ONEIDA INDIANS
 PLAN CELEBRATION

Green Bay, Wis, July 12-Oneida Indians plan a centennial homecom- ing celebration here in August to mark the hundredth anniversary of the coming of the Oneida Indians to Wisconsin after they had been crowd ed out of their hunting and fishing grounds in New York state.
 When they settled here in the fall of 1921 this part of the country was a vast wilderness with few white set tiers.
 Several thousand Indians are ex- pected for the celebration which takes place Aug. l to 5. The Memo minees, Chippewas, Stockbridges Munsees, BrothertoEns, Pottawata- mics and Canadian Oneidas are look ed for in great number.
 Old Indian customs will be observ- ed- Indian games will be played and an Indian council will be held.
 This centennial celebration may be the Oneidas' first and last to be held, as the Indians are rapidly forgetting their old ways and are entering com merciaI and business life of every community
 Personal invitations will be extend ed by the Indians to President Hard ing, Commissioner of Indian Affairs Burke and Governor Blaine of Wis conSin-

Some lessons in How to be Hap py Though Married" might be ob- tained from a. story in a recest issue of Photoplay Magazine, in which Irene Castle, now Mrs. Robert Fireman. sets forth her views on the subject through Ada Patterson, the noted ma agazine writer.

 When the head of the Castle School of Dancing came back from London, she told me how interested England is in the dance, that it is as deeply interested as this country was seven years ago, and told me that London wanted very much to see me dance was interested I had not intended to dance again, but I had not anticipated this.

Back From Studying In

Miss Scala is well known in musical circles in this city, having studied here and in New Haven and New York before she decided on remembered for her excellent solo work in the choir of St. Augustine's church, where she sang for year prior to her trip abroad.
 But, like all true Americans, Mary was glad to get home again!
 Italy is delightful; Naples IS especially interesting, but America is home.'' she said, simply.
 ''But I did enjoy my work there and there is much about the Old World atmosphere that is pleasing. The people for instance, are so warm hearted and kind. They tried to keep me from being homesick, but fear they didn't succeed very well, for really did suffer from being away from my own kind and kin.

 <"To me the Pilgrims come,~ the voice declaims, after reciting the visits of traditional Morse men and of English, French and Dutch adventurers. The prologue concludes:
 +Of me, the rock in the ooze, they have made the cornerstone of the Republic
 Scene after scene follows, passing from the Norsemen crossing the har- bor in their galley and fighting with the Indians on the shore, to authentic history. The visits of early explor- CTS, including John Smith and Cham plain, are depicted in ta.bleaux, con- c1udileg with a view of an empty and pestilence which swept away nearly all the Indians from the vicinity shortly before the year of the Pill grims' arrival.
 The scene shifts to England, where the struggles of the Puritans for the right of independent thinking and worship eare portrayed. The Pilgrim Fathers themselves then appear, at Scrooby, planning their migration to The Netherlands. and later enjoying Dutch tolerance and hospitality. Next comes the departure from Delftshaven for the New World, fol- lowed by the signing of the Compact | in the cabin of the Mayhower, the landing of Provincetown, on the tip | of Cape Cod, on November 25, 1920, the final landing at Plymouth, the dealings with the Indians, hardships of the first winter and the return of the Mayfiower, leaving behind the remnants of the little Pilgrim band.

 said Miss Scala, with a smile, was our own American ice cream. am especially fond of it, and, as you probably know, it isn't made in Italy. The nearest to it is what they call .crem molate,' a frozen cream mixture, much coarser and not so well favored as our ice cream This is sold in milk parlors,' and is rather expen- sive, as it carries a heavy luxury tax. Milk, butter and cream are also sold at these parlors and they are the scenes of many neighborhood gather ings.'
 Has Secured Engagement.
 Miss Scala is more fortunate than most American girls who go over to study, for she has come back with a contract to sing next season with the San Carlo Opera company, and will begin tour of this country in Octo- Der. This is a great honor, for Miss Scala, for she is the first American girl to be received into the organiza- ton, which is composed entirely of Italian singers. ,'--
 But she is well prepared to take her place in this splendid body, for while in Naples she specialized in con- cert pieces and operatic roles, learn ing thoroughly ten operas, which she can sing in Italian, English, Spanisf or French. Her instructor, the great Ferdinando De Lucia, whose tenor records are such favorites on Ameri- can. photographs, promises grea1 things for her.
 Miss Scala's head has not beer turned however, by all her good for
 tune. She is loyal to Bridgeport ant will give her first public recital her' early in September.

Chancellor Wirth before a crowded
Reichstag assembly to-day submitted
the Governments tax programme pro-
posing total taxation Of $4,000. 900, 900
paper marks for the coming year.
Chancellor Wirth makes the fulfil
ment Of this programme conditional
on the Allies removal Of the occupa-
ton sanctions and the closing Of the
Rhineland frontiers against importa-
tions Of luxuries and on the Allies
conceding the justice Of the German
plebiscite decision in Upper Silesia.
DR.. Helfferich declared that the de-
mands Of the Allies, together with the
cost of the allied armies of occupa-
ton and other levies, imposed impos-
sible burdens upon the German people.
The amount of taxation was finally
decided upon after many weeks Of dis
cussion by the Cabinet and after diff
ferences with the National Economic
Parliament
Chancellor wirth's programme calls
for half the money to be raised by d.
rect and half by indirect taxation. The
income, inheritance and corporation
taxes are greatly increased. The tax
on business transactions has been made
slightly lighter. There is no increase
In the tax on tobacco and alcohol, but
numerous existing dispensations have
been retracted. A heavy tax on coal.
light and matches also is outlined.
The Economic Parliament, represent
ing business interests, opposed the in
crease In the tax on business transac-
tions and especially the heavier COR
poration tax, but the Government in
sisted on maintaining a balance between
direct and Indirect taxes, aiming thereby
to overcome the opposition Of the labor

Karl Helfferich, representing the Ma
tionalists, protested that many OF
Chancellor Wirth's proposals would
more than double the taxes, which are
already more than so per cent, declar-
ing that now the programme does not

enough to die.
