The Cree Indians have an interest
ing theory as to the origin of man.
according to a book ON the traditions
and myths of that tribe written by a
Wisconsin professor. The Lord made
man out of clay, according to one
theory but when he baked the clay for
the first batch, it came out of the oven
underdone and white, which accounts
for the palefaee. The second effort
proved overdone and black. The third
baking was exactly right and came
out red, which accounts for the Indian.
Still leaving us at a loss to account
for the race of the hard boiled.-Kan-

the early fifties. About 1850 they
came to Baraboo, where Mr.. Hoadley
engaged in the carpenter and con
tractor trade To this union were
born five children, three of whom
died in infanoy. Another daughter,
Mrs. Charles Lee, passed away four
years ago and Mrs. Stanley is the
only survivor, Mr.. Hoadley having
passed away twenty-one years ago.
Seven years ago, Mrs. Hoadley fell
and broke her hip and this made it
impossible for her to get out or take
an active part in affairs, but she re-
tanned her faculties and made every
effort to help herself, that she might
not be burden to others. During all
this time, she was given every care by

WORRY THAT KILLS

Self-destructiOn is on the increase
in the United States. In Cook county,
according to figures published by the
coroner's office the number of sui
cides during the first seven months
of this year was about "a per cent
larger than that in the corresponding
period of last year In the country
as a whole the increase in suicides
during the first six months of this
year is estimated at not less than
1874 per cent!
In the United States the number
of human beings-men, women and
children-who took their own lives
in the first half of 1921, the public is
informed. was 7.O16 The number of
children was 507.
There has been much speculative
discussion of the cause, or causes of
the increase in the suicide rate. The
save-a-Life league, a national organ
ization believes that unemployment
accounts for the greater part of the
increase and that after-war despon-
dency and maladjustment is the next
major factor.
