Chippewa Indian
Matters TO Receive
! Much Publicity

Mr.. Thomas II. Moody, repre-
senting the Minnesota Daily Star
and International News Bureau, of
Minneapolis, was a White Earth
caller on Saturday and Sunday.
Mr.. Noodles visit to the White
Earth reservation was occasioned
by the recent published account of
Senator Shipstead's and Represen.
tative Wefald's visit through the
Chippewa reservations in this state
last month when they got a
look in" into actual conditions
among the Ch;ppewss, and which
published account appeared in the
metropolitan press recently. Mr..
Noodle was here for the purpose
of investigating things himself 10
order to place the whole truth
before the public through the
columns of the papers he repre-.
sents. Needless to say he went
away more than satisfied that all
reports as to conditions among the
Indians aud as to their treatment
by the Indian Bureau were even
worse than represented. AS .
result of all this publicity is seems
certain that something is bound to
break soon that will result in ma
terial benefit to the Indians and,
likewise, q black eye for the In
dian Bureau. ~

INDIAN LODGE TALES.

tains, and some lived in the forests
and some among the rocks, and so
were the beasts created.
But when the Manitou had made
all these and had paused to rest
from his labors, they straightway
fell to fighting and the big killed
the little, and The strong attacked
the weak, and the rivers and woods
were red with the blood Of the
beasts which the Manitou had
made. And the Manitou, when he
saw the battle and saw the crea-
lures killing and being killed, was
sick at heart.
So he decided to create some
other living creatures, imbued
with his own strength and his own
wisdom; and this creature he de-
cided would be set down upon the
earth to rule the others and to
make the laws and the rules, and
to see that the beasts ceased their
killing and lived in peace and har
mony together as he desired.
So from the big end of his staff
he fashioned the grizzly, and him
he set down at the foot of the great
modntain, and gave to him the
strength and wisdom to govern the
world. And the grizzly was mas.
ter of all the others, and inter.
preted to them the words and the
desires of the Manitou.
When the Manitou had created
the grizzly then be returned again
to his home in Heaven and left the
beasts behind to inhabit the world
which he had created.
So the creation of the beasts and
the birds and the fishes and all
living things except the red men,
who came later and who were born
through the anger of the Manitou
with the grizzly and his tribe. But
that is another story of another
time which is told b. the wise men
of the tribe, and which shall be
told later.

"IeSf We Forget"
"a Communication.)

To the Editor of The ToMAHAwK:
A guest in the home of one of
your residents this last week, my
first visit was to the little cemetery
over the hill where lie 80 many
loved and revered by US aud those
who have been so much to US as a
people. And as l wandered thru
the narrow paths of the dead l
looked for q grave-a grave in
which lay one whose life had been
spent in effort for those he loved.
The grave Of one whose generous
big-heartedness was such that
when he passed away all he had
had been spent or given for others,
and little, if anything, left for bis
very own. Rich in poverty he
was, for riches is counted not in
money but in deeds, and of these
there we're many to his credit. He
had ALWAYS given-from of his
time, his effort, his advice and,
too, of his money. "Generous,"
some say, Ito a fault" tho there
is ONE who would not say that.
Yet l could not find the grave.
There was no stone to mark It's
place-IT WAS LOST. The shock
was great to ME, and l thot, DO
his people know this9' The answer
was as quick, "Of course not"
And so l write this, to let all those
whom he has in any way helped or
who care to show their appreciation
of his worth as a man know they
may aid in raising a monument to
the memory of Gus. H. Beaulieu.
| myself will head the subscription
with ten dollars, and contributions
even to ten cents, for many child
rem will give, may be sent to Mr..
Ben S. Fairbanks, White Earth,
Minnesota. All names being duly
published as received.

 Scouts of Americal
THE SCOUT HANDBOOK

Since the foundation of the scout movement the Handbook of the Boy Scouts of America has been the com- panion and guide of perhaps more boys than any other book in the Eng fish language. The book has proved so attra ctive to boys that schools have adopted 1t as a textbook because of its appeal, as well as it's literary merit and fund of information.
 A nine-year-old boy, so the story goes, once started out to memoriZe Its 800 pages. It can be said it Is found in the pocket of the scout, on the bookshelf of the naturalist, with the greenhorn in camp. with the explorer in the outlands, sometimes in the housewifes kitchen table drawer. and once 1t was placed with a dead hero in his grave, left lying in his coat from the trenches.
 The chapters on Woodlore, Fire Pre- vention. Health, Signaling Radio. Patriotism, Tracking and other sub JectS were WTlllcu py eApeIls "hO not only know their subject profound ly, but can present the information In a fascinating way to boys.
 Perhaps no other book has ever been published with so large a num- Der of editors as the Handbook of the Boy Scouts. When the movement was started in this country, the na- tional council sent proof of the work to 300 college presidents. and 4,5OO men engaged in active boys work, with the request that they share in the responsibility of planning this great movement. Many valuable sug- gestions were received and acted on.
 James E. West, chief scout execu- tive, says: eve had in mind that we must build our foundations with great care, 90 that they would stand the strain of the coming years, and those who have been in touch with the work of the movement know how well they have stood that strain. We hoped then, II years ago. as we built, to reach the goal that we have now at- tained: the largest organized activity for character building and citizenship training"

WORDS OF WISE MEN

Maintain the place where thou stand est.
 Labor is light when your heart is in it.
 He teaches me to be good who does me good.
 Deserve success and you shall com mand it.
 The man who knows the least talks the most.
 He is not laughed at who laughs at himself first.
 He that bringeth a present findeth the door open.
 Spirit is the root of all things eter- nally the same.
 The fruit of labor is sweeter than a stolen peach.
 Our worst misfortuneS are those which never befall us.
 If you would know your faults in quire of your enemies.
 Boil your knowledge down into practical common sense.
 He does not believe that does not live according to his belief.
 If you have done an injury, go like a man and acknowledge and repair 1t. The slave, the idler are alike un- blest. In loved labor only is there rest.
