INDIAN RACE
American Indian Race Is Not
Dying Out—Statistics
Are Given.
lATbAXTK CITY, X. J„ Jan. 27.
Tlit- American Indians us ;l rsc
are nul dying, ns so many ^people
think. On iii.> contrary, they show
this year a slight numerical Increase
as compared to 12 months ago, ac
cording lo -l)r. K. E. Misley, of Chi
cago, superintendent of the .work
a monte Indians or the Hoard of Home
Missions of the Methodist Episcopal
Church.
Dr. Hiyley disclosed this condition
in an tultlr ss at the annual meeting
in tliis city ol th'o Homo Mission
council cf the church. The Indita
census a year ago showed 340,83.3 in
tlia" s; now they number 340,317.
"There is no field of home mission
ary ondeaTin; where Iho spirit and
process's of cooperation among
tiles.' denominational boards ami
workets is more manifested than in
tiler field of Christian work am >ng In
dians," continued Dr. lllgiey.
Missionary Work
“The Christian missionary work
among Indians,' im-ln 1 s a study ol
the missionary stations and native
chupehes, their economic and spirit
uai resources. <2i an estimate of thr
Indian schools, both governmental
and mission, their educational status
t and the opportunity presented for a
•unified religions educational pro
gram; (3) a survey of the 117 reser
vations and other communities wlicr.
! Indians arc to be found in any ap
{ preclable number.
“There are 90,000 Indian boys and
j girls I tween five and IS years of
ug'e who are of school age, about
j dO.OOrt are enrolled in government
| schoolswi tli itO.OOO in public school#,
j and the romaininjT' 30,000 are still
I without school privileges. In tfto
Indian schools especial emphasis is
1 put upon agriculture and horn- er>
j’tomb s. In the large non-reservation
|schools many trade courses are pro
| vided. The manner in which the
Indian Bureau for the last two years
lias worked for the fuller enrollment
of unschooled Indian boys and girls,
is mutter for favorable comment.

Czechoslovak R e p u b 1 ic Is
Ranking High in Relief
Work Say Observers.
j PRAGUE, Jan. ’ 27."—1The help given
Russian students hv the Ozecho
ISlovak Republic has been described
jby outside observers as ranking high
tin the relief work undertaken by one
I nation for another. Indeed, Prague
!has become the focus for construc
tive Russian life abroad. This is
particularly true of the Russian in
tellectuals who have been compelled
to leave their country.
Czechoslovakia today is support
ing some 5,000 Russian students and
professors. I At Prague, independent
of the Czech university, there is the
only Rutisiun Law College in the
world. Here courses are conducted
without government Interference of
any kind. This college is headed by
a Prominent Russian scholar, Pro
fessor Nbvgorotaov, and provides op
portunity for about 400 students
who, a year ago, were leading a use
less existauce in the slums of Con
stantinopl e.
■One of the mast encouraging signs
o! the time is the fact Lliat a large
proportion bf tho Russian students
j here are turning to practical and con
struePive work, ftuch as agriculture
a?jd mechanics. There are many
| agricultural rMubs with which the
i ministry of agriculture cooperates by
| arranging lectures in Czech schools
! and supplying material for the sola
! tion of actual problems. For ex
ample, tho 'Russian wtudents recently

I exists among tho Russians a spirit
of active appreciation of what the
government Is doing for thorn.
Moreover, the Czechs themselves
seem to get along well witii the Rus
sian refugees. The various Russian
Institutions for learning are sup
ported only in part from public
funds, a great deal of the money
for upkeep comes from contributions
and collections among the Czech
public.

eouldn'it bear to part with little
Irene and her attorney assured the
court that his client's income as a
inimical star was enough to ensure
Uio child all the comforts of a real
I home. So tho baby’s name is now
i Leonora Bayes, the same as that of
I her foster . mother.
