Senior Citizen's Adult Catnp The Older Adult Camp for senior citizens began Monday, Aug. 25, at Epworth Forrest Rev. Davison took registrations in the afternoon. Each morning devotions were by Dr. Ernest Lawshe, there was hobby time with Rev. Damon Finch as leader, and Tuesday and Wednesday afternoons speakers gave special programs. Professor Shultz, formerly of Manchester college, spoke Tuesday about the “Indian Influence on Indiana”. He appeared wearing a Cherokee headdress and giving the greeting “socum” meaning “heap good”. The Indian is the least understood of all Americans. Where did the Indian come from in the first place One theory is that they emigrated from Siberia to this continent. We know they had many tribes, they were wanderers, and they lived by their wits. Had it not been for the Indians the first settlers, the Pilgrinns, would have died from starvation. Foods such as corn, beans, peanuts and squash were gifts the Indians taught the white man to raise. The name of our state means “land of the Indians”. There are 26 states having Indian names. Our county is blessed with lakes and rivers named by Indians. Wawasee means “full moon”, and Waubee means “half moon”. \ Professor Shultz had many artifacts of Indian origin. He showad a stone grinder, poison cup, hoes, anvil, axes, scrapers, pick and sledge. Aslo a plumb bob, shell hoe, war club and rattle. He read the Indian song “God of The Mountains” and closed with the sign language of the Indian. A film on Warren Memorial Home with Chet Huntley narrating was shown Wednesday. It showed forms of recreation afforded the residents, art work they do with trained teachers, and living in general. Rev. Albert 1 Clark, chaplain there was present to answer questions. Rev.
