INDIAN SMOKE SIGNALS ON RELIGION

The Redman’s religion is not a matter of certain days and set observances, but is a part of his every thought and daily life. Many years ago a missionary severely rebuked an Indian for driving his team on a Sunday.  The Indian looked puzzled, as he was merely minding his own business and caring for his family.  The missionary reiterated that this was the Lord’s Day. At last a light dawned on the Indian. He glanced up with a gleam in his eye and answered, “Oh, I see, Your God comes only one day a week; my God is with me every day and all the time.”
