INDIAN PEACE PIPE

Continued from Preceding Page)
/ am glad. The young men OF The
French nation and young men OF the
Dakota nation fought together IN the
same cause against our common en-
envy. and some of both nations died to-
gether in that struggle and were buried
in the came ground.
Then he held up the pipe and said:
Among my people the DaKorns, II Is
our custom to offer the pipe and smoke
together: so In Ike manner ! wish to
smok, with the Marshal and to give
him this pipe a token OF friendship
Now the meaning OF the pipe and its
parts are these; the pipe-bowl is made
from catlinite, red stone which Is
fodnd only In southwestern Minnesota.
The stone in this use signifies firm
and lasting friendship. The pipestem is
of ashwood. aud signifies that our
friendship shall be durable and un-
broken. The hollow of the pipestem
thru which we draw the smoke is
straight, sgnifying that the words pro-
ceding from our lips shall be just and
true. and that our paths shall be
straight. The colors OF these ribbons
upon the pipestem also have their
Gaming. The white signifies that all
former differences are cleared away.
and we shall be candid friends. The
red ribbon is the color OF blood and
signifies that we are all of one blood
Then -Tomahawk held the pipe
first to the North. then East, to South
and to the West; then aloft to re sky,
then downwards to Mother Earth. This
was n form of invocation to all the
Divine Powers.
He then lighted the pipe and drew
upon 1t. and then offered the mouth
niece to the Marshal. who also drew
upon Il. and then to Mai. Welch.
"Red-Tomahawx was Obliged to alb
breviate Tho ceremony because of the
lack of time. He also abbreviated the
explanations OF the symbolism for the
same reason. If time had permitted all
should have been seated upon the
ground.
The material for smoking. with
which the pipe was filled, was mix
n native shrub. a species OF dogwood,
Cornus stolonirera.
Tobacco is invested with something
Of mystery and sacrcdness in the IN
dian thought, and was used ceremon-
tally in the manner of incense
After delivering the pipe to Marshal
Foch ed-Tomahawk declared his de-
sire and purpose to confer upon the
Marshal the nonor of name in the
Dakota nation, Wakinyan Watakpc.
This name with which -TomahawK
invested the Marshal has significance
in connection with the historic mes
sage sent by the Marshal at the first
battle OF the Marne: The situation Is
excellent, am attacking" The mean
ing of the Dakota word Watakpe Is
ito make an attack" "to charge The
meaning Of the Dakota word Wnk'-yan
Is lightning. Therefore the meaning of
the namo IS lightning g-in-attack," or
lightning which attacks"

the ledge. with its two acres or more
of reptilian footprints. nearly SO years
ago. Some OF the finest specimens
were removed and placed in the coll
lego museum. Easily accessible from
the state highway. the ledge has been
to protect its markings from damage
by vandals and souvenir hunters.
Prof w. ]. Miller of Smith College
says that the three toed footmarks.
varying from three and four to fifteen
and sixteen inches in length, were
made in flood-covered mud that hard
ened when the water receded. This
was overlaid perhaps thousands. of
feet deep by successive deposits dur
ing the Triassic period. In succeed
Ing geological ages erosion OF the
everything strata exposed the tracks
again to the light. So perfect were
the impressions taken by the mud
that ripple marks left by the reced-
ing waters are clearly visible.
DR.. w. d. Matthew. curator of tho
American Museum of National His
tory. New York. believes the Connec-
ticut Valley dimosaur footprints date
back to the beginning of the age Of
reptiles. During the whole OF. this
age, estimated at 100000 years or
more. the dinosaurs were the domin-
ant land animals. as the higher quad
rupeds had not appeared In force. The
dinosaurs are supposed to have dis
appeared eight million years ago.
Relatively few remains have been
found OF the animals that made these
footprints. Part of a skeleton Is pre-
served in the Yale Meseum and COM
plete skeletons have been found In
Germany. Remains of the dinosaurs
of the later Cretaceous period. larger
and stranger looking than those OF
the Triassic, are less rare.
There were numerous species of the
Triassic dinosaurs Some reached a
height of 25 feet according to geo
logists. Some walked nearly erect on
the hind feet. using their long tail
as a support. In appearance they are
supposed to have resembled gigantic
lizards.
The climate Of the Connecticut VAL
ley when these monsters roamed the
earth Is said by Prof. Loomis OF Am
herst College to have been something
like that of Arizona today. hot and
dry. tho not tropical. Some OF the
dinosaurs are supposed to have been
carnivorous. while other species sub.
sisted upon plant life.
