Work on Sioux Reservation Told by Domiciliary Member Cartp White Although the Sioux were recognized as the most warlike of all the western tribes of Indians, there is one Sioux reservation today in South Dakota where the work of two men has helped provide a key to understanding. - One of these men was a mis sionary,, who made a Sioux dic tionary of 3,000 words with the English equivalents. Nelson Nor thrup, now a domicilary mem ber here and veteran of World War II, is the second man, who lived among the Sioux and help ed them to understand the ways of the whites. He found the dictionary to be thumb worn and ragged, so he made six additional copies for their use, improving the text by some editing. One of the copies he sent to the state capi tol where it has been placed in the archives. Northrup spoke the language himself and brought the com pleted volume closer in line with the phonetic phrases which con stitute the language. The Sioux could write their own language, but essentially the words were spoken, he says. Their speech is gutteral, resembling low Ger man in its inflection. "The Sioux were nomads and hunters, rather than agricultura- Phoenix Phoenix Mrs. Willard Seit zinger who has been in the Com munity hospital for the past two weeks is now able to have vis itors.

"They have been taught agriculture- by the government agents, but they are not alto gether happy in their confine ment." The farms are managed by a trained Indian overseer. The Indians, he says, prefer living in the open, and while some have built houses, many have put the stock in the houses and taken up residence in tents on the plains. The Sioux have their own style of tepees, made of skins. Northrup was with the 109th combat engineers in Britain and on the continent during the last war. He was mustered into the 34th Infantry Division from the South Dakota National Guard. There were more than 100 Sioux Indians who fought with him during the four years they were in the service. "They seemed to take to Army life naturally, and stood the rig ors of war much better than some of the whites. "In fact," he says, "our company comman der, Captain Claude C. De Cory, was part Sioux, and he was a real soldier, always placing the interest of his men first, and never sending anyone where he was not willing to go. "I understand, when the war ended, he decided to make the Army his career," Northrup added. BOY SCOUTS Troop 8 Troop 8 met Tuesday. They discussed the camporee coming up. Two boys from the stag patrol read us a menu which we can use on the camporee. We also talked about Scout Camp. We are going to have the south end of camp, so we are going to build an archway over the trail. The gateway will be permanent. Then we talked about divid ing the patrols. We got one new patrol from the Lone Pine dis trict. We are also going to di vide the flaming of our patrol. The meeting was closed by Bruce Hanson. Bruce Harvey, Scribe.

Weighs Using Nest-Egg For Husband's Education There is nothing more foolish than to continue in a line of work where one is unhappy. (Q) I was married right after my husband finished college. He was an out standing a t h- lete during his college days and the college invited him back to b i coach. He was delighted and so was I, tince K.v:--"Tii a-.a--ga i enjoy the life Dr. Huxlock on the camous. Now we have three small chil dren and it is hard to make ends meet on what my husband earns. He is not satisfied with his work. claims he will never get any where, and wants to change. "I inherited a small sum of money from my father which I have put aside to meet any emer gency. The question is, would I be justified in using this to help my husband, gel started in some other work? He says he would like to teach English in a boys' school but that he must have at least a year of graduate studies first. This would mean that we would have to live on my inheri tance during that time. Is this a wise way to use the money?" (A) If your husband is sure that he wants to teach in a boys' school, then you would be justi fied in using at least part of your inheritance to help him es tablish himself. However, before you make the investment, why not have him take some vocation al aptitude tests to see if he is really fitted for such work or if he would be better off in some other field. Should he have enough abil ity to get a higher degree in English, he could get a scholar ship that would cover his tuition and his living expenses. He could also get some part-time work as a professor's assistant or as a tutor. This would mean that you would have to dip less heavily into your nest-egg. In the long run, he might be happier if he went into adminis trative work in education rather than into teaching. He has been accustomed to an active life in his athletic coaching; he might find the classroom confining. In administrative work he could move around more and come in contact with all types of people, not just boys. Furthermore, he would be better paid than he would in teaching.
