STARTLING REPORT ON INDIANS
THAT HAVE APPEARED HERE

The following report from the
Washington Bureau of the Atlantic
CITY Press will indeed be startling
news to our readers who are acquaint-
ed with Chief Strong VOLTS visit here
last September, and to the more recent
visit of Red Fox, who spoke at one of
our churches just this fall and who,
in his talk at this meeting, denounced
many acts of the government, con-
demned the Bursum bill and took up a
collection "to send an Indian boy
through college. He also sold pic
lures of himself in Indian dress at a
small cost.
The article reads:
Washington, D. c., December 25th.
The Indian Bureau is unable to she
any light on the identity of one Chief
Strong Wolf, who has been appearing
before civic clubs of Wildwood, Allan
tic City, Trenton, Camden and other
towns in South Jersey, making
speeches in which he denounced the
Bursum bill providing sfor the distri-
button of some western Indian lands.
This man in appearing before Kiwanis,
Lions and Rotary clubs has claimed
he was the chief of the Ojibways, and
that his home is in Boulder, Colorado.
Having received many letters from his
constituents referring to this mans
utterances and claims and making in
quiries regarding him, Representative
Isaac Bacharach, of Atlantic City,
wrote the Indian Bureau, asking who
the alleged Indian is and requesting
particulars about him.
The Indian Bureau replied that they
have no knowledge of the man or his
claims, except that a letterhead has
come into it's possession reading,
american Indian Society,"" and bear
ing the name of Chief Strong Wolf,
"Grand Lakes, Second Assistant and
Athletic Chief. The Ojibways or Chip
pewa Indians are not located in Colo
RADIO and a recognized chief of said
Indians or any band of Chippewas
would hardly be living in Boulder,

SPEAKING OF BATH TUBS

How many bath tubs has Rockland?
but the great majority of the houses
of the city can boast of one and some
houses are equipped with TWO. The
bath tub is no longer regarded as a
luxury, but in ever a wider sense than
the telephone and the automobile it
has projected itself into the region of
necessity. Though like most good
things it had to make it's way against
rooted opposition. A writer says:
The first American bath tub was in
stalled December 20, 1912, in Cincin-
natl, by Adam Thompson. 1t was made
of mahogany and lined with sheet lead.
At a Christmas party he gave an x
hibition of it's use, and four guests
later took a plunge. The next day the
Cincinnati papers discussed the new
invention in columns of printed mat
ter, and violent controversy was pro-
voked. Some papers designated it an
epicurean luxury, others as undemo-
cratic as it lacked simplicity in sur
r%oundings. Medical authorities attack

inviter of phthisis, rheumatism, fevers
and Inflammation of the lungs. The
controversy soon reached other cities
and in more than one place medical
opposition was reflected in legislation.
Late in 1S43 the Philadelphia common
council considered an ordinance pro-
hibiting bathing between November 1

failed by but two votes. During the
same year the Legislature of Virginia
laid a tax of $50 a year OF all bath
tubs that might be set up In Hart
ford, Providence, Charleston and Will
mington, Del, special and heavy rates
were laid on people who had bath tubs.
Boston, early in 1S45, made bathing
unlawful except on medical advice,
but the ordinance vas never enforced
and in 1852 it was repealed. Presi-
dent Millard Fillmore gave the bath
tub recognition and responsibility.
While Vice President he visited Gin
c~innati, in 1850, and inspected the
original bath tub and used it. Expe-
riencing no i'll effects he became an
ardent advocate and on becoming
President he had a bath tub installed
in the White House. The secretary of
state invited bids for the installation.
This tub continued to be used until
the first Cleveland administration.
1t was shortly previous to the Civil
War, less than twenty years after
Adam Thompson's bold experiment in
Cincinnati, that the first bath tub
was installed in Rockland-in the
Beech street home of that progressive
citizen, Francis Cobb-and there are
living today those who can recall with
what a sense of awe the innovation
ran upon the gossiping tongues Of
the community. But a long period OF
years had to elapse before the elon-
gated contrivance of tin was able to
usurp the blue wash tub, brought in
from the wood shed on a Saturday
night and planted ostentatiously by
the kitchen cook stove, to the violent
indignation of the youth of the family.
With the older people the rite vas not
compulsory. Some of them paid no
attention to it at all.-Rockland,

