RED MEN SHOW RAPID GROWTH SINCEJFOUNDING Order Has 52,000 Members in Indiana, Property Worth SIBI,OOO. Prom the first Indianapolis tribe formed with a few members May 2, 1869, the Improved Order of Red Men has grown to an organization of fourteen tribes in Indianapolis with 52,000 members and property valued at SIBI,OOO. The group in Indianapolis originally was patriotic and political in nature. John A. McGaw, cigar stand proprietor of the old Bates House, was one of the leading members, and he gathered around him the prominent politicians of the day. But soon after, in the Indiana organization, politics was dropped, completely. Farmed in State in 1869 No record is available on the date of the organization of the first Indiana tribe at Patriot, Ind. The Great Council of Indiana was organized Dec. 19, 1869, and the first great sachem was F. A. Jester, Patriot, Ind. The national history of the Red Men order is the outgrowth of American history making and is traced by members back to Colony days in 1760 before the Revolution. In 1760 when British oppression of colonists was becoming particularly distasteful, societies were organized to resist. These secret societies were called the Sons of St. Tamina and the Liberty Boys, and were known by other names. All generally were known as Sons of Liberty. All adopted the Indian dress. Fostered in Army "The Boston Massacre’’ and "The Boston Tea Party" were clashes between Sons of Liberty and the English. After the tea party the name “Red Men” was applied to various sections of the Sons of Liberty, all of which were united by bonds of patriotism. All wore the Indian dress. During the revolution, the Sons of Liberty or the Red Men, with freedom as their object, organized groups Within the Continental Army. The name "Sons of St. Tamina’’ was adopted during the war, with the motto of “Freedom and Friendship.” Washington, Lafayette and other leaders were taken in. After peace was established little was heard of the Sons of St. Tamina. In 1783, General Steuben called a meeting of officers, and, with the approval of Washington, organized the Society of Cincinnati. Absorbed by Red Men Membership was limited to officers and passed on to their oldest sons. The aristocratic idea back of the organization was denounced by the rank and file of the Army, who mostly were members of the Sons of St. Tamina. The Sons of St. Tamina was revived and the Tammany Society or Columbian Order was founded. While these groups were political, they had their social features and paid benefits to sick members as early as 1784. Aside from the New York Tammany societies, most of the others eventually were absorbed by the Improved Order of Red Men. During the war of 1812, St. Tamina members reorganized the order into the Red Men. In 1835, at a meeting in Baltimore, politics was eliminated, with a motto of “Freedom, Friendship and Charity,” and the name Improved Order of Red Men adopted. The old ritual of the Saint Tamina societies and the societies of Red Men was revised. In 1847 the Great Council of the United States was formed. The first council of the Degree of Pocahontas was founded in Philadelphia Feb. 28, 1887. with the legend of the Indian princess, Pocahontas, and the virtues of her life as the basis for the ritualistic ceremonies. The order now has a membership of more than 90,000. ANNIVERSARY OBSERVED Forty-Fifth Natal Day Celebrated by Woodmen C'amps.

E. X. Chinese Restaurant Found to Be Frat House A BEWILDERED laundry wagon driver stopped a group of co-eds nx the Butler University campus at Irvington one chilly afternoon and inquired for “A Chinese restaurant named E. X.” The co-eds knew of no Chinese eating house, but they referred him to several restaurants in the Irvington business district. The driver’s inquiries were met with slow shakes of the head. No one knew of the Oriental establishment. An oppressive evening dusk finally settled on the twisted Irvington streets and found the pathetically searching laundryman still looking for the “Chinese restaurant named E. X." He saw a group of men students coming from the athletic field house. One last effort; he would ask them and then go back to the office. Taking the bundle in his arms, he hailed the group. “Say, boys,” he asked, pointing to the name on the package, “where is this place?” “Right here, the Sigma Chi fraternity house,” they said. And hanging over the door the laundryman saw the “E. X.” he had been looking for. It was the Greek letter symbols for the fraternity name which resemble closely the English letters. And now the “Sigs” at Butler have a reputation to live down. What Is the funniest thing that ever happened in your lodge? Address letters to Fraternal Editor, The Indianapolis Times.
