would not always be so particular as
to whether your hands were as white
as they are now. Dirt is good for peo-
pie at times. The greatest mistake in
the world is to bring up our children as
II they were Little Lord Fauntleroys.
THE white woman thinks she is
creating some new form and she Is al
ways changing her fashion to get this
new form, but 1t Is the newest things
In imbecility which she succeeds In get
ting. The Indian woman could teach
the white woman the designing OF form.
She goes to nature for her designs. She
creates while the white sister only
copies. Her baskets are masterpieces
of art for they work out her own ideas.
"As for the Indian not having any
religion I know people in Los Angeles
who will sell their own religion and the
religion of everyone else for fifty-five
cents, and 1t would be dear at that,
while all the carloads of silver dollars
in the world could not make good
Indian move one step from the path of
her religion"
To illustrate this Mr.. James told some
stories of his attempts to hribe Indian
women.
A delightful surprise of the afternoon
was the appearance of Miss Ellen Beach
Yaw, who sang three songs. 1t was the
hope of the parliament to have her sing
at the musical reception last evening,
but i'll health made 1t impossible for her
to go out for the evening affair and to
make up for her absence she sang yes
terday afternoon.
After the singing of the first two
numbers in which her magnificent So
prano voice, was heard to splendid ad-
vantage, Miss Yaw was presented with
large basket of pink roses and she
responded with "The Last Rose of Sum-
mer."
A fitting close to a most successful
day was the musical and reception to
delegates given last evening. Mrs. Will
liam John Scholl arranged the program
and it was like most of those musical
affairs under Mrs. ScholPs direction,
charming success.
The evening opened with three piano
numbers played by Miss Fanny Dillon,
"Des Abends," by Schumann;
"Warun," also by Schumann, and
"Rhapsodie' in D minor, by Brahms.
All three numbers revealed the temper
ament of the musician and the fine
technique which is her possession.
contralto Adds 70 Pleasure
Miss Estelle Katherine HEARTS rich
contralto was heard in two songs from
the orient, "Till Awake" and IF in
the Great Bazaar by Woodtorde san
den, and later in the evening she sang
Polly Willis" by Arne, and a Cradle
Song bv Kate Vannah. She was ac-
companied by Henry Edmund Earl
The harp solos by Miss Myrtle 'Quellet
were other much enjoyed features OF
the program, and the closing numbers
were by Miss Dillon, who played Moe
ture, by Chopin, and "Erlkonig," by
Schubert-Li.
The reception was held in the church
parlors after the musicale, and Mrs.
Gibbs was assisted in receiving by
prominent local club women. Il
