What Girls Should Know
Should anyone say our lovely, well
bred dainty school girls did not know
as much, nor have such trained judg
ment as a reservation Indian girl,
some of our overworked club women
would take time to start a boycott
against the accuser. But judge for
yourself if the charge could not be
truly made and substantiated.
Here is an abbreviated course of
study that is planned and used by
Uncle Sam's teachers in reservation
schools. The examinations are stifT,
the work- is actually done under super
vision of trained teachers and the In
dian girls delight in standing first in
their classes, just as eastern college
girls do.
Outline of work required in eight
grade reservation schools: Kquipntent
and furnishing of kitchen. Selecting
food supplies for family of six. Care
of cellar. Preparation of paper describ
ing how squirrels, woodpeckers and
beavers store their food.
Care of stove, study of fuels, use of
various ovens. Dishwashing, hemming
of towels, economizing in uso of soap,
making soaps.
Yeast making, bread, biscuit and
cake baking. Dinner rolls, uses of corn
meal. Paper on use of cereals and
breads of all nations.
How to select meat, how to cook
meat. Kinds of fish.
Place of fruit in diet, how to can
it, how to dry it.
Care of beds 'and bed rooms. How
to make furniture, hammock beds,
bookcases, mattresses, carpet weaving.
And so on through the entire house,
"but," objects the modern mother, "I
do not desire to have my daughter
trained like an Indian. I expect her
to have servants to do her work." This
is illogical, many of the Indian girls

i readers of this column. Only a few
! weeks ago we had an example of an
! Indian princess marrying a man of
1 millions. She probably toever used, at
first hand, her remarkable store of prac
tical knowledge. But she told inter
viewers that her proudest possession
was her thorough training in home
| making.
It is a pleasure and a delight to' train
' girls in useful duties and many mothers
can do this, and do it, but as Rastus
says, "the world do move." New ways
i you are unfamiliar with are constantly
discovered, of making A*ork plcasanter
and less irksome. We owe it to the next
generation, whose responsibilities will
be many fold heavier than ours, to
train our girls for home making. We
hope they will never have to do diffi
cult heavy work, but by all means en
courage domestic training in every com
munity and give your young folks the
advantage of the self-reliance it
teaches.

(CONTINUED.)
All Peg's Independent Irish blood
flared up. What would she be doing
shut up in « little white and gold
room all day? She answered the maid
excitedly:
"Tell Mrs. Chi-ster I am not goln' to
do anything of the kind. Aa long as I
stay in this house I'll see every lilt pf
it!" and she swept past the mnid down
the stairs Into the same room for the
third time.
"You'll only get me into trouble,"
cried the mnid.
"No. I won't. I wouldn't get you
Into trouble for the wurrld. I'll get
all the trouble, an" I'll get it now."
Peg ran across, opened the door con
necting with the hail and called out:
"Aunt! Cousins! Aunt! Come here; I
want to tell ye about raeaelf!"
"They've all gone out,"' said the maid
iiuietly.
"Then what are ye makin' such a
fuss about? You go out too."
She watched the disappointed Ben
nett leave the room and then began a
tour of inspection. She had never seen
so many strange things outside of a
museum.
Fierce men in armor glared at her
out of massive frames: old gentlemen
In powdered wigs smiled pleasantly at
her: haughty ladles In breath bereav
ing coifTures stared superciliously right
through her. She felt most uncom
fortable in such strange company.
On the piano she found a perfectly
carved bronze statuette of Cupid. She
gave a little elfish cry of delight, took
the statuette ill her arms and kissed It.
"Cupid, me dnrlln'! Faith, it's you
that causes all the mischief in the
wurrld. ye dlvil ye!" she cried.
All her depression vanished. She
was like a child again. She sat down
at the piano and played the simple re
frain and sang in her little girlish
tremulous voice one of her father's
favorite songs, her eyes on Cupid:
"Oh, the days ar'j gone when beaut?
bright
My heart's charm wove!
When my dream of life, from morn till
night,
Was love, still love!
New hope may bloom
And days may come
Of milder, calmer beam.
But there's nothing half so sweet In life
As love's young dream!
No. there's nothing half so sweet In life
As love's young dream."
As she let the last Urn's die away
and gave Cuvid a little caress and was
about to commence the next verse a
vivid flash of lightning pla.ved around
the room, followed almost immediate
ly by a crash of thunder.
Peg cowered down Into a deep chair.
All the laughter died from her face j
and the joy in her heart. She made ,
the sign of the cross, knelt dowiv and
prayed.
. Into the room through the window !
came a young man, ills coat collar turn- |
ed up. rain pouring from his hat. In
side his coat was a terrified looking
dog. The tu:in came well into the room,
turning down the collar of his coat and ,
shaking the moisture from his clothes
when he suddenly saw the kneeling
figure of Peg. lie looked down at her '
In surprise. She was intent on her 4
prayers.
"Hello!" cried the young man.
"Frightened, eh?"
