Part of a scrapbook compiled by William Winneshiek (Winnebago), who wrote the caption "Montana Chiefs . . . Cheyenne, Osage + Sioux . . . Interpreter Greeting a Daughter A Daugther At Carlisle 1913." 

Winneshiek appears to be mistaken, as this appears to have been taken on the occasion when a group of Blackfeet dignitaries visited the school for commencement in early April of 1913. Based on comparision with other photos of this occastion (see Related Images) we believe this student is Blanche Jollie. 

The caption reads: CARLISLE STUDENT IN INDIAN DRESS

The handwritten note reads: Rose Lyons

The printed note reads: It isn't often that Indian students appear in native costume at Carlisle, but the accompanying cut is from a picture of Miss Star Eyes, who attracted much attention at this week's commencement by her pretty face and pic-turesque garb.

This image of Miss Star Eyes appears in the Harrisburg Telegraph on April 2, 1913.
