Origin and History of
Various Indian Tribes
(By E. A. MacMlllan.)
Ada. April 11 —The .Muakogoo ln-
dtaoa originally Included nine dis-
tinct tribes, all speaking a similar
language. Tht-ir habitat extended
from the Ohio and Cumberland riv-
ers on th" north to the Kulf, and
from the Mississippi to the Atlantic
Practically all of those tribes have
become eitinct in Oklahoma. They
Include the Creeks, Choctaws. Chlrk-
ssawH, Seminoles, Koasaii. Yamacraw,
Apaiachia, Yamlsi and Alibamu.
Of the Alibamu there resides on
Deep Creek in the north central part
of the state about thirty members of
this tribe affiliated with the Creeks
They have been, since prehistoric
time, a sedentary people They held
peculiar views and among the
Creeks were • onsider. ci fanatical sn
much so that Intermarriage was not
common. They held to a peculiar
( nstom of flogging their children, a
custom practiced at their annual fes-
tival. The infliction of punishment
was believed to more deeply Impress
the wjung with the seriousness of
the festal oi caiion and that it made
them better tribesmen.
The Apallchi tribe ia entirely ex-
tinct, the last survivor having died
a few year* ago near Sapulpa. They
were more closely allied to the
Choctaws than to the Creeks. They
were agriculturist and were noted
for their Industry. DeSoto visited
them In 1639 and made his winter
headquarters with them, owing to
their aboundance of supplies.
Several Koastl are known to live
among the Creeks, and a number of
Creeks today trace lineage to this
tribe As a tribe they seem to have

been less stable than the Musko-
geans. They were of a lively dlspo-1
sitlon, less sedentary in their habits.
« nd their tribal life not so fully
known. Two settlements of the Ko-
asti Indians are in the state—one
near Eufaula and the second twelve
miles southwest of Sapulpa.
The Yamacraw, while considered
a distinct tribe, were in fact merely
a detached Creek clan. In early
time they were driven out of the
lower Creek country, owing to their
(riminal tendency. They wandered
many years and at last sought re-
instatement among their brothers.
Tradition states that they after re-
mained faithful to their brothers
and became one of the leading clans
of thf Creeks. Many Creeks today
claim lineage to the Yamacraw.
The Yamasee were a well-known
tribe, having figured prominently in
the early history of South Carolina.
They were warlike and in the strug-
gle of the colonists in South Caro-
lina were allies of the English. They
wero forced from the Palmetto state
and sought refuge in Florida, where
they were received with open arms
by the Spaniards, and remained their I
faithful allies ns long as the Span-
iards held Florida. When Florida
passed from under Spanish domina-
tion the Yamasee were driven into
the fastenesses of the Everglades
and being unaccustomed to miasmic
conditions they rapidly declined, so
much so that, when the Seminole
migration was made to Oklahoma
only twenty Yamasee were included.
Several had united with the Hitchita
but in every case their presence
tended to decimate the clan with
whom they united. The number—if
any now residing In Oklahoma is
unknown. Probably several Semin-
oles can trace lineage to the Yam-
asee.
Of the remaining tribes of the
Muskogeans, the Chickasaws, Choc-
taws, Creeks and Seminoles, the
general reader is conversant. Each
of these had several clan divisions
who greatly affected their tribal
lives. The blood of the Euchee had
a wonderful influence on the Creeks.
Contact—and in some cases inter-
marriage—with criminal negroes has
left Its impress on the Seminoles.
The Choctaws have added to the
progress of civilization and have
grown in numbers.
With the coming of statehood the
tribal life of the nine Muskogean
tribes ceased to exist. .

Hoosier
White Beautv
Tomorrow, ONLY $1 puts this
NEW HOOSIER in your home
on the famous Hoosier Plan.
You may choose between the celebrated
"White Beauty," whose picture is shown
here, and one of the other Hoosiers,
finished inside in oak.
The terms of the Hoosier Plan are these:
1. $1 puts the cabinet you choose
in your home.
2. $1 weekly quickly pays for it.
3. The Low Cash Price fixed by
the factory prevails strictly.
4. No interest. No extra fees.
5. This sale is under direct super-
vision of the Hoosier Company.
6. Your money back if you are not
delighted with your Hoosier.
Only those women who grasp this opportunity tomor-
row can be sure of getting one of these cabinets on this
liberal Hoosier Plan. You realize of course that these
terms could not be offered except on a very limited num-
ber of cabinets. After this sale—
1. The "Hoosier Plan" terms will be withdrawn.
2. Our regular furniture terms will then prevail.
THE IMMEDIATE CLOSING of this sale may
. —— be caused tomor-
row by the number of women who enroll on this Hoosier
Plan. If all the women who nerd Hoosiers should come
tomorrow, our allotment would be taken before night and
the sale would close. This has happened tn many similar
sales throughout the country. On the other hand, it
women delay, the sale may last all week. This too has
happened. Which now is best for you—to delay and take
the chances of missing this opportunity or to come down
tomorrow and find out about this cabinet so you can decide
before it is too latet
It cannot take you ten minutes to
decide, once for all, whether you
intend to purchase now or later
—And you are deciding, remember,
whether or not you will save miles
of unnecessary steps you now take
But unless you at once decide, you may decide too late
to own this greatest of all Hoosier cabinets on this liberal
Hoosier Plan. 700,000 women already have Hoosiers.
Thousands are buying this New Hoosier every week. You
Ehould without fail grasp your opportunity and see this
cabinet tomorrow.
4mmm Metal Meai Bin
(V\ The Hoosier Metal Flour Bin holds
\yj fifty pounds. It is low and easy to
611. The sliding glass front enables you
to clean the entire bin easily. The in-
side is entirely of metal with no corners
to hold flour. First flour in is always
out first.
4m Ant-Proof Casters
/ The New Shaker Flcur Sifter is the
v^*/ most wonderful of all the New
Hoosier inventions. It is the only flour
sifter ever made on a kitchen cabinet
that shakes flour through instead of
grinding it through. It cannot wear out
and cannot grind through any grit or
foreign substance that might be in the
flour.
Twenty of these features are
described IN OUR WIN-
DOW DISPLAY which will
be the talk of the town next
week—come in and find out
about the others.
/C\ A Big, Extra Roomy Drawer in the
VP) base is made entirely of metal for
the proper storage of all kitchen linen,
towels, dish cloths, etc. The drawer
is noiseless, rustless, and easy to keep
clean.
A new feature in the Base Cupboard
WJ is a narrow shelf conveniently
located for the storage of canned articles.
Most women will find this a great con-
venience as an "emergency shelf.'* It
will save many trips to the cellar or
pantry.
TOMORROW YOU may examine
all the new features. You incur
no obligation. But you should
come early so you can study them
all carefully. Our stock of White
Beauty patterns is limited. You
may be too late to get one on the
HOOSIER PLAN if you delay.
Gome and SEE this remarkable
NEW Hoosier tomorrow.
