TEKAWENNAKE NEW CREDIT SIX NATIONS REPORTER September 17 - 24 Thirty-Eighth Edition SIX NATIONS NEWS The above design for Tekawennake is a simplified version of the Wampum Belt which symbolized the Treaty between the Six Nations and the Ojibways. A full explanation of this treaty and the historic Wampum Belt is given in the Historic Edition published in August. The name Teka wennake is a Mohawk word of five syllables meaning "two voices". The T is pronounced similar to "D", the third syllable is pronounced "wane". Can you say it now? Te-ka-wen-na-ke; accent on the third syllable. This paper is edited on the adjoining reserves of New Credit and Six Nations. Thus - two voices. Drama League on Reserve Here is a chance to realize your dream - how to become a movie actor or actress! Jay Silverheels did it!

NOTICE Applications are invited from Registered Nurses, residents of the Six Nations Indian Reserve for the position of Nurse-Administrator for a 40 bed Nursing Home at Ohsweken, Ontario. Preference will be given to those applicants with 3 years nursing experience in supervision and administration. Apply immediately to: Secretary Six Nations Board of Health Six Nations Council Sept. 13, 1968 Ohsweken, Ontario We hope that the Board of Health, if any authority is delegated to them to justify the existence of a board, that they will see to it that ALL personnel are residents of the Six Nations Reserve. Our native Reserve doctors were passed over for the hospital and now we see the result. No hospital! We'll learn! Ed. If the Brantford Expositor continues to "bug" us about "Indian giving" as in a recent editorial of its paper, we'll ask Brantford to give us back the 807 acres of land we "gave" them in 1830 for a buck and a quarter. May as well have the game as the name!
