TEN THOUSAND CLUB ENJOYS A FINE
PROGRAM ON AMERICAN INDIANS
Society
Clubs

With q splendid collection of In
dian baskets, pottery, rugs, jewehy
weapons and many other interesting
pieces, the Ten Thousand club audi
torium presented q strikingly ef-
fective picture yesterday afternoon
and made an appropriate back
ground for the program on the
American Indian.
Huge baskets OF Palo Verde BIOS
SONS. q realistic teepee in one corner
of the room, and the bright Indian
costumes OF the Arts and Crafts Sec
ton members who sponsored the
program completed the effect.
Rev. Charles Wilson Baker, vicar
OF ST. Pauls Episcopal church who
has spent many years among the
western Indians, was the speaker
Of the day and gave a fascinating
account of his experiences among
the Indians.
Beginning his remarks with the
statement that the Indian is al
ways a romantic figure to Ameri-
cans because of the stories and leg
ends centering around him and that
he is a tragic figure whom Ameri-
cans cannot contemplate without
Il secret feeling of shame because Of
the way he has been treated, Rev.
Baker described some of the char
acteristics of the Indians he has
known.
Declaring them 10 be moral, in
dustrious and loyal people who have
suffered from the white mans treat
ment, being used too often as po-
ntical football. the speaker stated
that the great tragedy for the IN
dams consisted in putting them on
the reservations, giving them lana
that the white man wouldn't touch.
and placing them in circumstances
for which they were utterly untitled
by virtue of their customs and pre-
viol,s mode of living.
Rev. Baker pointed out that the
Indian is too easily the prey of un-
scrupulous white men and that ne
still needs governmental protection
rather than the full rights OF cit
izenship. Lack of sufficient appro-
priations he declared was the cause
of the poor schools and many OF
the difficulties in educating the
Indians. He added, however. that
improvements are being made at
present and increased funds will
help materially.
With this background, he des-
cribed his eight years work among
the Indians of the Klamath river
valley, and illustrated with articles
from his rare collection which was
on display, the mode of living of
these people Marvellously fine
baskets. beautiful ornaments. and
various objects of dress were shown
which were of great interest to his
audience.
Rev. Baker then went on TO dis
cuss the Indians of the great AM
erican desert, the Navajos in par
ticular, whom he described as a
more primitive people than the
Klamath river Indians, but the only
nation which has never been taken
off its own land, chiefly because
the land is SO poor.
Sheep raising and little agricul-
ture are their chief industries, and
he told of their magic, their dances.
of some of their customs. traditions
and religion.
He concluded his remarks with

types and classes OF hot sandwiches
besides the regulation toast with
sauted slices OF bread, French
filling. There are those in which
toast or fresh slices of bread oven
toasted with the filing are used.
The hot baking powder biscuit type
seems more like meat or vege-
table shortcake than sandwich.
There are dessert sandwiches
and breakfast sandwiches, and the
very novelty of them makes it pos
Sible TO serve simple nourishing
foods so they will be welcomed by
everybody.
Open sandwiches are attractive
with their garnish OF minced par
sley. thinly sliced pickle. olive or
grated cheese in place OF the top
slice of bread or toast.
Substitutes for Salads
Many of the meat sandwiches
are combined with vegetables,
making a salad unnecessary.
Others require crisp salad or cab

Crisp toast is more wholesoma

Show Local Relics
Miss Lottie Ehmke was then pre-
sented and gave a few interesting
remarks on the Imperial Valley
desert Indians. The Paul j. Ehmke
family has the only large collection
of Indian relics Of the desert. most
of the articles being collected near
Mt. Superstitious.
Miss Ehmke spoke of the four
tribes whose ancestors were origin
ally of the Tartar, Mongolian and
other European peoples, who finally
migrated TO the valley at the time
when the floor of the valley was
covered with water and was a part
of the Gulf of California. Mt. Sup
erstitious. Mt. Signal and other
spots were the only dry lands at
this time and it is here that the
Indians gathered. They worshipped
the fish and traces of this worship
are found in decorations and in the
shape of pottery, and other relics.
Adding much TO the charm of the
program were the two vocal solos
presented by Mrs. Hugh T. Osborne,
accompanied at the piano by Mrs
E. o. Carter. The lovely Waters
Of Minnetonka" and the Land OF
the Sky Blue Water" were her
songs which made a fitting intro
duction to the talks by Rev. Baker
and Miss Ehmke.
In addition to the Baker and and
Ehmke collections which contain
many rare and valuable pieces,
there were on display fascinating
collections loaned by Kenyon's
desert plunge, by DR.. and Mrs.
Warren Fox, Mrs. R. H. McKibbin,
Mrs. w A. Tondro. and others.
OF equal interest was the Arts
and Crafts display OF work done by
them during the year, many at
tractive and artistic bits of hand
work being exhibited.
AT the conclusion Of the program
the Arts and Crafts members in
their attractive costumes, circled
the teepee from which they served
refreshingly cold punch and dainty
cakes.
The business session preceded the
program at which time chairmen.
