Discarded Street Car Market Being Sought SPOKANK. Wash.

It is planned to sell the bodies to resi dents of the Inland Kmplre, to be used for various purposes. Numerous inquiries have been received at the offices of the com pany recarding the cost and other details, and plans ore being for mulated to have u "sale" In the ruture.

Ileagerty, superin tendent of tint tllbway Sales j Agency, says that the Indian's contributions to curio collections such us beaded things, blanket, lace handkerchiefs ami miniature blrch-hark canoes, must be revo lutionized to further capitalize the modern white man's pas-don for novelties. , ... j The superintendent blames fash- ion alone for Iho complicated situation which the agency pro- muted by tlu. Kplscopal Diocese of I DulUth, now Is attempting to solve by teaching its Indian proteges that, lo continue in the bloodless J fight against the high cost of liv ing iney must cater to the fantas tic whims bestowed by custom up on their white neighbors. In ycurs past, according to Dr. Ileagerty, th0 Indian, or rather his squaw, found a ready market for the waste paper, baskets, work baskets, miniature canoes and other trinkets, which they made with their own hands, tint now fashion decrees that It Is no long er correct to have these curios in sight, around tho house, so sales have fallen to virtually nothing. OJlbway women also make ex quisite point luce handkerchiefs which formerly brought fancy prices, but custom holds that Ihey are no longer In style so these one time pop u lur ornaments go a-beg- jgtng, says the superintendent. "Another conflicting angle," Jr. Heugerty continues, "concerns the beudwork on bags, moccasins anil chains done by OJlbway women. The cost of glass now Is so high und the quality so Inferior that beud work cannot be done ut a profit. . "And the worst of all Iho In dian, deprived of his tribal cos tumes by the udvanee of civiliza tion, cannot understand ull of this. It is especially difficult for them to turn their talents to 'other channels." The problem was revealed to m fusion workers during the first year's operation of the Ojihway Hales Agency. This agency was established to-' help the ' rapidly diminishing ' tribesmen, to bridge the gulf between themselves and the white man clvlllzu't tin by effecting "an economic and moral reformation." The church would abolish the old trading posts, whereby the Indian received In exchange for lits offerings merely food, tobacco and the necessities of life, and would obtain cash for t heir product h riil.