I was calling at a friends house
the other evening and witnessed a
rather hectic scene between a head
strong f~our-yearHold and a determined
father.
The father punished the child for
d~isobedience. Immediately Micky
rushed sobbing to the Mother Patsy.
He snuggled his little head against her
shoulder. She patted and comforted.
did Daddy abooze my baby?"
Of course Micky understood that
Mother Patsy did not approve of
fathers punishment. Most certainly
the good effect was lost. Micky's
thoughts strung together probably
ran something like this:
81 don't have to mind M Daddy.
What if he does punish me? It's
most WORT it if Mother Patsy pets me
like this"
The child had defied and disobeyed
his father. The determined words
and punishment were merited. Then
the wise thing for Mother Patsy to
have done was to cooperate with
father. Instead of that she made
Micky feel that daddy, instead of him
self was in the wrong. Parents should
understand that if a child is to be
properly disciplined there must be CO.
operation.
A y%oungster can sense very quickly
if there is dissension or lack of har-
mony between parents. A young
mother recently confided to me:
All Jim's and my quarrels have been
because of Son."
That is certainly most unfortunate.
Worse yet if the child knows that
mother and daddy do not agree upon
the subject of discipline.
If the father tells Son he must stay
at home every night for a week for a
misdemeanor, and Son hears mother
remark: That's a perfectly silly thing
Father. Let him go out and play with
the other boys" What will the child
think? He will surely decide that one
parent must be greatly at fault. And
the influence of both will be weakened.
Most children in homes where there
is the proper cooperation think that
mothers and fathers judgment and
ways are almost infallible. And that
is as it should be. They should have
the greatest respect for the wishes
and opinions of their parents.
There are, of course, a great number
of little mistakes made by children
that parents should overlook, in order
not to be constantly nagging or harp
ing. But when either mother or
father does take charge of discipline,
the other should at least seem to be in
, complete accord. If there is any dis
sension, do not let the child sense it.
First, last and always, there must be
cooperation!

Won't Even Sell Coal.

Essen. Jan. 15 tBy Associated Press) 1.-The German mine directors notified the French control commits sion today that they must refuse to resume deliveries of coal on the rep- arations account, even in return for cash payments, on the ground that they were in receipt of an order from the Germ;si federal coal commission CT forbidding such action
 The refusal was contained in the reply to q written order from Gen. Denvignes which was delivered indi- vidually to the directors ordering earh iio iTsume deliveries in accordance with the reparations program.
 The mine directors committed in delivering their reply at conference with the control commission this morning, called attention to the fact that the agreement reached on Sat- urday for resumption of deliveries for cash had been made with the reservation that it would not stand in case the federal commissioner ordered otherwise which he had now done.

ANOTHER DEFAULT TO
 BE LAID TO GERMANY
Probably Will Be Declared In Arrears Tomorrow on
 Merchandise Deliveries

| Paris, Jan. 15, (By Associated
 Press) .---It seemed certain today that ! Germany would be declared in de fault for her 1923 deliveries of mer-
 chandise at a meeting of the repara- tions commission called for tomorrow. This would be a new measure against Germany because of her recent declin- ation to keep on with her deliver ieS.
 The French delegation has asked that the commission consider this action the first thing tomorrow as d result of Germany's note to the com mission giving notice that Germany could not longer continue her deliver ies in kind because of the French action in the Ruhr.
 This declaration of default, which was expected to be taken by vote of three to one, will be used by the French, it is explained in separations circles, as a basis for acquisitions in the Ruhr. These would include all deliveries in kind which Germany is obligated to make including livestock, iron and steel, coal and wood.
 It is recalled in reparation circles, however, that M. Coste, head of the industrial mission in the Ruhr, has been quoted as telling the Ruhr mine owners they would be paid for their coal in some way. There is specula- tion therefore as to ho wthis right of requisition claimed by the French would be reconciled with the promise to pay.
 The anticipated three to one vote in the separations commission is on the basis of abstention from voting by Sir John Bradbury, the British member which is considered equiva- lent to a negative vote.
