MANY literary critics call Ml|tha Ostenso the most brilliant of the young American woman novelists.

FOR fifty*=one years, the death of (Gen. George A. Custer has been a mystery. We’ve heard and read about “The Custer Massacre” —the Battle of the Little Big Horn, in Montana, in 1876—but no two stories agreed, and always there was a veil between us and the details. 1 Offe Story we never had, however. That was the story df the'lfidians who annihilated that gallant band of cavalrymen. * For fifty-one years the Sioux who fought under Sitting BullJiave kept silent., Novo they,have told.

They would not have opened their lips to any white man. They did to a member of their own race, Chief Buffalo Child Long Lance, that amazing full-blood Blackfoot who is becoming one of the keenest writers and lecturers of the day, a former, Indian who won distinction as a captain of Canadian troops in France. They opened their hearts and their lips to him. In a windswept lodge in Manitoba in the strangest Indian Council he ever knew, he heard their story—a story infinitely more dramatic than any ever, told Jbef ore of the death of Custer. ' .

Shaneberger was president. “But I’m not going to make any moves unless the new board orders a change,” declared Lingenfelter. He would not state what sections were unsatisfactory. Board Head Silent Virgil Vandagrlfft, board president, was noncommital on the report. “We haven't gotten to that yet," said Vandagrlfft. Lingenfelter has delayed a preliminary order recommending the type of paving material on four principal streets for two weeks.

Chief Long Lance wanted to give the story to Americans. But through what channel? He chose Cosmopolitan, because he was convinced that there he would find more alertly intelligent readers than in any other publication in the land.
