Houck spoke on southern Oregon Indians at the last meeting of Crater Lake chapter, Daughters of the Amer ican Revolution, held at the home of Mrs. Glen O. Taylor. Mrs. Houck stated that the In dians of Oregon, as well as many of the major tribes of the Pacific coast, were associated with lesser groups whose tribal customs and languages were similar. The Indians usually lived in villages during the win ter, but roamed over wider ter ritory during the summer. The men hunted, and women gath ered wild berries, fruits and roots to be cured for use in the winter; they also cured meat and fish which the men pro vided. Tribal history was handed down in legends, and many times it was more legendary than fact, she stated. Their musical instruments were very primitive and their singing was in monotone. Music in keeping with the program was given by a trio, Edward C. Root, violinist, Del mar Myers, flutist and A. C. Manter, pianist. Assisting Mrs. Taylor were Mrs. V. J. Bolton, Mrs. M. M.
