The Navajo woman, who has made
her tribe the most famous of all nv-
ing Indian races by means OF her great
and excellent invention. the Navajo
blanket, occupies q social position OF
great independence. Her property
rights are cacefully respected. She
owns much OF the wealth of the tribe,
and her children belong 10 her alone.
A woman may have hundreds of sheep
when she marries. and not one be-
comes the property of her husband.
Descent is traced through the femae
line. II is n survival of the primitivs
matriarchate.
The Navajo woman has no perma-
neni home The pEogress OF the tribe
has been greatly impeded by it's dark
