Show Conference . . . ' Indian Woman Talks Throughout the session talks were given by several local members, mem-bers, but probably the one which aroused the thoughts of the listeners listen-ers the most was, .the one given by June Drye, an Indian investigator. investiga-tor. She remarked that "you people peo-ple preach that we are the same flesh and blood, yet your children stare and say, 'there goes an Indian' In-dian' when we walk down the street. Why?" Mrs. Drye then stated stat-ed her belief in the prophet Joseph Jo-seph Smith, and expressed an earnest ear-nest desire to learn more of him and more of his church. The song, "We Thank Thee O God For a Prophet" was sung by Mrs. Drye and her companion, Ar-villa Ar-villa Cheelster. President Moody and President Henderson each took a few minutes min-utes time in which they urged the people to retain the spirit of humility, hu-mility, to "be teachable," and live the gospel from day to day. Merlin Sampson, recently returned return-ed missionary from the California Mission, and- Jay Nielson of the High Council who is in charge of the ward teachers, both spoke in the morning session. Also among the speakers of the day were Willard Stephenson and Verdell R. Bishop, recently appoint ed members of the High Council of the Stake.
