L TREES
IN INDIAN LORE
AS
CHARLEVOIX, Mlch-(AP) Char
levoix county has appointed five of
Its citizens to investigate ways and
means of obtaining a 30-acre plot of
ground near areenaky hill where an
Indian mission and a circle of council
trees are located.
The ground believed to be one of
the most historical spots In the state,
will be used for a park, providing
efforts of the county and Its five-man
committee are successful. Such a
park, committee members say, will
provide one of the moat Interesting
spots the state will be able to offer
o Its tourist trade.
The mission was completed by the
Indians In 1BS1. It was constructed
from pines cut from the huge fields
near Northport. Its windows and
doors were transported from Traverse
Cltv. Indiana from all over the
Grand Traverse Region, used the mis-
alon, where at the time Peter Greens-
ky, a Methodist minister, preached.
Just how old the council trees are,
records of Charlevoix county fall to
show, but popular belief la that they
were planted as an agreement of
peace between two tribes of Indians.

Long before the Rev. Qreensky ar
rived In 1839, it Is believed the two
tribal chiefs planted the 30 trees as
a pledge that, so long as they grew
and bore leaves, peace would reign
between the two groups.
Records show that for years and
years the Indians used the grounds
for council meetings. What occurred
during the meetings has never been
ascertained.

her story.
The girl said the man wearing a
blue shirt and an unseasonable straw
hat attempted to force her Into the
car. She said he showed her a human
head and that she saw the body In
the rear seat. She brought home a
bloodstained paper she told her par
ents, Mr. and Mrs. Clarence De Haven
she picked up beside the machine.
"While the girl sticks to her story,
it falls to check In several respects
and we cannot place much credence
In It." Sergeant I. M. Hilton sam

"It Is noticeable," adds the report,
"that the Inhabitants of cities In gen

EVIL TEMPTATION
SALT LAKE CITY, Nov. 13. (Pi
Mrs. Ruth May Fox at tho tlirerhold
of 83 says she's no prude but she
co n't abldo baro backs and bare legs
for girls.
As "guardian" of nearly 70,000
young women, she said, she consid
ers such immodesty "one of the
greatest temptations for evil."
Mrs. Fox. who crossed the plains
by ox tt-am when she was 13, Is pres
ident of the Young Women's Mutual
Improvement association, a Latter
Day Snints church group of 69.000
members. She will celebrfate her
eighty-third birthday Monday.
"I do not think the young men
care to see girls wearing backless
dresses either," asserted the gray
haired mother of 13 children. 10 of
whom are still living.
"And, though I don't want to seem
prudish, I think girls should refrain
also from bee r-dr inking and smok
ing. "Smoking particularly is a filthy
habit. If It were just a passing fancy
. . . but once young women Indulge
themselve they become addicted to
the habit."
Mrs. Fox admitted that girls today
are stronger-willed than they used
to be "when they want something
they want It." But she quickly de
nied she believed the younger genera
tion as going to the dogs.
"I think we have the finest lot of
young people today the world ever
knew," she insisted.
