The American
Model
Choctaw Indian Chosen by French
Sculptor for Statue Of
American Fighting Mar"


A Choctaw Indian, Otis w. Leader
of Oklahoma, has been chosen by an
eminent French sculptor as model for
his statue of "the American fighting
man." A brief resume of Leaders
service in France amply warrants his
man" and his unmixed American blood
justifies his selection as typical
American.
There can be no question of Amer
ica's pride in her aborigines, says the
Cleveland Plain Dealer. The Indian,
who was cordially hated by the pi-
oneers and shamefully despOiled and
exploited by the successors of the pi-
oneers, has become in the present gen
GRAFTON popular, hOnored and justly
respected citizen. He has proved his
merit. Since the white man has ceased
TO accelerate his deterioration the In
dian has ceased to be a vanishing
race" He has become an assertive
citizen, standing on his own feet and
making his own way. And when
there was war the Indian of today
fought with all the courage and grim
determination his painted ancestors.
The French sculptor made wise
choice when he selected Private Lead
or as his type specimen of the Amer
lean soldier. 1t is fitting tribute TO
the red Americans who fought so vail
antly for white civilization and nc
white American will begrudge the
honor.

Pieces on Her Golden
Wedding.

London.-A promise made twenty
five years ago has just been redeemed
by Lady Pender of Donhead, st. An
drew, Willis.
At her silver wedding celebration in

turned their silver coins when Sir
James and Lady Fender celebrated

half sovereign.

Asia Minor SkinIess Fruit
Has Pit and Edible Kernel;
1t Is Both Nut and Peach

The connecting link between the
sweet almond and the bitter kernel of
the peach pit is found in the nut peach
Of the Persian gulf and Tigro-Eu-
pirates valley (nuzhapersika), sold in
many American cities by foreign fruit
importers. This combination of a
luscious fruit and choice nut in one is
unique with single exception-an am
Der colored plum of the Caspian re-
giOn which has an almond-like kernel.
The nut peach differs from the ordi-
nary peach in that 1t has no skim the
surface is waxllke with beautiful red
tints which cause a striking resem-
blance to a confection. You do not
peel 1t any more than you would peel
a strawberry. 1t Is very fragrant.
Darwin's theory, according to the
Scientific American, that the common
peach Is a descendant of the almond
finds substantiation in the nut peach,
though the scientist probably had no
knowledge of the intermediary fruit.
The rough shell which incases the
ordinary bitter peach kernel has little
resemblance to the comparatively
smooth, light almond shell; but ii is
said that willy Levantine almond ex-
porters sometimes adulterate their
almond shipments with peach stones,
the ridges of which have been worn
smooth by friction. The pit Of the nut
peach resembles that Of the common
peach. 1t is large, rough, almost as
hard to crack as black walnut and
is "free"-that is, it drops out when
the fruit is halved.

Deep Voices Require More
Force Than the Sopranos

Delicate scientific measurements
have proved that contralto. barytone,
and bass singers use far more force
than soprano and tenor singers need
The explanation is that the lower
tones leave wider space between
the vocal cords and require more
vibration Of the membranes, more air,
and much more force. 1t is said that
that Is the reason woman can out
talk man. He has to use from
seven to sixteen times as much lung
