CORRECTION
In the Carolina • Indian

December 4, 1986, I made an
error in my write up. I wrote

have read Miss Hardin would

First Thanksgiving
Since watching the movie
“Mayflower” last week, I
keep getting a vivid mental
image of my first Thanksgiv
ing here in 1956. Members of
the college W.F. and
B.S.U.-and the Walter Rnch-
beck family-gave an impres
sive dramatic portrayal of the
very first Thanksgiving in
New England.
This was a new experience
for me-the first time I had
seen Indian students play the
part of whites. When I was
growing up, it was the other
way around.
According to the movie
“Mayflower,” as the ship
sailed across the Atlantic,
Miles Standish was busy
showing the Pilgrims how to
use a musket.
John Alden asked him, ‘ ‘ Do
you expect the savages to be
hostile?”
Miles Standish replied,
“Why shouldn’t they? It’s
their land. They didn’t invite
us!’’
Some interesting
ins^hts-it seemed to me.
Most white people in this
country just assume that this
has always been their land.
This is what’I did for a long
time.

For men: Lower cancer risks
If you're one of the 52 percent of men over 50 not
having had a rectal examination within the last
year, then it’s important to do so. Prostate cancer
is the second most commonly occuring cancer in
men, and the third largest killer. Yet, like breast
cancer in women, it is highly treatable if caught in
time.
Women have mobile "Mammobilcs" screening for
breast cancer. Perhaps it's time for men to have
roving "Machobiles" to screen for prostate,
testicle. anH k-olon cancers.

.while seiuers tended to Lliink
of the natives of this newly
discovered land as being
“savage”-even before they
had a chance to find out what
th^y were really like.
I'll have to confess that I'
know this feeling, too. As a
little girl I spent five years in
a small Montana town 40
mOes from an Indian reserva
tion. I never had any first
hand contact with the people
whose ancestors were placed
there in the 1800s. Although
no one told me this in so many
words, I grew up believing
that Indians (along with the
Mexican and Filippino “sugar
beet workers’ ’) were not quite
civilized human beings. For
years I was full of fear!
But I was fortunate. Before
too long the God who created
all of us began opening doors
to a variety of new
experiences for me. Then,
finally, in 1950 and 1951, I
spent a year and a half as a
church worker living on the
Blackfeet Reservation in nor
thern Montana among the
Indians there.
My co-worker, apartment-
mate, and closest friend was
Bernice Jackson. She was a
beautiful, intelligent, part
Mohawk Christian, a first
grade teacher from Newport,
Rhode Island.
Before I left the reservation
to take special church work
training in Nashville, Tenn.
my fear of Indians had
changed to a deep concern for
them as persons. I became
convinced that Indians and
whites are equal in every way
except opportunity--in the
very land which was once
theirs!
My children were far more
fortunate than L Iheir heri
tage included both back
grounds. In fact, you could
say that they were descen
dants of the two groups who
gave us our national
Thanksgiving holiday.
Though not from the same
tribe or nation as those “first
Thanksgiving” Indians, Leon
and his family were of Indian
ancestry. And-according to
records at Plymouth Bock
(which Mother’s brother, my
Uncle Del. studies while
living in Massachusettsl-my
grandfather, Hany Bedfield,
was a descendant of the
Redfyn family, who were
direct descendants of John
and Priscilla Alden. (Uncle
Del even named his daughter
Priscilla.)
I always wanted my chil
dren to take pride in both
sides of their famUy tree. And
Fm thankful my daughter still
does!
Afr. Cad Stubbs,
My FormeT Neighbor
On Sunday afternoon I
attended the funeral service
for Carl Stubbs. For my first
two years in Pembroke he and
his wife were my next door
neighbors. At that time I had
an apartment in his mother’s
apartment house, next to the
railroad track.
During the service Mr.
Earlie Maynor, a friend from
boyhood days, and Rev. Jim
Oliver, pastor of Calvary and
First Methodist churches,
both expressed appreciation
for having known Carl.
As I left the family at
Meadowbrook Cemetery and
walked to my car, I noticed
the sky. All the way back to
Pembroke I was assured of
God's presence in the midst of
our problems-as I watched a
lovely, unique, gently
