States, a period of warm weather late
in autumn, usually characterized by a
clear sky, and by a hazy or smoky ap-
pearance of the atmosphere, especially
near the horizon. The name is de-
rived from the custom of the Indians
| to use this time in preparation for
from their belief that it Is caused by
a wind blowing directly from the
court of the southwestern god.” How.
ever, he expands upon the theme by
giving two quotations, one from Free-
man and the other from the National
| Intelligencer, in regard to this season.
The first quotation from Freeman, is
as follows:
i The southwest is the pleasantest
wind which blows if New England. In
the month of October, in particular,
after the frosts which commonly take
place at the end of September, It fre-
quently produces two or three weeks of
| fair weather, in which the air is per-
{ fectly transparent, and the clouds,
| which float in the sky of purest azure,
| are adorned with brilliant colors. This
| charming season is called the Indian
| summer, a name which is derived from
! the natives, who belleve that it is
| caused by a wind which comes imme-
| diately from the court of their great
| and benevolent god, Cautantowwit, or
{| the southwestern god,
| The explanation from the National
| Intelligencer also is based upon an
i aboriginal custom. It says:
The short season of pleasant weather
occurring about the middle of Novem
ber is called the Indian summer, from
| the custom of the Indians to avail
themselves of this delightful time for
harvesting thelr corn. It is a bland
and genial time, in which the birds, in.
sects and plants feel a new creation,
The sky in the meantime is generally
filled with a haze of orange and gold,
intercepting the direct rays of the sun,
yet possessing enough of light and heat
10 prevent sensations of gloom or chill,
while the nights grow sharp and frosty
and the necessary fires give cheerful
forecast of the social winter evenings
near at hand
80 here are two authorities dis
agreeing on both the time-—one says
October and the other November—of
Indian summer and the reason for the
name, Perhaps the earliest known
reference to the term was that made
by a Frenchman, St, John Crevecoeur,
tn 1778 when he was living at Pine
Hill, Orange county, N. Y, In an essay,

American Farmer,” printed in 1782, he
called It *I'Ete Sauvage,” a free trans.
lntion of which would be “Indian sum-
mer.” In this essay he sald, “After
the fall of but any
snowfall, comes a rainy period. Great
rains at last replenish the springs, the
brooks, the swamps and impregnate
the earth. Then a severe frost
ceeds which prepares it to receive the

ceded by a short interval of smoke
and mildness, ealled the Indian sume
mer. This is in general the invariable
rule:
begin until these few moderate days
and the rising of the waters have an-
nounced it to man”
The origin of the term, which is
most widely known, occurs in a book
printed several years later than
Crevecoeur's essay, This was Dr,
Joseph Doddridge’s “Notes on the Set-
tlement and Indian Wars of the
Western Parts of Virginia and Penn.
gylvania From 1763 to 1783." Dodd-
ridge traces the term back to early
colonial times when Indians still were
a menace to the backwoods settlers,
All during the summer, settlers in
the more harassed sections had to
live behind stockades in constant
dread of Indian raids. When the chill
blasts of winter came on, everyona
breathed a sigh of relief. No longer
would the Indians attack. The sever.
ity of the winter would prevent that
danger.
The hemmed-in settlers now took
to the open, going to their log cabins
outside with the joyful feeling of
men released from prison,
It happened sometimes, however,
that the welcome Inclement weather
gave way to a few days of unseason-
able warm weather, This was called
indian summer because it gave the
Indians another chance to wage de-
structive warfare against the colonists

Casual readers of pootry sometimes

the noun “wind” rhymed with such
words as “blind” or “find” But, ac
cording to the Mentor Magazine, the

of the old-time poets, but with that of
modern readers, The noun belongs to
a group of words which for many cen

loug vowel. The group Includes kind,

bind, wind, find, The New Standard

When Birds Sleep
Very few laymen can understand
why a tree-perching bird does not fall
oft the slender branch when It goes
to sleep and becomes unconscious,
The answer is that it cannot, accord:
ing to Mr, Richard Kearton, the well:
known ornithologist. The bending of
the knees in the act of sitting down,
he says, tightens the muscles of the
toes in such a way as virtually to
lock the sleeping bird to its perch,
and It cannot leave until they are
straightened and the muscles of the
toes are relaxed.
