On October II, General Sheridan
started west to Investigate the vide

October rs two companies Of infantry
arrived at Fort Custer from Fort
Keogh, one Of cavalry from Fort Nc
Ginnis and two from Fort Mckinney
all under command Of General Dud-

such preparations for war have been
made since 1876" Meanwhile Sword
Bearer and his swelling band were en-
camped at 4O-AAile ranch close to Fort
Custer.
From all over the reservation, the
peaceful. frightened Grows, quite as
troubled as the threatened whites, were
crowding into the agency with their
families, begging for protection. They
were between two fires-the divine
power Of Sword Bearer and the belch-
ing cannons of the whites.
Chief Pretty Eagle was greatly trou-
bled. The soldiers insisted that he give
up Sword Bearer. Again and again
he went to the mad young agitator, |
pleading with him to surrender, eau I
tioning him that nothing but calamity
could possibly come from his wild re-
bellion. But the young medicine man
would not listen He was insane with
the zest for power and victory, intox-

leadership, and on fire with hatred Of
the whites.

Is q great man Ali things bend before
him, The gun OF white man cannot

The Crows at this time were In des-
perate need Of a wise leader whose in
fluence might counterfeit that Of the
shrewd insurgent and the whites, equal
Iy desperate, needed an arbiter who
could make peace with the Crows be-
fore the tragedy Of war could occur.
So both Crows and whites turned with
one accord to the only man who might
perform this difficult task
the slbchief Plenty Coups. But, at
this most critical period In the history
If the Grows, when his peoples need for

The other faction had for its leader
a young, ambitious Grow, Chees-ta-

Sword-Bearer itched for power. He
burned with hatred of the whites. He
envied Plenty Coups his growing in

often, 1t appeared, luck was with him.
Once. while out with small band OF
hot-headed warriors, he prophesied a
storm. 1t CHANGED that soon afterwards
a storm came, with loud thunder and
heavy lightning. The crafty Sword
Bearer did not fail to make use Of the
situation. 1T was /, Sword Bearer, who

shouted. His young satellites among
the Crows began to believe him tnvtnc-

the Great Spirit to lead them out OF
their gruelling servitude to the whites.
They did not doubt his story when he
assured them that once as he was UP ON
the mountain top making medicine,
the skies opened and the Great Spirit
sent a sword down to him from the
Blue. They were ready TO follow him,
with his magic sword, wherever he led,
and his way led them into open hos

er, then about 26 years old, had under
him $50 armed young bucks, with new
arrivals coming daily from other tribes
to join his band. They fortified them |
selves in the mountains above the Lit

rumor spread rapidly among the uneasy

In one of his rare talkative moods he

short time before his death that his

had given her a poetic name that
seemed to him to suit her because her
young, light feet, in the tribal dances,
were like small, flying birds. He called
her Flying Bird" She died while he
was still a young man, before the vic

ethics of his tribe, he married her sis

Flying Bird died in 1887, and that
was memorable year, marked, for the
Crows and for the white settlers OF
Montana, with excitement more than
tinged with fear, for it was in the
fall of that year that the peaceful
Crows threatened insurrection, bring
ing wildly back to the terrorized minds
of the whites the awful massacre on
Custer hill and menacing them with
the same fate.
Pretty Eagle was then chief Of the
Crows, and under him were two rival
political factions. The one, headed by
the sub-chief and warrior, Plenty
COups, advised the prudent policy Of
permanent peace with the whites.

than ours, but because they are strong

hope of survival is to submit to them"
And to this course most of the wise
ones Of the tribe aligned themselves.

Beauty
Clear Skin of

By JULIET SHELBY

Not all adolescents are as for
tunate as Helen Parrish, bril-
liant young star Of the RKO
studios, for she possesses a skin
that is free from any hint or
sign of any blemish of any sort.
Her dainty complexion is in
deed lovely in it's promise of the
maturer beauty to come.
What is a potentially acne
form skim" is a question con-
fronting many mothers. A skin
troubled with blackheads, espe-
cially if it is oily, is always a
potential source of acne. Con-
gested pores become irritated
and clogged, pimples come as a
result.
This condition is just as COM
mon among adults, even up to
the age of 80. as it is with the
adolescent child.
If you have definite symp-
toms of an acne skin, take my
advice and follow the basic
rules of health. Treat your
skin externally with cosmetics
which are scientifically pre-
pared to combat this skin an.
noyance.
See that your diet is correct.

cially to it's cleansing. For a

may have to boil the milk before
it is given to the baby. Not only
does boiling hard for three min

milk easier to digest.
CurdS are formed in the little
stomach, and those from raw
cows milk are so large and
tough-often the size of lima
beans - that they may pass
through the intestines in un-
digested form. The curds from
boiled milk much more resemble
the small, soft ones formed by
mothers milk.
On the other hand, boiling de-
Stroys vitamins and other Valu-
able constituents of the milk, be-
sides tending to create constipa-

teurizing has been properly
done, it should make the baby's

Matinee Party
For Girls
ByMRS. CORNELIUS BEECKMAN

ByMRS. CORNELIUS BEECKMAN
Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
'My daughter will graduate
from a small private school for
girls. a high school with only
10 girl graduates. I am plan
ming to give her a theater
party, preceded BY a dinner at
a hotel. Would this be proper
entertainment for girls of their
age?
would they have to be &C,
cOmpanied by hoSteses to the
hotel and theater, or could
they be greeted by hostesses at
the hotel and allowed to eat
alone in a private dining room?
A READER"
If it is possible for your
household arrangements, it
would be more charming to
give this dinner in your own
home, rather than at a hotel.
Perhaps you would like to ar
range a buffet dinner if a sit.
down dinner isn't possible.
The next best arrangement,
if this suggestion isn't possible
to carry out, is for you to give
a luncheon at hotel and have
the theater party a matinee.
Or a matinee with a tea-party
afterWard, either in your home
or in a hotel.
If the girls are to have dinner
at a hotel and later go to the
theater you should go with
them. and perhaps invite a
mother of one of the girls, or
a close friend of yours, to &C.
company you.
If you decided to have the
dinner in private dining.
room of a hotel, you and the
other mother might see that
the girls are seated and then
might dine in the hotel dining
room. When it is time to leave
for the theater you would "col-
lect" the girls from their private
dining room, to accompany
them to the theater.
