Libertx loan the Indians are doing
their share with a line courage which
gives one more illustration of the in
capucif> ot the ilerman mind tor com
pitting the bond between the races in
a fight tor freedom.
Subscriptions by the Indians to the
Libert} loans have totaled nearly
$ld.uoo,oon, according to figures com
piled by Cato Sells, Commissioner of
Indian Affairs. That Is a subscrip
tion, and to preliminary training in
the I'nited States Adults and minors
have been about equally represenetd
among the siibseribers
The number of Indians in the mili
tary service is more than 5.'mu Mr.
Sells is having prepared a complete
, record of their participation in the
great war. About 2.200 of the total
( have been indexed and classified,
showing 1.800 in the army. 2oo in the
navy and loti In other military work
Their willngness to bear their share
of the hardships and dangers of mili
i tary life is evidenced by the fact that
! 1.600 of those classified volunteered
i for service, while 60o were drafted—
i probably a greater percentage of vol
unteers than can he shown by any
other of the numerous races repre
sented In the United States.
As a soldier the Indian makes good
with a rush. Indian schools with an
attendance of 30,000 annually, have
military drill, almost without excep
| tion of about $40 for all Indians iu
' military life, the young soldier adds
traditionally fine physique. One In
ti lan school has a service flag with
| 150 stars, all but 15 representing vol
unteer enlistments. Another school
has a flag of 175 stars
While the young braves are over
seas fighting an enemy whose cruelty
is more refined and deadly than the
uncivilized Indians ever practiced,
the grizzled old warriors of other
drys, men who remember when the
American West was only emerging
from a wilderness and the white man
still was regarded as a foe, remain on
the reservations, smoking the pipe of
peace with their white neighbors and
preaching the doctrine of patriotism
to their people. Sons and grandsons
of Chiefs John Crass, Joseph. John
Call and other Indian leaders are in
the United States army.
Indian women, likewise, are doing
their share hy aiding in Red Cross
work. Although a complete vocation
nl course of four years in nursing is
i of comparative recent introduction in
the larger schools in the reservations.
1 six young women have been excepted
; for hospital service abroad and otiiers
| are being prepared for similar work,
i One reservation boasts of a Red Cross
banner In every home Saturday
afternoons are devoted by most of
the women to sewing for army hos
j pitala and the boys give their holidays
to gathering sphagnum moss In the
hogs and marshes for use in surgical
pads and ambulance pillows,
Seperate units for Indians have not
been organized by the army because
of the desire to have them rub elbows
with fellow citizens and become ac
