Evidence of corn is found a short distance up op the bench land of the valley away from the alkali patches of soil. As a whole they were classed as as compared with the "hunters" of the Ute tribe, An almost infinite variety of seeds were used In their diet. Most of these were roasted, then pulverized with stone grinders, and finally cooked into thick mush. One of their favorite soups was made from pine nuts, cedar berries, sour sockets, and deer meat. Parched corn, red root seeds, mint, ground cherries, sun flower seeds, sego roots, mustard greens, wild potatoes (about the size of marbles), were all among their diet. Ants, grasshoppers, fish, sage hens, wild onions, various other root plants, and even pine tree bark, were common food to these clans. Early accounts Indicate that the Paiutes often failed to store sufficient food for some of the hard winters, and were often seen and almost naked digging through the snow for roots to exist on. It was during the Spring when they were in this weakened condition, that they literally became the hunted, instead of the hunter.

As the culmination of instruction on government workers, my fourth-grastudents and I toured the local Hall of Justice and attended a court session to observe the Judge at work. I hadn't seen Johnny since he was in my fourth grade until the police officer brought him into the courtroom. That was several years ago. He was still the same Johnny-tal- ler than average, good looking and blonde. He was in handcuffs. I was heartsick but not surprised. Johnny was always In trouble at school. It trailed him like a little black cloud over his head. He could not follow the rules or control his behavior. He already had a reputation as a "troublemaker" when he came to my room. He was what teachers call a "discipline problem." for discipline and Strategies punishment often confuse parents Psychologists tell us that punishment teaches a child that those who have powe. in force others to do their will and that American parents By NANETTE REYNOLDS heavily on it. Japanese parents, on the other hand, usually respond to misbehavior by asking the child to consider the effects of actions on others. Teaching discipline takes grcv I iience and requires years of apprer, ceship for the child. If your child has a prohlem, contact the school. Both you and the school staff want what's best for your child. Be positive. Ask how you can help. I talked with Johnny's parents many times that year he was in the fourth grade, but it didn't help. His father's response was usually to hit him harder and oftener. What Johnny needed was love, atand careful tention, guidance.

In turn the Indians received horses and such things as knives, blankets, beads, calico, guns, and other trin- kets. It seems unfortunate that these people were found in the 1850's in such a degenerate and fightened condition, because they were known to be peaceful and often Industrious. As the white man settled here, he hired the Indians for many odd jobs such as farm hand, woodcutter, sheep-herde- r, and the women proved fairly efficient in doing housework. Some straight eyes.

A possible explanation for this has been given by Garland H. Hurst, an Indian agent during the 1860's.

It's a treat everyone will appreciate Barbara Ma yer : tmMIWm 1 Here are some more unusual tews from the article by Robert W. Pelton In the AM ERIC AN JOURNAL OF NURSING. Some old legislation Is truly unusual: It's In Bastrop, Louisiana, that no nursing, home employee or hospital personnel may nap in a refrigerator during break periods. A local ordinance bans wrestling In any hospital hallway within the limits of Hookerton, North Carolina. In Washlsh, Minnesota, a local ordinance prohibits hospital personnel from hanging freshly laundered lingerie on clotheslines in any hospital or nursing home. Violators must pay a $10 fine. A nurse is forbidden to gargle In front of any patient in Parsons, West Virginia. And in Kelly, Kansas, no nurse may throw a shoe at a patient whose hair is In rollers. Here are a few more pieces of legislation that might interest you: In Louisville, Kentucky, no nurse may walk her cat within 500 feet of a hospital or nursing home. Needless to say, no cat is allowed In a hospital, not even on a leash. In Dime Box, Texas, and in Bristol, Tennessee, all hospital employees are banned from making stocking adjustments in any area of a hospital where they might be observed by patients. It's In Winchester, Massachusetts, that hospital and nursing home employees are prohibited by local ordinance from dipping snuff. Nor may they puff on cigars or pipes while on duty. But In Oatman, Arizona, a local law prohibits patients from offering any nurse a cigarette, nor may a patient smoke in the presence of medical personnel. A Toponas, Colorado, law forbids nurses and aides from yelling at patients to wake them from a sound sleep. And in Mount Michael, Nebraska, patients are prohibited by local ordinance from spitting at or sticking their tongue out at a nurse or hospital orderly. These are only a few of the odd situations covered by unusual ordinances in the United States. Most of these laws are long forgotten. In fact, officials In a number of communities were shocked when I pointed out that the particular law was still on their books. Of course, most of these laws, though on paper, are never enforced in any court of law. Samuel Johnson once said: "The law Is the last result of human wisdom acting upon human experience for the benefit of the public." Having seen some of the "laws" still In effect in this country, do you agree? Lucille Goff has been a generous supporter of hospital projects for many years-s- he makes and donates the baby size Christmas stockings that every December baby receives as a gift. She does all of the mending chores and has sewn the clothing Items that the have given the patients for Christmas the past two years-- ln addition she contributes many other items for the gift shop.
