published this fall by the United Btates SERVIGE OF FRIEND Fire Thousand Sioux o Help . Honor Dr. Edward Ashley "New York, ‘Aug. 10,—Five thousand Bloux Indians will do unique honor to & pale faced brother in the heart of the South Dakota prairie on August 10, when Rev, Dr, friend ‘of Roosevelt and Custer, of Rain-in-the-Face and Sitting Bull and the long line of Dakotan' braves who, were famous In Indian warfare, will round out his fiftieth year of seryice as a missionary among the Red Men. Dr. Ashley is the sole survivor of the framers of the treaty of 1376 P4 * which 6penéd the Black Hills country to gold seekers, stripping the Indians of their hunting grounds and. inci- dentally leading to the Custer mass- acre at Littl Big Horn. Later he was present on the Cheyenne River reser- vation during the Ghost Dance, or yMessiah Craze, which culminated in the battle of Wounded Knee, where thp Federal troopers avenged the slaughter of Custer and his men, Still later it fell to his lot to Tead to Chris- tianity Chief Gaul, one of the chief Edward Ashley, [* partlclpanm in the Little Big Horn affair, of whom he gives testimony that ‘‘for the rest of his I\{e he was - a conscientious Christian,” As a boy, Dr. Ashley came to Mich- igan from Englund to practice the trade of carpenter. But the mission field attracted him, and within 'a few months he was on his way to the Da- kotas where he entered service under the late Bishop Hare. In the ensuing fifty years his life was spent among the Indians, counselling and advising them, acting as intermediary for them in their relations with the govern- ment at Washington, serving on their tribal councils, ministering to them when they were ill, n.cting as peace maker, drilling them in the ways of civilization. He has been the personal friend ‘and confidant of uuc)} noted chiefs as White Bear, Bad Lodge, Drifting Goose, Rain-in-the-Iace, Sit- ting Bull, Dull Knife, Gaul and oth- 9 ers. - He has mastered half a’ dozen Indian dialects, and ‘for his services in preserving the language of the Yanktons, Sissetons and other tribes of the Sioux nation he has received the degree of LL.D. from the Univer- sity of South Dakota, 7 On the occasion of the anniversary which will mark also the meeting of the Niobrara Convocation of Chri tianized Indians, of which Dr. Ashley is the archdeacon, there will assem- ble 5,000 Sioux who live under the jurisdiction of Rt. Rév., Hugh I. Burleson, Episcopal bishop of South Dakota. ¥rom a radius of five hun- dred miles around the Indians will come to White Horse, which is twen- ty miles from the nearest railroad station, in automobiles, . in = prairie schooners, on horseback, or in primi- tive conveyance made from tepece poles; and in the heart of the Great American Desert will erect acity of tepees, in the center of which will be } thrownh up an open-air tabernacle and alfar. "Here for four days these Christian Indians will hold daily worship, dis- cuss “ ‘the business affairs of their church, make their annual donations for its support, consider tribal affairs, and on the final day of the Convoca- tion, will give fitting observation of the half century of service of the man whose life has been devoted to their temporal as well as their spiritual wel- fare. In large measure, it will be a [ final meeting of the past and the pres- ent, for the Indian whom Dr. Ashley * knew when he first went among them has passed on. This will be a meeting of farmers and herders, of mechanics and shop keepers, even of bankers and wealthy business men, for these Christianized Sioux have finally been absorbed into the civilization of the great west. Those wbo come in leather leggings, buckskin and feath- ered headpieces will simply emphasize the fact. AWARDS FOR BEST COMMUNITY WORK The American Public Health As-| sociation to Give Prizes New York, Aug. 10.—As a result of a study of the health departments of 83 of the largest cities of the coun- try, The American Public Health as- sociation has announced its purpose to offer a series of awards.in recogni- tion of attainment and advancement * of community health service. The status of the health work in different cities will be determined by personal surveys conducted by agents of the as- gociation, and the rating of each city wil be based upon a plan which will be presented for consideration and adoption at the. fitty-second annual 5 meeting of the American Public Health association, to be held in Bos- ton October 8-11. This rating will take account of all health work which the city is doing, either through its health department or local non-offi- cial health organizations. The first series of awards will be ymade to cities of a population of 100,- 000 or over which show the most nearly adequate community health service as of January, 1924. The development of the public health program has been so rapid in recent years that it is by no means easy for the city health officer to make sure that he is keeping up with the procession, or that he is doing the most important things.first and doing them -in the best way. In order to clarify the situation the association representing the public health work- ers of the United States, Canada, Mex- ico and Cuba, some three years ago appointed a committee on municipal health department practice of which Professor C. E. A. Winslow is chair- man, and which includes Dr. C. V. Chapin of Providence, Dr. Haven Emerson of New York city, Dr. Donald B. Armstrong of the National Health council, Professors Freeman and Frost of Johns Hopkins univer- Public Health service as a special bul- letin, 1t is the further purpose” of the committee, in order to promote a spirit of generous rivalry between communities, to make similar nwards in succeeding vears. POTTERY 4,000 YEARS OLD FOOND IN SWEDEN Unusual Number of Relics Centuries Old Are Being Unearthed by Archeologists Stockholm, Aug. 10.—Swedish arch- eologists have lately discovered an unusual number of relics that date back twenty to thirty centuries B. C., the latest find being a tomb and shrine of heathen worship of the Stone Age estimated to be nbout 4,000 years old. This tomb is situated in Lacka- laenga, Skaane, the most southerly province of Sweden, and until a short time ago it lay buried beneath ten different strata of earth. Built ‘of large stone slabs, it has a central chamber about ten feet by five. Around .it is a circular pavement of slabs, from which radiate a number of curious walks marked by stones. A considerable quantity of human and animal bones were found, togeth- er with flint daggers and spear heads, But the most interesting discovery was that of about 7,000 fragments of ornamented vases, which had been thickly strewn outside the tomb. The shattering of these vases probably took place, according to the archeolo- gists, in connection with heathen re- ligious ceremonies. The shaping of the weapons and the ornamentation |says a Berlin correspondent of of the vases indicate an advanced clv- {lization, The Lackalaenga tomb is estimated to be about 4,000 years old, but the Swedes have evidence that their coun- try was inhabited at least 1,000 vears before this tomb was built. A skele- ton of that period, now on exhibition in Gothenburg, was found in an an- cient oyster bed, many miles inland from the present seacoast, at a point from which the sea began receding during the Stone Age. GERMAN'BANK IN PALACE, Branches of Powerful Institution Oc- cupying One-Time Mansion, London, Aug. 10.-—~The Deutsche bank now occupies one of the most beautiful palaces in Berlin, and all the bank’s branches are' housed in one- time palaces or beautiful mansions, the Daily Mail, The value of these acres of sculp- ture and masonry, the correspondent| goes on to say, is returned in the bank report for the first half of 1023 as only 40,000,000 marks which is somewhere in the neighborhood of +§200. - |NEW CAMPAIGN FOSTERS TEGANICAL LEARNING Two-thirds of the Boys Reared in London Enter Upon Unskilled Trades, London, Aug. 10—Two-thirds of the boys reared in London enter casual trades, as unskilled labor and shop- men, and only 13 per cent of them | enter the skilled trades. These figures, which have been pre- pared in the interests of a campaign to furnish greater technical education for London's youth, are said to be higher in. unskilled and lower in skilled trades than any other large city In western Europe or America. This is the result of insufficient technical tedining centers, and the poverty among the . lower - classes, !'which forces the boys to work at very early ages. The campaign which is backed by many welfare organizations will attempt to arouse interest in the establishing of training centers throughout England.
