And so it is with much that i narrate
Of the events of that farOff time. There
IS duality about my impressions that
IS too confusing to inflict upon my
readers. I shall merely pause here in
my narrative to indicate this duality,
this perplexing mixing Of personality.
It Is 1, the modern, who look back
across the centuries and weigh and
analyZe the emotions and motives of
Big Tooth, my other self. He did
not bother to weigh and analyze. He
was simplicity itself. He just lived
events, without ever bordering why he
lived them in his particular and often
cratic way.
As 1, my real self, grew older, 1 en-
tered more and more into the sub
stance of my dreams. One may dream
and even in the midst of the dream be
aware that he is dreaming, and If the
dream be bad, comfort himself with
the thought that it is only a dream.
This is a common experience with all
OF ms. And so it was that I, the mod
ern. often entered into my dreaming.
and in the consequent strange dual
personality was both actor and spec
tator. And right often have I, the
modern, been perturbed and vexed by
the foolfshness, fllogic, obtuseness and
general all round stupendous stupidity
Of myself, the primitive.
And one thing more, before end
this depression. Have you ever dream
ed that you dreamed? Dogs dream,
horses dream, all animals dream. In
Big Tooth's day the half men dreamed,
and when the dreams were bad they
howled in their sleep. Now I. the mod
ern, have lain down with Big Tooth
and dreamed his dreams.
This is getting almost beyond the
grip of the intellect, | know, but l do
know that have done this thing. And
let me tell you that the flying and
crawling dreams of Big Tooth were as
vivid to him as the falling through
space dream is to you.
For Big Tooth also had an other self.
and when he slept that other self
dreamed back into the past. back to
the winged reptiles and the clash and
the onset of dragons and beyond that
to the scurrying, rOdent-lilze life of the
tiny mammals and, far remOter still.
to the shore slime of the primevaI sea.
I cannot. I dare not, say more. 1t is all
too vague and complicated and awful.
I can only hint of those vast and ter
rife vistas through which I have peer
ed hazily at the progression OF life-not
upward from the ape to man, but up
ward from the worm.
And now to return to my tale. |,
Big Tooth knew not the Swift One as
q creature of finer facial and bodily
symmetry, with long dashed eyes and
bridge to her nose and down opening
noStriIs that made toward beauty. |
knew her only rs the mild eyed young
female who made soft sounds and did

me things about tree climbing. She

ments.

Cock Goekr This latter sometimes
terminated in a savage 'Ha, ha, ha, ha,

And in this fashion were we hunted
through the forest by the eXasperated
Tree People. At last, by midafternoon,
the slopes began rising higher and
higher, and the trees We're becoming
smaller Then we came out on the
grassy TANKS of the mountains. Here
was where we could make time, and
here the Tree People gave up and re-
turned to their forest.
The mountains were bleak and in
hospitabe, and three times that after
noon we tried to regain the woods
But the Tree People were lying in wait,
and they drove us back. Lop Ear and
| slept that night in a dwarf tree, no
larger than a bush. Here was no Sc
curity, and we would have been easy
prey for any hunting animal that
CHANGED along.
In the morning, what of our new
gained respect for the Tree People, we
faced into the mountains. That we
had no definite plan or even idea | am
confident. We were merely driven on
by the danger we had escaped. OF
our wanderings through the mountains
l have only misty memories. We were
in that bleak region many days, and
we suffered much, especially from
fear, it was all so new and strange;
also we suffered from the cold and
later from hunger.
1t was a desolate land of rocks and
foaming streams and Gathering cata-
racts. We climbed and descended
mighty canyons and gorges, and ever
from every view point there spread out
before us in all directions, range upon
range, the unceasing mountains. We
slept at night in holes and crevices,
and on one cold night we perched on
top a slender pinnacle of rock that was
almost like a tree.
And then, at last, one hot midday,
dizzy with hunger, we gained the di-
vide. From this high backbone OF

earth, to the north, across the dlmln-
ishing, down falling ranges, we caught
a glimpse of a far lake. The sun shone
upon it, and about It were open, level
grass lands, while to the eastward we
saw the dark line Of a wide stretching
forest.
We were two days in gaining the
lake, and we were weak with hunger,
but Oh its shore, sleeping snugly in a
thicket, we found a part grown calf.
1t gave us much trouble, for we knew
no other way to kill than with our
hands When we had gOrged our fill
we carried the remainder of the meat
to the eastward forest and hid it in a
tree. We never returned to that tree,
for the shore of the stream that drain
ed Far lake was packed thick with
salmon that had come up from the sea
to spawn.
Westward from the lake stretched
the grass lands, and here were multi
tudes of bison and wild cattle. Also
were there many packs of wild dogs,
and, as there were no trees, it was not
a safe place for US. We followed north
along the stream for days, then, and
for what reason | do not know, we alb
ruptly left the stream and swung to
the east and then to the southeast,
through a great forest. | shall not
bore you with our journey. | but indi-
cate it to show how we finally arrived
at the Fire Peoples country.
We came out upon the river, but we
did not know it for our river. We
had been lost SO long that we had come
to accept the condition of being lost as
habitual AS l. look back ! see clearly
how our lives and destinies are shaped
by the merest chance. We did not
know it was our river. There was no
way of telling. and if we had never
crossed it we would most probably
have never returned to the horde, and
|, the modern, the thousand centuries
yet to be born, would never have been
born.
And yet Lop Ear and | wanted
greatly to return. We had experienced
inconsistencies on our journey, the
warming for our own kind and land,
and often had | had recollections of
the Swift One, the young female who
made soft sounds, whom it was good
to be with and who lived by herself,
nobody knew where. My recollections
of her were accompanied by sensations
of hunger, and these l felt when was
not hungry and when had just eaten.
