University Experts Study
Big Problem in the Feud
District Of Kentucky.
SEE GREAT UPL|FT FOR PEOPLE

Professor J. L. Gillin Of the Univer
sity of Wisconsin has returned from
Kentucky, where he went at the re-
quest of the board of directors of the
Riverside Institute, a school among the
mountain people of eastern Kentucky.
It is located at Lost Creek on Trouble
some river, two mics from where that
river empties int the Kentucky river.
It is in Breathitt county, where the
feuds about which we have heard the
last few years were fought out to the
death of almost all the parties con-
cerned.
Professor Gillin was asked by the
board to 60 and see the work and act
as adviser in the matter of its further
development.
The institute was founded by Rev.
Drushal of the Bretheren church about
nine years ago. says Mr.. Gillin
"Fresh from college at Ashland, Ohio,
he took his young bride with him into
the mountains to help these mountain
p6OpIt up " d HlSHtT pldu6 OI lV1Hg.
Just below some fifty mics is Oneida,
where Burns has built school for his
beloved mountaineers. Above some
forty miles is Buckhorn, where another
Abou ben Adhem, who loved his fell
lowmen,' has built up log college. ,
Here was region over fifty miles
square which had no schools worthy of
the naem, and without any influences
making for its betterment. There
were no churches, no schools, no social
life to stimulate the growing youth
There was plenty of moonshine whisky,
plenty Of lazy men and slovenly, hope
less women, plenty of gossiping and
fighting. Drushal located at that beau
tiful spot and start a school and
church services. He began in a small
building. Soon he bought four acres
Of ground in bend of Troublesome
from farmer and in the face of sus-
picbion and contempt began school
to which the children were asked to
come.

upon and she takes her music seriously,
so that all that she plays is eminently
correct and in good caste. Schumann g
Carnival" a piece which has tested
the abilities of our great players, was
the important number on her program,
and, while there were some technical
uncertainties in its rendition, for the
most part it was interpreted with
poesy and with insight for its roman
tic spirit. The F sharp minor rhapsody
by Dohnanyi afforded Miss Heyman
chance to display her tone power and
temperamental qualities and she gave
this selection in genuine artistic fash
ion. It was excellently played. A
romance by Arthur Hinton is interest
ing and pianistic and the bird study"
by Bortkiewicz has brilliance. The
program also contained the fPastorale
Variations by Mozart, a minuette
and rondon by Padre Martini and three
pieces by Mcdowell. 1t was pleas
ant recital throughout and reflected
much credit upon both Miss Heyman
and on her teacher, Della Thai. the
Chicago pianist
The Telegraph-courier. [volume] (Kenosha, Wis.) 1888-1946, 1915-05-06


"From that beginning he has grad
ually developed the school until today
he has school plant of three good
buildings besides his house, which
serves also as a demonstration home
for all the people of the neighborhood.
Thither the people are invited and
come for advice in their difficulties
and help in their troubles. They get
advice and help, but they also carry
away with them the memory of an ex-
ample in the conduct Of housesold
and in Christian living.
:" Graduallv the school has expanded
to include courses in teacher training,
for Drushal and the board have come
to see that there can be no better
schools until teachers with higher
ideals are trained, and those who will
be the parents of the next generation
receive by a living demonstration the
idea of better schools. Two years ago
the idea of compelling every girl who
goes to the school to take domestic
science was adopted after careful con-
sideration. They rebelled at the re-
quirement at first, but soon fell in with
it and now are enthusiastic concern
ing it. 1t is almost pathetic to hear
the stories of the mothers of some of
them, about how the daughter who has
been there to school comes home and
sets about doing the homework in a
different manner, which at first stirs
the mother to resentment, but which
finally wins her admiration because of
the results obtained.
Last year the farm on which the
institute is located, was bought by the
board with the idea Of making the
farm a demonstration in better farm
ing, and incidentally a means of sup
port to the dormitories at the school.
The coming year the farm will be run
by a competent farmer under the di-
rection of the Kentucky Agricultural
Experiment Station at Lexington.
The primary purpose is to start in a
small way to farm that farm much as
the people about there farm, but to do
it so much better that few words will
be needed to teach them the lessons of
careful scientific work in connection
with farming. Gradually a series of
frief institutes will be organized to
bring to the place the farmers of the
community so that they may see and
benefit from the work done there.
From one hundred to one hundred
and fifty pupils come to the school
each year. The past year more boys
came than could be accommodated.
This year the boys dormitory will be
enlarged. Six teachers are now en-
ployed and another will be added
next year.
LAS indicating that the school is
setting an example of efficient teach
ing it may be said that last year at
the county examination for teachers
certificates at Jackson out of nineteen
first grade certificates issued nine were
granted to students Of Riverside Insti-
tute.''

