has no part in this work. Govern

however, there are no active workers

out votes for the primaries or caucuses

only to get out the voters of their

in politics is probably not so keen as in

active interest in elections becomes
greater each year as the problems of
government increase, and many civic

4 telling commentary on changes
in the mode of life of all classes and
races within the borders of the United

given in a news dispatch from Wash

Skokomish Indian, who had been
born in a canoe.
The red man came into the world
in all sorts Of odd places and in odd
ways. during forced marches, during
times of white famine, even in the
very midst of war. Doubtless more
than one first saw the light of day
in big craft of birch bark, though
even in the old days this must have
been highly unusual and worthy of
comment.
Although such occurrences may be
still known in the wilds of Canada
and Alaska, the Indian of the United
States becomes less and less likely to
be so distinguished as was this aged
brave. They Use canoes far less; the
gaar-shift and steering wheel are con-
tinually and steadily replacing the
brightly ornamented paddle, for the
Red Brother is essentially lazy when
stark incentive is lacking. Further.
no matter how much he may use
canoe. he is apt to own and inhabit
some sort Of permanent dwelling
to house his offspring,

his modes of entrance into and his
exit from this vale of tears. even that

blamed for snickering.
