GEO. MASON'S TRIP
Seattle, July 1928.
Editor A4vance-Times;
I told you some time ago that the
Exhibition in Calgary was` in order, so
I tookit in and had my peanuts on
the grand stand, but I missed niy pop-
corn, hot dogs seem to have taken
the place. This show is designed to
be the best in the West. For one
reason they make a specialty of live
stock, the country being well adapted
to the raising of the very best of all
kinds. ' "-Un this occasion they are
"tickledto death on a
ccount of
many
thousands attending above any pre-
vious years. The main feature to sue
was the "Stampede" which seems to

should say it is pretty much "Indian"
as they :turn out in large numbers
from the different reservations throu-
'ghout the country for many miles,
the tribes practically have the free -
dons of the city. They tell me the
riders go into the stores on horse-
back; the squaws sleep anywhere on
the street with their papooses—and
dogs. According to printed programs
there were twenty-five events, which
I would not care . to enumerate.. I
do say it was certainly well carried

there were bucking Broncos, the one

so on. Another stunt was lassoing

pants, gloves and sweater and that
was not enough, for next morning, on
the public street, the Indians in great

in feathers, beads and full regalia
formed around our King's Represent-
ative and made hirn a full-blooded
Indian Chief; sowe,are ruled by an'

Now. I wish all my citizens could
