Carlisle Students’ Work.
The two publications from Carlisle, The Red Man and the A r r o w , are by far the best monthly and weekly, respectively, on our exchange list. The articles are all on interesting subjects and well written, while the many little cuts greatly improve the already neat appearance of the magazines. Another interesting feature of these publications is that all the printing is done by the students themselves. —Swarthmore Preparatory School Quarterly.
W// wHears From Country Students.
Mother Mary Paul has received many interesting letters from the students in the country. MaryGokee writes telling of her very happy country home, of her success at school and her pleasant time with her companions. She wishes to be remembered to the girls’ instruction class.

He writes, “ I will enclose my first message on the wire, last Wednesday, to give you a little idea of what I am doing.” Alberta Bartholomeau, in her letter, incloses a map of the school buildings, and gives a very interesting description of the Ghost Mountains and of the Indians’ belief in regard to them.

The features of the Y. M. C. A. meeting Sunday evening were the installation of the newly elected officers and the reading of the reports of the West Chester delegates. A fter the services there was a joint cabinet meeting.
Last Thursday evening Mr. Stauffer united his choruses and the result was very encouraging indeed. The singing can be heard very plainly from the Teachers’ Quarters and it gives much pleasure to the listeners.
Miss Yoos entertained the Sewing Club at its regular weekly meeting last Thursday evening. Nearly all the members were present, and enjoyed a very pleasant evening. Mr. Denny and Mr. Veith were the guests of the club. Everybody present voted Miss Yoos to be an excellent cake maker.
The Catholic meeting last Sunday evening was deeply religious in character and in keeping with the lenten season; it was opened by the singing of a hymn, which was followed by the saying of the rosary. John Farr read “ The Passion of our Lord,” and Francis Coleman read a story entitled, “ The Cherokee Chief.” The meeting was closed by the singing of another hymn.

Standards Give Senior Program.
Standard Hall, with its display of “ orange and black,” Navajo rugs and beautiful flowers, was a charming place in which to sit and listen to the program which the enthusiastic Standards had so carefully prepared to do honor to their guests—the Seniors.

INTERESTING DESCRIPTION OF THE BERMUDA ISLANDS.
By A Carlisle Ex-Student.
The Radnor, Crawl, Bermuda, February 11, 1911.
Just a few lines to tell you that I am happily settled here for a few months at least. We left New York February first and arrived at Hamilton, Bermuda,the following Friday. I was very seasick
I am delighted with this lovely country. When a person walks or drives over the vast country with its beauty scattered everywhere, he cannot help but wonder how it all happened. It is like fairyland, and everything is like a dream.
The islands are of coral formation, and when you see the lovely fields of white Easter lilies and roses and oleanders and narcissus which grow in huge fields, you wonder where they grow from. There does not seem to be any earth whatever. They seem to spring up out of nothing more than a mass of rocks.
The lovely red cedar trees cover the island, and groves of bananna trees are also abundant. The natives are mostly of African descent and there are representatives from every country. Many Americans are now buying tracts of land and building summer homes here. It is the most beautiful and most interesting place I have ever seen. I thought I was seeing something when I stayed a month in Colorado, but that country is nothing compared to this place.
We left Philadelphia in a snowstorm, and the day after our arrival here the thermometer registered 73 degrees. It is a joke to watch the people come in from New York with their heavy fur-lined coats when every one here is dressed in white. Every house is whitewashed and of the bungalow type, and it is certainly a beautiful sight to see the spots of white here and there among the very green trees, and the pale blue green, purple green, and every other shade of green ocean. We are located on the crest of a hill overlooking the ocean, and back of this lovely farm is the Harrington Sound. The widest part of the island is about two miles.
This place is a large farm about five miles from Hamilton. We have groves of bananna trees and huge
fields of strawberries ripe from February to October. We have also lemon trees with lemons growing on them. We have three track horses and a number of farm and carriage horses; a fine herd of cattle, poultry, and everything else a farm usually has. The ocean is separated from us by a stone wall, and we can watch the steamers come and go.
Remember me to all my schoolmates and tell them my wish is that they too may some day visit lovely Bermuda. Fannie Charley .

THE C O M IN G OF THE NEW YEAR.
A l v in K e n n e d y , Seneca.
A tradition which is still observed with solemnity among the Senecas, is the coming of the New Year.
This tradition, like all others, is handed down by the old people to the young from generation to generation.
Its full meaning is never fully understood in childhood, but as people grow old they understand more fully the significance of this observance, and take delight in trying to explain to the young the possibilities enveloped in the coming of the New Year.
On New Year’s Eve all children are admonished to remain in their homes, for they are told that to each will come a man who is seen only once during the year. He will come unheralded and no one knows which house he will first visit, so that it is necessary that all persons be in their homes on that night. As the time approaches for the arrival of the visitor, all the children are sent to bed and only the old folks remain to await his coming. When he comes, he walks into the home, quietly takes a seat and inquires minutely as to the past of the children. Should the parents be unable to give a complimentary report of any of the children, it will beseen that during the following year some misfortune will befall them. Should their past impress him favorably, he secretly wishes them a happy, prosperous New Year. Consequently, each year the Seneca children resolve to do better than they have ever done, so as to leave a good impression in the mind of this yearly visitor.
Spring is coming—the bluebirds and robins, are already here to herald its approach.
WHY THE TURKEY IS BALD.
N a n Sa u n o o k e , Cherokee.
The Indians of our country have many legends connected with certain peculiar habits or customs prevalent among them. If one should chance to visit the home of an old Indian he would perhaps notice a turkey wing hanging near the fire. This the Indian uses to fan his fire into a flame and make it burn brightly, or perhaps in the sultry days of summer, to fan himself. I f asked why he uses the turkey wing instead of the wing of some other bird, he would no doubt relate the following story.
Many years ago the fire o f the world was nearly extinguished; this happened just at the beginning of the winter season. The birds of the air were filled with anxiety for their intuition told them they would need heat to keep them warm through the winter.
A bird counsel was held and it was decided that the birds which could fiy highest should soar into the air and see if they could find a spark of fire anywhere. The efforts of the eagle, lark and raven were in vain. The honor was left to the little brown sparrow, who spied a spark of fire in the hollow of an old stump, in the heart of a deep forest.
The birds flocked around the stump and tried to decide who should pick the spark out. But all their efforts were in vain; to their dismay they saw the spark growing smaller and fainter. The turkey then volunteered to try and keep the tiny coal alive by fanning it with his wings. Day after day the turkey kept fanning; the heat became greater, each day, until the feathers were singed off the turkey’s head. If one notices carefully he will see lumps on the head of a turkey that appear as blisters. It is believed that the turkey was so badly burned that all turkeys since have had bald heads and wear the blisters as a memento of the bravery of the turkey. The faithful turkey lost his beautiful feathers but he gave back fire to the world; so in his honor and as a memorial of his faithfulness, the Indian uses the turkey wing to make his fire burn.
