EVEN THE INDIAN
The American Indian has long been famous for his tribal dances. They have lent color to the history and face of his race; he inspired him in time of stress; and have aroused him to greater effort.
The Indian tribes in Lawrence for the Pow wan will hold a contest of these tribal dances this evening at Haskell. A dance for old men will open the program. Lacer the Black-foot, Oanges, Pawnies and the rest will present their traditional dances. During the course of one evening the white man will be given an opportunity to see the Rainbow dance of the Navajo, the Eagle dance of the Potawatomi, and the war dance of the Sioux.
The curious fact is that the entertainment will close with a Charleston contest. Stair odors will be shocked, no doubt, at the contortions of their children. Not even the primitive Indian seems to have escaped this gonocentic dance of the pale舞, Jazz has invaded the precincts of the riflemen and is recognized to the extent that it finds its place on a native program. Truly has the last hurie fallen.
POW-WOWS AND BOW-WOWS
It is not at all surprising that a carnival should plant itself by Hassell's front gate while the Indians have their national pow-wow. But it is deployable. Sometimes contracts are so arranged that the values of each factor involved are accentuated. In this instance, however, the grendel and historic significance of the pow-wow is clouded by the uncomely aspect of the carnival.
The Indian celebration itself is one of the most interesting events ever held at Lawrence. Probably the town has never had a larger gathering of hundred per cent Americans. The assembly represents the remnant of a vanishing race, rich in tradition and picturequeen in history. Its traditions are genuine, for they are an outgrowth of its folkways rather than the product of executive bodies. The eyes of the red man are turned to the past for it is more colorful than his future. The intrusion of the alien culture has destroyed much of the glamour of former years, but he has maintained enough of his native culture to present his appearing wholly artificial.
To one coming from the Indian celebration, the carnival is a forbidding spectacle; Dirty tents gaudily painted to advertise the fakes within—garied display of cheap gumcream—blowy faced youngsters guzzling pop—pierced abrats from thrill-hunkers on the whip and the Ferris wheel—an emu nymph with rancous voice, varnously chewing gum, and coaxing the vable to win a kevie doll—dissonant sound of a calliope—a human scarceur shouting for the obese Tesla Ton, the female balloon tire—general hullaballah of rival balkyhooops—such is the carnival perpetrated by civilized man in front of the Indian celebration.
This outrage of civilization erected in the front yard of the Indian village is particularly offensive. It is almost notions as closing a fine arts convention with a pep rally.
THE NEW AMENDMENT
The voters of Kansas who go to do mills next Tuesday will have an opportunity to decide whether the members of the state legislature shall be paid a living wage or not.
The new amendment that is to be voted on will increase their salary from $3 to $8 a day and reduce mileage allowance from 15 cents to 5 cents a mile.
There is little or no doubt as to the fate of the amendment. Everyone knows that the cost of living in Topeka or any other city today, far exceeds $3 and it is hardly in accord with the principles of democracy to limit the personnel of this body to those who can afford to pay for the privilege.
Today, $8 is a bare daily sustenance and there is little reason to believe that the increase will tend to draw the job hunting man. On the other hand, there are a great many citizens of Kansas, ably qualified for the position, but not in a financial position to take it as long as they must pay for the privilege.
It was undoubtedly the iden of those who drew up the constitution to make the salary too low to be attractive, but $3 a day was then deemed a living wage.
Queen Marie will take farmers and her wives into her private car as her rain passes through North Dakota on er tour of the United States. How easy kind of her Majesty!
Not until government officials are paid attractive salaries will efficient men be attracted and the encouragement for decoration be removed.
Hiawatha
The life of Hiawatha as presented by the students of Haskell at the Haskell stadium just night was a beautiful and impressive performance. The chanting of the Indian maidens, the bobbing war bonnetes of the chieffisher and the hollow tumtum of the drums against a background of dusky cedars and wigwams furnished a picturesuited setting for the hero, Hiawatha.
The growth of Hawaii from a babe, rocked by the old and bent Nokomis, to a man who fatted and wrestled with the spirit of corn. Monkey, in his people might have food was additionally portrayed by Charlie Grounds
The commanding and majestic figure of Mudciewicke, the West Wind, was hardly more impressive than that of his angry and reverenceful son, Hiawatha, who tried to kill him because of his cruel desertion of the youth's mother, Wenonah. But at the borges of the arrow maker of the Diaotachs where Hiawatha found Minnehaha the menion of his dreams, who was to come with her and the moonlight and the sunshine and the waltah softened from the savages, reverent youth to a young and ardent lover.
All through the play the dramatic figure of Hiawatha was contrasted with the old and wise Nokomis. She pleaded with him, she encouraged him and inbred for him so that he might become a greater chief and so take care of her. Her appearance was watched over Minneaha and comforted her when Hiawatha was gone. The role of Nokomis as played by Callie Crow was by far the finest acting in the play. Her stage presence was very good and her voice as it was from land speakers was rich in detail. Amelia Skye gave a sympathetic interpretation of the Indian maid beloved of Hiawatha. She had but few lines to speak, but always she was in evidence by his side and in his thoughts from the time she left the village where she lived the land of the Dacota and followed the land of the Oblijways. Her greatest piece of acting was her dramatic death, facing the ghosts of famine and fever and calling for Hiawatha as he hunted in the cold and dreary forest to find her food so that she
The most poignant scene in the entire play was the death of Minnesota. The acting of Nokomis, her realistic description of the effects of the fierce cold winter on the tribes, her soothing words to the delirious Minneapolis and their sorrow in her death while she is realistic and dramatic in their appeal.
The final scenes of the play show Hiwanna, saddened, older, wiser, leaving his tribe in the guiding hands of the joust priest, his guest, while he encounters in the Land of the Heroes the laughing Minneapolis awaits him.
The other actors in the play, the ghosts and guides were all well cast

