Red Cross Lady of this work, written by an .Alberta author and C.A.A.member, is Mary H.Conquest, M.B.E.Unlike McKenzie Porter's history of the Canadian Red Cross entitled \u201cTo All Men1'\u2014 which deals with the imposing sweep of disastrous large-scale events this book deals with the spiritual power of a triumphant soul dedicated to the advancement of the Red Cross cause.No one could have been better entitled to the surname \u201cConquest\u201d than this Mary, whose bodily sufferings and physical handicaps were so crippling and yet whose ability to rise cheerfully and usefully above these afflictions reminds us of another Albertan of Scottish antecedents, W.R.Watson of Calgary.Her name became lo Albertans almost synonymous with that of the Red Cross.Barbara Cormack has chosen her subject well and tells this impressive story without literary affectation.What her fastpaced, unadorned narrative may lack in style of expression is made up in her tender and understanding approach.Conquest and Courage of another type fill The Man Who Rode the Thunder, a gripping story which takes the reader, via a F8U \u201cCrusader\u201d, to the upper limits of human endurance.A tough

.This is a first novel, so ably translated from its original German that from the beginning the reader becomes engrossed.Basically it is the story of two doctors with opposing principles and

and unexpectedly.Perhaps loo sensational to he classified as a first rale novel.I SWEAR AND VOW nevertheless has certain qualities to recommend it.First, it is tremendously gripping with pace

product recognized by In dian standards.Those were the days when men got rich by manufacturing their own money Wampum or Wampum Pcage meaning while bead was the shell money of the North American Indians and the first currency known in Canada.LEGAt TENDER In trading between whites and Indians, wampum so completely took the place of ordinary coin, it was declared legal tender among the new American colonies Although it ceased to be legal currency in 1670 it eon tinned to circulate among the colonists until the early eigh tcenth century and among the Indians until about 1825.Original wampum was of two colors, white and blue, with the blue being worth twice the white Value was one sou or half penny for the white and two sous or one penny for the blue, which was a scarcer shell to find, The blue beads were made from ihe blue hearts of the \u201cquahog\u201d or round clam shell.EXACTING JOB After gathering the various .shells, the Indian began Ihe long and exacting process of manufacture.Most of the shell was broken away until only ihe thick lips or lobe remained.A hole was then bored through the centre with Hie use of a hand bow drill After each individual sweep the bow had to be withdrawn, the shell cleaned and pul in water to prevent breakage When the hole was completed the bead was polished on a fluted grindstone until it shone like glass, and was strung on gut as a belt or neck lace.Chiefs and Sachems wore wampum belts, as symbols of authority and power which were surrendered on defeat in battle.Wampum is still used in ceremonials.The way the brada are strung
