had put out the fire and snapped the pad lock on the hogan door, started quietly down the hill together. As they walked, a strange misgiving chilled Slender Boy’s heart, and he felt only a sickening coldness rather than sur prise when they stopped at Nazbah’s hogan and, entering, found her lying on a sheep skin, her face hot with the burning fever, her lovely eyes brilliant but glossy, and her hair, usually so smooth and shiny, hanging matted and uncared for. Find the age of Methuselah. Add to this the number of years that David reign ed over Israel. Subtract the number of lepers who failed to return to the Lord Jesus to give thanks for their healing. Divide the result by the weight o f the spices which Nicodemus brought to pre pare the body o f the Lord Jesus for burial. Find the book in the New Testament which corresponds to the answer obtained. Now take this figure and subtract from it the number of books known as the Gospels, and the answer will be a chapter in this book with twenty-four verses. Memorize the first two verses o f this chapter. New K. Y. B. C.

their winter hogan which was only about half a mile away. He would see her then, and there would be more happy days herd ing sheep. Indian summer was visiting the hills, and the days that followed were warm and bright. The evening hours of those days. Slender Boy spent with his uncle by the hogan fire, learning the mysteries of the medicine man’s art—how to use the sacred yellow corn pollen; how to make the magic sand paintings; what prayers to sing for different sicknesses. Each prayer had to be perfectly learned, for one word left out or changed would spoil it all, and the whole ceremony would have to be gone over. As he learned those prayers, with hours o f tiresome study, sometimes there would come to him recollections of the simple prayers at the Mission, just their own boyish words, “Dear Jesus, help me to be a good boy . . . bless our people . . . ,” and the good-night prayer, “Jesus, Tender Shepherd, lead us . . . ” But Slender Boy would not give any place to these thoughts; he had come back to be a heathen medicine man to carry on the heathen ceremonies known as “ Sings” ; the ways of the white man were no longer for him. Sometimes the big medicine man from the valley—Red Point—would come up for two days at a time to help teach him, and Slender Boy felt very important at such times. During the lovely bright days, he and Nazbah often followed the sheep together, renewing their happy childhood friendship, and for all his fifteen years of which he felt so proud, and his superior learning, she often made him feel a dunce with her quick wit and merry speeches. Sometimes Nazbah’s father walked up the mountain trail to spend the long winter evening with Slender Boy’s uncle, and occa sionally he brought Nazbah with him. Then they would all sit around the fire, and the older people would tell Navajo stories o f the way the world began, how the Navajo people came to dwell in Navajo Land, and how they chased the Hopi people onto their lonely mesas. ' The weeks passed quickly, and in late February a fearful blizzard raged over Pine Mountain. When the wind had died down, Slender Boy took the sheep out of their long confinement in the corral and crossed the hill with them to another cor ral where there was a supply of sagebrush. He stayed with them there over night, and when he returned about the middle of §the next morning, he found his uncle and aunt busy preparing for a “ Sing.” As soon as he entered the door, his uncle began giving him directions as to how to find and prepare all of the things needed. The rattle and bunch of feathers were ready, and Slender Boy helped him to tie up his medicines, made of roots and leaves, in the little deerskin bags. All these, to gether with the ground colored stone for sand painting, he put in a large deerskin sack tied at both ends and hung to the saddle o f the Indian pony that stood mo tionless at the door. As soon as Slender Boy saw that pony, he recognized it as belonging to his cousin, Nazbah’s father, and a moment later the old man himself came from behind the hogan and took the bridlq o f his mount. He had come, according to custom, to carry the medicine. “Who are we going to sing over ?” asked Slender Boy, with a strange clutching at his throat. But his uncle was too busy to attend to his question, and the four, after his aunt
