THE "SHAN KivE"

Seventy five Ute Indians in full
rcgalia will solemnly conduct the
ceremonies of marking the old Ute
trail above Manitou Springs. The
ceremony will take place August
%, at the time of the Pixies Peak
Summer carnival and Indian Shan
Kive.
When the white men first came
to the foot of the Great White
Mountain, early in the eightecth
century they found a trail into the
mountains so we'll worn that parts
of it remain even TO this day. 1t
must have taken centuries Of tread
ing by soft moccassincd feet and
hoofs of ponies to have made 50
deep a mark. The trail left the
canon of Fountain creek about
three miles above Manitou and
wound down the mountain side in
to Ruxton creek, at n point just
belaw the Iron Springs. This is the
portion of the trail that is to be
marked, by white marble blocks
which have been provided by pio-
necr citizens of Colorado.
This great band of Utes, which
is coming from Ignacia, is the lar
gcst that ever has had permission
to leave the government reserva-
ton. Besides accompanying the
pioneers, the Indians will also con-
duet their ceremonial rites at the
Springs, which their ancestors held
sacred, and will dance amid the
red rocks of the Garden Of the Gods.
A more modern feature of their
visit will he the bringing of a base
ball team to meet white mems clubs
in their common national games.
shan kive' is the Indian word
for fete or festival. l. is pronounce
ed Shawn Keedie." As it is the
purpose to feature the life of tile
Utes, their ceremonies and dances,
it has been adopted as the name
for the annual Pixies Peak Region
summer carnival.

high chair and whole lot of attention.
But my mother only laughed over the
mistake, and expected I had as much
satisfaction over that wedding supper
under the table as the best Of that COM
pany. Nowadays the wedding day is the
last day, and all the hurrahs and fine
dressing go ahead. except the final cere-
mony, when the poor bride is so tired
and worn out with going and coming,
with showers" and functions, and
luncheons and rehearsals, that she is
glad 10 get away to her honeymoon
and rest.
The eating part, in old times, was the
biggest part OF the business. It had to
be a big affair TO feed the entire neigh
borhood. Nowadays there is plenty Of
style, but precious little on the plates to
eat. II the old timers were kind Of glut-
tOnous. the latter day crowd will not be
affected with indigestion from over
eating. because the portions are so tiny
that a good-sized mouth could cover the
ration and hardly feel incommoded in
swallowing.
So times change. and weddings change
with them. People marry nowadays In
street dresses or decollette gowns. II
ou grandmothers had heard the word
gown" used in relation to a wedding
frock, they would have shivered with
nervous modesty.
But we need not complain at gowns"
when tube frocks'' are being lambasted
so freely by papers and pulpit.

A Condemned World Conceitedly
Condemning the Church

what sort of evil living is this fell
low addicted?" When a preacher is
heard berating the church, it is safe
to say that the probability is he has
been doing something which no good
man ought to do, or teaching some
false doctrine that no one who be-
lieves the Scriptures ought to teach.
The cynical critic, who is fond Of
asserting that there is no virtue in
tn church, is a man out of whom
virtue has departed long ago, and
who seeks to divert attention from
his own vices by finding fault with
that divine institution whose very
existence voices condemnation of
men of his sort.

It has become quite common with
certain class of goddess men to blame
the church for the prevalence Of all
the evils which afflict society. Many
of the evils of which they complain
have been fostered by men OF their
own kind, but by an amazing per-
verseness they pretend to believe that
the source of all the ills of the social
system is In the shortcomings OF the
christian people and the christian IN
stitution that stand most positively for
good in the community.
Is there conflict between labour and
capital? Forthwith these men cry
out 1.-THE church is to blame, not
withstanding the fact that the voice,
of the church has been raised al
ways against the eovetousness and
greed which are at the bottom of all
the troubles between employers and
employees in the land.
DO men forsake in their hayward
ness the house of God, the capital
list pursuing his gains and the labour-
er attending his union on the Sabbath
instead of going to worship in the
sanctuary Instantly the cry is raised,
"The church is to blame. although
the men who have fled from Gods
affairs have gone away because the
church has been faithful in warning
them against sin and calling them to
raraDtanoa
DO pleasure-loving idlers run to
parks and shows rather than attend
religious services? Immediately the
railing accusation is made. The
church is to blame for not holding
these people against the counter at
fractions of the world, as if the SER
mons and services OF Gods house
could by any means be as attractive
to frivolous and worldly minds as
Sunday concerts and sensational spec
tacles.
And so the goddess critics of the
church multiply their accusations
against tho only institution among
men which, with all It's faults real or
OOCS anu mas 81
ways stood for the things that make
for purity, Righteousness, and peace
In the earth and against the things
which defile mankind and destroy civ
ilization. Joining with them in indict-
ing the church are a few preachers
IN every community, who are more
anxious to be praised and petted by
sinners than to be approved by God.
All these make a constant clatter in
press and pulpit about the narrow
ness, dullness, and inefficiency of
Gods church; and thereby they de-
ceive not a few people,
Several things should be observed
about these accusers of the church
and the accusations which they pre-
fer against the hottest and most use
full institution I'm the world.
In the first place. it should be OBJ
served that they condemn, the
church because the church condemns
them. A careful investigation will
show that in every case the accusers
of the church of God are indulging
some habit which the Scriptures de-
nounce and which the church must
condemn or be unfaithful to it's high
commission. Sinners, who have made
up their minds to continue in sin,
have no more use for the church
than burglars and bandits have for
the officers of the law. When a
man is heard vociferously denounc
ing the church, II is well to ask, ITO
