Tho ritual was witnessed by a party of Oklahoma City physicians and nurses who visited the encampment | ot “Arapahoes, who were being visited by the Comanches, Cheyennes and Kio- was, during a study of skin diseases of the Indians being prepared for.the United States Public Health service. A member of the tribe and a lectur- er on Indian folk lore for a national museum was present and explained much of the ritual to Dr. Everett S. Lain and to Dr. Claude B. Norris, leaders of the party. Six white persons in all witnessed the ceremony. More than 2,000 Indians in all, were present. In preparation for 'the Offering Dance also called the “Willows dance’ a huge lodge was constructed about 75 feet in diameter. It took several days to complete the lodgp, according to members of the tribe, as each pole going into its con- struction was blessed separately by tribal priests. Guard lines were thrown out by the Indians so that no uninvited eye could witness their ceremony. Clever Warden, the lecturer, said the foundation for the order extends 80 far back that, according to tribal interpreters, the ‘“moons which have elapsed since that time have gone from the memory even of tradition, and the tradition and legend extend back hundreds of seasons.” Candidates for initiation may make application to join, after they have committed Some extraordinary brave act; have been fearless in leadership, renowned in politics of the tribe, ar in some way distinguished themsélves greatly, the interpreters told the phy- sicians.

Directly east of the center pole an altar fire, or sacred fire, as it was called was kindled. * Half a dozen warriors beat rythm- ically on a tomtom during the dance. The candidates first fasted for two days and then offerings for the Great Spirit were brought in by the candi- dates, who placed them within the sacrifice grounds and stoopir® thrust a buffalo tooth into the ground. The warrior who followed had to locaté the || tooth, and re-thrust it into the ground. ‘Then the feast of the year was brought in. The candidates, however, did not participate. Standing, they extended their feet so that the soles touched live coals. Without making any outcry the can- didates in this position submitted to the painting of their bodies by the priests. They were allowed to choose the color with’ which they were painted, according to the tribe’'s interpreter. It they chose white, it was taken to mean they would continue the cere- mony as long as they were able with- out complete physical exhaustion, If, however, they chose yellow, it was ex- plained, the warrior had pledged to continue the ceremony to the end, thoush he should endanger his life by so0_doing. It was explained by the interpreters that through the entire ceremony the wives of all married candidates had been enduring their fasts and tests, behind a flap in the rear of the lodge. They were kept hidden from the ini- tiated, however, until .the conclusion of the ceremony. The beating of the tom-tom rose and became a roar and the dance was be- gun. For forty-eight hours they danced. Those who endured, won the degree. Those who did not have the privilege of trying again the following year, it was explained. This dance often is confused with the sun dance, which has been pro- hibited by the federal government, but 18 not akin to the sun dance. Soon after the final dance, the tepees were dismantled and the caravans of Indians departed over the Oklahoma plains. * CHINESE ENVOY HERE Head of Armament Conference Dele- gation Now in New York.
