The BlaCkfeet Indians

The Blackfeet. or Pegans. as they call them
selves, number approximately 1900. The setting
for this picturesque tribe is wonderful country,
without glimpse of which picture of the Black
feet would be complete.
The reservation is in northern Montana; in area
it is two-thrds the size of Connecticut. 1t lies up
next to Canada the north and Glacier Park on the
west. The park was part of it and retains
many Indian names. such az Going the Sun
Mountain, Raising Wolf Mountain. Two-Medcine
Lake and River. and others.
From the splendid white topped range on the
west the country drops to rolling prairie eastward
1t is region of bitter winds and for several
months in the year. Closer to the mountains, there
is not a month when frost is unexpected, and snow
falls late as June. But as as the last flake
has disappeared the hillsdes flame almost overnight
with wild flowers The splendor of them continue
throughout the short summer, one brilliant shade
succeeding another Half acres in purple, spots of
blue, streaks Of yellow-one this sort of color
effect week after week.-Elsie E. Newton in the

Uruguay

A man held me fascinated the other day at
luncheon He was All American traveller who knew
every inch of Uruguay. He was telling how thor
oughly American Uruguay is and how benghted we
think Uruguay is. We think of the Uruguayans
as a k-skinned race.
Asa matter of fact, Uruguay has a larger per-
centage of pure white people than any state in
Union. These Uruguayans know us apparently better
than we know them. for every Uruguayan buys
about eight dollars worth year per capita from the
United States while every Japanese, for example,
buys about dollar and fifty cents worth year per
capita, and every Chinaman less than cents worth
a year.
And there are million four hundred thousand
folks IN Uruguay, and so keen are they on educa-
tional facilities for their young that they spend
dollars per capita per year for education: just
about what the United States. the richest country
earth. spends. Not very benighted, these Uruguay
ans.-Sel.

Origin Of Word ''Yank. /"

The nickname "Yank," as applied to the Amer
lean expeditionary force soldiery, has something Of
charm in the tradition of the word says writer in
Stars and Stripes Persons interested in the history
of words may have noted with interest footnote IN
Coopers THE Deerslayer."
It is singular there should be any question con-
corning the origin of the well-known sobriquet of
Yankee" Nearly all the old writer's who speak Of
the Indians first known to the colonists make them
pronounce the word English as "Yengeese." Even
at this day it is provincialism of New England
to say English instead Of Inglish. and there is
close conformity of sound between English" and
"Yengeese," especially if the latter word,
as was probably the case. be pronounced short.
The transition from "Yengeese,'' thus pro-
nounced to Yankees is quite easy. If the former is
pronounced "Yangis' it is almost identical with
Yankees" and Indian words have seldom been
spelled as they pronounced. The
liquids of the Indians would easily convert En-" in
to 'Yen."-Sel.
