(L It was Supervisor Lipps who conceived the ~dea of establishing at Chilocco-in the INDIAN PRINT SHOP-a sort of Clear­ mg House for the best of the Indians' Product. It was his main intention to help ~e Southwest Indians-the secondary idea being to maintain, in the Indian Serv­ Ice, a Place where the "uninitiated" could purchase Navajo Blankets and Pottery, together with any other Indian Handicraft. without fear of being imposed upon. (tThis Plan was very successful, and the idea grew. from a small beginning, into ; gOOd business until. upon change of school management, it was abandoned, and .Or. sever alb' years no effort has here een made to eIther help these Ind"dIans or al m estabrIshing a larger market for their goods.

Chilocco, Oklahoma. (tEverything as re,resented ~be (bilocco 3Jnbian j,cbool. HlLOCCO is supposed to be an Indian word, but no one has been found who knows its derivation or original meaning. To a vast army of young people. however. it has now come to mean Opponunity. 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 ideal and some courage. The Institution was established and is maintained by the United States Government. not to [lire 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 ad­ ded 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 given to all students. Instrumental music is taught to those who manifest talent for it, a nominal fee beillg 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 livelihood in a congenial envi­ ronment as a farmer to everyone in any other pursuit. 2. His capital is practically 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, ~lasonry, Shoe and Harness Making 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 )/ursing. It is impossible to tell all about the school's facilities on a page. and it is enough to say there is 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 VIEWS A Work of Art for Your Den or Indian Room Th, Pu,blo of W .lpi.
