OF his impressions of the East to an
other Bismarck audience, when he
lunched with the Kiwanis club at
noon and spoke of his visit to presi.
dent Hoover and General Charles r.
Sumnnerall, In Washington.
Il had a good time" said the chief,
speaking in Sioux which Frank Zahn,
his travelling companion. interpreted.
General Summerall took me around
to many places. I had the honor Of
dining with Vice President Curtis. the
two North Dakota senators and Con.
gresham Sinclair. The vice presi.
dent being an Indian and looking
Nlike one, I felt quite at home with
him.
when Hoover ran for president we
had q lot Of his pictures in my
country and I got the impression he
was q large fleshy man. But when I
met him I found he wasn't. He Is
tall. but he is thin. I had the honor
to talk with him about IS minutes
about the Indians when I visited the
White house.
Lone thing I remember we'll. He
said to me that If I was not treated
right I should let him know and he'd
see I was treated nice.
Il had only one complaint in the
East-it was so hot. / prefer the
weather of my own state. I'm used

Kiwanis, the Lions and Exchange

was back and saw the ocean which
they crossed. I stood at the spot

and I didn't get any. But I want to
thank each and every one Of you for
your hospitality today"
Rindahl Talks Of Church
The other speaker of the lunch was
the Rev. q. 8. Rindahl. He spoke on
the church and the community re-
htionship. He thought there was ma
terial gain derived by q community
from its churches. From 1t proceeded
the fulfillment, he said. Of the text,
"All these other things shall be given
unto you."
The church, he thought. was not
getting it's full share Of returns. rs
It was lacking in the use Of publicity.
The best advertiser does the best
business, he said. The church must
get on this a....:ertising basis, 1t fol-
lowed, If 1t is to serve the needs OF
{ the community and get the benefits
of its service.
