COUNCIL OF WAR
An Interesting Meeting Held and
Matters Discussed for the
Nations We'll
fare.

Which Will be Of Much Interest to
the Boys Of keo-

einity.
TO HOLD BIG CARNIVAL

Every tribe in the Pax Nation was
represented at the council of war"
held at the Y M c. A. last night.
At this meeting many matters of
business regarding the future wei
fare of the nation were discussed. 1t
was decided that vacation week, about
the first week in April, would be re-
served for big athletic carnival to
be held In the "Y'' gym. This car
nival will be held to determine the
basketball, baseball, track and swim
ming champions Of the Pax Nation.
Every boy in the Pax Nation will have
part in it and it will be open to the
public. A small admission fee will be
charged and this will afford the boys
an opportunity to secure funds for the
nation.
Plans were discussed for the sum-
mer camp and the boys propose to
have the biggest summer camp this
year, that has ever been held in keo.
kuk. Eevery boy is starting out with
the determination to make his own
money for camp expenses and this is
| going to help make a better camp.
The Nahpayshnee tribe reported that
| they had too many fellows in their
village and 1t was deciced that d.
1
vision should be made. This will af-
ford many other boys in that vicinity
a chance to become members Of Pax
because that will mean another village.
| The grand council which is comro5
ed of the officers of the tribes had a
meeting to elect officers of the nation.
This election resulted as follows:
First chief-Howard Malone.
Second chief-Thos. Pond.
| Medicine man-Leon Rayburn.
Wampum carrier-Lyman Beach.
After the business had been trans
acted the boys held a parlor track
meet, which, as nearly as could he
determined, was won by the Nahpay-
since tribe. Following this came the
big swim in the "Y" tank.
Boys who are not yet members OF
the Pax nation, should be talking it up
among the fellows in their neighbor-
hood and get their village organized
in time to enter The big athletic meet.

perfect, healthy action. Before baby's
coming it is just the tonic that puts
the womanly system into proper
con dition to make the birth painless
and to insure a healthy child.
