School Teacher
Adopted by the
Sioux Indians
Miss Josephine Altman, Former
Teacher Here, Receives
Very High Honor
Miss Josephine Altman, who was
four years ago a member of the
Plattsmouth high school fraternity,
and is here visiting for a few days
at the C. A. Itawls and 10. H. Wc-s-cott
home, has had a rather unus
i ual honor conferred on her by the
members of the Sioux Indian tnnes ot
the Black Hills of South Dakota, in
being adopted into the tribe and
given the title of Zt-ika-zi-win, which
translated into the English means
Miss Singing Bird.
Miss Altman is now located at
Evanston, Illinois, and has been
largely Interested In the recent years
as an interpreter of Indian folk
songs, has just come west and visit
ing at Hot Springs and other points
in the Black Hills was able to se
cure some very pertinent facts and
close study of the members of the
Sioux tribe, their history, customs
and folklore.
The Indians to show their appre
ciation of the efforts of Miss Altman
is develope the Indian folk songs for
preservation to the future by trans
lations, held the very impressive cere
mony of adoption at the Hotel Evans
at Hot Springs where a group of the
Indians numbering several hundred
gathered and where Chief White
Man Bear formally adopted the teach
er as his daughter for the tribe. She
was presented by Paul White Magpie
and Charley Eagle Louse.
On this occasion Miss Altman was
also presented a buckskin gown which
has been for many generation in the
Sioux tribe and held as an heirloom
of one of the families of this tribe
The gown was given to Miss Alt-
man and she has brought it to this
city with her and it is now on ex
hibition in the window of the C. E
Wescott's Sons store.
The gown is more than one hun
dred years old, one woman made each
horse which is a part of the orna
ments of the gown and each of these
represents a memorial to some horse
shot down in battle.
The wars that are referred to in
the gown ornaments are not thos
with the whites but represents the
struggles with the Arapahoe, Chey
enne or Crows. The gown reflects
the manv owners in the apst as it
has been frequently altered, some of
the seams being sewed with sinew
and others with the white man's
thread.
The belt is an heirloom passed
down on the maternal side of some
Sioux family tree, it being made to
refer to the first generation or the
beginning of the family. A mother
would give it to her daughter and
she in turn would hand it down to
her daughter. It is very old.

In addition to the Baton Rouse
HHHBIH II nHH
meeting, the board announced it also
hopes to hold regional commodity
.meetings "in such sections as the
need for such commodity gatherings
becomes apparent."
"Much has been said about the
costs of distribution of farm products
between producer and ultimate con
sumer, and about the possibility that
returns to producers may be increas
ed without any corresponding in
crease in price to the ultimate con
sumer," the statement said. "The
board firmly believes that in many
instances this is possible through the
development of widespread farmer
groups for co-operative marketing,
through greater efficiency in man
agement of co-operative institutions,
land through more direct avenues of
trade between producer and con
sumer than are now found to exist
in many farm commodities." World
