Through the kindness of Cracia

received Vol. l. No. OF the
NAVAJO TIMES and have read
it with interest and apprec alton.
We would be glad to exchange
papers, and will send you The

us on your subscription list.

I have met, and OF others l have
not met. The number OF Illus

ticles were well written also.
While ! am writing, lct me
urge Navajo weavers to be care
full to write their names aco ad
dresses fully and plainly on the
tags which are attached to .very
genuine Nvajo rug, and write
in ink. Recently I bough: three
lovely Navajo rugs for the room
at home where / do most Of my
work. None of these rugs was
fully and legibly labelled Rug
2347 was made by Margaret Pach-
larc Oast name is hard to deciph-
er and I may not have the last
name correct) of Crystal, and the
state is not indicated. The third
rug has only a small tag, with no
name or address. and only the
figures 19-373-25OO which means
nothing to me, plus the price,
which did mean something /
think the name and address of
the weaver makes a rug more
valuable or at least more presc-
iOus to the buyer. | want to know
who the fine craft workers are
who produce these works of art.
4 hope your paper will pass the
word along that full and legible
tagging of rugs and other pro-
ducts helps establish a bond be-
tween the Navajo people and peo-
pie like myself who would like to
know them better.

western movie as we watched COW
boys being thrown from horses
and Brahma bulls, and people
from all walks Of life represent
ing dudes, fancy ladies, cowboys,
Indians, and curious tourists. Sill
verton, although reputed to be a
ghost town, is rauch too CONNER
cialized for a quiet ghost. The
narrow gauge railroad trip
through the mountains however,
was spectacular in its quiet beau
ty.
Sunday nights were the good
times. After Evening Prayer, we
packed the cars with kids, hot
dogs, and popcorn and snaked a.
long the road to the top of the
mesa. BY the time the eating was
finished, the orange fires just
above the western skies had died
out.
First came the songs with every
body hunched around the camp
fire or relaxed on nearby rocks.
We sang old songs, camp songs,
folk songs. crazy ditties and SEN
timental ballads. The songs the
children didn't know we taught
them. Most of all perhaps the
children liked the rounds, sung in
three parts not always in tune,
but still beautiful. Just before the
night Litany came the ghost stOr-
les with the kids crowded close
around as Father B. related in
his soft voice tales of the desert
ground of the mesa and stars and
moonlight, all were soon lost In
the spell of the tale. After night
Litany, back down the winding
trail, the headlights making un-
earthly forms of rocks and shad-
ows. The day is over and soon
our summer at San Juan will also
be over, but the friends we've
made, experiences we've shared.
and work we've done together will
never before. In Oh rminds and
hearts the people and places of
the San Juan Mission will remain,
and for this We feel we have re
ceived much more than we have
been able to give.

