And the Discussion Ended.

Two little boys, living In different

in a distant city. A discussion arose
between them as to the merits of their
home towns. The heights of their re-
spective churches became Il part Of
the discussions.

"Our church reaches to the sky"

MANUELITO, THE GREAT CHIEF
OF THE NAVAJO

TT HAPPENED at Fort Defiance,
1 Arlz. One tissue day" a crowd Of
Nayajoes gathered around the corral
looking hungrily at the steers-big,
rangy lOnghOrns which would 500 be
fresh beef for them. Unnoticed by
anyone a little Indian boy slipped TN
der the fence and toddled out into the
Enclosure.
In an instant a big steer had trotted
out from the herd and, shaking Its
long, sharp horns, advanced upon the
tiny figure, who curiously watched the
animals approach. There was a mo-
ment Of Mortified suspense-then a toll,
straight Indian jumped from the cor
raj fence and In a few flying leaps had
placed himself between the baby and
the Oncomfng steer. There he stood
with arms folded across his breast.
At the same instant the steer charged.
The animal came on with the force
Of q locomotive. At the last second
1t stopped and stood swinging Its head
back and forth with the points of the
sharp horns just missing the breast
of the Indian. But the erect figure did
not finch. Not a muscle moved. The
steer was puzzled. Evidently deciding
that 1t was not worth while to bump
his head on something which might be
a post, the longhorn turned and trot-
ted back to his fellows.
AS the Indian walked back to the
corral fence with the baby on his
shoulder there was no agitation In his
manner. For was he not Manuelito,
wal chief of the Navajo? He gained
this position in 1855 while the Navajoes
were a constant terror to the early
settlers of Arizona. Several expedi-
tons sent against them had failed, but
In 1883 Col. Kit Carson, the famous
scout, whipped them so thoroughly
Nat they never again were guilty Of
any organized hostility towards the
whites.
After that Manuelito, the war chief.
became a peace chief, and in 1872 he
was appointed captain Of the native
police force organized to keep order on
the reservation. Once when a number
of young bucks were planning an out
break Manuelito called them into couf-
ell. Picking up a handful OF sand he
said, DO you know how many grains
Of sand are In my handf There are
just that many white men for you to
fight. Now do you wish to make warp
They did not, for Manuelito's symbol
of the Americans strength brought
them to their senses. From then on
until his death In 1893 he proved him
self a wise and far-seeing leader and
his lame is still reyered by the Navajo.

PETALESHARo ENDS THE RITE
OF HUMAN SACRIFICE
By ELMO O WATSON

TN THE valley Of the Platte river
L dwelt the Skidi or Wolf Pawnees, a
tribe In the age-old confederacy OF
Chahiksachahiks, "men of men," Their
gods were the stars, the morning star
representing the masculine element,
the evening star the feminine. Under
the direction of a tribal priesthood the
Skidi held u series Of ceremonies SYM
bolical of the creation and perpetua-
ton of all living forms and culminat-
ing In the sacrifice of a young girl to
the morning star.
About 1924 a captive Comanche girl
was chosen as the victim for this sac
rifice. All of the Skidi had assembled
at the altar, the priests had bound the
girl to a cross and were preparing to
begin the dreadful rites. Suddenly a
young warrior sprang to his feet. 1T
Is the wish of my father that this prac-
tice be abolished" he shouted to the
priests. You may do n OF two
things-free this woman from the sac
riice or accept me in her place.
Before anyone could interfere he
| sprang to the woman's side, cut the
thongs which bound her, seized her In
his arms and bore her swiftly through
the crowd to u place where two fleet
horses were waiting. Mounting, they
fled before the d~umfOunded Skidi had
recovered their wits. After riding
some distance with the woman the
Pawnee warrior stopped. Pointing to
the south he said, The trail is open
before you. Here is food to supply
you on your long journey. This horse
l give you, too. He will carry you
safely back to your people" Then he
turned to the Skidi village.
His bold deed was accepted without
protest by his people, for he was Pc
talesharo (Pitaresharu - Chief Of
Menu, the son of Chief Old Knife
Uetalesha) and their greatest warrior.
And 50 impressed were the Skidi By
his act that they never again offered
a human sacrifice to the morning star.
PetalesharO's fame spread to the
whites and a few years later tie stu
dents of a woman's seminary In Wash
lngton, d. c., sent the Pawnee warrior
q silver medal, accompanied by an ad-
dress which ended with these words
"Brother, accept this token Of our es-
TEEN always wear 1t for our sake, and
when you have the power to save a
poor from death and torture,
think of this and Of us and fly to her
rescue"
That medal became Pe~talesharO's
most priced possession and he wore II
until the day of his death In the sum.
