The Board of Trade passed a motion in support and urged more Estevan news publicity via a Tribune reporter. The Mercury notes a lack of publicity in The Regina Leader-Post and mentions Saskatchewan printing by The Winnipeg Tribune.

Carving by Southern Death Cult Found Near Weyburn
A 2.5 by 1.5 ft petroglyph linked to the Southern Death Cult, dated around 400 years ago, was found near Weyburn by Victor Mulhall in June 1935 and is now displayed outside the Saskatchewan Museum of Natural History east entrance. Archaeologist Boyd Wettlaufer recalls the culture flourished in the lower Mississippi Valley and southeastern U S. The stone shows a religious revival style with Mexican influence and related artifacts have been found in Saskatchewan. The Death Cult declined about 300 years ago but persisted into historic times in the central plains.
