CHEROKEE Indians
HAD STRANGE CURE
Old Time, Medicine Men Followed
Special Ritual

Modern advances In medical
science are matter of no moment
to the Cherokee Indians Of the
Carolina mountains. DR.. Frans NJ.
Olbrechts, ethnologist who has just
returned from an expedition under
the Bureau Of American Ethnology
Of the Smithsonian Institution to the
reservation in North Carolina re-
ports that the modern Cherokees.
like their ancestors. are still moro
concerned with how medicine is
given than with what 1t is.
If man has worms, for instance,
the medicine given to get rid Of
them must have flint arrowheads
put in 1t to impart to 1t the cut
ting quality of the stone so that the
worms may be cut to pieces. Ger
tain remedies are only effective il
administered in gourd dipper.
Also the lamentations accompanying
the gathering of the plants from
which the drugs are made and ac-
companying their administration,
must be letter perfect or no good
will come.
DR.. Olbrechts brought back to the
Smithsonian for exhibition In the
National Museum various articles
illustrating the primitive and super
stitious nature of Cherokee medi-
cine. These include blow tube
used by the medicine men and wo-
men to sprinkle or blow decoctions
and infusions upon affected parts of
the body; a piece of uncut flint for
treating rheumatism and like all
ments;' a magical transparent stone
alleged to possess mysterious pow
ers In the elimination of disease;
and a medicine mans var!colored
cloth. which is designated by words
meaning take it away In this
cloth the doctor wraps up and car
ries away the cause Of the disease,
which Is always spirit or super
naturally injected object, after It's
removal
The Indians studied by DR.. o.
hrechts are the remnant Of the once
powerful Cherokee Indians who for
merly dominated the southeastern
states, They are the descendants of
those who fled 10 the mountains at
the time Of the forcible rem oval Of
the tribe in 1888 to a reservation
west of the Mississippi. They are
still SO isolated that few Of them
speak English. Incidentally, their
written languages presents a rarity.
It was created by half-breed
Cherokee named sequoya in the be-
ginning of the 10Th cetury, Seqouya
took the English letters and chang
ing them as he saw fit made
Cherokee alphabet. This was adopt
ed by the Cherokee government,
which. thanks to the work Of is
sionaries, had made rapid progress
towards civilization. A national
press was established and a consid-
cradle body of printed literature ap
peared in the native language.
q The western Cherokees have been
we'll absorbed by the whites, but the
Carolina members of the tribe have
remained stationary or fallen back.
Their written languages is passed
on now from father to son, as they
have no schools.
Much work on the medical for
mulas and lore OF the Cherokees
was done in the last century by
James Mooney, under the Bureau
Of American Ethnology of the
Smithsonian, DR.. Olbrechts under
took his recent expedition to check
up MONEYS manuscripts with a
view to their translation and event
ual publication by the Bureau.

CLEANUP DAY

April 1st was the day set aside
by the residents of Kennewick as
the annual spring clean-up-day for
the city. April 1st saw the citi-
zens armed Rith rakes marching
to war aekftSt the unsightly plac-
es in thSir vicinity. Yards were
cleaned f0 an immaculate condi-
tion by radiance of last autumns
leaves in flames. Parking strips
were cleaned and a general clean
up ensued 1t
But not only did the older gen
Grafton work toward identifying
the city. The organizations Of the
younger students did a great deal
of commendable work in that di-
rection. The DeMolay boys have
shouldered the responsibility OF
making a beauty spot of the plot
of ground between Bricks Service
Station ard ,Raymond's plumbing
shop. The Girl Scouts are working
on the improvement of the lot be-
tween Raymonds and the library,
while the Boy Scouts are taxing
over the up-keep of the corner OF
the lot on which the Empire Elec-
trio is located. This work of these
organizations is of great moment
in cultivation of the city beautiful
and at the same time reminds the
younger folks of their responsible
tiles and duty as future citizens
of their community.
