<EChief Blue Sky" En- tertainer and Poet,
 Visits Here. Indian Not Used Right,
 He Says.
By ZELDA BE,DEzEL.

Chief Blue Sky," one of the last of the Sioux chiefs, fu1l-bloode-d Red Man, with all the pride in his race that dfgnifes the real American, makes his bow to Bridgeport
 The chief has been here for some time, giving entertainments at various lodge meetings, before the Junior Chamber of Commerce, the American Legion, and before the school chill dren of the city, where he has been is not often that the Da1eface gets opportunity to shake hands with an American-a prince of the blood and the last of a decadent race.
 The chief has the reddish sbrown skin of his ancestors, the black hair, the small, straight feet, and the more or less, immobile features He looks, in skin pigment, somewhat like the negro, although he vigorously pro- tests against being chased as such. For it is-an insult vile for Red Man, who never would be serf, to be class ed with a race that has once been slave.
 The chiefs tribal name is Osceola Galishir Annawanda, melhhuent, but not preferred by him The one he likes best is '<BFue Sky" given him by his squaw mother
 He was born on the Roosevelt reservation in Gregory, South Da- kota, right on the Red River. At his birth there was nothing around but the heavens, so his mother promptly christened him 'tBlue Sky" This is the habit of the Indian mother, he as serts. Whatever the child first looks

Bitten by RattIer.

On the trip he had an accident that will finger in his memory for many a day. Rolled up in his b1an- ket, he was sleeping before his camp fire, when he was suddenly awakened by the whirr of a rattlesnake. Before he could divert the attack of the deadly reptile, it struck and buried it's poisonous fangs deep into his hand. Rising hurriedly, he retained presence of mind enough to realize ths-t the poison should be burned, so he thrust the injured member into the fire, and half fainting, but with the stoicism of his race, held it there. Then he reeled to the home of a rancher nearby, who furnished him with whiskey enough to counteract the effects of the deadly poison.
 The chiefs entertainnent is an in teresting one. He tells the story of his life and many of the ancient tribal customs that still prevail. Then he cleverly initiates the various prairie birds. the coyote and other plains an- inaalS-
 I've taught the white man how to smoke the pipe of peace and he taught us to dEink firewater." said the chief, in a scathing denunciadon Of the bad turn which he is certain was done to the Red Man.

ADVICE TO THE . LOVELORN
By BEATRICE FAIRFAX.
By BEATRICE TARTAN.

Love sat First Sight.
 Dear Miss Fairfax: Some time ago q man friend of mine gave me the telephone number of a girl he was going about with. He also told me that he loved her very dearly. I called this girl up and told her who I was and that I would like to meet her. Now I am very much in love with her. I would have told her so weeks ago if it were not for my friend
 am making very nice salary and live on same very well. l also have some money in~the bank
 What I would like to know is should I talk to the girl or my friend first, or should I let matters go on as they are? B.S.J.
 Talk the matter over with your friend Frankness between you two men can work no harm and may clear up the situation The other chap did an odd thing when he told you to telephone the girl for whom he cares. Possibly his interest isn't as great as you understand it to be- The way to be fair both to him and to yourself is to have a frank discussion of the matter

How It All Happened

 Ere Solomon ruled in his glory, He went to the movies one day And there was endhralIed by the story Of a comicaI bigamy play The movie his fancy affected
 And we know---for the legend sur That when he grew up he collected Some sixty or seventy wives When Cassius was nineteen or twenty, A terrible movie he saw, Where Stabbjngs and cuttings were
 plenty
 And no one paid heed to the law. He watched it with eager emotion. And now to the world it is clear That there's where he picked, up the
 notion
 That ended J. Caesars career. Guy Fawlzes went to cinemas daily, And deep in his memory sank A scene where two criminals gayly Put dynamite under a bank.

Called 'tthe keenest mind in mo- ton pictures,'' Jeanie Macpherson, scenario writer for Cecil B. DeMi11e, director general of Paramount. pie lures, knows her American public. With her sharp perception of the, likes and dislikes of motion pie ture patrons-especially women she has been able to incorporate in her stories all the elements of heart interest, entertafnment, and background, that are demanded by American audiences.
 Miss Macpherson recently return de from an extended European trip in which she studied condi- tions abroad. She says the Euro pean tastes in pictures differ greatly from those in this country, and that the foreign producers go in more for the spectacle than the story with a strong plot. In the matter of technical perfection the foreign directors are far behind American producers, she asserts after an inspection of European studios.

Indian Is Upright.

Indian Is Upright.
 '"The Indian has had a raw deal" ." he confirmed. While the chiefs attire and appearance are typica1ly Sioux, he is thoroughly Americanized as to pa tois and slang. And we are a harm less race, worthy and upright You never pick up a paper and find an Indian arrested for thieving or rape or murder. They just want to be left alone and to be given some rights, which they feel they deserve. I un- derstand laws have been passed re- gently prohibiting Indians from fish ing and hunting. It seems to me, if that is true, it is taking from my race their livelihood, for they do not take kindly to charity

 As matter of fact, the conspir- ators themselves are not sure. Next month there will be an exodus Of buyers from America who will de- scend on Paris and many anxious hours are being spent in preparation tor their advent.
 One item of information, however, which is of much interest, was brought over last week by a large importer in New York who spends ten months out of twelve in Paris, and that IS that embroidery will be high in favor again. The gorgeous effects which are possible through the artistic treatment of beads, and metallic threads of barbaric tints, ensure the return of at least two ma terials. For it is rumored we are going to be veritab1e birds of para disc in the evenings of the fall and winter seasons.
