By Lenora Starr
Prompted by the concerns of
several Warm Springs elders in 1982,
Carol Allison became motivated to
sponsor the first Lil' Miss Warm
Springs pageant. The primary
concerns the elders stated were that
our young ones were coming home
from pow-wow events with regalia,
such as the popular Jingle Dresses,
and they didn't want them to forget
our ways of dress. The event became
a forum in which to expose the
young girls to the traditional social
dances, songs and regalia of the
Warm Springs, Wasco and Paiutes.
Although it started out to be a one
time event, the popularity of the
Making peanut butter and jelly sandwhiches are so easy to make even a blindfolded person can
make them. The exercise for these 4-H cooking students is not a lesson on how to make the
sandwhiches, rather it is a lesson on giving concise instructions.
By Lenora Starr
The 4-H Cooking Extravaganza
which began October 20,1999 is
held in Carol's room at the Warm
Springs Community Wellness
Center on Wednesday ' s after school
from 3:30 p.m. until class is
completed. The exception is
November 24, 1999 which is the
Thanksgiving Holiday. The classes
will continue until December 8,
1999.

to come in and teach oral history or
some unique skill, Carol says
everyone is welcome.
Dance practices for the boys and
girls are held every Wednesday
evening in Carol's Room at the
Community Wellness Center.
According to Carol, the reason the
event is held at the Community
Wellness Center and not at any of the
longhouses is for the convenience of
the families of the girls who are
seeking the titles to be able to freely
participate without having to do a
"new dancers joiners ceremony".
The girls and boys will be doing
traditional social dances and will be
judged on their knowledge of those
dances and not pow-wow dances.

for January 25,
In an attempt to ensure fairness in
judging to the girls, each girl is to
dress in a wing dress. Buckskin and
shell dresses are being discouraged,
only to be fair to those families who
might not be able to afford such
dresses. The primary reason for the
pageant is not for the competition
of the titles but mainly for to get the
boys and girls to become aware of
our culture. Every effort will be made
toensure the girls are judged equally.
Each of the present Little Miss
Warm Springs had been given
various opportunities to learn for the
duration oftheir reign. Carol offered
an example: "We had lost one of our
girls in a terrible car accident and the
girls learned the process of doing a
memorial for her." The girls also
learned how to do a Salmon bake up
at Kah-nee-ta. They did the entire
