and made a very winding trail. W'e
crossed fields, tore down fences
followed for a short distance along
the river. The ice floating on it,
the brownish red trees and bushes
along the river's edge and the
snowy, hilly background made a
beautiful picture. Crow said very
little, and most of his conversation
was 'no good road.' I got along

lliae Engelhart has twenty-five
pupils in her room the primary
and first and second grades
whose ages run from 6 to 14. This
great variety of ages, she explains,
is true because the Grovan tribe
was the last to settle down to civ
ilization, and is only now begin-
ning to accept the white tcan'fc , VT flowers and placed them on top
customs. Another problem unique of the grave. When this was fin

School in Shell Creek takes up
at 9:30, and closes at 4:30. but the
Indian people are so tardy in their

when the day is cloudy they may

time be estimated from the
sky. Those Indians who do own
clocks send them to the school to
be set.
"One day a grandmother brought
her grandchild to school," Miss
Engelhart relates. "She stayed
in the schoolroom all day. Many
times while I was talking to the
pupils she would speak in Indian
or Grovan. I coundn't understand
and I felt she was being rude.
Afterward I discovered that she
was telling the children why Mar
gie, her grandchild, was late. It
is impolite for one Indian to speak
English to anoher even when a
white person is present.
Wash Children.
"Parents do not get up when
the ihildren do. The child gets
up by himself, dresses or most
likely he has kept his clothes on
over night, finds whatever he can
to eat and comes to school. Many
times he comes dirty and hungry.
The school remedies this. Wash
basins, combs, brushes, paper tow
els, and tooth brushes are all a
part of the school equipment."
The parents of Johnny or Ray
mond never know where the child
is. Miss Engelhart says. Some
time the Indian lad sleeps at home
and at other times he stays with
friends or relatives. He never is
refused a night's lodging, no mat
ter how crowded the home. Most
of the Indian families live in log
houses, only a few of them own
ing frame living quarters. Miss
Engelhart found a ready welcome
in the homes of her pupils' parents,
but because these people had had
such limited experiences, she found
conversation making difficult
Two churches are located in the
community, and one of them had
a Christmas tree and service dur
ing the holidays. Gifts were dis
tributed, and a big feast was pre
pared. A missionary preached
with the text, "It is more blessed
to give than to receive." Such a
sermon they do rot need. Miss
Engelhart believes, for should an
old Indian woman be asked for the
blanket which she wears, she gives
it, even tho she may have to go
home in the cold. At basket so
cials, Indian dances and even fu
nerals, many gitts 8re gin

Telli of Funeral. j
"I attended the funeral of a Hi

wTites in a letter. "II is customary
for the family to dress the dying
person for burial several days be
fore he actually dies. A short ser

After that everyone marched to
the cemetery where we waited and
watched the mourners cover the

On Thanksgiving and New-
Year's day big Indian dances were
held. Miss Engelhart recalls. Tak
inc treat pride in them, the In
dians feel that they must be very
clean. They bathe in bath houses
constructed of willow sticks
stretched and bent over and cov
ered with skin or canvas. Hot
stones are placed in the bath
house. The dancers take this
sweat bath, then run out of the
house, and roll in the snow. Inter
esting costumes make up their
dance wardrobe. Beadwork covers
mocassins and big cuffs. Elk
teeth and beads are draped about
the front of suits. Beaded clouts
are worn over tight underwear.
Often-times bells are fastened on
top of the mocassins or down the
trouser legs. Queer as they may
seem, their color combinations are
quite beautiful as the Indians as
semble them.
"Each tribe wears different
types of bonnets." Miss Engelhart
writes, "and the bonnet character
istic of Shell Creek community is
made of deer fur. The dances are
very spectacular and beautiful.
Men dance to the beat of the tom
tom; some do hoop dances; while
the women dance what is called
a rabbit dance. They form in two's
and go one step forward and a half
step backward. A quartet with
small tom-toms furnishes the
music.
"The women wear black dresses
beaded with elk teeth. A red scarf
is thrown over their necks. Should
an Indian woman ask a man to
dance with her he must never re
fuse. I think I could sit all night
and watch the Indians dance," the
teacher said. "The beating of the
New Year tom-toms still rings in
my ears."
Use of Land Becomes
Important to ation
By George Wehrwein,
College of Agriculture,
University of Wisconsin.
"We have come a long way
in half a century, from ex
ploitation to conservation
which often was mere con
versation to policies and
programs which are coming
to grip with realities. Fifty
years ago it was impossible
to create public forests by re
serving the public domain;
today we are planning to
spend $50,000,000 to buy sub
marginal farm land. Twenty
years ago, Charles R. Van
Hise said, 'As rapidly as a
sentiment can be developed
for their enforcement, laws
should be passed which will
prevent the neglect of the
land. The precautions neces
sary to prevent excessive ero
sion may be enforced by law.
since they vitally concern the
common welfare not only of
this but of all succeeding
generations.' At that time
few people were willing to go
as far as that, but today sen
timent it rapidly developed
for a policy of encourage
ment, aid, and regulation to
control erosion on private
land. Fifty years ago Ameri
can cities began planning
their land uses, then the
planning idea was expanded
te include the metropolitan
region; today we talk of
county planning, state, and
even national land plan

Katherine Cornell in her produc
tion of Rudolf Besier's "The Bar
retts of Wimpole Street," in
which she acted for a year in the
Empire theater in New York City,
will be seen in the Liberty theater,
Monday, March 12, the curtain ris
ing at'2:15 sharp for the matinee
and 8 o'clock sharp for the evening
performance.
Basil Rathbone, noted English
actor will play the role of Robert
Browning. Other contributors to
the performance are: Guthrie Mc
Clintic, director; Jo Mielziner, de
signer. The play is built around the
famous love story of Robert
Browning and Elizabeth Barrett
The romance begins with an im
pulsive note from Robert Brown
ing praising Elizabeth's poetry. Se
crecy is essential because of the
tvrannv of the elder Barrett Flush.
Elizabeth's spaniel, is the only wit
ness to the rendezvous and he ac
companies his mistress when she
joins Browning whom she has
clandestinely married.
Besier has followed history
closely in the drama possessing
numerous records and reports per
taining to the romance. Modern
psychology has been delicately em
ployed in interpreting the charac
ters to present day audiences.
Miss Cornell has risen to her
present pre-eminence in the thea

this contention is one which, ac
cording to Professor Lancaster,
might have been extremely justi

divisions characteristic of the
church and nobility. This is shown
In the English House of Lords

clonal interests in slight variance
with tLe basic selection of the

In drafting and revising of the
measures, Professor Lancaster re
plies, "It so happens that the
work of several legislatures has
been studied with these points in
mind. The results of such investi
gations indicate that these argu
ments are without foundation in
fact. The care exercised is about
equal In the two houses. As a mat
ter of fact, the two-house legisla
ture is thought to have worked
out best in those states similar to
Connecticut where a system of
committees largely does away with
separate consideration."
Professor Lancaster submits the
hypothesis of easier public acces
sibility in a more simplified con
trolling body; of attracting abler
men into service bv increased re
sponsibility and a somewhat larger
compensation.
The Idea of a single unit of leg
islative control is not a new one
