PAGE 14 HERALD AND NEWS. KUmalh Falls, Ore. Monday. October 1, 1963 Back In 1868, Bow And Arrow Gave Indians Ample Firepower SEATTLE (UPD- The Indians of the American Plains, who sltfwed the westward-moving pio neers, may not have had the most modern weapons, but they had plenty of firepower in their bows and arrows flaming or other wise. At least the whites who were contemporary do not seem to have felt that all the odds were against the red man. Here is the opinion on the sub ject as published by an Army of ficer's wife in 1868: "Popular opinion has regarded the Indian bow and arrow as something primitive and well enough for the pursuit of game, but quite useless in a contest with the while man. This idea would be excellent if tile Indian war riors would calmly march up in line of battle and risk their mass es so armed against others armed with the rifle. But the Indian will farther penetrate a piece of comes as the hornet comes, in clouds or singly, yet never trying to sting iintil his ascendency is assured and his own exposure is slight. "At fifty yards a wcll-shapen, iron-pointed arrow is dangerous and very sure. A handful drawn from the quiver and discharged successively will make a more rapid fire than that of the re volver, and at very short range Hot-Cold Routine Worries Girl, 14 plank or timber than the ball of 1 I m BY ANN LANDERS Dear Ann Landers: I'm a 14-year-old girl, and a little nutty. If vou can explain why I am tlike I am, u ' ?'jf , be grateful for- ! ever. I'm going steady with the best looking I kid in the school. Freddie I has everything a; girl could pos sibly want. He's smart, handsome, popular and he hn Aimed over me. But the problem is my crazy feelings, Snmellmes when we are togeth er I am bored and wish he would .go home. After he leaves I miss P. ... i .t ...:.u U.'J him line crazy ana i wish u come back. Last week we were at a flea hop (that's a dance) and there were two fellows there that looked good to me. I kept wishing I wasn t going sieaay wnn rreuuie when I saw Freddie danc- ins with another girl, and holding her close, I almost jumped out of my skin. Why am I hot and cold, low and hieh? Do you thing I'm mentally ill? BRENDA Brenda: The high low, hot cold routine means you have not yet matured emotionally. At 14 you should not be going steady with anyone no matter how dreamy. It's unwise and unhealthy for a girl your age to have a heavy emotional Invest ment In any one lelloir. Dear Ann Landers: My hus band and I bought a home near the high school because we have three children of high school age and I was sick and tired of driving kids back and forlh. Unfortunate ly, the house has two extra bedrooms. Now it seems my husband's sister wishes to unload her high school girl on us because they live on the other side of town and the bus lino docs not run within seven blocks of them. In addi tion to this, my own brother wants up to keep his two sons weekdays only, he said) because we livo near school and his wife must have an opcralion which will put her off her feet for three months. Bluntly speaking, my own three teenagers are more than I can handle and 1 don't want the responsibility of three more. My husband says it's up to me. My mother warns if 1 refuse I'll bo branded by the family as selfish and mean. Help, please. ON THE SPOT Dear Spot: Rooming and hoard ing high school children Is an enormous responsibility, not to mention the additional work. If you do not want to do It. he as blunt with them as you were with me and say no. This makrs more tense than knuckling undrr for fear ol what the relatives will say or thing. Dear Ann Landers: I just lead the letter in your column today from the molher In a T B. hos pital. Since I have lived through the experience I wanted to let her know how my case turned out. My boys were "7 and 9 years of age. My husband had his own trucking business and was away from home a great deal. When the doctor told me I would have to be hospitalized for several months I didn t see how we could manage. We could only obtain part-time help and most of that proved inefficient. However, it is amazing how self-sufficient chil dren can be when put to the test. I returned home well and happy after 10 months. Three years la ter we had a baby girl. I rejoice that I stayed away from my family that 10 months and did not risk infecting them. Inci dentally, the boys learned to do great many things for them selves and will be better hus bands because of It. MRS. O.A.P. Dear Mrs. P.i Many thanks for your fine letter.

