Paradoxically, this results in WIND WALKER being considered as a foreign film! How ridiculous! A work of art, written in America, made in America by Americans using a native American language, having American-English subtitles, a foreign film? W hat could be more American? Crow and Cheyenne ARE American languages! Does any other ethnic group in the world use these tongues? Un doubtedly not! What is going on in this situation any way? The earth is full of many wonderful miracles, such as the mountains, springs, stream s, waterfalls and forests. E.C.B. (. ongratulations! For all the work done by the students who made the first Q uarter Honor Roll. It must have taken a lot of hard work and effort to make Honor Roll. All the people here at Che mawa salute you. Keep up the great work!

I stayed awake watching their brightness and beauty. Then, in the eastern sky, I saw the red and yellow of the rising sun. The sky was fiery red in mile long streaks. Then the sun dogs appeared, blazing in golden beauty. As 1 watched the sunrise, 1 felt very small in God’s immense world. J.K .
