WBDNMUAY, AIGUHT IM, IMI NOTtCN OF OHATTKI, WORTGAGK BAI j B THE COUNCIL OF WAR BY "INDIAN" MILLER Whit« men often a»h uihy Indiana wear long hair. There are many r—seine; but I will tell a few. But first I would aek: Why should we cut the hair? God willed that men should grow long hair. The races that cut their hair are rapidly be coming baldheaded. Whoever saw a baldheaded Indian? Hair protects the head in many ways. The Indian who lives much in the open and in dry places keeps his face and lips from cracking by wrapping his hair around his face; and in the same way he protects his face from flying sand. There are many other things we could say; but here is one reason more important than all. No Indian with short hair would have been admitted to a council of war. A council of war was a coun cil of men; not of boys or women. It was consid ered a mark of cowardice for an Indian to cut his hair, for he thereby lowered the value of his scalp. Those Indians who braided their hair always braided a little scalp lock on the back of the head. This was for the convenience of the enemy in tak ing the sfalp. It was already to tie to the bridle as an ornament What was the purpose of the council of war? It was to declare war or to plan a campaign. When war was declared the warriors put on warpaint. The warpaint was a sign of mourning as well as a sign of war; and it generally consisted of black alone. It was customary for everyone to stand aside on the trail to allow one in mourning to pass; and a man was rash indeed who expected an Indian on the warpath to give half the traiL Indians on the warpath were allowed the whole traiL The coun cil of war gave this authority.
