five TRIBES PAY
THEIR OWN way
Education of Oklahoma Indians
Is Almost Entirely Paid
for Out of Own Funds.
AGRICULTURE IS EMPHASIZED
Have Nine Boarding Schools, Seven
Contract Schools and,2 ,306 Public
Districts-Industrial Work
Featured.

Muskogee, Okla.-The modern
American Indian may be said to be
paying his own way in pursuit Of an
education, for nearly all funds ex-
pended In the education of the Indians
Of Oklahoma belong TO the tribe ad-
ministered under the department of the
interior, according to Ii. G. calhoun,
supervisor of the Five Civilized Tribes
schools here. These schools form
the largest unit Of Indian schools op-
Grated under one supervision in the
country, he added.
The supervision Of the schools Of
the five civilized tribes-Cherokee
ChOctaw, Chickasaw, Greek and
Seminole-has to deal with three
phases Of school activity which are
ranked In Importance as follows:
Tribal boarding schools, public day
schools and private contract schools.
Have Nine Boarding Schools.
There are nine tribal boarding
schools and seven contract schools,
while the public day school system
includes 2,3O6 districts with an enroll
ment Of about $4,000 Indian children
The supervisors office has jurisdic-
ton over the Indian pupil only in
these day schools, not over the public
school as such.
The tribal boarding schools are main
tained for each distinct tribe and the
completed educational plants. Each Is
equipped with kitchen, dining room,
dormitory, laundry, hospital and facili-
ties for Industrial and academic edu-
cation. Most Of these schools have a
large acreage which Is titled and
the product used In the maintenance,
Of the school.
Emphasize Industries
Agriculture is emphasized in all the
Indian industrial schools, although shop
work. carpentry, leather machine and
metal work, hOmemaking for girls and
scientific home economics are all a
part Of the industrial course. The
industrial program Is part-time proc
ess, Mr.. Calhoun explained, with the
pupil devoting half his time to in
dustrial education and half to aca-
demic instruction. The academic
courses are designed particularly for
the Indian.
Six Of the contract schools are de-
nOmlnatiOnal institutions, according to
Mr. Calhoun. while the seventh Is a
state agricultural school. Courses in
these institutions include the indus
trial and academic.

MAKE COLLECTION OF GERMS
Institutions In Europe and the United
States That Preserved Them
for Investigators.

The first guide book" of what may
he popularity called the germ ZOO"
has just been issued by the British
Medical research council. The body,
as previously announced, hit on the
happy idea of making a national col
lection Of living germs of disease so
that any doctor or Investigator re-
quiring some particular germ for his
work might be able to get 1t at once,
alive and active.
There are similar collections at the
PaSteur institute, Paris, at the Muse
um of Natural History, New York,
and at Vienna. The British collec-
tion is housed at the Lister institute,
and fresh additions of new STRAINS"
and forms are constantly being
added.
The catalogue gives the name OF
each germ, the name Of It's donor, and
the year of the git.

ARMENIA NEEDS FOOD
Supply Is Exhausted, American
Relief Workers Report.
Bread 10 Made From all Sorts Of Sub
stances-Break-up Of Winter Re-
veaIs Terrible Conditions
Seed Grain Needed.

New York.-A cablegram received
by Charles V. Vickrey, general secre-
tary Of Near East Relief, dated Alex
andropol, tells Of how investigation by
American relief workers has revealed
terrible starvation among refugees and
orphans with the breakup of winter in
the mountain villages of central Ar
menia.
Foodstuffs throughout the area are
exhausted, the cable says, and con-
tinues: Bread Is made from all sorts
of substitutes, including flax, chaff and
sawdust, having no appreciable food
value. The people are extracting un-
dlgested materials from old refuse and
giving 1t to the children. Health con-
ditiOns are critical. Gastric and in
testinal troubles prevail, due to NAL
nutrition. A large per cent Of the
people are suffering from skin diseases.
One-fourth Of the adults are incapaci-
tated and bedrldden.
I'm the villages visited there are
1900 orphans who should be removed
Immediately, if they are to live. Even
In small villages the weekly death list
includes ten children. In many villages
all children have lost their hair during
the winter. Several cases were so des-
perate that the people resorted to eat
ing human flesh, which practice was
sharply punished by the authorities.
Officials said they are doing all they
can to prevent it, but the people lose
their senses from hunger. At Nah
maudchuk a family Of fifteen persons
was visited a month ago. Now only
three of the family remain. The dead
include all the male members Of the
, family. Great anxiety is expressed
about securing seed and grain for
spring planting. The head man of the
largest village said: II we can secure
seed we shall be on our feet by mid
summer. If we don't get seed we are
doomed to DEATH"
Near East Relief has sixty American
relief administrators, doctors and
nurses in this area. During the winter,
however, their supplies and resources
have been so reduced that they have
been able to do little more than care
for the large number of orphans al
ready accepted in institutions, a single
orphanage numbering $4,000 children.
Secretary Vickrey declares that not
only the lives Of the orphaned children
this spring, but the food supply for
the entire population next winter de-
pends on the prompt dispatch within
the next few weeks of grain for food
and seed from the United States.

STRADIVARIUS BRINGS $4,000
Maker Received 80 Francs for Il
When He Made II In
1885.

Paris.-A Stradivarius violin, for
which the maker, AntOnius Stradl-
varius, received 80 francs when he
made it at Cremona in 1876, has just
been sold here for 103, 400 francs, in
Guiding the war tax. This Is equiva-
lent at current rates of exchange to
about $1,000.
The violin was for long time the
property of the late Charles Lamour-
eux, founder and conductor Of the
famous Lamoureux orchestra
The recent tests. which seemed to
establish that modern-made violins can
not be distinguished from ancient ones
by their tone, do not seem to have
affected the price Of ancient instru-
ments, IL this sale is any criterion.

HOW DOCTORS
TREAT COLDS
AND THE FLU
First Step in Treatment Is a Brisk
Purgative With Calotabs, the
Purified and Refined Calomel
Tablets That Are NauseaIeas,
Safe and Sure.

Doctors have found by experience
that. no medicine for colds, coughs.
sore throat and influence can be de-
pended uYon for full effectiveness
until the liver is made thoroughly
active. That Is why the first step in
the treatment is the new, nausealcss
calomel tablets called Calotabs, which
are free from the sickening and weak
ening effects of the old style calom2l
Doctors also point out the fact that
an active liver may go a long way DO
wards preventing influenza and colds
and is one of the most important
factors in enabling the patient to
successfully withstand an attack and
ward off pneumonia.
One or two Calotabs on the tongue
at bed time, with a swallow of water
that's all. No salts, no nausea, nor
the slightest interference with your
eating, pleasure or work. Next
morning your cold has vanished, your
liver is active, your system is puri-
fed, and you are feeling fine, with a
hearty appetite for breakfast Gen
uine Calotabs are sold only in orig
inal sealed packages, price thirty-fve
cents for the large, family package;

He remained immovable-i in an over

was amazed at something of which,
up to that moment, he had not had

evident.