Praise from Chicago Musical Critics.
Miss Dora Heyman, the we'll known
pianiste Of Kenosha, won new laurels
at the Little Theatre in Chicago, on
Monday evening, when she played be-
fore a large and appreciative audience
of Chicago musicians. Many people
from Kenosha went to Chicago to at
tend the recital and the reception
given to the work Of Miss Heyman was
most cordial. Her program was pleas
ing one. Miss Heyman viii give her
Kenosha recital week from tonight
at the Rhode Opera House.
Maurice Rosenfeld, the well known
Chicago critic in speaking of Miss
Heyman's recital in Chicago on Mon
day evening, said:
Musical taste, poetic feeling and
imagination made up the principal ele-
ments in the piano recital given last
evening by Dora Heyman at the Little
Theater. This very young pianist
she is scarcely eighteen years-has an
ingenious manner; she is good to look

Blind school improvements

For the school for the blind at James
vile the committee recommends the
installation of sanitary plumbing, that
the board of control contract with the
city of GAINESVILLE for a water sup
ply; that new laundry be built at
a cost of not to exceed $4,000 and
an additional sum of $4,000 be appro-
priated to construct a new kindergar-
ten.
Practically the only important rec
ommendation regarding the industrial
school at Waukesha was that boys be
paroled at the age of Is years instead
of p. For the state prison at Wau-
pun, the committee recommends that
the cell house in the north wing be
converted into a dormitory ward for
older prisoners; better lighting sys-
tenn be installed in the yard, thing
be secured for 100 acres of land;
that an expert accountant go over
the books every three months; that
road building by prisoners be ex-
tended as much as possible.
At the public school at Sparta the
committee recommends an appropria-
tion of $4,000 for new school build
ing to replace the old frame school
building. At the Green Bay reforma-
tory, the committee recommends an
appropriation of $4,000 to complete
the central administration building;
$4,000 for water reservoir and that
the inmates be used whenever a state
building is constructed and the dis
lance they are to be transported is
not TOO great. An additional shack
for the care of women tubercular pa
tients is recommended for the Wales
institution and also that a doctor s
residence be built at cost Of about
$4,000.
Recommends State Control
There Isl a long discussion over the
industrial school for girls at Milwau-
kee. The committee recommends
that the board of control be given full
management of the school. 1t further
recommends that the industrial home
for women at Taycheedah, now under
construction, "be used. to establish an
industrial school for girls and that
the Milwaukee property be either sold
or converted into temporary indus
trial home for women.
The committee reports that the
live stock owned by the different state
institutions consists mostly of blooded
stock and practically furnishes all of
the dairy products used by the
institutions.

of consideration.
At its various conferences the Society has
insisted upon three fundamental necessities
which the Government itself should meet.
1t has stated that the United States Court
of Claims should be open directly to Indian
tribes or bands, believing themselves entitl-
ed to \ hearing, without the special permis-
sion of Congress, in each instance. 1t has
recommended the partition of all tribal funds
on the books of the Interior Department so
that every Indian might know the mount of
his individual share and it cas- insisted on a
Congressional determination OF the legal
status of the various groups and divisions in
the country. together with lie necessity ct
a new Iadian code of law consistant xith
sociological, scientific and civic develop
ment and progress. Its foremost appeal.
however, is and has been to the Indian
themselves. The Denver platform says:
"Our final appleal-is 4 race. We have no
higher end than to see it reach out towards

positive, constructive factor, IN the life Of

tive participation III the worlds work.
The Lawrence topic is Responsibility
for the Red Man, with special reference
to the part of the Indian himself should take
in the redemption of his race from depend
snce, and wardship. The topics Of the day
arc therefore such subjects as: ''Respon-
sibility in Education. 'sHow the Indians
themselves may remedy the conditions OF
their race;" "The Present Progress of the
Indians, Incentives and Drawbacks"
"sGiving the Indian > part in the adminis-
tration Of his own affairs;'' ttResponsibil-
ity. of the Government to the Indian;"
and one Of the most important subjects to
be discussed is "The Problem Of the Res.
eryation," which is expected to bring out
strongly the position of the Indian Agent,
toward the Indian and the many misde.
meanors that exists there.
There will be manv Indian clergymen II

ces in the local churches.
