t'Do you know said an army
officer, that II Sitting Bull, the old
Sioux chief, had been white man,
he would have been called general
In fact, he was great natural sol
dier--a sort Of Napoleon.
Sitting Bull was not a regular
chief; that is, he wasn't war chief.
He was medicine man; what the
Indians call a medicine chief. But
he had great natural capacity as a
commander His surprise and cut
ting off OF Custer would have been
called great achievement if q white
general had in some way performed
the feat. 1t is significant of Indian
character that Sitting Bull would
never tell the story of the fight at

Cellars Dug by Pilgrim Fathers.

Among the attractions Of the town of
Bourne, Mass, are two historic cellars.
One was dug by the Plymouth colony
and the other by the Dutch traders,
These cellars lie side by side, and the
structures built over them were filled
with goods so necessary for the comfort
of the early pilgrims as well as the
Dutch. The pilgrims needed manufac-
tured goods such as the Hollander had
for sale, and the Dutch required prod
ucts such as the colony could supply.
Gov. Bradford, in his "diary," states
that this block house was built as early
as 1927, only seven years after the land
ing of the Mayfower.
