Only best grade materials should be used today to sate:
a home. A home builder cannot be a construction

— art. He cannot season the wood. no cannot even know
at the distinction between well seasoned wood and well

jlmrncd brick. He has no way of testing

the cement to see if

:it is of the best quality. If his home is in the hands of an
forchitect he is doubly insured against disappointment, but if
rho does not employ an architect his best protection will lie .
nil the use of materials that are Well-know. If a manufac.
:turer' thinks enough of his material or fixture or acces-
sory to stamp his name upon it and to supply you'with a
guarantee that it will give you the performance that you have

- . a right to expect, in other words, if the manufacturer backs

up his advertising and his selling talk, you may use his mn- '

terial with confidence. We sell such materials.

Chief Red Wing and
Wife in Tribal Re-
galia Lead ‘Big‘ Rit-
ualistic Celebration

I

STAMFORD, May 19.—

Hundreds of persons from this
section witnessed the solemn Indian
rites in the old Indian burial ground
off the Post Road It Cos Cob Sat-
urday afternoon at the ouppdsed
grave of Chief Kosca. Koba. once
chlciiian of all Connecticut.

The celebration commenoratlng
the life and deeds of the chleftaln
who lived in Revolutionary times
had its local aspect in that a pro-
ccsslon of mounted men In full trib-
al regalla passed through the busi-
ness section of Stamford shortly
after 4 o’clock Saturday afternoon.

The procession formed at the club
house of Gun: Tribe. No. 41. Im-
proved Order of Red Men. in \Villow
Street, and passed up Atlantic Street
to Atlantic Square and out West
Main Street on the way to Cos Cob.
Firct came motorcycle officers of
the Stamford Police Department.
Then came the American flag car-
ried by George Webb of One: Tribc
as color bearer.

Chief Red Wing. who was in
charge of the ritualistic celebration.
and his wife, both in Indian dress.
came next. In another-group were
the ofliccrs and degree team of Onax
Tribe. All of the men in the pro-
cession were mounted and in full
Indian rcgalia. These were: Pro-
phet. \V. \V. Bennett; Sanaps. John
Merritt and Henry “'arncr: Sachem.
John Streeicr: Senior Sagamorc.
Gus Ilcffner; Junior Sagamore.
George Snow. These were followed
by the warriors and braves who
form the rest of the Onax Tribe
degree lean. Over 100 members of
Onax Tribe went to Cos Cob in auto-
mobiles.

At the scene of the ceremonies
the local Red Men were met by
large delegations from linens Tribe
of Nor-walk. Ponus Tribe of New
Canaan, Muyn Mayano Tribe of
Greenwich and the ladies of the De-
gree of Pocohantns of Man Mayano
Tribe.

Taking part in the ceremonies
were about thirty Indians who came
from reservations in Mnino and
Massachusetts who made special
trips to Cos Cob for the event. As
the ceremony was one of the most
important Indian celebrations in the
country in recent years Indians
from many sections of the country
were planning to attend. A large
delegation from the White Earth
Reservation in Minnesota. homo ro-
scrvaiion of Chief Red Skin. was
scheduled to take part but the men
were unable to attend because of the
difficulty of obtaining permits to
leave the reservation which have to
be issued from Washington.

Among the Indian dignitaries who
took part were Trocklan. a grandson
of Chief Kosca Koba, and five chiefs
from the reservations represented.
Following the Indian custom of not
allowing any person taking part in
a burial service we!" to the place
of the ceremony all of those taking
any active part were mounted on
horses.

The ceremonie- gone through be-
fore a. crowd of fully 500 white men
brought in rituals which weFe prac-
ticed long before the first white man
set foot on the shores of America
and which have been handed down
from generation to generation in
practically their original form.

A brief prayer was offered by Rev.
Andrew J. Martin of the Greenwich
Methodist Episcopal Church. Dr.
Martin also told briefly of the his-
torical background of the event.

The visiting Indians were officially
welcomed to the Town of Greenwich
by First Selectman 0. D. Tuthlll.
Mr. Tuihlll called attention to the
efforts of Chief Red Wing who is
travelling in all parts of this coun-
try and doing great good in the
compiling and saving of the records
of the Indians. In said that this
work is being done by Chief Red
\Vlng without financial remuneration
of any kind.

