Unkind or bitter things we may regret?
When we have such a little time to stay
And after all the earth is passing fair,
And people passing kind.'J shall we not share
As best we may
Life's happier gifts, its blessings rich and rare
Rather than mourn, intoning all day long
Our doleful dirse that all days are no! bright
And doing all we can to mske things right.

SPRING
By Sally B. Castillo
I'm always very happy when the springtime comes around.
For it means that plants are waking from their long sleep in
the ground.
It means that birds will fly back home, and fill our hearts
with cheer,
And everything will start anew in the springtime of the year.
The tiny snowdrop lifts its head, and then the crocus fair
Puts forth its cup like blossoms, thty spring up everywhere,
And then the stately dafodil, dressed in its gown of yellow.
Comes forth to tell us it is Sprinir. he's such a cheerful
fellow.

SHOSHONES.
Ancient Friendship to Be
Scaled With Tribal Rites
Everlasting friendship between
the Union Pacific and the Sno
shone Indians is to be formally
established on the Fort Hall Indi
an reservation north of Pocatello,
Idaho on March 31 in an ancient
tribal ceremony of the Shoshones
which W to perpetuate forever
three generations of amicable re
lations between the two. Many
years ago when the infant Un
ion Pacific was being constructed
numerous Indian tribes resented
the invasion of the "iron horse"
and its attendant "talking wire"
into their hu-iting grounds, and
bitterly opposed its construction.
But not not the Shoshones.
Under the leadership of Chief
Ttr.doy, who was ruler of the
Shoshone nation when Lincoln
was president of tin U ited
States, this ti ine si.oweJ Bterling
?; friendship toward theerterf'ise.
They acted as guides for tngi
neering parties, as hunters to
supply meat, as scouts to locate
and forestall hostile attacks on
.'instruction crews, and when
such attacks occurred, they turn
eJ to and helped the U. P, men
fight tnem off.
This frienliners is a tradition
of the Shoshones and one of the
happier pages in the history of
building the Union Pacific. To
commemorate it forever, repre

NOTICE OF FINAL
SETTLMENT
( Nollie I beivby alvcii that the
ChiefTendoy HI, grandson of the '"'dVrii:iii h.iiii.iii.U(ii,aiJ.fount
famaus old warrior of General
Dodge's time, met on the Fott
HjII reservation to complete one
of the most rewarkable ceremo
ides on record between the red
men and the white.
Chief Tendoy Thi'd took the
first step in the ceremonial a year
ago, when PresidntGray happen
ed to be in Pocatello on March
31. 1926. Tendoy sent an emisary
to him bearing gifts from the Sho
shone nation. The gifts were a
war bow and four arrows, and
the b iw was decorated with two
eagle ftalherr.
These eagle feathers were the
really significant part of the gift,
and in profering them, Chief
Tendoy Third was following one
of the oldest traditions of his peo
pie, and acting under an Incian
custom that antedates theresi
dence of white men in the Uni
ted States.
By this token of two eagle,
he was proffering to President
Gray the everlasting friendship
of the Shosbonies for all time to
ccme. Unnder the terms of th
tribal custom, PresidntGray was
to keek both of the feathers for
tweive moons which was Tendoy's
wav of saying one year. Duting
this time he was to decide wheth
er he, in turn, desired the friend
ship to be everlasting, and if this
was his decision, one of the feath
ers was to be reltr.itd to Tendoy
He was to keep the ether as his
"copy" of the ag mint.
In recognition )' the custom
of the Shoshone, P:t sident Gra
delegated two mer. to return the
featrer to Tendi.y. Vincent H.
Hunterof Omaharrr:edthefealh

Both men will go to the Indian
reservation, where i hey will meet
Chief Tendoy ai d return the
feather to him at- an indication
that the Union Pacific desires
evirlasiing friendti ip with his
people.
Under the custrrrs of the In
dians, the chiefs r iu;n all the tri'
bal records, treali a and agree
ments, and theee ire handed on
from fa'herto sot, ns chief tan
ship is hereditary. The feather
returned to Tendoy l now a per
manent part of the iiihal records
of the Shoshones. The feather
kept by President Gray has been
