When be was arrested quantity
of home made liquor and mash was
found in his house and upon in

been furnishing his friends, with
the stuff. When confronted with
the facts Carl decided that it would
be useless to fight, and plead
guilty. Sheriff Urness, Clerk of

Judge Watts at Crookston and
Carl received his sentence.

The Indians Of 1924.
Minneapolis Tribune.)

| \MlnneapOllS lrl0une.)
The White Father, alias the
United States government, can
look the Indians in the face with
better conscience than ever before.
He is dealing with them more in.
diligently and with greater justice,
and he is being recompensed with
the results of this policy.
There are better schools and
better safeguards for health among
the sons and daughters of the
Aborigines. Indians now have
the privileges of citizenship. Many
of them are markedly successful in
agriculture and business pursuits.
Their numbers are increasing, and
with this increase goes a fuller
participation in the pleasures,
comforts aud general benefits of
the white mans civilization. This
is a prideful thing to think about
in this Christmastide period when
good will among men is presumed
60 be at its best. :
Unhappily there are still those
here and there among the whites
who seek to make the Indians the
prey of their cupidity. Happily
they are fewer than they used to
be, partly because the Indians
themselves are better able to look
out for their own rightful interests,
and partly because the spirit of
fair play by the strong in their
dealing with the weak is increas.
ingly pervasive.
We are told by the Assistant
Secretary of the Interior that the
percentage of Indian children reg.
ularly attending school is larger
than the percentage of white
children in respect of schooling;
that in a decade the mortality rate
among Indians has been reduced
from 81 per 1000 to 21 per 1000;
that in this period the number of
farmer Indians has increased from
10000 to $4,000; that Indians have
$50, 100000 deposited in banks
and in the United States: Treasury;
that there are now 80 hospitals
and sanitaria for the care of In.
dians, and that the expenditures
for health among them is now
100000 a year, compared with
$4,000 IL or Is years ago.
In return for all this the Indians
are delivering fine proportionate
share to the development of the
country and to the creation of it's
wealth. In very large part the
historic tepee has given way to
we'll appointed cottages and houses.
Sanitation and hyiene have worked
in reducing the ills which have
best the Indians because of their
old ways of living. No dollars
out of the Treasury have effected
greater social benefits than those
spent in recent years to improve
the Indian 10 body, mind and
spirit. 1t appears that the day is
not far off, as the life of a nation
goes, when there will be no greater
percentage of government wards
among Indians than among their
white brothers and sisters. As
this process goes on their doubtless
will be greater infusion of white
blood in Indian veins. Less than

ga Hospital-Funeral Tomorrow.

Mrs. B. C. Johnson died at the
Watauga Hospital here this morning
after an illness of only few days.

Mae. daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. R. M.
Greene of this city, and niece of
the Professors Dougherty, of the APP

married for only about two years
and with her husband had made her
home at the Greene residence. She
was educated at the Normal and was
an accomplished musician and an ar
tist of unusual ability.
Her death has cast a gloom over
the entire town, for she numbered
her friends by her acquaintance

kind word and pleasant smile for
those with whom she came in contact.
She leaves husband and infant
daughter ten days old, father moth
er, and two brothers to mourn her
seeming untimely death.
Funeral services will be conducted
from the Baptist church tomorrow,

There was an increase of seven
teen in Sunday School attendance
last Sunday compared to the previous
Sunday. 257 were present. Some of
the classes have been working, one
in which it was very evident is taught
by Nh. Jeff Stanbury.
In spite of threatening showers 16
members of the teachers council were
present Monday night to plan and
work out larger program for the
Sunday School. The council has al
ready adopted the B. Standard chart
gotten out by the Department of Re-
ligious Education at Nashville, Tenn.

the accomplishment of this program
seems very favorable.

WORTH WHILE CLUB

Perhaps the most pleasant after
noon the Worth While Club has been
privileged to enjoy was the afternoon
spent with Mrs. Edd Payne at her
home Saturday September 19.
A letter from Mrs. Carrie Bamble,
president of the District Federation
was read by the president. The mat
ter of electing delegates and prospec-
tive attendants was discussed. Quite
number of the ladies plan to attend.
Some suggestions were made rela-
tive to having a chestnut roast. Plans
were made for this and will be car
ried out in the near future.
Mrs. Payne had arranged for the
pleasure of the guests most inter-
esting program. 1t was as follows:
Duet How Beautiful Heaven Must
be- by Misses Harlena Cooke and
Helen Edmisten.
Recitation Daisy Time by Helen
Edmisten.
Reading Keropie Dear's Faith, by
Mrs. Higgins.
Recitation by Harlena Cooke.
Mrs. James Cooke and Mrs. Hug
gins each received dainty bon-bon
dish filled with delicious confections
as prises for highest score in an
apple and Forest Contest.
Apples of choicest varieties were
very much in evidence and enjoyed
by the guests.
After the guests had enjoyed the,
program and contests, they were in
vited to the dining room where a
most sumptious repast awaited them.
Dainty place cards directed each
guest to her place of honor. The
hostess assisted by Miss Alive Brown
and Miss Bernice Cooke served a
two course luncheon. The first
course consisted of chicken, toast, sa-
lad waters, pickles and coffee. The
second pink and white cake, straw
berries and custard.
This beautiful home on the knoll
surrounded by the beauties of nature
forest and orchard and sparkling
streams was very alluring and all
were oathe to leave.
The next meeting of the club will
be with Mrs. T. Len Cooke, Saturday
October the Bird.
