 Indian Exhibit
 One of the most attractive dis plays ever made at the Northern Arizona State Fair or any place n the entire Southwest is that from the far reservations. Of the Hopi and Navajo Indians ill Northern Ari- zona This display has been brought to the fair finder the supervision of Winner Roberts, of Na-ha-tee. Ari- zona. The most wonderful display of Navajo rugs made by the Indians in Northern Arizona is in th's dis play and consists of about fifty rugs, all sizes, shapes and colors.
 Perhaps the most interesting part of the display is the fact that the Indians themselves, the real Navajoes 1 and Hopis are with the exhibit.
 Hastin Vega of Antelope Springs, l who came to Arizona on the first Santa Fc train crossing the country, is with the exhibit. Some forty years ago he landed in the reservation i and from that day until he stepped | on the train bound for Prescott he had never left the Navajoes. He is one of the most expert silvcrsmiths l in the tribe and will be seen at his work each day of the fair. He was frightened when brought to the courthouse by Roberts, stating in Navajo, which Roberts speaks well, that he believed the thing would cave in.
 iKillea, pottery maker and blanket weaver, from Tcwa is seen with the looms and making pottery each day of the fair.
 Navajo wcavcrs and Hopi basket demonstrate their skill each day at the Indian exhibit, located i'll the mining building
