A memorial in the shape of q huge
granite boulder with appropriate
copper marker will be placed at ARM
stead, Montana, in the near future
by the women's clubs of that state.
The unveiling will be memorial
event and practically every section
of the inter-mountain northwest will
be represented and many people of
prominence attend. The occasion
will be one Of some moment and the
occasion is one which is entitled to
the respect of all citizens OF the
country and the northwest in partic-
ular, on account of the great service
and sacrifice made by Sacajawea, or
the bird woman" as the Indian
girl was named and known who led
the expedition Of Lewis and Clark
into the northwest and made this
great section of the country possible
for the white man.
Mrs. Irene Halterman Of Helena,
Mont, upon whom will fall the hon
or of unveiling the memorial. is a
direct descendant of Sacajawea. The
fact of Mrs. Halterman's descend
ancy, says, the Helena Record,
become known through the efforts
of the Montana Federations of Wo-
mems clubs and the Helena Chapter
Of the Daughters of the American
revolution to have descendant of
the noted Indian woman unveil the
Sacajawea monument at Armstead.
Mrs. ]. w. Scott of Armstead,
chairman of the Montana Sacajawes
committee, through her indefatig-
able efforts, located Mrs. Halterman
in Helena. The latter has expressed
a willingness to attend the Arm.
stead celebration and officiate in th'
unwilling of the statue. She vii
be taken as the guest of the loca
chapter of the Daughters of tn
American Revolution, according t,
Mrs. Geo. B. Conway, who has beel
in communication with Mrs. Scott
Mrs. Halterman. though knowing
of her heritage refrained from dis
closing it merely for the fact tha
she thought nothing of the matter
Her mother was always sensitive c
the fact that she was descendar
of Indian blood, and spoke very Ii
tie concerning her famed Indian al
cestor. It was when in Missoul
last fall that Mrs. Halterman r
marked to one of the Missoula HiQ
school faculty the fact that she WI
a great-granddaughter of Sacajawt
and it was through this source tn
Mrs. Scott discovered she was a ret
dent of Helena.
Originally member of the Sh
shone tribe of western Montana al

girl of 10 at the Three Forks of {

with danger and surprises. Daylight
charges are never made; it is in the
nighttime. in the smallest, wierdest
hours, that either the Germans lea se
run ahead into a hand-to-hand stab5-
ing affray with the enemy.
The grey of morning is a sight cf
good cheer. In our trench we measure
tn emorning light by whether or not
we can see the legs of the Juggler'
fluttering in the wind.
The Juggler was the corpse OF a
Frenchman. which for six weeks lay
some 200 feet in front of our trenches
on his back, with his arms out-stretch-
ed, canvas water-bucket clutched in
each hand, his legs sticking up in the
air, i'll a spot SO deadly from rifle
fire that no one could reach him. The
dead man lay there through the nights
and days. The French called this
grotesque heal 'the JuggIer" because
they remembered that Japanese ath-
letes stretched themselves out in this
dead mans posture and tossed things
about in the air with their feet.
When the rags on the legs of the
Juggler" were plainly seen then we
knew that morning had come. an
other night of madness had passed,
and we might sleep until the ni2ht
lights and the night noises broke out
again at sunset.

tween sunset and the fall of darkness.
II the real picture were put on the
stage it wouldn't be believed. As
YOU sit and watch it yourself you feel
that your eyes and your mind are de-
ceiving you. The gold in the west
ern sky turns to red, the shadows
lengthen and the gulch OF the tren,h h
is flied with the deeping darkness of
early night. 1t begins to grow cold
and the frost crystals form on the
muddy sides OF the trenches, giving
the effect of tinsel or bits OF bright
stones. The darkness of the trench
is broken, now and then, by the flare

the fare OF rifle sending out its
MESSENGER OF death.
Silhouctted against the red sky is
the erect figure OF Legion soldier,
his glistening bayonet protruding
along the trench wall and catching
the dying glare of the suns light.
Further along areethe ugly shadows
OF the machine guns. Frightened by
the polished brasswork.
AS the darkness grows deeper, you
catch glimpse OF sharp pin-point
