AND ARE DEFEATED

Richmond, Oct. 23-In a game feat
ured by attempts at almost every kind
of play known to football Randolph
Macon College defeated Gallaudet on
Mayo Island Park gridiron Saturday
afternoon by lone touchdown and
coal. The score was Z to y, and about
correctly measured the comparative
strength of the two eleveRS
Line plunges, end runs, forward
passes, double passes and trick for
nations were brought into use and
while the Gallaudet Mutes eXcelled
in the air attack, they were out
played in the other departments and
were compelled to bow to a slight
superior team.
That both elevens were in good
physical condition was shown by the
lack of necessity for substitutions.
Only one of the yellow Jackets, Z"
who started, failed to finish the game.

NATIONAL WV, C, 4 OF FICER PAYS HIGH
TRIBUTE TO FRIENDS WORKER AMONG INDIANS

A letter, paying high tribute to the
work among the Indians in the south
west Of Esther Ruger, sister of Mrs.
Amelia X. Lindley, was recently re-
ceived at the Friends Central offices
here by Miss Ruthanna Simms, exec
utive secretary of the Friends board
of home missions, from Miss Bertha
Eckert, secretary of the Indian de-
partment OF the national board of the
Young Women's Christian association.
Miss Eckert accompanying and in
cooperation with Dr. Thomas Jesse
Jones of the Phelps-Stokes fund, re-
Gently completed an educational sur
Ney among the southwestern Indians
which was undertaken by the United
States department of education. The
department selected Miss Eekert and
Dr. Jones to do this work because of
the intimate knowledge of racial con-
ditions now existing among the Amer
lean Indians. 1t was during this sur
vey that Miss Eckert first noticed
the work of Esther Ruger, Friends
home missionary in that territory.
Her comment in the letter received
by Miss Simms follows:
Enthusiastic Over Work
You Will be glad to know that the
government people, from Mr.. PEARS
to the government farmers, are most
enthusiastic over Esther Ruger's work
at Shawnee. They say that the first
time she went out to the Big Jim
Band they ordered her not to return
but she went back the next day and
after a little discovered the Indian
names of some of the old people and
called them by those names.
"Of course, the Indians were very
much pleased with that and now they
call her by the Indian name which
means The Only One! She found
that some of the public schools were
about to bar the Indian children from
attendance because they were 81
dirty. She got those children together
cleaned them up, and found clothe!
for all of them, SO the teachers il
the public schools were satisfied, anC
now those Indian children are il
school today.
''Mr. Salisbury, who is inspector o

Indian schools for the western side
of the state, says that she is doing
the best kind of missionary work that
is being done in the state today. |
know, too, how carefully she looks
after the Idian girls, for we just had
together an experience with one of
the Indian girls in Oklahoma City. 1t
must have been most difficult for
Esther with the children, without the
Lindleys, but she certainly is making
good"
Tells of Activities
The same letter contains a para
graph which gives some idea as to the
nature of the work among the Indians
which is being carried on by the
Friends missionaries. 1t reads as
follows:
"Mr Abbot and several of the Other
influential Osages have been much in
terested in the fact that Ruth Musk
rat was sent to China and said they
would go to Chilocco and Bacone tt
hear her speak. Because she is wei
known in the state, and has been t.

spect them"

ing been chosen as one of the dele
