A HEROIC RESCUE
FROM THE BRINY?
Not exactly, though
perhaps it could be
called a rescue. It's
a baptismal scene in
the Mississippi when
thirty-eight Of the
5000 persons recent
ly converted in st.
Louis by Mrs. Aimee
Semple Mcpherson,
evangelist and faith
healer, were immersed
in the cold waters
(reported tempera-
ture 55 degrees) of
the mighty river at
one session.

DO YOU REMEM-
BER T HE OLD
SWIMMIN' HOLE of
your boyhood days?
Perhaps this appeal
ing picture of the
Days of Real Sport"
will bring back the
happy memory of
those wonderful far
away times when
after school was out
you and the gang
would race from the
bend in the creek
where you'd rigged a
snappy spring board
out over the inviting
water. No bathhouse
to rent, no bathing
suit to bother about
just you and the
fellers, sunshine and
the cool waters.

OLD PEACE PIPE
OF SITTING BULL
NOW in MUSEUM
Interesting Relic of AbOrigines in
Possession of South Dakota
Historical Society

Aberdeen, s. d., May 20.-The fam
GUS old pipe OF peace of the Indian
chief, Sitting Bull, has lately been
presented to the. state historical So
ciety by H. c. Pryor, of the Aber
deem Normal School
On the stem of the relici burned or
linked into the wood is the autograph
of the warrior. The bowl of the pipe
is Of pink sandstone from the quar-
ries at Pipestone, Mimi. The stem is
about 20 inches long and is of ash
wood. The pipe was traded to Mr.
Pryor's father. !. d. Pryor, now
resident Of Los Angeles, by Sitting
Bull at Camp Crook in 1887 for a
blanket
There was some argument. | be-
lieye about the autograph" explained
Mr. Pryor. "rhe old chief thought
he should have extra compensation
besides the blanket for it. 1t seems
that his name was about the only
thing Sitting Bull could write in
English and he was very proud of it.
"The story goes that Sitting Bull
had just been released from prison at
Fort Randall and was making his way
northward to the reservation. A ways
ready to pick up fe wdollars, he
stopped off at Pierre, s. D., and
started a flourishing business selling
his autographed cards at 81 each.
Some one induced him to step into
the telegraph office there and write
his name on number of harmless
looking message blanks. The Indians
anger rose to white heat when he
discovered that carbon had been in
serted between several sheets under
the one on which he wrote"
