TRIM EAST LANSING Orange Black OUCH I REPORT CAROS TIIK CHARHIAN Volume CHARLOTTE, MI1H-, THURSDAY, OCTOBER IS, 15 32 ISAAC GREYEARTH, f INDIAN, SPEAKS AT CHARLOTTE HIGH COUNCIL PLANS FOR YEARLY EVENTS Relates Many Experiences of Boyhood in American School for Indians Issac Greyearth. a Sioux Indian, who lina been In Charlotte on several occasions. entertained the students a week uko Friday. He is from an Indian reservation in Landrail. South Dakota, where he has tharge of the Indian boys. Mr. Grey- earth received a diploma making him a Itlaen of the United States after he completed the eighth grade. After he renounced the customs of the Indian, he was given another paper showing his citizenship. He obtained his last paper after the World War but he Is not allowed to vote. The government owned his property and he pa d no taxes. About five years ago. a law was passed making all Indians citi- zens of the United States. The Indians go to school the same as the whites. There are about twenty-three Indian schools, out of which, three give a high school educa- tion. The credits which they receive in their schooling are not accepied In many of the American colleges. The first school for the Indian was estab- lished In 1872 in Pennsylvania. Mr. Greyearth told how he had to go fourteen miles to school. He hated to go but the government officials forced all Indian boys to attend. They used to hide or make believe they were sick when they saw the wragon coming, which would take them to school. Tlie teachers took roll call four or five times a day. He said that they had to repeat the following words, “In the Indian Youth lies the hope of his race”, every morn- ing. noon and night for three years. He stated that the government schools have wonderful football teams. The Indian eighth graders have a team which plays against the Universities of different states. It is an honor to the Indian boy to mako the first team in all athletics. Mr. Greyearth said that he believed the Indians to be better sports than the white man They always stick to the Job until it Is finished.” He concluded his entertainment by singing two numbers, the first being a Sioux Indian song, and the second. From the Land of the Sky Blue Waters. He also gave a warwhoop. STUDENT COUNCIL GARDEN PROJECT WELL UNDER WAY Russell Cherry Predicts Banner Year For School Mayer and ( ouncll Appoint ommlttei- To Look After School Affair Four Local Class Members Constructing Miniature Model Rock Garden Senior Girl Reserves Hold Their First Party Girl Reserves held their fl-st party of the year Wednesday. October 5. in the domestic science rooms. The committee in charge of enter- tainment and refreshments consis ed of the officers who are: Eleanor Tou- tant. president; Gladys Spotts. vice- president; Genevieve Huber, secre- tary: Maxine Cooper, treasurer. The evening was spent in Informal tsiks. plans for the ensuing year. Girl Reserve songs, and games. Fried cakes and cider were served, after which the party ended with the formation of the Friendship Circle. A very picturesque and well-plan- ned miniature rock garden Is being constructed by four of Mr. Hennink's pupils in the agricultural room. As yet the model is still in the rough but is progressing bit by bit and promises to be a masterpiece, when finally completed. At the first glance, one would think some one was growing flowers, how-; ever upon closer inspection it may be seen that on either side of the aquar- ium there are small pools of water. The one on the left has a tiny foun- tain which will spray water into the air; the other one is backed by cas- cades having several steps which will eventually direct the course of water from the top to the pool below. The students who have so ingeni- ously devised this project are: Doro- thy Smith. Iai Keefer. Mary Coch- rane. and Robert Williams. They al- so plan to add to the decorations of flowers and ferns, a fine green velvety carpet which will make the rest of the work appear much more detailed and finished. SENIOR CLASS HOLDS MEETING The senior class held their second meeting October 6. in Mrs. Mitchell’s room, to decide upon the invitations to bo used for graduation. The meeting was called to order by President Wilcox. Several styles of Invitations were passed around and a vote taken to see which one would be used.
