INDIANS MEET AT K. U. National Society Plans Annual Conference on University Campus This Month
A letter received today by Dr. Frank Strong, chancellor of the University of Kansas, from Arthur L. Parker, secretary-treasurer of the Society of American Indians, announces the meeting of the society in October 28 to October 3 with headquarters on the University campus.
Arrangements are being made for the use of a big room in one of the main buildings on the Hill, and several speakers from the University faculty will appear on the program during the week's conference.
Complete arrangements for speakers and meetings have not yet been announced, but several interesting features are planned. Registration and assignment of delegates and visitors to hotels and boarding places will be made in the morning of the opening day, September 28. Welcome committees will meet all trains with ambulances. In the afternoon the first executive session will be held and committees assigned. A public welcome will be given by the city and University officials in the evening and addresses will follow by prominent Indians.
Will Erect Memorlai
The September 29 session opens with the Annual Conference Sermon in the morning by Dr. O, C. Brown A special delegation then leaves for Kansas City to participate in the erection of a memorial of ex-Governor Walker, a Wyandotte Indian, the first governor of Kansas. The delegation will be assisted in the ceremony by the Kansas State Chapter of D. F. and P. The afternoon will be given over to the meeting of the committee on claims and legislation, and the conference on education will follow in the evening. At the latter meeting, Indian schools will be discussed and various phases of educational work among the red people threshed out, Emma D. Goulette is to be chairman of this meeting.
The most important meeting of the week is scheduled for the morning of September 30, when the annual discussion on "How Indians Themselves Can Remedy the Conditions of Their Race" Just how far Indians are responsible for their present conditions will be discussed and some attempt made at recommendations. Among those scheduled for addresses are Dr. F. A. Kenzie, K慈萍 Yellow Rose, Stephen Jones, John M. Oaklson and Rosa B. LaFlesche. Among the topics to be discussed in the afternoon are, the present progress of the Indian and his incentives and drawbacks. An effort will be made to discover the causes of his slow development to educational influences and find a way to remove the impediments to the improvement. The speakers on the platform for the discussion and debate are greasman Carter, William J. Kerphaw, Matthew Snifflin, the Rev Philip B. Gordon, Henry Standing Bear and the Rev. William Holmes. The Indian in legislation will come up for consideration that evening, together with the part he should have in his own affairs, the problem of letting him know what is going on about him, his loyalty to his country and his whole relation to the white man and to his own race, being especially emphasized. The discussion concerning American Indian Day and the Society Memorial will end the day's conference.
Sports at Haskell
Gaine E. Parker, Charles E. Darez, natt, B. Rise, Wise C保罗 Montesa and Thomas L. Sloan will open the program on October 1 by talking on the responsibility of the government to the Indian, what it does, and what it does not do, and why it fails to perform its duty. In the afternoon the delegates will make an inspection trip out to Haskell Institutes, and will take in field sports and a card tournament by the Indian on the evening the problem which is of highest importance to the Indian himself, that of the reservation, will be discussed; morals, tamperance, leasing, industry and home conditions being the topics of most interest.
Saturday will be given over to closing business, announcement of the society's platform, nomination and election of officers, and the message to Mohunkib. The following Sunday October 8 is the last day of the conference and will talk in the local churches or moral problems of the country as a whole, and those concerning the "dion in particular."
Between Gong Spasms
Prof. George Putnam, of the department of economics who was graduated from Christ College, Oxford, England, as a Rhodes scholar, and who is especially noted for his use of the megaphone and gong at the University of Michigan, in less than ten minutes as he watched the large enrollment at the University this week.
"In my college at Oxford, the normal enrollment was 300. I understand now that there are only about 25 in Christ college this year. All of the best men are in the army, many of them officers. Several have been mentioned in the dispatches for merit. One of my classmates won Victoria cross for valor—the highest honor a British soldier can win."
"And," he added sorrowfully, "several have been killed."
When asked where he spent his
vacation, Professor Putnam, an-
swers, "I went to New York."
A new piece of equipment that is noisily noticeable in the hands of Professor Putnam is a large old-fashioned dinner gong, which was used in the early ninetyes to call the students to chapel. It is now in use in the enrollment machinery in the Gymnasium. When any of the classes are closed, and Professor Putnam wants the attention of all the students, the old dinner gong gets it. The gong has been preserved in the alumni in Fraser Hall since its demise as the channel hell.
K. U. DISTRIBUTES NEW EDUCATIONAL SLIDES
