At a meeting of the Session and Trustees held at the Manse, Mon day evening; November 30th, a The Red Skin Now A Voter New Law Makes the Indian a Citizen Albany, Dec. 2—Welcome, thrice welcome, the Red Skin to the political pow-wows, for now more than 4,600 are citizens of the Empire State through an act of Congress effective June 2, 1924, which declares that all non- citizen Indians born within the territorial limits of the United States shall be declared citizens of the United States. The 1925 New York state cen sus in its tabulation has revealed no less than 4,600 Indians resid ing on the seven reservations in this state. Just how many have reached the age entitling them to cast their vote and have a say Christmas Carols Add To Cheer motion was passed calling a meet ing of the Presbyterian church of Williamson incorporated, Dee. 17, 1925 at 7.30 P. M., to consider the following recommendation (adopted by the combined Boards) that we as a church par ticipate in the New Pension Plan of the Presbyterian church, U. S. A. Preceeding this meeting at 6:30 P. M. there will be held our picnic supper, which has been regularly held during the month of Novem ber At the close of the Prayer service,there will be a meeting of the officers and different com- During the past few years there has been a growing and laudable disposition to have carols sung on Christinas Eve. The practice was started while the war was in progress, but even be fore that there seemed to be a desire of people to get' together and sing the melodies on the night before Christmas. In some sections the idea had been carried out, but this was not general in New York state until recently, at least. At any rate, it would be difficult to think of anything more inspiring than to hear the tunes on the midnight air. Before we know it Christmas will bo here, and if ours is among localities where the carols are not sung we will hardly be permitted to say that it was a forgotten in tention. The carols are tuneful and easy to learn and a mere sug gestion should mean any number of volunteers glad to join a chor us to sing the songs on the night preceding the great feast. In some of the larger cities last year the carols were sung and Christmas was brightened for high, low, rich and poor, one with another, and in a way only pos sible by singing the beautiful anthems. Now is the time to get ready to distribute Christmas cheer that can only be distributed by singing the carols. As a matter of fact, it is true that it would be impossible to think of any more attractive manner of ushering in Christmas than by this method. All that is required to carry out the program is for some one to make the suggestion and the rest will take care of itself, as few would hestitate to swell the choirs with heart and voice on the night of nights. v\ political councils has not yet I eon shown by the tabulation The greater number are on the Cattaraugus reservation, while other reservations in various parts of the state have an Indian population ranging from less than two hundred, as in the case of the Shinnccocks, to nearly a thousand. There was a saying, but that their rights to citizenship, and as their forefathers engaged in the pow-wows in the tepee or in the cabin, or as they smoked the pipe of peace around many a council (ire, the twentieth century's sons and daughters of the first Amer loans should take advantage of that which has been offered them through congressional action The final report of the 1925 census is but a few weeks dis- BOARD ON FRIDAY EVENING FIRST ANNUAL MEETING 0F« v. as a long, long time ago, that the only good Indian was a dead tant.

Be a friend not only in thought but in deed. What does it benefit others if you have a kindly impulse but do not show it? Each day as you come in con tact with the people about you, show your interest in them. Learn to understand the moods of your friends. If they seem to be troubl ed, find the reason. It often hap pens that events are taking place in their lives of which we know nothing until long after they are completed. Then we realize how we fould have helped had we on ly .tried to understand. The phrase \living my own life\ is often used to cover a ruthless and devouring selfishness. Do not live for yourself alone, but try to make life happier for those about you; ease their bur dens in every way possible, and by so doing you will not only in crease the joy of living for others but will enrich your own life.

Last year North Rose won the championship of Class B in the league. Their team seems equally as good as i t was last year. There fore, Williamson seems to have an opportunity to make a good record this year. Williamson played a good de fensive game but was weak in foul shooting. Guy Hance, center, made three field goals and Clinton -Vance, guard, one. Perkins, for ward, scored a neat goal from a difficult position under the bns- kec. Verllow's skill in breaking up many of the opponents pla>s was well shown. LeRoy played his us ual steady back-guard game THINGS THE FACULTY— would like to have amended in this school of Williamson, N. Y.: A number of weak chairs here about, mended. The girls' attention distracted from the new scholar so lately ar rived—meoning the minister's son of course. That Dick Burcroff arrive at school on time. Luther Warner leave his engag ing business and attend to school work. Floyd Verbridge stop flirting with the girls. Graden Hodges arrive in Eng lish class a bit sooner. The boys' attention drawn from Marian—another new arrival, for it's becoming very difficult to study now-a-days. And it's most probable that Miss Anderson would fear that we were all in a very weak con dition {as the chairs) if the his tory class should show any signs of silence for a few minutes.
