There are four Indian schools un-
der the jurisdiction of the Kiowa In-
dian Agency at Anadarko, the Rainy
Mountain school, two at Anadarko
and one at Lawton. On account of
the Rainy Mountain school being in
the worst repair, it has been slated
to go, according to information re-
ceived in Hobart, from good sources.
The department go< ? on the theory
that the public schools can take care
of the Indian children as well as the
g jviernmnet maintained Bchool, but
such has not proven to be the case.
Three of the four Indian schoo's

the other 120. All of the schools arc

'The enumeration of the popula- =
tion during a census of the United =
States always presents numerous dif-
ficuljtiesr—among them apprehension
on the part of the people, particular-
ly those of foreign birth or extrac-
tion, that their answers to the enu-
merator's questions will cause increas
ed taxation, legal entanglements or
other consequences injurious to their
welfare. The schools can assist ma-
terially in quieting such unfounded
fears and at the same time acquaint
all persons with the main questions
in the census schedules.
It is therefore, earnestly hoped
that school teachers will see the op-
portunity presented them as public
servants who come in contact with
large numbers of people to correct
any erroneous opinions about the cen
sus which they may hear. It no
less earnestly hoped that the school
children will convey to their homes

Hurrah!
We have killed the League of Nations!
Ha, Ha! Ho, Ho! Come hither, jackals, wolves,
hyenas!
The lions have finished. Wc begin.
The lions fought at the Marne, at Chateau Thierry
Argonne Wood.
Parsifals, pure fools, they died for the Ideal.
They thought they would end War.
That when they tad smashed the Hun they would
end the Old Order.
The Old Order of mad National Vanities.
Of vast armies and navies, crushing impoverishing
the workers, draining the State, wasting the fruits of
labor.
The Old Order—Militarism, enveloping, strangling
every Nation as a shirt of Nessus.
We have undone all that. We have shattered the
Unity of the Allies they achieved.
We have hurled insult to France, Italy, England
our late companions in arms.
We have smashed the President, with his proud
Idealism, stained his plume with blood, his shield with
grime.
We have butchered the Hope of the World with
the knife of Party Politics.
We have published abroad that Americans are
good quitters and bad sports.
That we will fight for our own safety, but will do
nothing to save the world.
Let the Armenian starve, and the Turk raven, and
the Poles perish, and all the world burn up.
What do we care? What do the jackals care for
the visions in the brain they munch?
Come boys!- Circle and dance! Join hands and
sing!
Bark, Sherman! Caper, Reed! Boast, Borah!
Laugh, Lodge!
Up with a Nationalism that means selfishness,
shame, truculence, and another war!
Down with an Americanism that means Coopera-
tion, Faith, Brotherhood and similar twaddle!
Berlin rejoices. The Bolshevists chortle! Mon-
archists and reactionaries all over the world smile and
say, "I told you so!"
War is not dead. War lives. We have saved it.
Build greater navies! Increase your armies! Ex-
pand your cannon factories and powder mUls.
Get ready for the next war.
Save your little boys, O Mothers. Be careful of
them. We'll need them soon.
We have killed the League.
$We have enacted the greatest Crucifixion since
our forefathers nailed the dreamer Christ to the cross.
We have killed the League.
Let there be a holiday in Hell. E

Europe, according to an announce-
nent made by Dr. W. B. Beauchamp,

ind a Church Commission have Just
■eturned from Europe.
For this purpose a large home, for-
r.erly a famous boys' school, has been
purchased at Uccle, a suburb of Brus-
tels. Several hundred children can
>e accommodated in this building, and
he Methodists wlll assume entire re-
iponsiblllty for them and their future.
Another home has been bought at
3elgrade, Servia, and here the under-
'ed orphans of the Southern Slavs will
)e given medical attention and cared
!or. A staff of women physicians,
iecured from Scotland, will be In
:harge of this home.
Still another orphanage has been
taken over at Faversham, England.
This home already contains more than
i hundred Serbian children, orphaned
refugees who were taken from their
Homes during the Austrian invasion.
Plight of Children Deplorable.
"One can scarcely imagine the
plight of the Belgian and Serbian chil-
dren," declared Dr. Beauchamp. "The
nines of Northern France have been
flooded or filled with concrete by the
Hermans, and thousands of children
'will literally freeze to death this win-
ter.
"I have seen them living in the old
trenches and dug-outs left by the en-
amy, with little to eat save what Is
gittaered from the passers-by."
Itelief stations will be established-
as quickly as workers can be obtained
and supplies sent. These will be at
Brussels, Ypres, St. Quentln. Montdl-
dier. Belgrade and other centers.

WASHINGTON.—The value of the

1919 was nearly three times more
than the average annual value in the
five years preceding the war, Secre-

have recently prevailed, he says, the
total value of this year's crops of all Ci«i icgioiauuu a™ -n-*—
