1t Is remarkable how much there Is
in cedar. These Indians get almost
everything they need from 1t excepting
food. It is more useful to them than
bamboo is to the japanese. They make
their boats, their huts, their clothes
and many Of their tools out Of it.
Their cedar bowls, boxes and chests
are excellent achievements. Early
Japanese art was likely the same in
kind as that of the Indians at present.
In some ways it is the same in kind.
The nets, bows, arrows, spears, fish
