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-

al natives, as were the Indians
living along the Atlantic sea
board when the white men first
came to this continent," Nor
thrup pointed out.
"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

As We Live
By ELIZABETH HURLOCK. PH.D.
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.
