Boone's adventures with the Indians
in his new home were Innumerable, in
1778 he was captured by the Shaw-
nees, who admired the scout’s courage
so much that lie was not put to death.
Instead Chief Black Fish adopted him,
giving him the name of Big Turtle—
rather an inappropriate title for a man
so active. Boc •• pretended to be well-
pleased with his captivity and after
several months the watchfulness of
the savages relaxed. Then he made
his escape.
Several years later this same band
ef Shawnees came to Boonesborough
to kidnap their former captive. They
found Boone in a little shanty used
for drying tobacco.
“Now Boone, we got you,” said the
Indians. “You no get away this time.”
“Yes, you have me but I am glad to
ge with you,” replied the scout, “but I
want my friends to have some of this
tobacco.”
He gathered up a number of the
dryest leaves and, unseen by the In-
dians, crushed them in his hands. Be-
fore they could move, he threw the
powdered tobacco into their eyes. As !
the blinded savages rolled on the floor I
howling and digging at their eyes, the
former “Big Turtle" showed unex- l
pected speed and was far up the trail
to the fort before they could pursue
him.
In his later years Boone was cheat-
ed out of the rich Kentucky lands he
had fought so hard to win and he mi-
grated to Missouri, becoming a hunter
once more. He died there in 1820 at
the age of elghty-six. A quarter of a
century later Kentucky paid him be-
lated honor by removing his body to
the capital of the state and today Dan-

in 1751, while General Lyman’a
army was encamped near Fort Edward,
N. Y., during the French and Indian
war, sentinels at one outpost began
to disappear mysteriously. Night after
night a soldier was posted there and
the next morning could not be found.
Only the bravest men in the army
were selected for this post. General
Lyman gave orders for them to call out
"Who goes there?" three times, if they
heard any noise, and then if no answer
came, to fire. But the di sappea rances
continued until his men were panic- 1
stricken and refused to take such a
dangerous station.
At last Israel Putnam, a member of
Major Rogers' rangers, volunteered to
go on guard at that place and solve
the mystery. One hot summer night
be heard a rustling in the leaves
near by. The sounds were those
of an animal scufling about on the
ground for food and, peering through
the darkness, Putnam saw by the faint
starlight a huge creature, which he
recognised as a bear, slowly sham-
bling toward him.
Something in the bear’s gait aroused
the scout's suspicion. Putnam obeyed
the general s orders. He challenged
three times and then tired. A loud
groaning and struggling noise followed
and when the scout rushed forward
he found the bear in its death agony.
Then he turned the animal over. En-
closed in the shaggy skin still clutch-
ing a tomahawk but stone dead, lay
a giant Indian.
The mystery was solved. The ether
sentinels had believed it was a real
bear they heard and allowed the dar-
ing warrior to get near enough to use
his tomahawk before they learned
their mistake. No more sentinels dis
appeared
Some time after this event, Putnam;
was captured by the Indiana, who j
started to burn him at the stake. Just
as the flames began to scorch his buck-
skin garments, a heavy rain began
to fall and put out the fire. The sav-
ages collected more dry wood and
again began the torture. But again
they were foiled.
A French oficer appeared upon the
acene, dashed through the ring of
flame, kicked the blazing brands right
and left and released the scout, telling
the Indians that he must send Putnam
to Montreal to be questioned by Gen-
eral Montcalm. Putnam waa held
in Canada until an exchange of prison- |
era allowed him to return to his home
and be lived to become a famous gen-
eral In the Revolution.

lachians into the unknown Kentucky
country, Boone visited the Blue Grass
state several times until h. finally de-
cided to make that country his home.
In 1775 he etsablished Boonesborough,
the first outpost of civilisation in the

tucky was called because it was a bat-

“Of course,” he continued,
“they are perfectly harmless,
these terrible women of ours.
They just think it is smart and
‘cute.’ ”
Smart and “cute!” How can
anyone see anything attractive
in a young girl’s aping the li-
cense and dissipation that were
always deplored as the vices of
men? Is there anything irrest-
ably charming about yellowed
fingers or a drinkladen breath?
And when these girls suggest to
men a “frolic” in the form of
a wild ride or any other way of
risking their reputation, do they
think those men are going to re-
spect them—or are they forget-
ting all about being respected in
their effort to be smart and
“cute?”
I turned to remark to Uncle
Henry that of course he was
grossly exaggerating, when along
came a girl just out of school—
she could not possibly have been
older than 20—and pouting her
lips. ‘Frank says I have cleaned
him out of cigarettes. You’ll give
me one won’t you Uncle Henry,
and you won’t lecture, me?”
Obviously she thought her pose
was cute. But to many other
people there it seemed a perver-
sion of sweet and lovely girlhood
and real womanhood.
In every age it is a woman
who has set the standard. What
can we expect of our boys if we
deprive them of their ideal of
womanhood if we do not continue
to give them a fine, sweet, high
standard to look and live up to?
Uncle Harry says the men are
now using the girls’ old argument
of what they would want their
sisters to be. Would any girl
wish for a time when a man’s
sister would no longer constitute
an ideal to him?
No, if there must be any re-
forming, I am old - fashioned
enough to want the girls to be the
ones to improve the men, to have
our women always set the high
standard the ideal, to he an ideal
to our men.— Ex.

But today. Why the boys are
playing the kind Samaritan and
trying to reform the girls.
“In the old days, when a fel-
low smoked a great deal, a girl
would lay her hand gently on his
arm and say, “Don’t you think
that is enough for tonight?—you
know it doesn’t do you any
good.” But today? Why a man
has all he can do to keep up with
the girls’ demands on his cigar-
ette case.
“In the old days when a fek
low took a girl out, he would
not dare say anything hut “Make
it two on her order for lemon-
ade.” Today the merest flapper
cries for ‘something with a kick!’
“In the old days .when a fel-
low got frisky and suggested
something wild a girl would re-
mind him of his sister—would
he want her to do a thing like
that! Today? It is the girls
who have the wild ideas and it
is left to the young Sir Galahad
to decline on the ground that he
would not like to see his sister
in such a condition.
