To Serve American Indians.

On September 22 Miss Florence L. Buckner, of
Dublin, Pa., was commissioned as parish worker at
the Rocky Boy Mission of the United Lutheran
Church on the Rocky Boy Indian Reservation in
Montana. The commissioning services took place in
her home church at Tinicum, Pa.

. Miss Buckner is succeeding Miss J. Brookover at

_ the Rocky Boy Mission, whose resignation becomes

effective October 1. An interesting, well-rounded
program of activities will be in her charge. These
activities include supervision of all Sunday-school
work, of daily meetings of the Girl Scouts and Boy
Scouts and of the “products class,” which is an all-
inclusive term for the traditional handcrafts of the
American Indians, in which the children and adults
show great cleverness and skill. These crafts at the

"Rocky Boy Mission include, among other things, the

baskets, produced so skilfully that the output is un-
able to meet the ever-increasing demand.

Miss Buckner will also be in charge of the or-
ganization of women’s work and periodic parish-
visiting. — NV. L. C. News Bulletin.