KIDNAPKR SENTENCED LAGOS, Nigeria (UPD -Oluse-gun Ade, S4, has been sentenced to eight years at hard labor and six cane strokes for kidnaping a 10-year-old girl and selling her Into slavery lor (1,120. Ada pleaded for leniency at his sentencing Thursday because his; an ordinary Colt's Navy pistol. "The bows of Ogillalla and Brule Sioux, Arapahoes, Cheyennes, and most of live Indians east of the Rocky Mountains, are from thirty. two to forty inches long, of great elasticity and tension, so that they can easily drive an arrow through a two-inch plank, and even through a man or buffalo." mis on-the-spot reporting is quoted by Ralph W. Andrews in a book just published by Superior Publishing Company, Seattle In the book, "Indians as the Westerners Saw Them," Andrews ignores the story of the period as set down years afterwards by pro fessional historians. Instead he presents accounts by early set tlers "who had actual contacts with the Indians and wrote down what they saw and thought." This approach corrects some misapprehensions and also adds data in areas not usually covered by the historians. An account of Sioux Indians published in the Omaha Bee about 1886 or 1887 discussed the Indians' selection of personal names, "One remarkable feature of the Indian nomenclature is that the selections are frequently unchaste and at times shockingly inde cent," the report said. "Although they have instincts of modesty, such as discountenance of expos ure of persons or lewdness of any character, there is no such thing as vulgarity in the speech of the Indian. 'All themes are open to men tion in the presence of both men and women, and matters on which we would feel the utmost delicacy are freely discussed be tween them. The propriety of this is insured by the innocence in which custom allows it. The In dian knows nothing of the sala cious, filthy converse largely com mon to his more enlightened white brother. 'He cannot appreciate the vi cious pleasure excited by a vulgar yarn, for him the subject is mat ter-of-fact and not under the ban of indecency." -V .V', v -f.

KODACOLOR FILM and BUck nd White Film Procmlm - ONE DAY SERVICE UNDERWOOD'S CAMERA SHOP 71 Main French Confident Ben Bella Will Avoid Civil War VPI Foreign News Analyst Notes from the foreign news cables: Face-Saving: Despite Algerian Premier Ah med Ben Bella's tough talk against the Kabylian rebels, French officials art) confident there will be no civil war in Al geria. They believe Ben Bella will do everything to reach a face-saving compromise. Ben Bel la docs not have the military strength to conquer the rebels' Kabylia mountain stronghold which several hundred thousand French troops also failed to re duce during the Algerian war. So far as French relations with Ben Bella are concerned, the French have reacted angrily to the nationalization of all French farmland in Algeria but the French will think twice before taking any sharp reprisals. They want at all costs to avoid pro voking Ben Bella into seizing the Sahara oilfields, too. Macmlllan's Future: Political insiders say it still is a 60-50 bet whether British Prime Minister Harold Macmillan will yield Conservative party leader ship in advance of the coming general elections. Talk now is he is under fire in party councils not so much for staying on but for not making his own wishes clear. It is being argued that this is hamstringing party planning. On Macmillan s side it is said he Is equivocating because he feels there is no agreement on any one man to succeed him. More light on his plans may come when he makes the windup speech at this week's Conservative party con-gress. Red Feelers: Berlin experts are on the alert I for some probing moves by Com munist East Germany after Chan cellor Konrad Adenauer turns over his post to Luduig Erhard. Rightly or wrongly, many Com munists feel there is a possibility Erhard will follow a more "flex ible" policy toward the east bloc than Adenauer. East Germany desperately wants credits and trade with West Germany. One move might be to see whether some minor concession, such as permission to West Berliners to visit East Berlin, would draw a favorable response from Erhard on financial questions. Spaniih Cabinet: Madrid observers expect a shuffle of Generalissimo Francis co Franco's cabinet this fall, but predict no change in the coun try's basic policies. Ministers effected would be those whose views are considered outmoded in a period when Spain is liberal izing and moving toward full in tegration in the Western world. Khrushchev: Soviet Premier Nikita Khrush chev is preparing a report on Russia's chronic agricultural problems for the November meet ing of the central committee. Since agriculture and the Sino Soviet quarrel continue to take up most of his time, little action is expected on East-West prob lems beyond leisurely discussions of measures to prevent surprise attack, space cooperation and a non-aggression pact between Warsaw and NATO pact nations.
