clan, to which he belongs. This fine specimen has been

Dr. Paul Radin, ethnologist, was among the Winnebago 
Indians of Wisconsin at the opening of the fiscal year, 
having resumed his investigations of this people in the 
preceding month. These were continued to completion, 
and in October, 1911, Doctor Radin returned to Wash-

Handbook, by August of this year. The necessary final