Peg looked up and saw him staring
down at her with u smile on his lips.
Inside Ills coat was her precious little
dog. trembling with fear. The terrier
harked loudly when he saw his mis
tress. Peg sprang up and clutched Mi
chael awav from (he stranger just as
another blinding Cash played nrouud
the room, followed by a deafening re
port.
Peg ran across to the door, shout
ing: "Shut it out: Shut it out!" She
stood there trembling, covering her
eyes with one hand; with the other
she held on to the overjoyed Michael,
who was. whining with glee nt seeing
her again.
The amazed and amused young man
closed the windows and the curtains.
"Don't come near the dog. sir! Don't
come near it!" She opened a door and
found it led Into a little reception
room. She fastened Michael with a
piece of string to a chair in the room
and came back to look again at the
stranger, who had evidently rescued
her dog from the storm. He was a
tall, bronzed, athletic looking, broad
shouldered young man of about tweti
ty-sir. with a pleasant, genial, mag
netic manuer and a playful humot
lurking in his eyes.
As Peg looked him all over she found
that be was smiling down at ber.
"Does the dog belong to you?" he
queried.
"What were you doin' with him?"
she asked in reply.
"I found him barking at a very high
spirited mare."
"Mare?" cried Peg. "Where?"
"Tied to the stable door.''
"The stable door? Is that where
they pat Michael?" Once again the
lightning flushed vividly.
Peg shivered.
The stranger reassured her.
"Don't be frightened. It's only a
summer storm."
"Summer or wlnter t they shrivel me
up," gasped Peg. She looked at the
young man and said in an awestruck
voice:
"They say If ye look at the sky when
the lightnin' comes ye can see the king
dom of heaven. An' the sight of It
blinds some and kills others—accord!a'
to the state of grace ye're In."
"You're a Catholic?" said the stran
ger.
"What else would I be?" asked Peg
In surprise.
Again the llgbtniug lit the room. Peg
closed her eyes again aud shivered.
"Ijoesn't it seem he Is angry with
in for our sins?" she cried.
"With me perhaps—not with you,"
answered the stranger.
"What do ye mnne by that?" asked
Peg.
"You don't know what sin Is." re
plied the young man.
"An' who may you be to talk to me
like that?" demanded Peg
"My name is Jerry." be said.
"Jerry?"' And Peg looked at blm cu
riously.
"Yes. What is yours?"
"Peg!" And there was a sullen note
of fixed determination In her tone.
"Peg. eh?" And the stranger smiled.
She nodded and looked at him curi
ously. What a strange name he had—
Jerry! She had never heard such a
name before associated with such a
distinguished looking man.
"Jerry, did ye say?"
"Just plain Jerry." be answered
cheerfully. "And you're Peg."
She nodded agaffi, with a quick little
sin lie. "Just plain Peg."
"I don't agree with you," said the
young man. "I think you are very
charming."
After a pause he went on, "Who are
yon ?"
"I'm me aunt's niece," replied Peg,
looking at him furtively.
Jerry laughed again.
"And who is your aunt?"
"Mrs Chl-ster."
"Whom?"
Poor Peg tried again at the ibsurd
tongue tying name.
"I don't often cry," she said.
"My aunt is Mrs. Chi-sister."
"Mrs. Chichester?" asked .Terry In
inrprise.
"That's it." sr.ld Teg.
"How extraordinary!"'
"Isn't i'? Ye wouldn't expect a fine
lady like her to have a niece like me,
would ye?"
"That Isn't what I meant," corrected
Jerry.
"Yes. It is what ye meant. Don't
tell untruths with the storm ragin'
outside." replied Peg.
"I was thinking that I don't reinem
tier Alaric ever tcllinji me that he had
such a charming cousin."
"Oh, do you kuow Alaric?" asked
Peg, with a quick smile.
"Very well." answered Jerry.
Peg's smile developed into a long
laugh.
"And why that laugh?" queried
Jerry.
"I'd like me father to see Alaric. I'd
like him Just to see Alaric for one mln
nlt He's sieh a conceited person."
"I admire your delightful accent," re
plied Jerry.
"Accent is it?" And Peg looked at
him in astouishineut. "Sure, I've no
accent. I Just speak naturally. It's
you have the accent to my way of
thlnUin'."
"Really?" asked the amused Jerry.
Peg imitated the young man's well
bred, polished tone:
"Wah ye bnwn theah?"
Jerry laughed immoderately. Who
•was this extraordinary little person?
was the one thought that was in his
mind.
CHAPTER XIX.
Peg and Jerry.
PEG went haphazardly around the
room examining everything, sit
ting in various kinds of chairs,
on the sofa, smelling the flow
ers, and wherever she went Jerry fol
lowed .her at a little distance. /
"Are you going to stay here?"
"Mebbe I will and mebbe I won't"
"Did your aunt s»nd for you?"
"'No. me uncle—me Uncle Nat."
"Nathaniel Klngsnorth!" ctied Jerry
In amazement.
Peg nodded. »
