Penns Grove Chamber of Commerce


The regular meeting Of the Chamber
Of Commerce in the High school audi
torium was fairly attended on Monda
evening. +. a. Gentieu, president. pre-
sided. Secretary Walter Edgar re-
ported that progress was being made
in the settling here of new industries
He had also had other inquiries. He
was always glad to report the favorable
condition of the Borough Yet there
were individuals who might help i'm
prove conditions by taking personal
pride and energy in making properties
more attractive.
A letter was read from Mrs. Abigail
Kidd, Of Camden. expressing a desire
TO have sewers in the Borough.
J. 2. Ross stated he knew Of a family
with several children. He did not be-
lieVe they went to school.
The president stated the Borough lost
six cents every day a pupil was absent
Penns Grove has some very ornamental
marshals who have little to do since
prohibition caIae and they might be
of much use in looking up delinquents.
Why should il not be made part of
their duty?
The question Of fire protection was
brought up by the secretary. There
might be improvements. clearing in
fiammabIe things from back yards.
Some expect great things when the fire
company gets in the new Borough hall.
Others ask what has that to do with
having a live company now which
should see that each fire plug was in
order by flushing it. Some say the
plugs and lead ends have not been
opened for three years. Some wonder
whether an employe Of the Water
Company at the head of the fire COM
pany has anything to do with the in
activity of using water and fire prac-
tice.
But it was said the fire plugs had
been painted. They are ornamental if
not useful

contend with. Some of the gentlemen
of color in Salem ask IS a day TO husk
corn. \ free auto ride to and from
work is a special indueement. Two

to supply all their wants. They are
gentlemen of leisure the rest of the

charge it up to the consumers like

When he fell his two sons were at

that the boys sure did give them

Tile indian and the World
War.

@ .9s That the red men of the United
States played az important part in
the great world war goes without
saying. Daily heroic incidents are
,..sing brought to light in which
tie American Indian played his
part.
In Columbia county, Wisconsin,
there were no less that fifteen
Winnebagos who enlisted in the
Portage and Mauston companies.
They fought gallantly. Many of
them were killed.
Charles White Eagle tells of the
battle of Argonne wood. He
stood a few feet from Foster De-
korra, Winnebago, when the
latter received mortal wound.
Dekorra was a descendant of
noted chiefs who figured in the
early history of Wisconsin and the
Black Hawk war Dekorra for
many years lived in a tepee outside
the Portage city limits, and his
rieces and nephews still maintain
the Indian camp in its primitive
shape at Big Spring, four miles
north of Portage. There are three
large tepees and the Indians make
their home AS in the early days.
Their work consists of assisting
farmers Of the vicinity in wood
chopping and part of the season
they make their living by trap
ping.
( Foster Dekorra's two sons came
to enlist when the war broke out.
The father followed them anc said
that he did not want to stay home
alone and begged the enlistin9
officer to take him. His age was

Word Of Honor.

Mr.. Alex Mckenzie, Sr., resid-
ing in this village, tells this story
of some of his experience during
the War of the Rebellion, he be-
ing at that time a soldier in the
Confederate army.
While on picket duty across a
small stream, he joined in conver.
sation with q Union soldier, on
guard on the opposite side of the
stream. The Union soldier, whose
name was Gillispee, of Galesville,
Illinois, Invited him TO come
over and have a social smoke with
him as it was very lonely. McKen-
zie says that he hesitated and in
formed his yankee adversary that
he, too, was lonely aud as much as
he would like to come across and
visit he hardly dared to Dc SO as
be might be taken prisoner. Then
the yank said: don't you think
that l have any respect for my
word of honor! come over and l
will give you my word of honor
that YOU will not be molested but
I will treat you as a friend.' At
this assurance Mckenzie decided
to wade across the river, which
was only about four feet oecp, and
visit with the lonely yank.
The two soldiers sat down and
began . most animated converse

Becker County War History.

A movement has been started
for the compilation of an accurate
and authentic history of the part
taken by Becker county in the
World War. Daniel Nelson and
Arlem Hurley of Detroit have
established an Office there and are
busy making preparations for the
collection of the necessary data to
make the history complete in every
way.
To make the volume complete
and authentic, it is necessary for
those in charge of the compilation
to receive at the earliest possible
moment a photograph of every
man in the county who was in the
service in any capacity, accom-
panied by the service record of
each man. :
Becker county soldiers are re-
auested to send in their photo
graphs at once. They will be
carefully preserved and returned
to the sender. If no photograph
is available, an order on your local
photographer will be sent for =
new photo. Get busy ard assist
in this very meretorious work.

tlOn on different topics, especially
of the probable close of the war
and return to home and dear ones.
Time passed rapidly and unnoticed
to tie two bronzed soldier boys,
one in blue and the other in grey.
OF a sudden, and to the surprise
of both, there appeared on the
scene the Union relief officer
and guard. Coming to attention
the officer, addressing Gillispec
said in stern tones, "what does
this mean? place this man under
arrest aud take him to the guard
house," referring to Mckenzie.
Gillispee turned and faced the
officer and, said he: II have given
him my word of honor to see him
back safe and l am going to keep
my word as long as my ammuni-
tion lasts" Turning to Mckenzie
he said: Proceed and return
across the river and to your l'osta''
And, as Mckenzie states, L
waited for no second invitation
but forded the river and back to
my post in hurry"
Several years after the war Mr.
Mckenzie had occasion to travel
through Galesvill, Illinois, in
which town his = union soldier
friend had told him he resided at
the breaking out of Eostilities, and
he decided to make inquiries con.
cerning his former friend. His
inquiries elected the fact that
John Gillispee was then a prosper
our farmer and lived a short dis
tance out of town; arriving at the
place designated him as the John
Gillispee farm, he proceeded up
the walk towards the house; before
reaching the house he spied :: a
middle aged man engaged in some
work about the farm buildings;
approaching him he bid him the
time of day and inquired if he
we're John Gillispee, the farmer
nodded assent; and did be serve in
a certain Illinois Regt.; and did he
remember being on guard on the
banks of certain river and of
inviting a Confederate guard from
across the river to come over and
visit with him, etc., to this the
farmer also nodded assent. "Well'',
said Mckenzie, II am the John
nv Reb.' that waded across the
river and visited with you." AS
may be imagined the two former
foes were delighted to meet again
and, this time, as citizens united
in one nation. Mr.. Mckenzie was
persuaded to visit at the farm over
night and the two grizzleS war;

