For that reason Yazoo came to mean death in the Indian language. When the Choctaws moved into this territory, they gradually assimilated the Yazoos who had not already been destroyed, and the area gradually took on the Choctaw civilization The Choctaws although a small tribe ranked high as an honorable courageou ana brave people K fag, JN tg- E 'X-N Wlsen we were eaay o loose a ar ie or our year book that would be partic larlv I a c an ornmunitv We naturally turned to one of the Choctav Jarrc s was Minao Cnito brave and courageous greatly prizin honor tend h o nobility of spirit trustworthiness and all the gooa tninas of lite hi cl a a e as such that he came to symbolize the Great Spirit to his people hi rarre Miriao Chito came to be associated Wi h th good in lite trutn honor frierdship loyalty and courage As we have ecorded ou scnool ear 1946 47 we have come to realize that one of the best things ol life is the memory ot associations friendships yoys and victories shared v th friends in school And we teel that We could not have chosen a better name tha MINGO Cl-IITO for the record ot these memories ot high sclrool davs shared alike with students and teachers ' , , C ' S, .
