OLD MESA LIFE.

The Pueblo Woman Was Always the Head
of the Household.
When the men went down to the
fields, the pueblo was really in control
OF its rightful owners, the women. In
these old communities the woman was
the important partner in the household.
She was the owner of the house and all
it contained She built it and furnished
it with it's utensils Of daily use. The
children traced descent through the
mother and took her clan name. The
mans position, other than mere pro-
wider, was that of an honored guest,
and If he presumed disagreeably on his
position more likely than not he was
sent back to his own home. Far from
being the general slave and pack animal
that is her sister Of the plains tribes,
the Pueblo woman's duties were purely
domestic, and if she ever worked in the
field it was for the common good, to
ave the scanty harvest in time Of need.
The grinding Of the many colored
corn for bread, the weaving and the
making Of pottery were her principal
occupations, and are to this day. The
Pueblo Indians are par excellence the
potters Of the southwest, and it will be
confessed that they come fairly by the
title, as an examination of some of the
old time ware will prove, although in
this case. as in some others, the evolu-
ton has not been for the better.
In the small house cell or in the white
sunlight the potter sat, and. with
scarcely any tools at all, fashioned such
specimens of the potter's art as to chal.
lenge admiration from us with all our
appliances The use Of the potter's wheel
was unknown, and the "throwing" Of

To sound their voiceless chime.

Der Persian valleys faint with odors sweet
Or like enhancing melody
Conjured BY master hand from strings
Aglow with heavenly fire.

Awakens sleeping joy, deep toned and full
