Eagle Beak
Speech writer for Santanta
Satanta,
the great Kiowa warrior was known as the “Orator of the Plains”. He had a
natural gift for giving great speeches and dealing with his enemies.
Through out Kansas ’ history he has been known
for his oratories at Medicine Lodge and at Fort Dodge .
Although
Santanta had a gift for delivering speeches with great style, his genius of
putting words together with great power came from his little known friend,
Eagle Beak. Eagle Beak did not have the rugged good looks of Satanta, nor
the skill of a warrior that was Satanta’s. Eagle Beak was the eloquent
voice of Satanta that stayed in the background of Kansas Native American lore.

Jest like a flint stone, and that's wher he got his name.

But he's a good helpin' hand and a good man "to ride the river by".

Hon Roseanna K Volden - Morton County
Harold, the Head Herd Handler and Woody, the Woodcarver,
are good buddies and get into lots of mischief together
when they finish their chores.
Like that Christmas far, far away.
Harold hitched the herd to the sleigh.
Santa gave a whistle
the signal to the team to fly to the sky,
like the down of a thistle.
NOTHING!!!
So he called them by name.......
on Donner, now Dancer and Prancer......
NOTHING!!!
Try as they might.....
They couldn't take flight!
With a turn of his head ---
Santa knew what there was to dread!
The team couldn't fly as they should......
Cause they were carved from wood!!!
Harold, the Head Herd Handler
and Woody, the Woodcarver
are their names
and mischief is their game!!!"
