This is not regular sermon 1t is modern talk b!
modern pastor-or, rather, series of excerpts from
|. II was delivered by the Rev. L. NJ Powers, at tn
Jhurch of Our Father, Washington. Here are some o
he things DR.. Powers said:
We have fought and won a for something no
one apparently believes in. England says she be-
ieves in democracy and, in proof of it. sends as her
representative to the United States fedglng king
France says she believes in democracy and proves
it by putting all her affairs into the hands of the
most cruel financial oligarchy the world has known
since the days of Venice.
Italy says she believes in democracy and proves
it by rapng the Tyrol Fume, and all other possible
contiguous territory.
Russia took talk about democracy seri-
ousy and all the nations that fought for democracy
are now fighting the only democracy that has not
lost its illusions.
"The people is a beast of muddy mind" said an old
Italian many years ago. He would have no need
to change his mind were he living today.
Lincoln said: "You can't fool all the people all
the time" He either died too soon or human cred
ulity has increased since his death
The ordinary fish requires some kind of bait
The human animal will grab at any bare hook that
shimmers in the sun.
Democracy is the apotheoss of medlocrity. De-
mocracy in literature means Harold Bell Wright;
in the drama, Charlie Chaplin; in religion, Billy
Sunday; in politics, the House of Representatives
of which the worst that be said is that its mem
bers really represent
Democracy is here, and we can't get rid of it,
Moreover as unsatisfactory it is, poor stumbling
stupid, msled, betrayed democracy is probably some
what better than the most benevolent autocracy
Besides, people we'll governed from above is
learning nothing
Democracy, matter how painful or expensive
its mistakes, is always learning. And life is fer the
education of men and women far more than for their
comfort
With all who say that the people do not know
enough to govern themselves, l heartily agree l:
people had sense they could make this whole VOID
Paradise in ten years There is nothing to prevent
it but their own stupidity.
When the people intelligent enough to know
good men, select competent leaders, make use of
experts in solving their common problems, eliminate
the parasites and work together, life will begin to
be worth living.
Meanwhile, democracy may be the best govern
ment in the world but if it is we need all to get
busy at once working for better democracy ash

KEEPING HER GUESSING

To keep a wife guessing, as we are
confessing,
You have to be more than dub.
That "office work" story is thread.
bare and hoary,
She knows you were down at the

To keep a wife guessing and thus
dodge a dressing
Is hard for the smartest of men.
But this is worth trying, don't stick

Just tell her the truth now and

TO be lodged in a federal senate
composed Of representative elect
ed by each natioM holding ONCE
during good behavior and acknowl-
edged as ruling chiefs throughout the
whole confederacy. Still further and
more remarkable, the confederation
was not to be limited one. It was
to be indefinitely e1pansihle. The
aVowed design OF it's proposer was to
ABOLISH war altogether. He wished the
federation to- extend until all the
tribes OF men should be included in it,
and peace should everywhere reign.
Such Is the positive testimony Of the
lroquois Themselves, and their state
ment. as will be seen, To- supported
by historical evidence"
Il
Hiawatha's experience, in creating
his league was fun OF adventure,
even Of tragedy. His first ensleavor
was to- enlist his own people in the
cause and for this purpose he sum-
moned meeting Of the chiefs and
people of the Onondaga towns. Such
an invitation coming from a chief of
his reputation was sufYfcient to at
tract large crowd. In the words in
the traditional account, They came
together along the creeks from all
parts to the general council fire"
Hiawatha was famed for his elo-
duence and was sure to impress his
hearers, but at critical moment
there appeared in the council group
a grim, forbdding figure-Atotarho-
overawing the whole assembly 1t was
wen known that he kept paid spies
to Kill those who opposed him. None
dared affront him. His silent dis
pleasure was enough to ban all argu-
ment and the meeting could do no
more than disperse.
Still undaunted and full Of his mr.
pose. Hiawatha called a second coun-
Gil which was broken up in the same
manner by the grim Atotarho. And
in answer to the third summons no
one came.
Then Hiawatha gave himself up to
INDIAN sorrow. Seating himself upon
the ground and enveloping his head in
mantle OF skins. he bowed himself
long time in silent grief His cher
ished ideal had failed Of hearing
even by his own people. Meaatime,
the only remaining member of his
family. beautiful young girl Of
twelve, had been accidentally killed
in a rushing crowd of warriors under
circumstances which seemed to have
been plotted by Atotarho. Finally.
after his wordless grief, Hiawatha
rose and left this home At little
distance from his village he came
upon his old antagonist seated by a
spring. No word passed between them.
No doubt Atotarho felt malevolent
pleasure in watching the departure.
Hiawatha, in the Indian language,
split the sky" which is to say that
he went south. He leaped into the
forest, he crossed lake. he felled a
birch and from 1t made white canoe,
whose white bark was unusual among
the people to whom he was going and
would by them be long remembered.
Down the Mohawk river he fioated In
his white canoe. This is perhaps our
only point of contact with the legends

