I The Micmacs In Early Times

Excerpts from A work by Nlch- ' olas Denys. first Governor of Aca- in 1872

dlA. published in France and translated by Dr. William F Ganong for the Champlain so-

ciety. Continued from last Tuesday.

As for the hunting of the Beav- ers. it also was done in winter with Dogs. but they were only used

to find the houses in which they

smelled the Beavers through the ice. Having found them, the In- dians cut through the ice and made a hole lag-ge-enough to let through a Beaver. Then they made another hole twenty-five or thiriv paces away. on the open surface of the lake. In this place an In- dian or two took their stand with a bow and an arrow which has H Larpoon of bone at the end. make like a. harbecl rod. like that which was used in fishing the Sturgeon. but smaller. It has also a cord to which it is attached at one end. and the Indian took hold of the other.

Everything being ready. another Indian went to the other hole near the house of the Beavers. Lying: down on his belly upon the ice. he placed his arm through the hole to find the Beavrr.s' opening. that by which they place their toll in the water. There they are all ar- ranged one against the other. that is to say. all those of one Beaver family. Having found them. the Indian passed his hand very gent- )y along the back of one several times. and. Hllproaclllltg little by little to the tail. tr.c:i to seize it.

0 O O

I have heard it said by the In- dians that they have kept the arm so long in the water that the ice froze all around the arm. When they once seized the tail they drew the Beaver all at one swoop out from the water upon the ice. and at the same time gave it the axe upon the head. They killed it for fear lest the Beaver bite them. for wherever these set their teeth they take out the piece.

Having thus drawn one out they tried to obtain another. which they did in the same way, rubbing them gently. That does not put them to flight. for they imagine they are touching one another. But never- theless three or four of them hav- ing been removed. the remainder take to flight and throw them- selves into the water. Not beinz able to remain long without lhreathing. the daylight which shows over the hole out on the sur- face leads them to. go there to get

the air.

The other Indians who are there In Ambush, so long As they appear, give them an arrow shot; the har- paon. which has teeth. holds in from

some part. of the Beaver which it cannot be drawn out

The cord is then pulled and the Beaver is drawn out through the hole; then they raise it upon the time after which is

The doctor was puzzled. "You Ought to be pretty well by now," he said. "Have you carried out my instructions'.”'

”W0ll. doctor." said the patient. "I've done most of them. but i can't take the two-mile walk every morning that you ordered. I get too dizzy."

taken in .the same Way. Few in a house are saved: they take all.

The dlsllosition of the Indians is not to spare the little ones any more than the big ones. They kill- ed all of each kind of animal that there was when they could capture it It is well to remark here that they were more fond of the young than of the grown at various spe- cies of animals. whatever these might be. to such a degree that often when they were chasing two Elks, male and female. they quit. ted the male if they perceived that the female was pregnant, in order to obtain the young ones. for ordinarily they carry two. and it is for them a. great dainty.

As to the Bears. if they killed them in winter. it was necessary tr.at they should happen upon them when hunting. Coming upon some large trees they looked to see whether there came out any breath in the form of vapour from with- in. If they saw any it was a sign that the Bear was there. They mounted upon the tree and killed the Bear with their spears; then they drew it out.

In the spring they met them in the woods, when they followed their track. Or they killed them sometimes upon an Oak where they were eating acorns. Then a shot of an arrow stralghtway brought it to the ground. and S) soon as it was down they slave it another arrow, and then they kill- ed it with blows from axes.

If they meet it upon the ground. and they draw upon it. according to whether the Bear is hurt or not, it flees or comes to the man. who has immediately another ar- row ready. If he does not bring it down. the Bear embraces him. and will very soon have tom him to pieces with its claws. But the Indian to escape this throws him-

Making a garden is A happy adventure lasting a lifetime; with greater knowledge every year comes greater delights. so thnt. in time, the garden on has created become one'A whole world. A world enclosed. A haven where outside influences can not annoy.

What would it profit one to cultivate a garden if one were not constantly reminded thereby to cultivate oneself, and were not aided by the one in the doing of the others. Partnership with via- one to be con- to trust And hope. to have implicit faith in the capacity of time to work wonders. to put up with disappointment: and dlsllluslons, and after repeat- ed failures, cheerfully to try again. Chrysanthemums are plantl

of ancient lineage, with an origin far in the distant past. Its auth- entic history. however. can be

definitely traced back to the Con- fucian era. In 550 B.C. Con- fucius was the official "keeper of the herds and lands" and he writes of the Chrysanthemum in one of his books as he was the most famous Chinese scholar and philosopher.

Seeds were sent to Korea after a few hundred years and from then on Japan played an import- ant part in the development uf chrysnnthemums and it was adopted as Japan's national flow- er.

