walks lame, old rab-
bit jumps.
The Paleface's arm is longer than
his word.
"A squaws tongue runs faster than
the winds legs.
Before the Paleface came there was
no poison in the Indians corn.
The Indian takes his dog to Heaven,
the Paleface sends his brother to hell
There will be no hungry Palefaces
as long as there are Indian lands to
swallow.
When "a man prayS one day and
steals six, the Great Spirit thunderS
and the Evil One laughs.

Would you like to make this Christ
mas just little different and little
better-than all others Of the past?
Would you like to feel just little
better satisfied with yourself? Figure
UP the amount of money you expect
to spend, and then send check for
about one-tenth or one-twentieth of
of the amount to your church treas
urer. If every person in town did
that il would save the ministers a
good deal of pleading for funds. OF
course the suggestion is rather start
ling, but it would be quite in keeping
with the Christmas spirit.

We received letter from Ralph ,.
Williams this week, who is visiting
with his parents at Elizabeth, n. D.,
in which he says, "in spite OF news
paper optimism conditions are very
bad here and the wars imprint is very
deep" He does not expect to return
to Wood until after Christmas. he
iuclosed the following clipping from
the New York Times that may prove
of interest to our readers, among both
Indians and whites:
A definite, constructive policy 1or
the Indian, by which he may be
transformed from ward OF the GOV
ernment to successful and integral
part of the American citizenry; dis
Isussion of the development of the
west, and review of the achieve
nsnts of the last year are contained
in the annual report Of Secretary
Franklin X. Lane Of the Interior de-
Dbartment, sent today to President
Wilson.
Secretary Lane discusses the in
dian problem at length, and asks
whether lit is for the benefit OF The
Indian himself that the present
aImshouse policy" should continue.

sense Of justice, our traditions, il

Bought at Home.

When buying goods made in
America" go little further, be a
little more patriotic, and buy goods
at home.
1t is good to buy goods made in
America, but it is even better to buy
them from the home merchant.
BY buying American made goods
you keep your money in circulation
in America. But by buying those
goods from our local merchants you
keep your money in circulation at
home.
Every man and woman talks patri-
otism and likes to be considered
patriotic.
Let's practice what we preach.
Buy American made goods at home
from our merchants.
That is patriotism.

Your Christmas Cheer.

You are going to spend some money
for articles you will send out with
words of cheer on this approaching
Christmas day.
1T is a beautiful habit-his giving
Of cheer and the custom tittingly
commentaries the day when Christ
was born.
For Christ gave most Of all Hislife.
In the expenditure Of our holiday
funds would it not be well for us to
remember that every dollar we spend
at home will give cheer to some one
Of our own people, TO some one who
is interested in us, who is laboring
for the advancement Of our own com
munity?
1t is not for us to tell where you
should trade. That is q matter for
your own Judgment.
But we do ask you to look carefully
over the advertisements in this paper
You will find what you want, and
quite likely you will be able to pur-
chase it as cheapy in this town as
anywhere else.
And the home merchant and his
family will thus partake Of the
Christmas cheer which you hand out
on that blessed day.
And even you, the giver, will be
cheered by the thought that you have
added to the happiness OF some one
you know on this day Of peace and
good will 10 all peoples.

Black Is Seryiceable

Everything tends to make the black
dress more attractive than it ever has
been before. There is, to begin with,
the new suppleness of the fabrics and
their greater variety and decorative
ness, too, and then the supreme grace
OF the draperies and the further Dos
sibility of letting the corsage Of even
the day dress merge into q soft-semi-
transparency of chiffon or net, under
lined with flesh pink, which would
at one time only have been considered
permissible in the evening toilette
the deep opening OF the neck, too, and
Its finishing with a fold or frill OF
white, all combined TO make the black
dress entirely becoming to all COM
plexiCns and ages.
So do not on any account miss your
chance of looking your best in black
this season-though, please under
stand, 1t is by no means suggested
that you should give up colors, but
only that you should take advantage
of the possibilities of the black dress,
which is such an obviously desirable
and necessary possession for one and
all OF you, and which, being really
as serviceable as 1t is smart, Is a
specially valuable asset to the woman
who has to make both ends Of a small
allowance meet around a large mum
Der of necessities.

