Our Annual Celebration.
Immediate Steps Should be Taken to
Assure a Big Celebration Here on
Z June 18th.

The time is fast drawing near
for our annual celebration. Just
a little more than two months and
the 14th of June will be here. In
view of past experience it behooves
the Chippewa people, and especial.
ly those who may have the details
of the celebration in charge, to
make an early start in the neces.
sary preparations for this event
which means 80 much in the lives
of all White Earth Cbippewas ss
we'll as other bands in Minnesota,
in order that we may not have a
repetition of last year, when the
celebration was next to q total
failure. A meeting should be
held without delay and the neces.
sary committees appointed. In
this respect care should be taken
to appoint only those on commit.
tees who will act and who can be
relied upon to exert themselves in
an effort to carry out their partic.
ular part of the program to q sue
cessful conclusion. In is necessary
that these committees be appointed
early, in order that may get in
touch with amusement enterprises
and bind. them by contract to be
on hand Or that date. We cannot
have successful celebration with
an Indian dance alone; nor with a
lot of lemonade and hot dog stands,
there must be plenty of amuse-
ments of some character to draw
and to hold the crowd. There
should be a merry-go-roun1. side
shows, etc., and all kinds of local

waa whoop that rent the air in the

Chief Bender, Chief Meyers and

are half a dozen tribesmen seeking

Chief Najo, a Pawnee, Chief
Bender, now a coach, Billy Car

claiming tribal connections who
are seeking monthly checks with
the Chicago White Sox. Joe
Guyon, former Carlisle star, is
trying to make good with the
Cubs. The Boston Braves believe
that Archie Kelsey can pitch as
we'll as his forefathers threw tom,

Bender and Meyers have left

crowds and make the celebration a
success. 1t takes time to consu-

should be made.
The annual celebration here on
June 14th is known far and vide,

Indian Field Service
(. Is ReOrganized.
Herey B. PEARS to be General Supsrla
tendent Of Indian Affairs.

The Interior Department has
announced a wide reorganization
of the Indian Field Service by the
Commissioner of Indian Affairs,
Charles H. Burke, affecting the
educational, agricultural, industrial
and medical activities of the Indian
Bureau.
The position of General Super
'jntendent of Indian Affairs has
been created, and Hervey B.
Peairs, formerly chief supervisor
of Indian education, has been ap-
pointed to the place. The purpose
to centralize educational, agri
cultural, and industrial activities
in the field under one head, and
decentralize responsibility and get
quicker action on irregularities
All Indian reservations and agen-
cies are being organized into dis
tricts, with a district superintend-
ent in charge. The general super
intendent has been given wide
latitude in developing these new
activities placed under his super
vision.
Mr.. Peairs has served in various
capacities in the Indian field SER
vice since 1887. He was superin-
tendent of Haskell Institute for l6
years, and chief supervisor of edu-
cation for IL years. His expert
ence in the latter position gives
him intimate knowledge of condi,
tions on all reservations and first
hand acquaintance with the prob
lens of administering the affairs
of the Government Indian wards.
He has been factor in the up
building of Indian education dur
ing the last quarter of a century.
BY establishing a uniform course
of study in Indian. schools, which
included vocational courses 10 all
grades, Mr.. Peairs blazed the trail
a number of years ago in what has
become an important factor in the
Indians progress toward civiliza.
ton. When he became chief su.
pervisor in 1910 he found only
1900 Indian children in public
schools, and it was through his
direction of the policy of placing
them in public schools wherever
feasible that the number has been
increased to $4,000. Under his
administration the requirements
for teachers has been raised, and
they must now attend summer
school at least every other year.
Mr.. Peairs' most recent accom-
plishment has been the promotion
of the health education campaign
conducted by the American Medi-
Cal and Child Health Associations,
and the American Red Cross. Ap
preparations for the treatment of
diseases among the Indians have
been increasing annually, and the
modern plan of disease prevention
was recently adopted with the idea
Of safeguarding the Indians health
by teaching him nygiene and sani-
tation, and thereby lessening the
need for medical treatment.
The Interior Department also
announces reorganization of the
Indian medical service. Under
the supervision of the chief midi.
cal director, the field has been
divided into four districts, each in
charge of medical director re,a
sponsible for medical, dental,
health, sanitation, hospitals, and
other institutions for the benefit of
Indians located in his particular
district.