reservation days." is no more fit
to be guide in paths beyond his
ken; to put it tritely. he is as
valueless as a last years bird nest.
And let it be understood that
under one aspect I have in mind
some, who though not yet fifty
years old, are senile in mind. not
having accommodated themselves
to changes brought by advancing
time. And I would be doing an
injustice not to mention some men
elderly in years but whose brains
are active, and whose thoughts
have valve because they have for
many year studied situations and
attempted reforms in relations
between the Indians and the
government. They have had the
education which comes from books
and have read history pro6tably.
Such men while remaining in
physical health must be counted in
the category of the 'educated and
intelligent members'' mentioned
by Mr.. Dickens, as we'll as the
"vOunp men" also in mind.
There are in the 'rumps'', the
bolters, men whose minds early
took on the moss of ages and
whose grandmothers are not yet
'decrepit, men who are not within
the category of Mr.. Dickens as
potential leaders, because they
have wilfully refused to see light,
preferring like the ostrich to bury
their heads in the sand rather than
meet bravely the progress OF
events.
No, young men of this kind, Mr..
Dickens, doesn't mean you.
And more, public common sense
won't recognize such men as lead
ers; if you want recognition, show
that you are deserving by good
works. Your mere names are not
obnoxious, its what you do under
the cover of old moth eaten gar.
ments bearing fragrance of the
breech clout.
Think in new terms and help
guard tribal interests sanely, and
make yourselves ornaments to
society which at present you are
not.
Only as you adapt yourselves to
a new culture can you hope to be
numbered among the elect.
Through THE ToMAHAwK, my
brethren, / urge you to come out
of the forest and stand in the busy
avenues of progress, and become
enlightened Americans with Amer

A Communication.

Editor, ToMAHAwK:
I was very much and agreeably
impressed by your issue OF July
18th.
The description of the proceed
ings of the General Council for
one thing, and the photographic
expression of ideas by Superin-
tendent Dickens for another. From
your description of the council
proceedings gather that the in
fluence of Cotfeyism is of the past,
that the Indian Office has turned
over new leaf in its book of
("rules and regulations" so far as
the Chippewas of Minnesota are
concerned.
This is fine, and now let US hope
that the new policy of the Office
together with wisdom on the part
of the Chippewas will bear much
fruit. So. ~........ -. ; -
In the past Che Office has been
guided by the advice of such men
as Inspector Linnen and Ex-agent
Hinton, who listened to such men
as Ah bow geshig, George Walt
ers ct al, and wno in turn listened
to the words of the malevolently
industrious, Coffey, who in turn
listened to an intense egotism.
This is not to exhonerate the
White Earth local crowd who in
large measure had inspiration of
its own, and which led to disturb
ances somewhat independent OF
Mr.. Coffey's instigation. And the
source is not difficult to find, it is
traceable to what Superintendent
Dickens calls "crude customs and
habits of old reservation days"
these habits and customs having
as parents the ignorance of the old
time Indian.
Perhaps it was too much to ex-
pect of the Indian Office to revo-
lnt;on;Ze and recreate itself in one
day, 1t did not, nor even evolu-
tionize. Yet some how q new
light has shown and it has affected
the Office. May it not be that
after Superintendent Dickens as
sumed charge his reports of con-
,ditions proved to be the light that
has Influenced the Office.
Let US hope that now the Office
will work in harmony with the
''educated and intelligent mem
bers, the young men of the Min
nesota Chippewas who are destined
to take the lead in the matter ol
conducting tribal AFFAIRS" as Mr.
Dickens sees.
Under old-time thought the
elders we're. supposed to be the
stewards of wisdom, and it was the
custom among all Indians to con
suit "our old men, IS the saying
went. This may have been vel
enough ia the matter of purely
tribal affairs relating to the chase
and war. The old men had th'
education of experience, and coule
be wise counselors. But the lif'
of the modern Indian has gottel
beyond bow and arrow, tomahawI
and scalpine knife, and because o
complex relations and large
environments the modern mai
needs wider views in order Il
meet new situations.

YOUR AFTERsELF.

1t is worth while to remember that
IS to be, says writer. You cannot
change his nature much, but you can
develop the best in him till it oversha-
dows the worst. The life of a man at
forty will be what was in his heart at
twenty-one.
And a father may say to his boys
something like this, which in one way
or another l have said to thousands of
boys in this and other countries:
your first duty in life is toward
your afterseIf. So live that your aft
erself-the man you ought to be-may
in his time be possible and actual.
Ear away in the years he is waiting
his turn. His body, his brain, his soul,
are in your boyish hands. He cannot
help himself.
What will you leave for him?
"Will it be body unspoiled by lust
or dissipation; mind trained to think
and act; a nervous system true as a
dial in its response to the truth about
you. Will you, Boy, let him come as a
man among men in his time?
"Or will you throw away his inheri-
lance before he has had the chance to
touch IT? Will you turn over to him
a brain distorted, mind diseased; a
will unframed to action; spinal cord
grown through and through with the
6egl grass we call Wild oats?

might have been shall never be?
