I Petun Indians Found What is considered one of the most in- teresting and reinarkablediscuveries made in connection with the early Indian races of Ontario h:iK just been announced by the archaeological department of the province and has attriictpd attention all over the country. Briefly, it is that there has been found in tJklahoma, under the protection of the United States government, what is be- lieved to be the last remnant of the fam- ous Petun, or Tobacco nation, which once roamed the whole country and today forms the prosperous counties of western Ontario. The disappearance uf this tribe lias al- ways been one of the great mysteries in connect ion with the early history in the countiy. It is believed the Petuna were real y the oldest tribe of Indians in Can- ada and that from them spirang the Hii- rons, the Algonquios and those othsr great tribes which are famous in the history. By 161G, when Champlain visited them they were settled in the conntry that now forma Grey county and the Bruce peninsula. They had brought their to- bacco with them and raised it despite the comparatively short euaimer in that hiiithern part of the province. When the Iroquois made their great raids in the middle of the seventeenth century, the Petuns knew their doom was sealed, and they then began a wan- dering that lasted for fifty years and that reduced them to a shadow uf their former greatness. Joined by a remnant of Hurons they tirst went to Mackinac. 9ro\\\ there they were driven by the Iroquois to Green Bay, Wis., where the Jesuit missionaries gave them shelter at the mission of St. Michael. Fronri there they went to the litids around Lake Pepin, intruding on the Sioux hunting grounds and beini; again forced to tiod shelter at Chegoimc- gan, Wii. Ill time they returned to Mackinac ai.d a band of them sailed to Manitonlm !>• land, rejoining in a few months the Mackiniic party. Leaving Mackinac they descended to Detroit, being broken into scattered bandi at Sandwich, Niagara and other p'aces. Finally the trilte as a body settled at Sandusky, from which pUce titey were removed by the United States goveromerl to the Kan.sas Heser- vation and finally to ttie Indian Territory now the 8tit« of Oklah'ima. There, with the reinuan's of other tribes, they have apparently found a last re<ting place. It must not be thought 'that all these w n Ipi ings were kno» n as they occurred. T.ic tracing out of the peregrinations of this once piweiful body of Indians has occupied ihi time of many investigatora who, patching their discoveries together, have tinnlly CO npletod il.e chain of the tube's wanderings. In this work prob- ably the leading spirit has been the Rev. Arthur Junes, the archivist of the Jesuits of Montreal, wiioao life has been devotid to delving in the dark past uf Canadian histoi-y and wl.o e c<>ii:ributions to the record of these early limes have been of the most valuable character. What is perhaps on ) of the most in- teresting details which have been brought to light by the Bev. Mr. Jo: e-s in con- nection with the Petun tribe is 'that it is uf South American origin. The worJ Petun is uf Tepi urigin and is found in practically all the d all cts of the native tribes of Braiiil. The woid, nicaiiing to- bacco, was retained thiou^h all the wan- derings of the tribe that tinully trouuht it to the shores of Georgian Bay, thous- »id.s of miles distant. They not only brought the name with them but the plant as well. Among the Petuns, as among the other Huron-Iroquois ti lu-i, tobacc i had a sRcred character aii'l was tued in all thei ceremonial rites and in the opening treat- ies among theinselvies or with other iiHi i iiiF. It was also smoked by them in c curing of various diseases; it, was smoked to propitiatt- the Maiii'.oui and was also used to ward oil bad luck or in \ \\v good luck. The plant when gith re 1 by ihu I'etuiis fur home consumption was cirefully dried, was then brekon in- to siiia'l pieces or pulverized and w«s pie- aervcd in doer skin pouches. ^It is the intention of the Outarici gov- enimeir to send an inviatigator to Oklu- lioiiiH, who will lenrii nil he can from the survivors of the tritie as lo their language their fulls lure and whatever may have been preserved in tradition as to their origin and histoiy. How To Make a Ford There was an old roan wh>i had a wni den log; He had no money, and ho juit couldn't ht'ir; But he hart it p'ece of pipe and a 12 inch board And he raid, 'By ;t'illy, I'll build ine « Ford." So he took a gall <n of gis and a sprinkle of oil And a piece of rusty wire to make him a coil; Four big spools and an old tin can . He hammered thum tojeiher and the blamed thing ran. H.
