CHILD AMERICANIZATION
There is a growing apprehension of
the evils that menace the future and
an apparent desire to avert trouble
by means of preventive measures. It
is coming to be recognized that by
making good Americans of all of the
nation's children, the alien problem
of the future will be practically solv
ed.
The easiest way to teach American
ideals and loyalty is to begin 'with
the little child; therefore the United
States bureau of education and the
National Kindergarten association,
working together from 8 West 40th
street, New York, are urging the im
mediate introduction of the kinder
carten into all public schools as a
vital Americanizing agency.
As a result of their efforts, Texas
and California are conducting inten
sive campaigns, and letters from per
sons in every state show an increas
ing interest in securing thi educa
tional advantage for the children of
their communities.
More than 70 of the children of
our own state are deprived of kinder
garten education. We ' should take
steps immediately to remedy this con
dition, and have kindergartens put
into all of our schools this year.

makes such a stir of favorable comment that sales
have an amazing natural growth.
But the satisfaction which an automobile gives in
use is very largely dependent on its tires. If the tire is
poor the car gets a reputation for being hard on
tires. And this would be fatal.
So we sell and recommend Goodyear Tires be

peoples whose forefathers knew
nothing of them. Now comes the In

field, but with the poet's mind, the
man who would have been the tribe
tale-teller in years of untrammeled
freedom. He is White Eagle of Gil
lette, Wyo, He visited the COURIER
offce Monday and presented a strange
little book of verges. In terhnlnno
and metre they may contain rough
eages. Dut in philosophy and rythm
there is genuine, if weird, reflection
or the modern Indian mind, White
Eagle knows. Here is his "Indian's
Lament;'
Game all gone, we working now;
Bows broken, we running plow.
Raise big pumpkin, sell in- town;
Kill urn fat hog, salt him down;
Overalls on, blankets gone,
White man shirts, no nice beads on.
Old time Indian think it bad,
Smoking him pipe, feeling sad.
Squatting by the tepee door
That old times come back no more.
