Snake Dances.
Hopi Indians Next
On Painted Desert

Phoenix, Ari2, July 29.---On the
Painted Desert Of northern Arizona,
Hori Indians next month viii hold
their noted snake dances. which
annually attract thousands Of tour
lists, This year The dances viii be
held in the villages of Walpl and
Mishongnori.
Nest people believe the snake
dance is d HOpi rain dance. This
is not correct. according to Emry
tcorrect) Koptu. 4 sculptor, who
claims that the ceremony is form
of Indian ancestor worship. Mr.
kopta has been living in Walpi viii
lage for seven Years. and says the
Hops always hold their rain dances
in June and July and the snake
dances in August.
Describing the ceremony, Mr.
kopta declared the dancers open the
dance by stamping upon a plank
laid over a pit. This is intended to
notify the dead that thes ceremony
has begun. Between 100 and $50
snakes are needed for the annual
dances.
Out of the scores of Hopi tradi-
tons. has come d story telling of the
origin of the snake dance, according
to the sculptor. The traditions tell
Of Il Hcpi youth. a dreamer. who
once set out to find what hay beyond
the far hills. He fioated down the
muddy Colorado until he came TO
a land believed to be California
There he met and we'd q maiden of
4 strange tribe and took her back
to his Hopi village.
The first children of the young
couple were snakes and the Hopis
expelled the two from the village.
Then the crops failed, the Indians
suffered from starvation and the old
village priest said the trouble was
brought on by the expulsion. He
declared rain would not fall or crops
mature until the couple was brought
back.
Acting on the priests advice. the
indians searched the deserts for the
two and eventually found them.
After leaving the village. the woman
had borne human children and these
wer" brought back. But the snake

GETTING RID OF TRASH
From tho Providence Journal

II think every family should move
every few years. says Kansas
philosopher, "to get rid of the nat
ural accumulation of junk"
Good. But what is going to be-
come of the accumulation? Is the
family expected to leave it behind
slough 1t off as snake sloughs off
his skin, That wouldn't be fair to
the family that moves in.
Nobody likes to rent house and
find it half full of trash--alI sorts
OF outworn stuff in the closets and
cupboards, piles of refuse on the
floors, abandoned furniture in the
attic and barrels of shoes and empty
bottles in the cellar.
Nevertheless the Kansas man il
on the right track. There is toe
much effort made to save valueless
articles. The idea of the savers is
that these things will come in handy
