SAND PAINTINGS TRANSFERRED
TO WALLS OF EL NAVAJO
HOTEL
Pictures Were Made in Colored Sand
And Destroyed the Same day
They Were Made
GALLUP, August 17—The famous
sand paintings of the Navajo's have
been preserved for posterity, and the
old Indian prophesy of “The Holy
Ones,” that when all the sand paint
ings are forgotten and all religious
chants die out, the end of the world
will come, can be laid aside in the
minds of those who believe it, for the
time being at least.
For the sand paintings have been
transferred by artists to the walls o"
the Hotel El Navajo, recently dedicat
ed here. In placing the paintings on
the walls, the artists were particular
not to depart in the slightest degree

from the original paintings made by
“White Singer,” and other eminent
chiefs.
In the art of the Navajos, paintii.g,
music, the dance, poetry, and drama,
/are indivisable and all are expressions
of religion. The medicine man is high
priest, physician, singer, dancer and
sets the stage for no mean drama. He
depends upon his memory for every
detail and teaches the cult in turn to
his followers. The legend reads that
when the “Holy Ones” gave the cere-1
monies to man, the priests were en
joined to memorize them and destroy
the originals. This was done not only
to avoid their falling into sacreligious
hands, but principally to write them
on the hearts of living men.
They were therefore made in color
ed sand, and destroyed the same day
they were made. Thus both paintings
and charts passed on from generation
to generation, changing gradually and
many of them fading rrom memory of
even the oldest priests.
