Occasionally a traveler will buy soimcriple atrocity from one of these Million Indiana, but by the time the end of the journey has been ri'iiched, the hhleoua "souvenir of the Southwest" la discarded aa the ugly and useless thing It la. According to Dr. lidgar L llewett, that Is the source of the irealent Ideas about the southwestern Indian and Ida country. Doctor llewett should know; he la director of ttie School of Atnericuh llesearch, nnd un ethnologist and arche We would ologist second lo none In America. not Judge the undent Hebrews hy the ghetto, or the Anglo Saxons hy the down'aud out era of the city alquis, he. says In Ancient Life In the American Southwest, published recently hy Hie company. "Many have no other Impression of the Indian und Judge the ruee therefrom. A striking Inconsistency of people generally la thnt while they eynslder the modem Indian dirty, greasy, and altogether undesirable to tune about, they read with' avidity new a stories about hurled "cities," accept with complacency the theories of their enormous anthiulty: millions of years old," nnd believe everything startling about ancient Indian's that appears In print, as If nnd this. In deed. Is sometimes averred the modern Indians are- an entirely separate race from the people whose hatxllvvoik evokes the astonishing stories. Doctor llewett fin (ft this tendency strange, yet widespread. "It la necssary to repent again nnd again." he says, that nil native American remains, whether of plains trtlws. mound builders, Pueblo, Navnho, Toltec. Ar.tec. Maya, "Inca are Just the works of the Indian. Plain notion and romantic arrheotogy." he addsr"hne a Ann hold on the reading public. Well, taking It for granted thnt Doctor Hewlett's statement Is true, what then? It docs seem to believe such nolde monuments as Pueblo llonlto or Mesa Verde to he the work of dull creuturcs.llke those win Infest the tourist areas. To realize Just how this can be. we must go hack to the beginning of tilings very when." us the Indians say not millions of years, nor even hundreds of thousands, hut back only a little further, than our Year One. During the compara tlvely short time of' a thousand yearsrUie southwestern Indians were developing agrlcultu and making baskets and pottery starting rather erudely, no doubt, but because they were an Intelligent and adaptable race, advancing us rapidly as conditions permlttipl. Enemy races, such as have changed Europe from time Immemorial, did not exist to bother them.

In the comparatively unattractive .Mimbres valley, what iMotnr llewett calls the most curious and In some ways the most Inteiest'ug cultural development of the Pueblo plateau' came Into being. This does not refer to striking architecture, for nowhere else did the pH village appear to he. In such exclusive favor." and only mounds of earth, with never a standing wall, mark the sites of Mimhrcno villages. The (tottery from these ruins, however. Is In a class of Its own. Not for shape or color, or even for geometrical design (although some of these decorative patterns are hailed as the most arils tic and harmonious of Pueldo geometric designs), hut. as Doctor llewett says, somewhere along the line of development a caprice struck the artists of the .Mimbres. They look to life forms of the most striking kind and develop'd the most mar velous system that I know of among pilmltlve potters of t lie world.' In the use of life motifs, they exhibited a play of tnney that belongs only one-thir- d e s . . . to . America Indian religion, once abhorred us a pagan belief connected with Idolatry and (al though ttre devil Is not an Indian deity), has he conn the ohjqct nf study of some of our greatest thinkers. Death, to us the great mystery, was of Utile consequence to these red philosophers. The body, when It was no) longer animated, was as useless as a broken howl, and ns valueless. The soul lived on It was only this that mattered. Doctor llewett points out the beauty of this Idea, as contrasted to the funerals, ton.hs and other gloomy beliefs of our own rice. Nowhere Is this plainer than In the dances and songs, where parts of Hie routine, and certain words, have no meaning to the modern Indians. The dances, although performed ns religious cere monies, are of considerable mundane Interest to white visitors, who shudder at the , laugh a, the Koshare (who are nor Tutemled to he funny), and profess to find "off color" meanings In various ceremonial actions, whereas an Indian would he greatly sea ndf Hired j at some of our own dames -- which have no thought of religion behind devil-vvorliI- .

Thp perfedly ordered community wa the aim and end nnd agency of government, nnd there organization slopped." I Motor llewett tells us. The Kuropenn state, "organized by force, maintained by force, depending upon force for Its existence." was entirely unthought of; the Indian mind could not conceive it. Miniature golf, vest pocket cam eras, and all the other tiny replicas of Idg things, have their day, hut it repinlned for the Pueblos to evolve "miniature republics.", which persist ""to this very yet." livery village was Independent of the others. They united sometimes In common causes, hut Hie league of nations" Idea did not appeal to them. The Pueblos were highly Individual; "let the others keep to themselves.
