STORIES OF
GREAT INDIANS
Copyright. 1922, Western Newspaper Union
SEQUOYAH, THE CADMUS OF
THE CHEROKEES
B4 Elmo scott Uatson

THIS is the story of an Indian who
Il rose to fame not as warrior nor rs
orator, but as the inventor of an al
phabet for his people which enabled
them to write and read their own Ian
guage. Sequoyah (Sikwayi) of the
Cherokees was born in Tennessee In
1850. The boy grew up among the In
dams unacquainted with the white
mans tongue or any Of his arts.
An accident made him d cripple
for life and he became a craftsman
i'll silverWork and Il skilled mechanic.
Ee also made Photographs showing the
great deeds of the Cherokee on the
Warpath. In 1909, impressed by the
value of the white mans talking
leaves" (books), Sequoyah conceived
a system of writing, suitable to the
Cherokee tongue. Undismayed by
ridicule, he persisted in his STUDIES
until convinced that the Cherokees
had Sc syllables, which in various com
binations constituted their vocabulary.
His next problem was to design sym
boIs for each syllable. ana that being
done, he taught his ~siX-year-oId daugh-
ter to build words from these symbols.
In 1871 Sequoyah demanded a trial
for his alphabet, and IN a public test
he proved its worth. The chiefs Ell
dorSed his invention and C]herokees of
all ages learned the alp abet with en-.
thusiasm. The next year he left his
village in Georgia TO visit the Chero-
KEGS in Arkansas and carry his inven-
ton TO them. Again he WAS success
full. Two years later parts of the Ri
bic We're printed in Cherokee. In 1928,
the Cherokee Phoenix, the first period
ical ever printed in any Indian Ian
guage, was published as a weekly at
New Echota, Ga.
When S%equoyah's tribesmen were
removed to Indian Territory he was
the great leader in organizing the re-
united nation, But he was little inter
ested in politics. Among his people
was the tradition Of a lost Cherokee
tribe that had wandered west before
the Revolution.
Although Sequoyah was her more
than eighty years old, he resolved to
carry his message of education to the
lost tribe. His quest led him into Mex
ico and there, in August, 1913, weak
ened by %privation, he died. He was
buried in an unknown grave, but he
was to have a grander memorial than
any monument of stone. When the
big trees of California were discov-
cred. it was decided to call these giant
redwOoGs sequoias, an everlasting trib-
ute to an Indian who gave his people
a printed language Of their own.

BILLY SUNDAY"

One of the most interesting things
to the people who passed along Har-
mony Street in the warm weather for
several years past, has been a little
red Bantam Rooster, owned by Mrs.
William F. Pedrick. As a rule,
chickens do not receive credit for hav-
ing much intelligence, but "Billy Sun
day." as he was called, was certainly
a bright and well-trained chicken. He
seemed to know just what was said
to him, and refused an invita-
ton to battle, whether it was with a
person, a cat, a dog, or another
chicken, and usually, in his younger
days could put them to flight. Then
he would fly to the swing on the
porch and no triumphantly.
He will be missed, for his span of
life is over, at the age of seven years.
Though old and infirm toward the
last, he still showed that spirit of
gameness in the battle of life, so that
we feel that the evangelist would not
feel it was anything but a compliment
to have had such a narlesake.
"Billy" had many friends who will
be sorry to hear of his passing.

time but then the Labs quintet got
away in a lead. Penns Grove 500
came up, tied the score, and then led
till the half ended with the score 7
to 5. Again in the last period the
Labs forged ahead in the first part,
only to be held scoreless for about
the last eleven minutes while Penns
Grove won out.
From start to finish the game was
nip and tuck. The scoring was small
and the lead at nc time was more
than a few points. Penns Grove most
of the time stopped the Labs in their
onward rush for scoring and upon
taking the ball had less difficulty in
penetrating, only to have poor goal
throwing done. Had the men made
some of the goals thrown in the first
ten minutes the game would have
been sailed away with a good margin
for Penns Grove. William Jones led
in the scoring, while Warren Smith
and Henry Franklin played the most
well rounded game that made it a
bit too much for the Labs to break
thru toward their goal very often.
The Laboratories had their regular
team except that William Pennnock
played the first half instead of Engle.
He did fine work that is not ordinarily
done in a players first game, which
was his. Fullerton was the one who
most often got free from being covered
to get a chance at scoring. Meyer,
as always, led in the play for his team,
but in this had to go fifty-fifty with
that of the other center, Edgar HoI-
ton.
The game was the c%leanest on rec
ord and Penns Grove did clean play
ing Of the most noted kind, for they
fouled but three times in the whole
game. In the second half which Chas.
Brooks refereed, both teams showed
that they did their best not to foul.
