;HILOCCO is supposed to be an Indian word, but no one has found who knows its derivation or original meaning. To a vast army of young people, however, it has now come to mean Opportunity. Ever since 1884 there have been passing into its doors Indian girls and boys needing and looking for training to fit them for the duties and obligations that hence­ forth must be performed and assumed by them if they are to count at all in our National scheme, and emerging therefrom the same young people to whose natural equipment has been added some learning, some skill, some ideals and some courage. The Institution was established and is maintained by the United States Government, not to !lil'e its students anything but to loan them each a few hundred dollars, worth of board, clothing and tuition. The tuition is in the following lines: ACADEMIC. -The course extends through nine grades. The common school course of Oklahoma is completed in the first eight and the ninth is add­ ed to permit a more complete development of the sciences related to agricul­ ture. Special teachers of Agriculture. Mechanical drawing and music are pro­ vided and instruction gi Yen to all students. Instrumental music is taught to those who manifest talent for it, a nominal fee being charged for this individ­ dual training. INDUSTRIAL. -Special stress is placed upon the subject of Agriculture for these reasons: 1. The Indian has nine chances to earn a liwlihood in a congenial envi­ ronment as a farmer to everyone in any other pursuit. 2. His capital is pract:cally all in land, of which he must be taught the value. and which is appreciated as of any considerable value only when he has gained the skill and perseverance by means of which he can make it highly productive. On our large farm are employed competent instructors in Farm­ ing and Stock-raising, Gardening. Dairying and Horticulture. Other industries are Printing, Engineering. Carpentry, Blacksmithing, Masonry. Shoe and Harness )laking and Painting. In all departments the equipment is good and the instructors capable workmen and teachers. The girls are furnished instruction in every department of home making, including Domestic Science and Domestic Art and Nursing. It is impossible to tell all about the school's facilities on a page, and it is enough to say there i' no better material plant. there are no better teachers anywhere else, and in more than one department Chilocco is in a class alone. It is expected that all who borrow our opportunities shall return to the United States both principal and interest in intelligent and patriotic service as an improved quality of citizens. In such service alone can the debt be paid. HOPI VI E'WS A Work. of Art for Your Den or Indian Room

JONES, Affairs, a citizen of the finest type and a christIan gen­ tleman He was born in Wales but came to thIs coun­ tr, with his parents when a child. He was for some years connected with the sc-hools of Mineral Point, Wisconsin, his boyhood and m~nhood hOJ?e, aft~~ which he was elected County SuperIntendent. He served hIs commumty furt er as member of the Board of County Supervisors and in the Stale Legislature. He was admitted to the bar, but his study of law was rather for the purpose of better fitting himself for a business career than to become a practitioner. ~ e entered the banking business with EX-Attorney General Wi lson of Wisconsin and later became cashier of the First National Bank of Mineral Point. In 1897 Mr. Jones became Commissioner of Indian Affairs. in which office he remained until 1902, when, much to the regret of the true friends of Indian progress, he resigned. Later he declined reappointment because of the strong attachment of himself and ~Irs . Jones for their home and their neighbors. His nearly eight years as CommiSSioner witnessed great advance along all lines of Indian progress. It was pre-eminently a business administration con­ ducted by a business man. t-;eyer before was so much done in the way of throw­ ing the individual Indian UPOI his Own resources. The policy of treating with tribes gave way to one of taking the individual into account. Except to the old the issuance of rations was practicall y discontinued. Reservations were by al­ lotment broken up into severalty holdings as rapidly as the various tribes were found ready for such treatment, and where they were unprepared, measures were vlgorou ly taken to reach preparedness. Regulations for the sale of in­ herited lands were adopted and plans made for use of the proceeds in building houses and ~urchasing equipment for farming. The IndIan School system during ~Ir. Jones' tenure of office made such sig­ nal. advance .that it became a model to those seeking to develop a rational edu­ catIOnal pohcy for practical non-Indian youth.

Moreover. when you left his presence, if you were hone t, you felt as­ sured you had talked with a big man who treated you as an equal. While Mr. Jones filled a number of important public offices and always with distinction, he never sought any of them. He was a man of such fine charac­ ter and ability that he was wanted in positions of trust. He preferred life with his family and among his neighbors. So well did he stand with the lat­ ter that it was quite common to settle any difficulties. not by litigation but by calling in "Will Jones" as arbiter, and his decisions always satisfied. In his business and official career, and particularly in his home life, he pre­ sentsa splendid example ofthat kind of citizen that enriches his country. His intimate friend. Supervisor John Charles. says of him- and the statement finds echo in the hearts of all who knew him well . 'Mr. Jones had a kind heart; his sympathies were on the side of the one needing help and encouragement every time and many have received material aid at his hands. His judgment was sought by friends and neighbors. and the entire com munity was his neigh­ borhood. The workers in the Service realize that his heart was in his work and the polices he inaugurated were generally wise and helpful. He was uni­ versally liked. and his death is mourned throughout the field."

While all the nation mourns the death of Vice-President ANOTHER FRIEND James Schoolcraft Sherman our Service people are partic­ OF THE RED MAN ularly touched because of his long and intimate association GONE. with Indian Affairs. For many years previous to his promotion by the people to the Vice-Presidency he was Chairman of the House Committee on Indian Affairs and in that position his great abilities were directed toward the development of an Indian policy that would soonest and most mercifully transform a dependent race parting regret­ fully from a past of comparative indolence and consequent uselessness into one the individuals of which would be independent one of the Government's resources instead of a liability. He was a regular attendant of the Mohonk Conferences of Friend of the Indians and presided over its deliberations more than once. His views had great weight among the people attending these conferences for his ideas were born of an intimate study of existing conditions and an active desire to improve them. The Xation has lost an able citizen and the Indian people a strong friend. THE WORK OF CHILOCCO Ii SHORT STORIES
