Abstract
"This 'Franchise Day', as it might be called, can be utilized to give Indian youth in varied and graphic ways clear ideas of what the allotment law does for them, the opportunities which is offers, the privileges it confers, the safe guards it provides, and the duties and obligations which it imposes, and can be made an occasion to inspire them to the best manhood and womanhood of which they are capable."
