Is FORGING ahead Uncle Sam’s School is Doing Wonders for Welfare of the Red Men. — !■ AS A GOOD CITIZEN — 1 ■ lle is Taking His Place With White Man and Proven to be a Christian. ' “lisle Pa„ Nov. 29—Throwing id lacial handicap, the American I l is finding himself and is taking his proper place with the white man i as a good sitizen, true patriot, self-re-specting and self-supporting workman land Christian. ’ This is the theme of the annual reI” 11 ’ lust completed by Superintendint M. Friedman, of the government Indian school here, and which is the result of thorough investigation extending into every phase of aboringal life and into all regions of the country "here the red man now lias his habitat. There is a great gap between the aboriginal American of the days of Longfellow and Cooper, with primiHveness and savagery surrounding him. and the Indian of today,” the report reads. “The modern Indian has put aside petty warfare and intertribal strife, lias forsaken roaming from place to place for tho farm and workshop, and is building a permanent home, which is each year better furnished and more sanitary. “He is now mingling with the neighboring whites on terms or amity and becomes each year more integrally a part of American citizenry. While at first they were usually underestimated by the white, it is being generally accepted that by means of thorough education and because of its influence as a developing factor, the Indian is being redeemed from the old ways of indolence and supersittion. to a capable, self-sustaining individual, differing little except in physical characteristics from the white man. “We find the Indian on the reservation is more productive and industrious. Hundreds of Indians have left the reservation and are taking their place in while communities as re-

spected citizens and competent workmen. They are In the professions, in 1 the trades, in the busy parts of com- 1 mercial life, in the government serv- ; ice and some of the most honored missionaries in the Indian field have Indian blood and were trained and educated in the government schools.” Graduates from the Carlisle school, declares Superintendent Friedman, ' have had a very large share in the work of rejuvenating and civilizing, , their race. "Records which have been gathered ( with great care and at much labor of, 1 the activity of the Indians since 1 the termination of their school career,’’ he says, “have vindicated the far-sighted wisdom of the government in giving the Indians a thorough com-mon-sense education. The educated , Indians are in the van of progress. L | They are among the leaders of their | race, and are rapidly being afforded • | that recognition which every life 1 worthily lived is bound to receive.” The records show that one of the I most successful enterprises the gov- • eminent conducts in connection with the Indian service is the work of finding employment for the Indians, both t j young and old. The system is an outgrowth of the outing system at Carlisle. It was inaugurated and conI ducted by Charles E. Dagenett, a Peoria Indian and a Carlisle graduate. Last year under the department of employment, the Indians earned $374,783,40. f Under its jurisdiction the Indians | have demonstrated that they have , real mechanical ingenuity and are be- _' Ing employed in factories and by some ,1 of the largest railways of the country. , i They are found in the best fields in , * Colorado, on the irrigation projects in I Montana and Utah, in the shops of the Santa Fe railroad al! along its sys- . tern, in the sawmills of Wisconsin, and in the logging camps of the largest forests. 1 Several Carlisle graduates are su--1 perintendents of Indian schools; a t large number of others are teachers i both in academic and industrial . branches of Indian schools. There . are a number of men and women of ; the Indian race who are in the pros sessions. f “They are following with great suc- - cess and credit work in the law and -1 journalism,” reads the report, "as well - as In medicine, engineering, etc. A fair proportion of these professional -, people have obtained their education - 1 at Carlisle, and there received the inI' centive to proceed further and obtain • an advanced education. In nearly all - cases they have worked their way

through the university or college ' they subsequently attended. They are from various tribes, laboring in nearly every part of the country, and are rendering valuable service to their communities. The report shows that of the 532 graduates of the school, 95 are in the government service. Os the clerks and stenographers there are 17; disciplinarians and matrons, 18; instrucI tors, 38; superintendents, 2; supervisors and overseers, 3; interpreters . and watchmen, 7. In the army there (ar 4 Indians; in the forest service, 2; ' navy, 1; one is a postpaster and anI other is a mail carrier. In business, professions and industries, 37 are managers, agents, clerks, salesmen and stenographers; 6 are band leaders and musicians; there are 53 farmers and ranchers. 142 housewives, 13 in business for themselves, 29 following professions, 8 are railroaders, 10 stuJ dents, 75 following trades and 14 are domestics; 33 are working at home , and 3 have no occupations. in the report of ex-students it is shown that 196 are in the government service and 2,214 are in business, in various industries or are following . professions. The average enrollment of the Carlisle school during the year ending June 30, 1911, and for which the annual appropriation for the Indian •' school is made, was 1,021. The aver- . age attendance during the same period was 923 and the total enrollment of different students reached the unprecedented figure of 1,218. —o CLOSE THANKSGIVING.