Married In

St. Anthony's Church. Montreal. was the scene of 1 very pretty wedding on Saturday September 22nd. when Mary Lillian, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Dominic Doyle, Montreal. was united in marriage to Alfred Aubertin. son of Mr. Joseph Aubertin and the late Mrs. Aubertin of Winnipeg. Manitoba. The ceremony was performed by Rev. Edward Baldwin, C.ssR. Baskets and standards" of autumn tinted gladloli made an attractive setting for the cere- mony. witnessed by a large num- ber of relatives and close friends or the contracting parties.

Given in marriage by her father. the bride was attended by her sister, Mildred Doyle as brides- maid. while her brother. Leo Doyle was best man. She looked charming in a gown of white satin. her fingertip veil being held in place by a. circlet of flowers. She carried A bouquet of red roses. The bridesmaid chose a gown of light blue crepe with fingertip

veil and matching accessories. and

If it does not smell the breath. it places in bottom on the man's belly. crushes him As much as it can, and at the same time replaces its nose upon the mouth.

If it does not then gmell the breath. and the man does not move. it leaves him there and goes fifteen or twenty paces away. Then it sits down on its haunches and watches if the man does not move. If the man remains some time im- movable. it goes away. But if it sees him move. it returns to'the man. presses him once more upon the belly for a long time. then re- turns to smell at his mouth. If it perceives that the man breathes. it will press him like that until it believes it has suffocated him. if in the meantime its wounds do not bring it down. To guard against this. it is necessary to take good care neither to breathe nor to move until it is far off. They do not do any other harm. When one has Dogs one is guaranteed against all this.

Most elderly people, though they may have dreamt of a sec- ure and leisurely old age. will feel that they have no place in the world unless they are usefully and gainfully employed.” Boredom. break in their daily routine and living habits, loss of social con- tacts and the notion of being un- wanted may completely upset the feeling ot security they may have. .

I have written befor of the workman for a fuel firm in n large city. The day he completed fifty year.s' service for the firm, he was called into the office and the manager said, "Bill. you have just completed fifty years' service and we are presenting you with a gold watch suitably engraved. in check for 5500. and. beginning tomor- row. your wages will be paid you as usual but you need not report for work." Hill said he would take the watch and the check but he would be at work the next morn- int: as usual. He knew that to be told he was not needed and to not be able to work with his assoc- iates in the yard would mean loss of morale and general discontent.

Men and women of every age are becoming more conscious of the fact; that these are days of mounting tension. that we all seem to be on our toes all the time. that if life is to be happy and fruitful this can only be accom- plished by making ourselves use- ful. whether gainfully or not. and becoming in. part of our commun- iy.

Unstable Girl

Vacillation Between Suifors ' Shows A Lack Of Character

DEAR MISS DIX: Whatrcan I do to win my girl friend back?

I went with her for a year and A half, then A friend of mine told her stories about me that weren't true. She bra c off with me, mg began to go with him. Last week I met her an we talked for quite a while. She told me why she had stopped going with me, am; 1 convinced her of the falsity of the tales. She says she love: me, not ' the other boy, but since she is still going with him, she doesn't want to hurt him. He is now over.

seas, and she promised to wait for him. She is very mixed up. and so am, I. What can we do? ROY

ANSWER: Apparently the more in love one 1, the more gullible one becomes. Love sharpens gm; blade of,susplclon. leaving the lover open to any suggestions of infidelity on the port of the hp. loved. Of course, the purveyor of disrupting tales is always . "wry good and trustworthy" friend, with no desire but to ace justice done The fact that he-or she-is always very handy to offer consolation to the broken heart could be mere coincidence!

DOES SHE LOVE YOU?

Since your girl friend. Roy. had so little faith in you that gm. didn't even give you a chance to explain your side of the story mm; a year and a half later. perhaps she was not as much in love 5. you were led to believe. She wasted no time pickiiig your successor and her present hcsilnncy in making up her mind between xIWO suit: ors cxhibitsa luck of stability that you will do well to consider. Even though you may think you love her a lot now. you don't want to stay on a merry-go-round forever. Instead of trying to win her back. why not concentrate on ti new girl with more character?

, u DEAR MISS DIX: I met a wonderful boy two months ago and like him very much. About a month ago he asked me to be his new girl friend and I accepted. He tells me he loves me. but here i)5' my problem. He never asks me for ii date. He just says. "I'll be OW? lomofrow night." He doesn't say what time he'll come or any. thing. I'd like to know what time I have a date. What can I do

to make him understand a girl likes to have things definite?" JEANE

ANSWER: Your boy fria-nd”s fault seems to he that he lack: social graces. He probably hasn't gone out with girls much-if at all -and Just doesn't realize what they expect. This is where you mug be a very tactful guide. When he says he'll be over the next ni hxt just say Casually. "When may I expect you?"