Why We Behave Like Human Being, by George A. Dorsey, Ph.D, D.L. L. 481 pages, $2.50. New York; Harper's, 1925.
On one point, however, the evidence he finds leads this writer to a positive conclusion. That "myth" rightly fights back against the view that fact of human anatomy or physiology which implies that capacity for culture or civilization or intelligence inimes in this race or that type," says J.B. Kelley, an academic magister with Nora's supremacy.
Doctor Dorsey, who is curator of anthropology in the Field Museum of Natural History, has written a text, *The Anthropology of Nature*, and age had its modes, museums, habit, opinions, names, customs, taboo, and its written and unwritten codes of behavior*. So far, textbook. Then, "Mohammed born on Beacon Street," he wrote, would come an Unitarism. Plus! Nor has Dorsey abandoned his science to become a stylist. He has simply picked his illustrations from the experience.
"We behave like human beings because we are human beings," is the only answer the reader can find to the question implicit in the title of Doctor Dewey's book. That, however, is not saying the book is a failure. From Farr.
With biology as the basis of his interpretation of you and I, Doctor Doy se envries at the conclusion that the Golden Riku is the supreme guide for human conduct, yet he now tries to "reconcile science and religion." His conclusions are always based on the evidence.
In spite of the popularity achieved by his book, Doctor Doxyne never fails to do人格, the pitfall of many a gregorian scholar. He later ferreer the author pummels the glad fakes and presents the possibilities involved in study of the endocrine reactions. He is as ready to admit what he has learned as he is to attack the false psychic.
AGNES M. BRADY
To say that here is a book well worth reading is unnecessary. Its list of reprintings shows that the American public already knows that. Therefore no better conclusion for this book is to emphasize the quotation from the book itself. The author's method and viewpoint are implicit in it. He says, "To bolster up racial prejudice or a Nordic or a Puritan complex by false and misleading inferences drawn from 'intellectual' sources," and ethnology is to throw away science and fall back on the mentality of primitive savagery"—G. F. C.
Evolution, of course, forms the whole groundwork of the book. The human embryo is formed by the formation of man as seen in the human embryo. The hale is born, acquires human behavior, and is seen behaving humanly. It becomes you, or I, a man.
Nowhere, however, does Doctor Dorey treat evolution as anything but a hypothesis. He is careful to say that "we shall know how life evolved when we can evolve life. That day may also come; it is yet a long way off."

Campus Opinion
Editor Daily Kansas:
It is my desire to correct all wrong impression any one may have concerning the success of the broadcast at the University of Krasna, KFKU.
The wave length of the station is low for the simple reason that it is the desire of the authorities to give them the wave length to the same as the wave length that we have and that is no less than they deserve. If the station increases its

Sad, is it not, that the Hassell authority authors are weeping over the friendly competition of a carnival that has been so hard to justify that it clearly understood that Hassell had nothing to do with bringing the carnival company to the Indian celebration and that "it is clear that many Indians here are for the pop war."
To the casual observer it appears that the whole Indian conference has been packed. Parking space on the Haskell X. M. C.A. ground is for 20 cars at a time, and there are no parking spaces B1, and the football game $2.50. No charge is made for looking at the Haskell authorities evidently did have something to do. Would it not have been a more social situation if they had furnished free parking space, to charge a fair price for Hinwatha and an Indian dances free of charges—I. R.
