DR.. FRIEDMAN SAYS INDIANS ARE HONEST

Indian girl is brave enough to tell the
truth.
"The Indian is moral and instinct
lively. This is co-educational insti-
tuition. in a sense, but we have less
sex annoyances than would be the
case were the students white. The In
dian girl is modest II marriage is
uppermost in her mind she does not
show it in her conduct
Tradition represents the Indian as
being indolent. l say that he is In
dustrious. Among aboriginal Indians
the labor of families was divided, as
it is supposed to be DIVIDED among
civilized people. The husband hunted.
fished and went to war.
THE wife remained at home, cooked
the food of the family, and made such
clothing as was customary to be worn
History is filled with the atrocities
of the Indians. The records we have,
however, were written by their white
enemies. The fighting of civilized ma
tions today is said to be much like the
fighting of the savages which we look
upon with horror. Scalping was in
part a ceremony. Armies all over the
world are now preparing to drop
bombs from the air on their adver-
saries. The Maine was blown UP in
Havana. The scalping of man al
ready dead Is. by comparison, a hu-
mane performance.
No one has ever heard of an Indian
mother whipping her children"

which was to hold a convention in
Belgium.
Mrs. Harbert had not much time to
either. but she decided to go to the
congress in Belgium because she had
some practical ideas that had come to
her while, as an orphan girl, she was
doing the housework, and much of the
field work. too, on a farm in Iowa;
and later as a school teacher and
ranch woman in Colorado. She had
known bitterest poverty on farm.
She knew from experience the hard
ness and the loneliness of the life.
She had ideas for tightening the bur-
dens of farm women and for making
their lives happier, and she wished to
tell the farm women of the world
about it.
Just before she departed for the con-
gress in Belgium she pruned with her
own hands 1000 cherry trees on her
farm near Manzanola. and then she
packed her trunk and went.
In that congress were women dele
gates from Canada, Ireland, Scotland,
England. Spain. France. Belgium. Hol-
land, Germany, South Africa. Aus
tralia. Hungary. Denmark. Servia, Co
lombia, South America, Panama, Aus
tria, Switzerland, Poland and Russia
The princess of Spain was there as
delegate and there were many other
titled women, and women of distinc-
ton, but the majority of them were
farmers wives. The only woman from
the United States was Mrs. Harbert

she has seen him rise from an untried
lawyer to one of the ablest in his
state; from a member of the legisla-
ture to the associate justiceship of the
supreme court Of New Mexico on to
the attorney generalship, and now to
the United States senate. And through
all that time she has had faith in him

children. help them or interest them
she is keenly alive-but beyond that
Mrs. Fall finds time for little.
1t is not difficult to find a woman
who says she believes a wife should
be a helpmate to her husband. The
difficulty lies in finding one who lives
up to the statement Mrs. Fall does.

auxiliary to the dry farmers con-
gress in Colorado Springs three years
ago. the idea being to work together
to try to make life easier and bright
er for the women of the farms. After
she formed this society she learned
that some women In other countries
were working to the same end In
Germany there was a large organiza-
tion of farm wives. and it had affili-
ated with other organizations of the
same kind In other countries, and all
of them had united into the Interna-

MEMBER OF WASHINGTONS SENATORIAL SET

1t is not hard to find wives of promi-
nent men, but 1t is not always the
case that such wife has materially
aided in the accomplishment of that
success. Mrs. Fall has.
And If all this is apparent after an
interview with Mrs. Fall, 1t is not be-
cause she is either boastful or talka-
tive upon the subject. 1t is learned
through little remarks dropped. direct
questions and diplomatic leads
MY husbands success was not due
to chance" his wife claims. When he
started to practice, the first thought
we had upon taking case was wheth-
er or not he could win It The ques-
tion of fee was secondary"
That I'VE" was one of the remarks
dropped" and although Mrs. Fall is
not a graduate of law, the expression
was correct She comes from a fam
lily of lawyers. Her father was one.
Her cousin was Augustus H. Garland,
attorney general in Cleveland's cab
met. And. 1t can be added. Mrs. Fall
is a lawyer by instinct, sufficiently
learned to take an active part in help
ing her husband.
When asked the direct question as
to woman's ability to help her hus-
band, Mrs. Fall admitted 1t could be
done, but there were conditions.
"A woman can do much in inspiring
her husband, and can help him. She
is sure to be of use to him II she takes
an active. intelligent interest in his
work"
That has been her motto. with en-
phasis on the intelligent, and as a re-
suit. 1t is safe to say that few have
been the cases handled by Senator
Fall of which she was ignorant.

Great Value in
Acacia Trees.

hcacia 1rpnS Der, says the de-
partment of agri
culture in a bulletin recently issued,
that the commercial cultivation in
certain portions of the United
States may prove extremely profit
able. Aside from their value for
tannin and lumber, the department
goes on to say, they are well adapted
to the reclamation of sandy and semi
desert lands, some species being able
to thrive with only three inches of
rainfall
All told, there are about $50 species
of acacias, 300 of which are Australian
species and the rest scattered over the
world principally In Asia, Africa and
America
In addition to tannin and timber
many of the acacias produce valuable
by-products. The widely known gum
arabic is derived principally from the
Arabic acacia, though also from a
number of Asiatic and African desert
species. Clutch, an astringent gum in
constant demand, is another acacia
product. Many other kinds of gums
are yielded by different acacia species.
The flowers of still another species,
known as cassie, yield perfume, the
manufacture of which at Grasee.
France, the center of the perfume in
dustry, is very profitable. A full
grown tree yields about 300 pounds
of flowers. Cassie growing utilizes
poor soils, incapable of bearing grain
or fruit crops.
So far, acacias have been planted in
the United States simply as ornamen-
tails, and the information secured from
a study of these does not throw much
light upon the behavior of the trees
under closely planted commercial con-
ditions. Their cultivation will have
to be confined, of course, to the COM
paratively frostless regions of the
Gulf coast, the Southwest and Cali.
