decided to consolidate the five former administrative agencies, both Arizona and New Mexico fought to obtain the main headquarters. However, Gallup, N. M., receives most of the employe’s business because it is only 27 miles away. Holbrook, nearest Arizona community. is 106 miles southwest. Every day is a busy day for residents of the community. Officials and employes of the Indian Service, Emergency Conservation Service units cope daily with the social and economic problems of , the government’s wards. “White Father” Active The red man’s “great white father,” E. R. Fryer, confers daily with them regarding lands, education, health, farming, tribal affairs, jobs or relief. The Rev. J. R. Helms, Episcoual rector of the Ft. Defiance Indian orphanage, conducts Protestant

church services and Sunday school i In the public school building. Cath- ■ olic services are held at nearby St. Michaels, one of the oldest mis-; i sions on the reservation. Apache county provides- common school facilities where 45 pupils attended last year. One, student was graduated In June' i with full exercises and the entire j populace in attendance. Recently, the squaw dance, or "sing" season, was held to give the timid, unmarried women of the Navajo tribe their annual chance to dance with men of their choice and to exchange gossip with seldom-seen neighbors. They danced to the music of weird voices i and the rhythmic thumping of tomtoms. “Squaw Dances" Held Squaw’ dances are held almost nightly somewhere on the reservation. The girls, heavily-bedeck-ed with brilliant jewels and wrapped in gaily-colored blankets, dance far into the night. Their debuts i take place in a circle of crackling ' camfires. Their partners come by invitation’ from far distances on horseback and in "thunder wagons.” When an Indian buck refuses to dance, his hostess, by custom, snatches his hat, hurls it away and then chases him through the brush as he runs to retrieve it. As an alternative, he may pay her a few coins. The squaw dance is a purification ceremony performed for three days and nights under the direction of a medicine man attending a sick person. It gradually has de- * veloped into the outstanding social ’- event on the reservation. White 1 tourists are welcomed and often' t are asked to dance. i. !
