Bar A THE INDIAN PROBLEM There has been an Indian problem in tlement, but that problem is being solved by the gradual abserption of the Red Man into our general population, according to former Secretary Wilbur of the Depart- | oe ment of the Interior. We have about 350,000 persons of In- dian blood in the entire country, of whom about one-third are in Oklahoma! The rest are widely scattered among 25 states, even the reservation Indians are intermar. | rying with the white population and-are rapidly assuming the white man’s manner: of living. A notable exception to this | general trend is seen among the Nayajos. of Arizona, who have a reservation as large as New Jersey and still hold aloof from the paleface. It is the policy of the government to encourage the remaining Indians to obtain education and training with a view to their giving up reservation life and taking their places among the independent citizenship ofthe country. There are maintained 293 day and boarding schools for Indian pupils, where instruction, food, lodging and cloth- ing are furnished free by Uncle Sam. These |. are priviliges granted to no other element ef our population. Dr. Wilbur declares that it has become Pobvious that the Red Man eventually must lose his identity and become as the rest of and adds: “From a sentimental stand- int there is much to regret in this fact, but it is none the less inevitable.” FAKE PRIZE SCHEMES’ ‘A rather ancient scheme for separat- ing the unwary from their money is being worked again, both in the United States and Canada, according to the leading busi- ness men’s magazine. The plan is to insert an advertisement | containing a perfectly simple puzzle which anyone can easily solve, and offer prizes for correct solutions. A favorite prize is a “building lot.” Of course, anyone who sends in a so- lution of the puzzle wins a lot, but he is informed that he will be expected to remit a small sum—in one case $7.75—for the deed and other incidental expenses con- nected with the transfer of the property. The “lot” is very small and the $7.75 fees alone would net the seller around $200 an acre for some worthless land. So, if the “winner” swallows that bait he is out just $7.75 for the privilege of working the puzzle, while his name is pass- ed along to other swindlers as that of an easy mark. There are many perfectly legitimate prize offers advertised in. various periodi- cals, but those which require a payment of eash before the prize is delivered are gen- erally fradulent and should be shunned. THE COST OF COMFORT In a discussion of family budgets, a recent writer asks the question: “What is comfort worth?” In these days of chang- ing values it is difficult to say just what | anything is worth. But is may be accepted as a general 1 ‘principal that the: wise householder will } endea: the not only comfort, but which effect econ- oS ween {one as the Public Works Board has not definitely: refused the requested loan for the bridges, there must still be a chance to secure it. Why the board has not def- initely refused the loan, elicits two specu- lations. Either it has been decided to re- fuse the loan and the denial is postponed be it is an unpleasant task, or the has the loan still under advisement and is waiting to see if the scales will not - turn more favorably before granting the loan. Recently a letter was sent to the NRA and was assigned to one of the deputy ad- ministrators to read. The letter demand- ed a modification of the lumber code stat- ing that it was working hardships on small sawmills in the South. The letter was from Brunswick, Ga., and signed “W. F. George.” In reply, Mr. George received a rather sassy note giving him a lecture on the recovery program and concluded with the advice that he read the act. The consternation of the deputy may be im- agined when he received a curt retort from Mr. George that he had not. only read the act, but was one of the senators on the con- ference committee which framed it. Wow! | ito buy those things which bring omies as well, ‘There is.no general yardstick, so each vahié must be’ judged by what it will ac- complish for the comfort and general well- being of the family. If there were only one modery contrivance in the whole coun- try, for instance, and it were impossible to obtain another, some wealthy person might willingly pay thousands of dollars for it to secure the advantages it would give his family. The writer quoted answers his own question by saying that comfort is generally worth far more than it costs, and that we often fail to appreciate how much of real comfort and satisfaction a moderate ex- penditure will buy. | SHE KEY WEST CIviziil Poeecececerccroccaeerces sense sceene: Daily Cross-word Puzzle. the United States ever since its earliest set- | Seeeeeeoenvecnccqcoccncoenaeenesccoosocomacesees Solution of Yesterday's Puzzle ACROSS. 1.

Ago Today Ac Teken From | The Files Of The Citizen i The Times of Cuba, in an at- tempt to give a little free ad- vice to the Isle of Pines, refers to what it terms the “Big Freeze” in Florida when frost reached Key West. The assertion that frost has been seen in this city at any time sinee the establishment of the weather bureau, 21 years be- fore the alleged “Big Freeze” in 1894-5, is absolutely false. Of course The Citizen does not at-/ tempt to deny that there was) that time, but it does deny that that kind of weather was exper- ienced in his city. The Citizen reiterates the statement that Key ‘West is the only frost free city in the United States. It is expected that the work of lrepairing Windsor Lane will be way forees. The lane was torn up with earth and rocks piled high on both sides of the streets. when the board of public works found it expedient to transfer the work- men to Bayview Park projects and to lay concrete sidewalks. The question of whether or not the work on the municipal golf course will be continued after the nine holes have been constructed will come up tonight at a joint meeting of the city council, board board of consulting engineers. There is a difference of opinion as to whether or not it will be wise to continue when the course is com- pleted. The matter will be de- cided at the meeting tonight. A beautiful wedding was solemnized last night at St. Paul’s Episcopal church when Miss Ottilee Knight, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Eugene Knight became the bride of E. Reginald Albury, Jr. The ring ceremony was per- formed by Rev. C. R. D, Critten- den. The newly weds will be at home to their many friends at 1014 Fleming street. First rehearsal of the Key West band was held last night with all members present. Diret- tor Marueei said today that he was very much pleased with the talent he has assembled and be- lieves he will soon have them in shape. When the first concert will be played he did not say, but stated positively the organization will be ready for entertaining well within the time set for the tee concert.
