EACH HAS PLACE IN LODGE
-
According to Custom, the Occupants
Of Indian Tepee Have Their %
Allotted Space.

AS there are six different ways Of
building camp fires, 1t should be eX-
planned that my friends built theirs ac-
cording to the Ojlbway custom; that is,
In the so-called "lodge fashion," by
placing the sticks upright, leaning them
together, and crossing them over one
another in the manner of lodge poles.
When the fire was lighted, the wind
shields formed perfect draft to carry
the smoke up through the permanently
open fiue in the apex of the structure,
and one soon realized that Of all tents
or dwellings, no healthier abode was
ever contrlved by man. Indeed, II the
stupid, meddlesome agents Of civilizn-
tion had been wise enough to have left
the Indians In their tepees, instead of
forcing them to live in houses--the
ventilation Of which was never under
stood-they would have been spared at
least one of civilizations Diseases
tuberculosls-and many more tribes
men would have been alive today.
On entering an Indian tepee one
usually finds the first space on the
right of the doorway occupied by the
woodplle; the next by the wife; the
third, by the baby, and the fourth by
the husband. Opposite these, on the
other side Of the fire, the older chill
dren are ranged. To the visitor Is
allotted the warmest place in the lodge,
the place Of honor, farthest from and
directly opposite the doorway. When
the dogs are allowed in the tepee. they
know their place to be the first space
on the left, between the entrance and
the children.-Arthur Hemlng in
Worlds Work.

LIMIT TO FURS' MASQUERADE
Dealers Are Prohibited by Law From
Giving Certain Names to OBJ
Vlous limitations.

Aesop's well-known fable of the
ass in the lions skin was not directed
at the fur trade, but undoubtedly
some people have thought of pos
sible application. The value of euphe-
mlsms has been recognized by fur
dealers as by most other tradesmen,
but Miss Agnes Lait, the most recent
popular authority on furs, asserts that
euphemisms In the fur trade have de-
clded limitations. Donkey masquer-
aiding as lion would be Indignantly re-
jected by any dealer in good standing.
The fur trade has organized strongly
to protect the public and has laid
down the law on what is fair in furs.
America Is now the world market
for furs, but the code of the London
chamber of commerce, along with the
Canadian conservation report, Is cited
as authority for the nomenclature
According to these rules, Brer Rab-
bit, that ubiquitous little beast Is en-
Joined from masqueradlng us beaver,
sable, ermlne, chlnchilla, fox or seal.
The goat may not appear In public
disguised as bear or leopard. Kid
must not call himself lamb, nor may
pOssum play beaver. 1t Is taken for
granted that beaver will not wish to
play p0ssum. On the other hand, goat
may aspire to be bear-goat or possum
may become 'beaver-possum. Kids
may be karakul kids IL they so desire
The white bunny may become mock
ermine, If 1t cOvets the distinction,
and mock fox Is pardonable vanity
in white hare.
All this suggests an increased con
fidence that In the passing show upon
the boulevard things are as they seem,
at least below the neck If complex
ions are not always what they seem,
that is the fair publlc's own business.
Neither this nor the matter of mock
blends and blond brunettes seems one
that can be regulated by law.

RECRUITING FOR CIVIL WAR
Woodcuts Of the Period Show How
II Was Done In the Dark
Days Of 1858.

An old woodcut In a Madison ave-
nue. plcture-store window shows how
recruiting was done In City Hall park
in Civil war days-1868, to be exact.
Over shanty in the park is large
painted sign with red headlines, which
reads, according to the New York Her
aid:
"Thirty Thousand Volunteers Want
ed: County bonus, cash down, $500;
state bounty, $75; United States boun-
ty, for new recruits, 1902. Total to
new recruits, $877; United States
bounty to veteran soldiers, 800; total
to veteran soldiers, $777"
Less this handy sum fail to attract
the desired number Of patriots, plac-
ard at the left announces that SIS
"hand money" will be paid Ito any
party who brings recruit" and
among the throng Of citizens and SOL
dlers about the door one sees at least
two recruits, one of them apparently
in the last stage Of fatigue or IntOxi-
cation, being hailed to the recruiting
booth by their fellows.

Part V-Summary,

!. To summarize, we wish to ex-
plain certain requests for needs not
previously set forth as asked for in
several places in the budget. Under
General Control" column 4, the
amount of $3.50 is required, as opposed
to $3.50 for the year 1920-1921, this
additional $500 being necessary to
pay for publishing the annual report
of the Board of Education, which the
law requires.
2. Under Maintenance of School
Plant" column 4, the amount of $1,000
for repair of buildings and upkeep of
grounds is necessary, and $4,000 for
repair and replacement of equipment
is required. Under Capital outlay
the addition of two new rooms at
Kempton, making it a four-teacher
school instead of a two-teacher school,
requires an expenditure for furniture
and equipment, and is set forth at 3d.
600 after additional equipment of old
buildings for needs at Kempton and
other similar needs elsewhere. The
above $1,000 and $4,000 and this
$4,000 make the total of $4,000 re-
ferred to in Part II hereof, under ED

The other estimated receipts as an
ticipated for 1921-1922 follow the
above receipts as set forth in the bud
get. The total estimated receipts
from all sources other than county
levy is given as $57,06688. These es-
timated receipts have been set forth
appropriately in column No. 5 in the
budget, and deductions made in accor.
dance Herewith from corresponding
amounts required as set forth in col
umn No. 4. Accordingly, the sum of
1888, 500 is the amount which will be
needed to be raised by local taxation
in order to maintain all the schools
as proposed, set forth as $133, 900, and
in order to provide the fund of $780,
600 as requested after new buildings
and equipment.
II. In reference to the present fl
nancial status, or the unexpended bal
ance that will be on hand on July 81 g,
1921, we desire to state that we are
unable to set forth the same with any
degree of accuracy. The inability to
come with any degree of certainty to
definite conclusions in reference to
the final financial situation for the
current year has its origin in the fact
that there yet remains five months in
the school year of 1920-1921, an equal
amount of payments being necessary
to teachers for salaries and other vari-
able expenses. However, we submit
below certain sums that we are conf
dent will be secured before July 81,
1921. If any additional information is
desired thereon, the same will be writ
ten upon request. Funds yet to be re-
ceived, we estimate as follows:
