Young Oliver La Farge, who wrote "Laughing Boy," is now in Guatemala, the country which baa the parrot on its stamps. Mr. La Farge, on an expedition backed by Columbia university, is living in a wild little Indian village, studying the ancient ceremonials. He believes he is far enough away from civilization so that the Indian customs are still In their native state, uncolored by contact with the white man.

Since the ptpe and tomahawk chiefs have disappeared from^n front of tobacco stores, about the only Indians we have in New York are members of the Tammany wigwam. The original Tammany was an ancient and noted Delaware chief, and his name meant "The Affable." The first Tammany society was organized in Philadelphia in 1736. In 1786 Tammany was organized tn New York as a national organization, with thirteen branches, by William Moouey. a veteran of the Revolution.

All except the New York branch passed out ,of existence, and the Delaware branch, in passing, apparently bequeathed New York its emblem, which was the tiger. The New York branch seems to have decided that charity begins at home, and turned its hand to politics. The original Tammany was so good a man that he was supposed to associate with spirits. According to Judge Seabury, some of bis namesakes still do. » • • It was about two o'clock In the morning when the prominent clubman, with his silk hat perched at a rakish angle, made his entrance.

In each instance it will be found that we won that independence through the loyalty and bravery of the young ljnen of the United States, young men who now lie buried in graves all over the country, young men who remembered us when they went to fight for our safety and happiness, young men who we in turn remember on Memorial Day* It is a little thing to do to bring flowers to some soldier's grave, a little thing for him, who did such a big thing in giving his life to his country.
