Photograph used for a story in the Daily Oklahoman newspaper. Caption: "RALSTON-- There are new words for tonight. The first is "elder." Hazel Harper says the word, then repeats it in the Osage language. Her voice is soft, the Indian tongue is guttural, and her students strain to capture the unfamiliar sounds. "Teaching," she gives them. And "knowledge." To these words, she adds a piece of history."