Following a. request of Trocklan.
grandson of Chief Kosca Kobe. Chief
Red Wing, together with his wife.
Winona, has been in this section for
the last five months to locate the
grave of the former great chieftan.
Witnum aid of a map furnished by
Trocklan the grave was finally lo-
cated and Chief Red Wing spared
no effort with the result that the
grave was restored and protected
from further desecration. It'lwas
found that a. telephone pole was
planted in the middle of the grave
of the dead chief and this was re-
moved. Tho death of Chief Kosca.
Kobe. was supposed to have occurred
about 1770 when. legend has it. he
and sixteen other Indians Were shot
down from'nmbush on land which is
not the Ernest Thompson Seton es-
tate in Greenwich.

With the approach of the band of
Indus, all mounted, the ceremonies
began at the ancient burial ground.
As they approached the gravo‘from
the out they dismounted one by one
and gradually formed a wide circle.
Then Chief Red Wlng plunged into
the ground in the center of the circle
a. spear adorned with feathers. Fol-
‘lowing this, 317001! fire was built in
the center of ,tho cl e. near the‘
'pway from'ft

serum which is said to give promise
of. revolutionizing the method of
treating deal-let fever has been tried
out with "very favorable" results in
eighteen cases at the Sydenham Hos-

The new curative is being devel-
oped by' Dr. Alphonso Raymond
Dozhes. an , associate professor of
med lne at Columbia Unlverslty.
and in successful use has also been
reported by hospitals in New York,

Dr. Byrckhedd Macgowan, super-

SECOND TIME

New Haven Man Lost
Beverage b y Same
Method Several
Weeks Ago

__.._.._—
GREENWICH. MaY. 19.

Beer parties are becoming as com-
mon in Greenwich as tea-parties in
Greenwich Village.
drinking of beer is especially preva-
lcnt in that village. but the second
and third beer parties in as many
weeks wherein 130 kegs were con-
signed to the newer. took place
Saturday afternoon. *

About two weeks ago Joseph
Taylor of New Haven was fined
$200 and costs by Judge Mead in
the Borough Court for transporting
lnloxlcatlngellquor without a. per-
mit. and 136 kegs of beer found on
his truck were consigned to the
sewer. -

day by State Officer Streaman. llc
was driving ono'truckload of beer.
and with him were arrested W'ard
Beater and Eu'geno GOIHM. W110
were driving another truck loaded
with beer.

Since it was Taylor’s second of-
fence wlfhln a short time. he was
fined $400 and costs and sentenced
to thirty days in jail. Appeal was
not taken. In the cases of Beater
and Gollinl tho sentences were
lighter: the men being fined $200
and $100 and costs. respectively, and
sentenced to fifteen days in Jail.

Judge Mead suspended the jail
sentences of Bentcr and Golllnl.
when they signed 'Waivcrl on the
beer. which, with the beer seized on
Taylor's truck. was poured into the
sewer near the Greenwich High
School.‘

As the men knocked the bungs
out of the kegs and the beer spuri-
ed forth, crowds of interested
spectators gathered to watch the
process. which. Judging by the
rapidity with which the stale po-
lice are coralling beer-runners in
Greenwich. will soon lose its
novelty there.

For hours after burial of John
Barleycorn Saturday. the odor of
beer premcated the atmosphere. It
is getting to be a regular thing
nowadays. but Mr. Joaeph Taylor is
in a. place where he will not trans-
port. another truck load for any
other month at least.

It is understood that the seized
beer comes from New York. and
is consigned to a. point in New
Haven. From his activities to date
Taylor appears to be operating-on
a rather high scale as a beer mag—
nale.

Slate Policeman Sirenmen. who
made both of the beer arrests. is
a member of the “Flying Squadron."
under Sergeant “'alter Lynchan,
which is operating in Fairflcld
County for an indefinite period of
time. They have had great suc-
cons so for in nabbing liquor law vlo-
later: and those who transgrcss the
motor vehicle regulations.
