Florida Seminoles Disappearing Before Civilization
Only Seven Hundred Left
In Vast Everglades

Okeechobee, Fla.,-Seminole In
aians, who once ruled the vast
FLORIDA Everglades have dwindled
so rapidly that today their total
number represents but q frail REM
nant OF one Of the most powerful
tribes that ever entered Florida.
According to the U. s. Govern
ment, but TOO are alive, many of
whom are being hired as laborers.
About 1880, they were one Of the
wealthiest tribes of Indians on the
North American continent, having
huge herds OF cattle, horses and
large bodies Of negroes who work
! ed for them. They are today, the
only free rowing Indians in the
United States and are given full
liberty TO travel to any place they
choose within the borders Of the
state. Many Of them live as they
lived 200 years ago, packing all
their belongings in primitive dug
outs and travelling In nomad fash
ion through the almost impene-
trabIe Businesses Of the 'Glades.
They are accounted to be the fin
est specimens Of Indians in the
United States, clean in body, pure
In morals and brave as lions. The
old chiefs, to test their endurance,
have been known to take q red
hot coal from the camp fire, place
1t ON the wrist and without emo
ton let 1t burn through the skin
until the heat was exhausted
Although civilization Is fast en-
croaching upon their virgin terri
TORY, they still cling to tribal
code established more than two
hundred years ago and are divided
In bands which travel in and out
of the Everglades, killing their
food, trapping and making brill
liantly colored shirts, which they
sell to the winter visitors at fancy
! prices
y Over 4,000, 900 acres In the Flor
ida Everglades are being drained
for agricultural purposes. Huge
canals. some rs miles long and
large enough to float river
steamer, have been dug from Lake
Okeochobee in the heart Of the
state to the Atlantic Ocean to
drain the surplus waters from the
Everglades.
The new land, rich a. the NILS
+ Valley, IL fast being developed In
To farms. This vast development,
said to be one Of the greatest an
cheering feats In the world. IL

Maine Boys at
Winthrop Camp to
Hear ]. Clair MinOt

John Clair Minot, literary editor OF
the Boston Herald for the past six
years, and for the preceding 10 years
one Of its editorial. writer's, is going
to do his part in building up charac-
ter among the young men of Maine,
according to a statement today made
by Arthur A. Head, director of the
Leadership Conference at Lake Cob
bosseecontee June 20 to 27.
Mr.. Heald stated that every Maine
citizen should be proud Of Mr.. Min
OTIS success as writer and lecturer
as he is a Maine product, his old
home being at Belgrade and his early
newspaper work being done with the
Kennebec journal. Since that time
he has not only been the editor of the
Youths Companion and contrib
utor to many magazines but also has
acquired nationwide reputation as
speaker who is endeavoring to in
terest the people of this country in
the best things in our new books.
Continuing, Mr.. Heald said, I'VE
scarcely hoped to be able to secure
his services as we know something of
the demand that is being made upon
him by the Colleges of this country,
but when he found he could render
a real service in the development OF
Maine by helping establish high
ideals Of character in the coming
generation he gladly consented to
meet the delegates at Winthrop on
Wednesday evening, June "a.

the development of Maine, but l can
thing of no finer one than the work
which has to do with the building up
Of a group of high minded young
men who will serve as our future
leaders of tomorrow. If we are go
ing to produce strong men we have
got to begin in time. We have men
enough in numbers but not enough
in training to do the things that the
whole State needs. AS Teddy Roose-
welt said, I'VE have got to catch
them young" and so the future of
Maine lies in getting hold of this
younger generation Of boys.

Projects stamped upon their brain,
and if we can get the right vision OF
true success printed on their minds,
and the right habits of character
fashioned in their hearts. We will

development of the State.

to give his time and effort, even at
great sacrifice and hts example is
one that can we'll be followed by
other distinguished sons Of Maine.

who is In constant demand. This
year in addition to his regular work
he has been speaking to the young
people in a number of our New Eng
land colleges, as he has the gift OF

general reading public, but especially
to young people. At the conference

books that a leader ought to know

Bankers to Meet
At Poland Spring
Wednesday This Week
234 Water st.
jn16d1tx

An unusual interest, especially
amongst the banking profession of
the country, centers about the large
gathering of the Savings banks in
the sixth annual meeting of the Ma
tional Association of Mutual Savings
Banks to be held at Poland Springs
on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday
of this week.
That the savings banks of Maine
are alive to this opportunity is
shown by the early reservations of
bank officers and trustees, represent
ing practically every savings bank
in the State.
The program is one that not only
provides for interesting addresses by
some of the most prominent bankers
of the country, but gives plenty OF
time for discussions, formal and
otherwise, which help to clear the
bankers vision on some of the prob
lens which every bank officer faces
almost daily, as a part of his official
duties.
Trustees and officers alike are de-
termined to make the most OF this
series of meetings. and the large Po-
land Spring House opens today to
do its share in housing the hundreds
of bankers who come from all Sec
tions of the United States, and who
are to be in attendance.
Special plans for the entertain
ment of the ladies of the delegation
during their stay, will help to make
this meeting one of the most sue
cessful ever held in the history of
the Association of Savings Banks,
and also for Poland Springs as well.
Any Maine savings bank officer
not yet registered, should commune
cate at once with Charles A. Litch-
