Real Indian and Reel Indian

-" YING in motion picture camp
next to a Hopi Indian reserva-
ton, with hundreds of the tribe taking
part in the picture, provides an excel
lent opportunity to learn something
about the red man in his native habi-
tat and his manner of living" says
Jack Holt, co-star of wild Horse
Mesa" which is being filmed in Ari-
zona
MY greatest disillusionment came
when / learned that the language
spoken by these Indians is not the
sign language. but a spoken language
of their own. Practically every mem
ber of our company had mastered
some of the sign language before go
ing on location, but we might as well
have saved our time and effort. for
our first attempts to converse by signs
was not only a failure, but regarded
by the Indians as an insult When we
stopped making strange motions with
our hands and arms we got along bet
ter, and before the month was over we
began to learn Hopi talk and they be.
gan to learn a bit of English.
Another thing l learned was that
an Indian who owns $50 ponies is con
sidered wealthy. Into the discard
went another pet Illusion regarding the
untold wealth of some of the HopiS
Near the location camp which Ere
mont erected was an Indian trading
post, TO which the Indians each day
brought blankets that would have been

that amount in cash from a member

miles around to be treated for ina e.
mary and real ailments. But no mat
ter what their trouble. they would not
permit the doctor to use q knife, al
though they appeared to enjoy the ap-
plications of salve and bandages.
Furthermore, no Hollywood "vamp''
has anything on the Hopi squaws
when it comes to flashing white teeth.
Perhaps those who aspire to pearly
teeth and spend large sums for a den.
tist might find the secret of those won
derfully white teeth from the Hopi
women.
THE Indians have an original way
of shaving. The brave who wishes 10
remove the hairs from his face simply
takes n piece of bent tin, firmly grips
an individual hair, and out it comes
1t is evident, too, that they shave
often. but wash their faces seldom.
THE Hopi girls do the counting, and
also after marriage have full divorce
privileges. If the husband doesn't be

throws him out and his personal be
longings after him.
They have no bungalow courts, but
live in mud huts which they call
''Hogans." When a good Indian dies
they Just seal up the doors and leave
him there. which is as cheap and eco
nomical a burial as one can imagine.
During our first week in camp we
set up a radio and invited the boys
and girls in. When those Hopis heard
human voices coming out OF the little
loud speaker they took it on the run
in a body and the next day we had
the utmost difficulty in rounding them
up for some of the scenes.
Indians love to act for pictures