(really connected with a mythical god
named Haron Hiawagi, collected by
Schoolcraft and others and by them
enormously attributed instead to the
historical Hiawatha) upon which
Longfeilow is known to have based
his beautiful poem.
A lake which Hiawatha crossed had
sDuds covered with fine white shells.
From them he made strings Of white
wampum to signify he came, upon

wattaa introduced himself in the

hosts and snid absoluteiy nothing. A

Indians love council gatherings
Their three joys are the hunt, the
warpath and the council fire. And
after much discussion In council
among the Mohawks. with the help Of
the powerful influence OF Dekana-
widah, the pledge of the entire Mo-
hawk nation to Hiawatha's plan was
secured,
Hiawatha and Dekanawidah next
sent their emissaries TO the neighbor-
ing nation OF the Oneida to describe to
them their proposed league OF nations
Evening star., 1919-05-04

and to ask their adherence. The
Oneida chieftain seemed impressed,
but he was not to be hurried. "Come
back in another day." was his anaw er.
and q day in the symbolic speech OF
the Indian signifed q year. year
they waited and then after council
Discussion the treaty between the,
Oneidas sud the Mohawks initiating

The next move was to the powerful
tribe Of the Onondagas. of which Hla-
watha was a chief and from whose
villages he had Travelled away many
months before. Again grim Atotarho
refused. On went the ambassadors OF
the league to the nation OF the C2yu-
gas. A wary chief they had who saw
the advantages of such q federation
to him and to his tribe. He and his
leading men promptly agreed to make
the Cayu8as the third nation in the
federation. HiawathA now devised a
way to secure the adherence Of the
powerful Onoudagas. He had good
cause to know the self-esteem OF
their leader Emiasaries from the
three nations now went to the Onon-
dagas and. acting on Hiawatha's ad-
vice. made proposals highly fiattering
to the vanity Of both ruler and peo-
pie. Onendagas should be considered
the leading nation OF the league. their
chief town should be the federal cap
ital, they should be represented by
fourteen senator's, while the other
nations should not appoint more than
ten, and as the Onondagas were to be
league. so Atotarho should be the
leading chief. No decision OF the
council could be made to which he
objected. The Onondagas held out no
longer. They at last became party to
the federation.
The assent of the Senecas was not
hard to obtain. as they were on the
extreme west of the other Iroquois
nations and were the first to bear the
onslaught of the Algonquin from the
northwest, the ancient enemy Of all
1roquois. Union was a distinct gain
to them. They were given the title OF
"Doorke keepers Of the Long House"
Following their acceptance the lead
ers Of all the Five Nations bet in con-
vention on the shores of Ononda ga

On the Iroquois reservation today
fragments Of Hiaw al tha's speeches are
quoted Yet he saw only part of his
project realized. He found that he
could not unite all the Indians who
had come in con tact with the Five Ma
tions nor make wars to cease alto
gether. Messengers were sent to the
distant Cherokees. but were unable
to make treaty. Some OF the branch

better success and their mutual alli-
ance lasted for 200 years.
Thanks to the strength of the
league. however, the territory OF the
united Iroquois became the ASYLUM of
many Indian tribes. Indeed their enc
mics were given somewhat the same
choice OF accepting the league as the
Carloyingian kings gave to the Gallo
tribes in offering them Christianity.
