Work is in crayon and pencil, done outdoors in fair weather, inside the Museum on rainy days. At Wednesday’s program, Miss Mary Norris of the Museum staff will tell how Indians painted their faces for different activities, such as hunting, celebrating victories, prayer, and others, and will paint children’s faces to demonstrate the patterns. David Cassady will show how Indians who did not speak the same language could still communicate by means of signs. All children of school age are invited to join the folk dancing on Thursday, led by Mrs. John C. Tacoma, who will teach circle dances, square dances, and playparty games from American folklore and from Europe. A group of Girl Scouts in Serbian costume will perform a dance of that country, one they learned in a Museum badge class last fall. Friday’s program will be a display of live animals in a truck parked on Museum grounds and provided by the Fish and Game Division of the Indiana Conservation Department. Thomas J. Childers will tell the viewers about the feeding, hunting, and nesting habits of the small animals, including such Indiana natives as possum, raccoon, fox, bobcat, and others.
