December 5, 1925 WINNETKA TALK 17 TELLS INDIAN POLICY Flora Warren Seymour, United States Indian Commissioner, to Address Woman's Club Meeting "In our Indian policy, are we senti- mentalists or conscientious students of the Indian question?" is a question asked by Flora Warren Seymour, United States Indian commissioner, who says in her article published in the Outlook of November 18, "We love to look with the poets or ar- tists at the beautiful vanished past wreathed in romance; we shrink from confronting actual facts and from doing the hard, everyday, and practical work of getting things right and keeping them so. We may echo the cry 'Let the Indian go,' but not one in a thousand of us will trouble to find out for himself where the indian stands now, where he is destined to go, or what are the forces that are leading or pushing him in that di- rection." The Woman's Club of Wilmette has been very fortunate is securing Mrs. Seymour as a speaker on the morning of Wednesday, December 16, at 11 o'clock. She will give her hearers a few pages from her very rich ex- perience. Prior to her marriage, Mrs. Seymour was a practising attorney in the Indian service. She served both in the Southwest among the Indian tribes and later in the Indian bureau at Washington. During the three years since she was appointed Indian com- missioner, she has visited twenty-five different jurisdictions. Mrs. Seymour not only knows her facts, but possesses a very vivid and impressive manner in presenting them. She is a member of The Society of Midland Authors and The Writers' Guild. Her latest book, "The Indian Today" is soon to be published by Sanborn and company. Scott Henry Peters, full blooded Chippewa Indian, president of the Grand Council Fire American Indian, has promised to be present and speak briefly on the purpose of the Grand Council Fire. Mr. Peters gives the story of his life in the November issue of the Club Woman's World in an ar- ticle entitled "The Development of One First American." The meeting is open to all who are interested in the Indian question whether they are club members or not. Watch Your Eyes Many women, by r.eglect or im- roper care, allow their EYES to come lusterless, dull and unat- tractive. EYES cleansed daily with Murine should assume new lights and loveliness. This harmless, time- tested lotion is most refreshing and beneficial.

The committee has pre- pared a musical program which will be given in the auditorium of the St. Francis Xavier school, with Mrs. Frank Oelerich and Mrs. Edward Kelley the hostesses. The philanthropy depart- ment is planning a children's party, the date of which will be announced later. An interesting afternoon of music and literature was provided on Junior Membership day, Friday, November 7, when Mrs. Charles Broad read sev- eral of Edgar Guest's verses and Mrs. Frank Rothing sang the following group of songs, "My Love Is a Mule- teer" by Francisco DiNogers; "Mighty Lak' a Rose" by Nevin, and "Through Love to Light" by A. F. Ashford. She was accompanied at the piano by Mrs. M. B. Morris, Mrs. James Byrnes. Mrs. B. W. Lynch, and Mrs. J. J. Tracy were the hostesses for the afternoon. --N/) Here's Comfort for You! THE COMFORT of even temperature in every room of the house, even though the mercury toys with the zero mark and blustery winds howl without. That's the comfort the HARDINGE Oil Burner brings to you, without the muss, fuss and expense of less efficient heating methods. Set your thermostatic control to the desired degree of heat--the Hardinge does the rest. Leave the children in the house alone--there is no dan- ger. Or close the house entire- ly while you're away for days and leave the Hardinge on guard. Cozy warmth will wel- come your return. The new model Hardinge for homes is surprisingly econom- ical to own.
