Every Tuesday is bank day. School banking is a student activity in which all students take an active part: such participation does not mean a saving of money only. Through personal budgeting, each student is encouraged to bank a part of earnings or allowances for future needs: to make the most of school time and opportunities.

Special Capacities of the American Indian HUGH HLFLBERT All races seem to have distinguishing features aside from speech or color. Just as there is a difference between German music and French music, so there is a difference between the white race and th: red race. We do not find this distinc- tion in the mental capacity of the two. The Indians of America have. on the average. the sam: degree of intelligence, the same I. as the average white person in America. Racial distinctions are no longer drawn on mental capacity, for the consensus of scientific opinion falls on th: side of equality in race intelligence. If we were to distinguish between the Indian and the white man, we could not do it here. Yet. the Indian has certain capacities and abilities which the white man does not possess. and it cannot be doubted that certain abilities well-developed in the white man are only primitively present in the Indian. The lndian's chief contri- bution to civilization must be along the line of his special abilities. If the Indian has made a lasting imprint of the culture of this world, if he is to make any worthwhile contribution to the great mass of civilization. such a contribution must lie along the line of his special abilities. The Indian is an artist by nature. I-Ie is born with a capacity for discipline and careful work. and a fine sense of line and rhythm. I-Iis artistic development, his forms and ideas. are peculiarly his own, evolved through many thousands of years of struggles and progress. His modes of expression are diHferent from any other nation. I-Iis pictures have often become conventionalized and symbolic, but their meaning is by no means lessened to him, or their artistic values lost to the outside world. Modern Indians, notably the Kiowas and Pueblos, have taken these old sym- bols and forms and reuiuvenated them. They have put them together in a union of material and technique both symbolic and intelligible. John Sloan and Oliver La Izarge in their Introduction to American Indian's Hut say: XVise young Indians have applied to the painting of their pictures the diszipline of line and color developed through many centuries of decorating every imaginable object of daily or sacred use with designs innately suited to the objects decorated and charged with traditional cultural concepts. The Indian was not accustomed to paint his picture on a canvas and hang it on the wall to grow dim with dust and niglect. I-Ie put his art where he could see and use it. I-Ie painted on his water jars and clay dishes. I-Iis pottery has long been noted for its artistic as well as This is another view of the Equestrian Statue. which is shown in the large picture on Page 50. Page One Hundred Twelve
