INDIAN CHIEF A scoUTMAsTER.

Red Fox, Skuihushu, "the Indian
Man of Mystery" is travelling on his
pony to his tribe in Montana with q
letter from President Woodrow WILL

Red Fox was born In Alberta, Can.

age Of seven he was placed under the
guidance Of q warrior and taught the
things every Indian boy learns: To
know the stars, the trees. the birds,
the animals and their language, the
secrets of the woods and caves, of
streams and pools. All the wonderful
lore the Boy Scouts of America are
gaining through camp life comes to the
Indian boy as part Of his necessary
education by older men in his tribe.
Following his early boyhood days In
the Blackfoot reservation Red Fox
spent his early manhood in the Little
Horn country, where he went through
regular graded schools and high
school. He was scoutmaster Of the
6rst Indian Boy Scouts Of America.

AMERICAS DEBT 70 SCOUTS.

skin calendar, and the reason. the

Is that, unlike some people, scouts
know that the western boundary Of

the top of the Allegheny mountains,
and that one reason for this Is the
great work Of the Buckskin men, says
Dan Beard.
It's high time these Buckskin men
were put in their proper places in his
tory. for as compared with the Puri-
tans and the Cavaliers Of the eastern
coast they were real empire builders.

generous, hospitable, he Is a true hero
Of romance, and that is the reason all

faction in the adoption Of japanese
clothes. Once upon a time whatever
came from the Little Kingdom was
eagerly seized as having artistic merit
Of the highest order. but times and
thoughts have changed. japanese art
has been so cheaply cOmmercialized
throughout America. and its little
shops outline the bOardwalks Of the
pleasure resorts In such prolific
manner. that We prefer to so to China
the vast spaces around the Great
Wall-for suggestions.
The greater designers in Paris have
preferred China to Japan for half a
dozen years, and we In America have
made the kimOnO too much a part Of
our early-mOrning life. at 81 per gar
ment, that we may not see in this
effort of the house Of Cheruit an open
path to beauty.
Entire Gowns Of Jet.
The house of CallOt has thrown its
influence into many channels, and the
gowns of its making. which arrived In
this country later than all the others,
increase the respect we must pay to
jet. The woman who has cherished
a frOck Of jet and wondered If the
style would ever return In order that
she might revive 1t into something
modern, may go to the work with en-
thusiasm.
Cabot Is not the only designer who
whirls jet around the wheel of fash
ion into the top place, but she is the
one designer who introduces entire
gowns Of it. These are cOat-Of-mail
creations. that cling to the figure like
glittering cuirass and whiten In a
brilliant way the skin of the neck and
arms, which are left uncovered. These
gowns have trains Of tulle or lace, and
they are cOstly-Oh! very, very cOstlyt
To the average mind they may seem
bit heavy for an American spring,
and It is safe to say that the woman
who buys a costly evening gown in
April Of this year 1918 will expect 1t
to do duty through the summer sea-
son. Even our glittering birds Of para
disc, who heretofore flOated through
a forest of riches showing their plum
age and thinking nothing Of the cares
of life, have been changed heart and
soul by the war and its terrors into
creatures Of self-sacrifice and much
higher ideas.
Choosing Green for Suits.
Another thing that the house Of Cal
lot has done to get us away from a
conventional fashion is the explolta-
ton of green for the street. 1t may
be roughly said that there are thou
sand navy blue gowns to a hundred
Of any other color. and. admirable as
dark blue is, the world grows a bit
weary Of the monotOnOus procession
Of gowns In this color which moves to
and fro from France to Alaska. We
cry aloud for something else. We are
like the heroine Of the novel, who pas
sionately wished for just a thread Of
scarlet in her costume to make her be-
lieve that there was happiness and
gayety In the world.
Callot gives US green to quiet our
nerves. She gives us a chance to get
away from navy blue and still remain
demurely and soberly frocked.