feathers seeming to generate warmth,
but they do not actually keep away
the cold as well as furs do.
Marabout has been dyed In many
colors this season and made up with
short curled ostrich fiues into very
handsome sets. Women like them be-
cause they are very becoming acces-
series and do not need TO be discarded
indoors when one is to make a brief
stay. The cape or stole thrown of
tho shoulders, and the muff carried In
one hand, help out the toilette inn
mensely. Even when coat is re-
moved, these with hat and gloves are
retained on numbers of demi-dress oc-
casions
The neckpieces and NUTS are made
up OF strands Of marabout and strands
of ostrich tackled together. Some
times two colors, as black and white,
natural and white, or white and the
pastel shades, are combined. Natural
color-a taupe gray-is the great IA

or Neckpieces are usually straight
scarves, rather long, although there
are capes and stoles in some variety.
The NUTS are made up In plain
shapes, not draped or in eccentric pat
terO, which have been popular in furs.

Activities of Women.

In the Colorado state penitentiary
there are only 81 women as compared
to 500 men.
No woman under forty years of age
Is allowed to drive her own motor car,
in Paris.
Nine. Pallier recently made a fight
of ia miles in an aeroplane, which is
a new record for women.
Miss Annie J. Cannon, the most dis
tinguished astronomer in the world, is
cataloging 100000 new stars.
Paris women are wearing half wells.
which is regarded as a reversion to
the Turkish habit.
Over 1900 women weavers in Pat
erson, n. j., mills have decided to
ask for shorter working hours and if
they do not receive what they want
they will go on a strike.
So that she will be able to learn
the methods of just how the schools
are run, Mrs. Lola Morgan, recently
elected a school director in Norwood,
Ohio, will attend school every day
with her children.
The school children of Lane county,
Oregon, will be taught road building,
and Miss Goldie Van Biber, who will
direct the work, will have charge of
zoo square miles of country through
which roads will be built.

CALLED FOR MUCH PATIENCE
Making of Arrow Heads Brought Into
Requisition All the Art and
Skill of the indian.

Not all Indians can make arrow
heads. This art was the special func-
ton of the older and more skillful
men. Ishi seems to have been close
ly associated with the usual customs,
he preserves many of the more high
ly developed arts and crafts.
In the manufacture of arrow heads,
flint and obsidian were used by the
Yanas
Obsldian is volcanic glass, occur
ring in parts of California In the
shape of dark Opaque powders Of
small size. When splintered either
by stone mallets or by another rock
1t appears as brownish or dark gray
glass, uneven in color.
Ishi breaks these powders by hit
ting them with another rock. Having
obtained fragments varying from 2 to
inches long to IL inches wide, and
about a quarter of an inch thick, he
is prepared to fake his haka or heads
The first fakes are large and free
ly made, calculating to give by wide
transverse lines of cleavage, and to
establish the fundamental outlines Of
the point. Later these flakes are
smaller and more like finishing touch
es. The tool he now uses is not horn
but iron or soft steel.
Smaller tools are made of wire nails
driven into wooden handles 6 inches
long. These are filed to a fat round
ed point, something like a blunt
screwdriyer.
In working the obsidian this edge
is held vertical to the stone and the
shaft of the taking tool in the plane
of the left palm. Apparently the soft
metal permits the glass to make a
small dent in it which engages the
two and allows pressure being APP
piled to the edge to be faxed.
As Ishi develops the form of his
arrowhead to a graceful acute angle,
he changes to finer taking tool, and
resting the stone on his protected
thumb, he then makes the little linden
tations near the base, which permit
the sinew to hold the head of the ar
row. Never once during this process
does he hit or beat the obsidian. No
rough force is required, just patient,
artful deXterity and strength of fin
gers.

Fastest Travel on Record.

The researches made by physicists
of all centuries have proved that the
hertzian waves move with the same
speed as light, that is to say, at about
$4,000 miles a second.
Three French scholars, Mr.. Abra-
ham, professor at the Conservative
des Arts ct Meters; Major Ferrie and
Mr., Dufour, have, under the auspices
of the bureau Of longitudes, just de-
termined the speed of propagation OF
the hertZian waves between Paris and
Toulon. Part of the result has been
calculated, and the speed found is
295,900 kilometers to the second, with
a difference of less than one per cent.
for each determination, in comparison
TO the average.
They intend to measure this speed
between the Eiffel tower and the sta
ton of wireless telegraphy at Wash
ington, while the longitude of the
capital of the United States is being
determined.
Messrs. Abraham, Dufour and Ferrie
propose to continue their experiments
and to study the speed of the propa-
cation of hertZian waves between two
points separated by the sea.
