INDIANS.

Dear Little Men and Women: As I spent two
months OF the past winter in California. thought
7 would tell you of some of my experiences on
the way out. On the second day after we lert
Chicago the scenery became so very interesting
that 1 spent most of the time the observation
platform At the end OF our long train In the
morning. after We had crossed the Canyon Dlable,
We commenced to see the mud huts and adobes Of
the Indians. Every in while We would
catch d glimpse Of the Indian women in their
shaWIs and Navajo blankets. Some Of them would
have their pappooses strapped to their backs. We
would wave 10 them, and while some just stared
at Us, others would wave back Outside Of the
adobes were their mud ovens where they cooked
their meals Further on we would see the male
Indians oughing in the fields They would step
Just long enough TO wave their hands. and then
take up the pIoughs and trUdge on WheneVer the
train stopped to get water. the Indian women
would come down the train to sell their pottery
and bead work. They would come to our platform
and lift up their wares. saying, Ten zentz; TWEEN
ta-vive zentz" AS they had very pretty
things almost every one bought something About
noon we stopped for about forty minutes at Albu-
auerque a most interesting place. Next 70 the
station Is an Indian building where the Indians
rugs pottery, baskets and bead work are dlsp aged
and sold. In one corner of the room / saw a
great many people collecting. / soon found out
the attraction. There was Indian woman WeaV-
ing wonderful Navajo rug, and beside her was
q tiny Indian girl weaving a smaller rug on her
own little loom. Ny smaller sister was quite
interested about her and after giving her few
coins asked how old she was She held Up SIX
little copper-colored fingers and then Inouon7d 10
find out my sisters age. 1t happened that Louise
was six also, and i pleased the little girl very
much. After buying few things We went back
TO the train and started once more on our Journey
