WHER EFoRE,
WHITE MANI

White Man, you taught US that war
was wrong. and told US to turn from
the war-path; you said we should live
at peace with other tribes Of our own
people and with yours. We listened
to your words. We have remembered
them. All that you told us to do, we
have done. Our lances are broken.
Our bows are burned and our arrows
are lost. Our tomahawks are buried
so deep that they are forgotten. The
once keen edge of the scalping knife
Is dulled with the rust OF many years.
The useless shield hanks on the wall
like the picture of an age that is past.
The drum of the war-dance is heard
no more. The green grass OF the
prairie has spread its cloak over the
last trace Of the ancient war-path to
hide 1t from our eyes forever. The
bright path of peace is the only one
known to our young men. Our people
sing the songs Of peace. 1t is well.
White Man, you told us that 1t was
the will Of the Great Spirit that we
should go to war no more. Do you
think that He will be unmindful If
you draw your sword against other
people OF your own race? II war was
wrong for the Red Man, can it be
right for the White Man, or has truth
itself become untrue?
White Man, you will sing the songs
of war. You teach the stories of war
to your young men. Your horses are
trained to travel the trails that lead
to war. The tread of your armies is
more terrible than flood or tempest.
The thunder Of your mighty guns
makes the earth heave and tremble.
You soar to the clouds like the eagle.
You defy the demon of the deep with
craft that are waited beneath the
waves. Yet vain are all the powers
thus called to your aid,
White Man, despise not the words
of your Red Brother who is humble
and weak. Listen to the message of
him whom you once called a savage.
Learn for yourself the lesson you once
taught to him. Turn from your ways
Of war into the path of peace.
The words of your Red Brothers
tongue are as the impulse of his heart
He has spoken.-Written by Medicine
Arrow for the Calumet.

emancipator's life, for in October Of
that year his mother died, and the
sensitive, lonely boy grieved for a
year.
After a time the father married
again and the stepmother was good to
the boy. He grew fast and strong,
and at seventeen he was six feet four
inches tall. He had but six months
schooling, but he studied necessarily,
reading every book he could borrow
or purchase. Looking back now 1t
seems that God himself was raising
him up and preparing him through
hardship and toll for the great work
he was later to perform.
In 1880 the family moved to Illinois
and there the great Lincoln began I'M
consciously to assume his place as
leader. At the outbreak of the Black
hawk war he was elected captain of a
company. His political career began
was repeatedly elected. and in 1858 he
was n candidate for the U. S. Senate
He lost the election to Stephen A..
Douglas. but he gained for himself the
forces, and in 1860 he was elected
president. 1t took a great soul in a
man of Lincoln's heroic origin, direct,
honest methods, and intense patriot
IN oI,f 4f
state through the turbulent waters OF
rebellion to the calm of peace and a
reunited people. In this he reflected
the elements of q God. In love, not in
hate. he hurled million armed men
against the insurgent south; with a
stroke of the pen he set free four mil
lion slaves representing a property
value of two and half billion dollars,
and with fire and sword and the ex-
penditure of hundreds of thousands of
lives and billions in treasure, he
proved for all time to come that DEM
ocratic institutions are capable of re-
sisting the mightiest shocks of civil
war.
The great soul Of Lincoln was re-
Elected in his matchless outburst in
his second inaugural address which is
repeated every year by thousands of
school boys:
with malice toward none; with char.
ity for all; with firmness in the right
as God gives us to see the right, let
us strive on to finish the work we are
in; to bind up the nations wounds; to
care for him who shall have borne
the battle, and for his widow and his
orphan-to do all which may achieve
and cherish a just and lasting peace
among ourselves and with all nations"
Lincoln's death was a fitting ending
for his life. even as was the death of
the Son of Man on the cross, for it
crystalized for all ages to come the
love of greatful people.
Plain, homely, humble-born Lincoln.

THE IMMORTAL
ABRAHAM LINCOLN.

One hundred and seven years ago
today, in Kentucky. in rude log
cabin fourteen rect square, with dirt
floor, one window and one door. there
was born the plainest, simplest, hum
blest. most loving and lovable of ma
tional leaders, Abraham Lincoln, now
the tenderest memory of the world.
In all history from the very begin
ming to this day. there is no parallel
to this life, begun in profound poverty
and ending in greatest glory. save and
except Jesus Christ, for from the most
AFFECT depths of squalid environment
he rose by sheer force of character
until he became the most august fig
ure In history. the most significant
and lovable personality in the annals
of mankind. We think of Washington
with pride, of jefferson and Madison
with intellectual reverence, of Grant
and Lee with grateful consciousness
OF their strength, but the memory of
Lincoln, even fifty years after his
piteous death, stirs the loving venera-
ton OF the nation, for his life voiced a
message of the humanity of God and
the divinity of man.
The father of Abraham Lincoln.
Thomas Lincoln, was carpenter and
he did not learn to scrawl his name
until after his marriage. His mother,
Nancy Hanks Lincoln, was the daugh-
ter of supposedly illiterate and SUP.
erstitious family, but she was comely
and intelligent What American, how
ever poor and ignorant. unlettered
and discouraged, can look upon the
rude timbers of the home that shelf
cred the birth of the great Lincoln
without thrill OF hope and a realiza-
ton of the opportunities that are co.
eternal with conscience, courage and
persistence?
In 1916 the Lincoln family moved
from Kentucky to Indiana and there
In shed of logs. partly open to the
weather, they lived on game of the
forest. The boy only eight years old
slept on leaves in the loft. Here the
first great sorrow came to the great
