The announcement was made yes
terday that in the future there would
be no head Of the music department.
This branch of the institution will be
directly under w. S. Dearmont, presi-
dent of the school. The various teach
ers will be employed by the president
and approved by the Board of Regents
Just as all other teachers are.
1t is understood that no one will be
chosen to take the place left vacant
by Miss Naeter's dismissal. The Trib-
une was informed yesterday that Mr..
Dearmont will select ladies to take
the places of Miss Lawson, Miss Beach
and Miss Day. Another assistant,
whose position was created by Miss
Naeter, will not be refilled, it is said
The new instructors, whether they
are the old teachers or not, will be
assigned their work when the autumn
term of the school opens. This task
will fall to President Dearmont, who
will be given absolute charge of every
sras -'Ant. Should dissatisfaction
.-sg Oh ,eachars will have to go to
re hea' Of the school TO get relief.
The reorganization Of the music l.
partrlent was caused by Il fcud which

Miss Hinchey was compelled to foryC
a fee of S25.
Mrs. A H. Hinchey, the well-known
musician and mother of the young
singer, resented the treatment of her
daughter and her many friends took
sides with her. Miss Elizabeth Beach,
of the Normal school, who is staunch
admirer of Miss Hinchey, also let it
be known that she was for Miss Hin
chey against Miss Naeter. This &C
ton, Miss Beach said, widened the
breach between her and the director of
music at the Normal school. Miss
Day and Miss Lawson, both teachers
at the Normal, who had been unfairly
criticised, they said, took sides with
Miss Beach.
Miss Beach was refused permission
to sing in the Messiah and she charg-
ed Miss Naeter with being responsible
for it. This Miss Naeter denied. With
Miss Beach, Miss Lawson and Miss
Day called upon Louis Houck presi
dent of the Board of Regents of the
Normal school, and registered a pro-
test against conditions existing in the
of music.
Mr.. Houck informed them that DIR.
Dearmont was at the head of the in
stitution and advised them to take
their protest to him. They informed
Mr.. Houck that they had consulted DIR.
Dearmont and were told that he could
do nothing. President Dearmont is
said to have informed the teachers
that he knew of conditions in the mu-
sic department, but was helpless.
Professors in the school consulted |
with the young women and urged
them to call upon Mr.. Houck. The |
young ladies told Mr.. Houck that I'M

happy family.
Miss Beach said that she offered
the olive branch to Miss Naeter and
it was rejected. The peace token came
in the nature of box of candy. Miss
Sarah Glenn presented Miss Beach
with box of bon-bons, Miss Beach
said, and she decided TO do an act of
kindness and divide her present with
the director Of music. 81 should like
to know who gave you candy" was
Miss Naeter's greeting to Miss Beach.
The music teachers are as antago-
nistic now as when the vendetta broke
into print.
In order to bring peace the Board of
Regents decided they must violate
their neutrality and take a hand in
the row. They held a secret meeting
few days ago and decided not to re-
employ Miss Naeter and Miss Lawson.
They also decided not to employ a
woman as the head of the department
of music, because they believed that
when one woman attempted to dictate
to others, the school would get in the
same position the United States now
occupies with the European belliger-
CHts.

Farming is to be one of the leading oc-
equations of the Indian, as we well know
the most of them have been allotted valu-
able agricultural lands in different parts of
the United States. 1t is quite natural for
the Indian to love the out door life, then
what other occupation could be so well
suited to his welfare as race.
Washington once said that Agriculture
| is the most healthful, most useful and most
noble employment of man. Then with
such encouragement as this we should be
proud of our chosen occupation and strive
/ TO give to this work ou best efforts.
When we look about MS ard see tie great
possibilities and the rich virgin soils of this
reservation we know we have the first great
essential to successful agriculture. Then
/, the first thing that will confront us is the
clearing of the land from stunps and brush,
thus making it ready for the plow.
This has been done to great extent by
some of our most progressive farmers, and
is being carried on by them from year to year
with marked success. There is still great
many more who might well follow this ex-
! ample, The most OF you have available
trust funds that can not be more wisely cx-
pended than to clear certain number of
acres each year until your entire allotment
| is under cultivation. For it must be appear.
emf to each of you that your trust funds will
not always last, and when you once get your
;allotments properly developed, that is to say
a good house, barn, ontbuiIdings with the
necessary farm machinery and live stock
| you are in position TO become independent
and will not have to depend on day labor
! and its uncertainties.
/ There is no occupation offering the OPP
portunities that farming does today. For
the pas. ten years agricultural produce has
had steady increasing demand caused b.
the increraing population of the country and
the foreign demand for our produce, which
Of course tend to make better prices for
that which the farmer has for sale. There
fore we need not fear for the future welfare
of the farmer.
