Practically everything but the brick and mortar was removed by the government after Bushnell closed down. When the school administrators arrived they found huge buildings spooky as Carlsbad Caverns at midnight and empty as a whiskey bottle at a moonshiners convention. On the grounds the grass had lost the battle with drought and weeds and the campus was taking on the appearance of an Arizona desert. Now five hundred kids are comfortably stowed away in roomy apartments, equipped with all the necessities and many of the luxuries of the white man. Dozens of school rooms are alive with shiny eyed students intent on getting some book learning, and the long corridors reverberate to the healthy happy laugh and talk of the students. ' This has all been accomplished in spite qf the fact that in October of last year operating appropriations for the school had not yet been received because of late action by congress; in spite'of the fact they could not go to the Civil Service Commission and ask for registers from which to make offers of employment ; and in spite of the fact in the absence of much of the staff had to be postponed. These delays meant extra work on the skeleton staff in the ordering of equipment, in working out color schemes and other details with the construction division, in ordering supplies, in preparing job description outlines to guide the Indian office and Civil Service commission, and a mountain of i Hang around, folks.

Youre in In a news story, the lead is the first sentence or first paragraph. The chin lead isn't a new type of lead, in this sense of the word. It need not lead the story. In can be buried deep, clear down in the paragraph. It can be used in a novel, or an essay, or a short story, or any type of writing which doesnt have an ordnary lead pre-planni- ng . next-to-la- st at all. The boys who write text books, from now on, can worry about a concise definition. Ive got plenty of time and plenty of space, so Ill just go on defining the, chin lead as long, as I wish. My only responsibility is to make clear what Im talking about. other details. The first delegation of teachers, matrons, nurses, janitors, and other workers arrived after New Years just a few days ahead of the children. Carloads of equipment, foodstuffs and other basic supplies had to be placed at points for use just before and during the arrival of the children. Some of it is still going on. Because of the unusual determination of the skeleton staff there since last summer the school was opened on schedule. ' Evident in all personnel working at the school with the youngsters is the intense desire they have to do something for them, and deep satisfaction they have in their work. Their enthusiasm must have been the motivating power that overcame the tremendous obstacles in their path. All of the problems were not worked out with the opening of the school. Accommodations for an additional 1500 children have to be complete by next fall. New school buildings, dormitories, a gym and an auditorium must be built, and other buildings must be renovated. When the school opened a deluge of reporters, photographers and the curious came to the school. They were all received graciously and courteously by the personnel at the school and went away with the best of opinions of the eager young students and of the The chin lead is, where the writer, or a character in his story, puts his neck out, or, in other words, leads with his chin. - The chin lead is where the writer plays straight man for the reader, feeds him a gag line, sets one up for him. Its a fine device, one that will grow in popularity so rapidly that before too long it will become trite. It not only lets the reader into the act, it makes him the star.
