plauds enthusiastically.
In the native dance one notices the
many different postures that ara assumed
by the performers. These are all conven-
tional. but there seems to be no system
about 1t. No two ever seem to be in the
same posture. Each seems to select the
pose that he fancies at the moment. and
uses 1t when he pleases. and as often as
he thinks he is attracting the attention
of the bystanders.
Whites Remain All Week.
Many of the white visitors in this camp
remain all week. They have their camp
equipment and buy supplies from day to
day. Every one is surely next to nature
The rudest things are the disillusion-
ments. With sublime confidence the In
dian relies on his white camp neighbor
for matches. cigarettes. little sugar

horses the Indian offers to find them for
a half dollar; and comes back with them
in a half hour.
The localized Indian grandmother is a
sharp contrast with the realized grand
mother. There one sits in the dust. bask-
ing in the sun, hard favored disheveled
dirty and lazy. Her clothing was donned
some months ago and will never be re-
moved until it falls to pieces or some one
gives her another dress. Extra dresses
are troublesome lying around the prem
ises, SO she is more than likely to put Il
new one On over the old one. The chill
dren. fresh from school, where tho en-
ployes had to keep them clean, are
rapidly becoming as dirty as the old
woman. When they reappear at school,
the first Monday in Sept amber the teach
and the housekeeper will have a strug
gle with the dirt. The government fur
nishes the money, but the teaching force
supplies the devotion, zeal and enthu-
siasm.