REPORT
Icontinued From Pace ~


- 70 St. MichaeI's and five re-
msining at All Saints. Although
= seemed at times as if the chill
6ren were learning nothing, for
all our efforts, it was most graf
living when the last day rolled
around to find that they had re-
tained much of what we had
been teachir$. What the younger
children lacked in their knOwled-
re of the English language and
the Bible. they made up by their
skill at making sandwiches. How
ever, large quantities fpeanut
butter and jelly often ended up
On their little hands and faces as
well as on the bread.
Having been thoroughly indoc-
srinated by the first Bible School
session, we thought We were all
prepared for st Luke'S and St.
Charles two weeks later. We
soon discovered, though, that the
problems we encountered during
this time were different from
those We had experienced before.
Chief among our difficulties were
the roads. Instead of paved roads
and good gravel roads, we dis
covered we were following sheep
trails and cow paths through un-
bridged irrigation bitches. Jeeps
and heavy trucks would have been
OF more use to us than our sta
ton wagons and the old pickup.
The cnmax came the last day OF
Bible School at st. Charles when
a wrecker had to be called to
haul home the pieces of the blue
station wagon and the remains of
the summer students.
Those of us who went to Car
sons Post to live while teaching
at st. Luke's were distressed at
first by the nothingness OF the
place, but we came to appreciate
and like the stark barrenneSs OF
the desert. When we made new
friends among the children there.
we cheered up considerably and
found our stay most rewardlng.
After several days of traipslng
around the desert visiting that
first week, how did we spend our
first real day off walking, OF
course! We rose at 400 am. and
set out for Mesa Verde National
Park, where we spent a not
thirsty day crawling up little Lad
ders and through little tunnels
viewing the homes Of tn ancient
cliff dwellers. Because Of cur
early rising, we thought We were
dreaming as we beneld the great
natural bauty and the manmade
wonders of Mes Verde. Several
weeks later we had a chance 70
explore more RUNS, this time at
Aztec. New Mexico. After explor-
ing both these ruins, we felt as
if we really knew these ancient
people.
Three nights a week we held a
recreation program for the chill
dren Tor at least it was supposed
to be for the children we had
as much fun as they didO up
here at All Saints. One night DUR
ing a softball game between the
boys and girls. the summer stu
dents got carried away, and the
children, not understanding our
affectionate arguing, were soon
in a free-for-all. Thhis taught us
that, as examples, our every
move was being watched and, In
many instances, copied.
And the work began, but where
does it end? ''KP" we discovered,
meant cooking the meals as well
as cleaning up afterwards. And
cleaning up afterwards involved

STILL TIME TO PLANT
GRAZING, FEED CROPS

There is still time to plant
grazing and feed crops. Sudan
and millet can be planted thro-
ugh the first two weeks of July
provided moisture is available.
Millet is preferred over Sudan
for this late planting. Grain
sorghum can be planted for
grain until the first week in
July, provided irrigation facili-
ties are available. Grain sor-
ghum can be planted for graz
ing only through July if mois-
ture is present. Some dairymen
often plant corn at this time Of
year, cut it and let it dry in
the stock for use as winter
feed. Small growing varieties
Of sorghum can be planted late
for grazing or hay. 1t should be
planted thick. Cow peas can
still be planted for hay, and a
bushel and a half of seed per
acre is a good seeding rate.

badly be heavier in the north
than in the south here in the
Delta. Rain is expected to fall
on each Delta farm on 5 to z
days during July as the lows
move along that track.
Evaporation is expected to
total a little over Z inches dur
ing the next 80 days and will
exceed rainfall in nearly all sec
tons. Fields are due to be
open for work on all but about
S days. Most Of the July rain
fall occurs during the after
noon and early evening hours
and the next 80 days will pro-
badly have about half of its
rain between the hours of 2 p.
m. and 8 p. m.
Rainfall during June averaged
3 and a half inches however ii
was quite variable. Less than 2
inches were recorded at Green
wood and Scott. The heaviest
rains were generally in the
north Delta. Memphis reported
over 5 inches and Tunica over
6 inches.

Imperial Tenderloin will truly
honor Dad on his day. Give
Father his choice and chances
are he'll request beef. Any cut
of beef prepared in a favorite
way will please him. However,
this extra special beef tender
loin tells him you think he's a
wonderful guy.
The tenderloin may be a
whole or half, depending on the
number you plan to feed. This
is a Waste-free cut, so you need
plan on only "a pound per serv-
ing. Select a tenderloin Of a
lower grade because this meat
is tender, regardless of grade.
For roasting you want it fat
free. Strip the steak of all fat
and membrane and put it on a
rack in a roasting pan. Tuck
the small end under to give a
compact appearance.
For an elegant accompani-
ment for this superb roast,
serve mushroom caps in cara
way butter.

Simple pre- vacation garden

It pays to plant vegetables with

hot summer days. A thorough
soaking of lawn and gardens
before departing will help plants
survive dry spells. Trim hedges

This has recently been true in the field of

Put in its simplest terms, age no longer has

This change is not automatic, though most
major insurance companies offer it or their
