Planned in 1312.
Washington SUte College, Pullman
A semi-centennial celebration of
the founding of the agricultural col
leges of the United States is one pf
the events which the association of
these colleges has undertaken and
word from Washington to Professor
Thatcher announces the date, AuguBt,
1912. Invitations will 'be issued by
President Taft to send representa
tives and congress will be petitioned
at" the next session for an appropria
tion to finance the Jubilee.
The' invitations, which will be is
sued by the president of the United
States, wtll .be to attend both the
semi-centennial celebration and the
tenth Bession of the International
congress of agriculture, which up to
this time has never convened outside
jplace at Madrid, Spain, thia year.
The year 1912 will mark the fiftieth
anniversary of the passage of the
Morrill act, providing for state agri
cultural colleges and the twentieth
anniversary of the supplementary
Hatch act, which provided for the ex-
rMtrlmant fH. . t.i ..... .,u -
ed national alt for the maintenance
of these institutions. For Washing
ton the state college fulfills the con
ditions oM)oth acta.
The celebration and the interna
tional meeting will both, take place
at Washington, D. C. At the same
time a second international meeting
will be held in the United States, the
world's congress of applied chemists
which will 4e held in New York City.
,: ; Indians Taboo Biblical Names.
Spokane, Wash.,l Dec. 8.--"Spok-ane
Indians do . not like Biblical
names," said J. McWebster. of Fort
Spokane, recently. ; , '
"If you should be dropped blind
folded into the Spokane Indian reser
vation you might easily v imagine
yourself In a Jewish synagogue. You
hear Moses speaking to Isaac. Reuben
whispering! soft -words to Judith and
possibly Benjamin, Aaron, Levi ' and
Joseph In, a heated controversy over
money matters. ' ': -.. "... ". : ,
"When I first took charge of the
Spokane and Colville agencies six
years ago I thought the Spokane Ind
ians, a very religious lot of people
but I soon found it was in name only,
and that they were not at' all . satis
fied with the" names." ; V :;
; Almost the first day, said Captain
Webster, an Indian came to him with
an Interpreter asking to have his
name changed.; He had a "very bad"
name, he said. His name was Benja
min Isaac..:'.1: 'J., '
Hundred of Indians have asked to
have their , names changed and today
they are "Tom, . Dick, and Harry;"
Biblical characters are - becoming
scarce.

In the early days when the French
Catholic priests were the only white
men among the Indians in this coun
try, the natives adopted their bid pic
turesque,, descriptive ,'names, . like
"Good Thunder.", Afraid of a Cow,!1'
"Rain in the Face" and so forth, or
else, French names, but about 25
years ago an evangelical missionary
changed al lthelr names and caused
the trouble which Captain Webster
has had in furnishing common "Am
erican' names.. "':''Y:";:'. v -." II :
