representing the sea wolf, but myth ical two-lined killer whale or may be grizzly bear. These were placed on the ground close to the house in which the dead person had lived.
 The ornamentation of these poles was not done by means of free-hand drawing, but by patterns cut out of stiff cedar bark to outline the most important parts of the conventional animal designs such as the head, eye, nose, chest, body, limbs and blow-hole of the whale. Red ,bl lck ard dull powdered mineral was then mixed with a medicum of chewed salmon eggs and applied with brush es made of porcupine bristles set in split sticks.
 Excellently preserved specimens of these weird landmarks which have withstood the strain of wind and wea- ther for many years, may be seen at the Indian villages of Alert Bay, on the east coast of Vancouver Isl- and, at Bella-Bella on the coasts of the mainland of British Columbia, and at several quaint villages in the central part of the province.

TOTEM POLES PAY TRIBUTE
 TO RED RACE

Gone are the days when the plctur- esoue North American Indian in his warpaint and feathers roamed over this entire continent. No more do the hillsides resound with his wild war whoop or his singing and dancing echo through the forest at potlatch and feast time. Gone are the days of the birch bark and the mighty cedar war canoe. Even the red man him. self is forgetting the old time life and adopting the white mans civilization as quickly as possible.
 And soon every vestige Of the TO- mantle life of the aboriginal tribes of the North American Continent will have disappeared. The living story of civilization complicated, interest ing and full of meaning will be gone. Perhaps that is why the remaining villages of British Columbia Coast In- dians with their weirdly decorated totem poles still standing in a good state of preservation are of such out standing interest today to anthropo- 1ogist students and world traveller alike.
 These totem poles, or heraldic poles, are characteristics of the vilag- es of British Columbian Coast h. dians, who in the old days were prob ably the most highly civilized of all the Sou:E American Indians especially .he F.: jdas of the Queen Charlotte Is- lands Certainly these Indians were artistic and clever draftsmen. Not only their totem poles, but dishes, la dies, charms, musical instruments, masks and other articles were elabor- ately decorated. They also carved ladies and spoons out of horn.
 Beautiful Horn Spoons
 The larger ones were usually made in two parts, the handle being made of the tip of the horn of the mountain goat, while the bowl would be made from the lower part of small noun tain sheep horn. The carved handles frequently illustrated family crests

and traditions of the owner, in yer tical sequence, like the large totem poles. Tn reiingenuity and skill was again displayed in in their making of ropes out of cedar twigs, nets of cedar and nettle fibre, fshhooks of bone, tools of stone mats and blankets of cedar bark, and in the building of their great war canoes.
 Their totem poles, however, which were made of British Columbia red cedar so as to outcost generations of Indians, were probably more elabo- rately decorated and receivei more thought than any other subjects in their villages For they held a unique place of honor in the community standing as they did in the center front of the house of the chiefs and people of rank
 These totem poles ranged from ten to ffty-fve feet in heigh- towering hgh above the roof, having the main entrance to the house cut thru the lower part of the pole. Each was carved and painted with various gro- tesque birds, beasts and fish, in yer tical order representative of the crests of the chief in front of whose house it stood. In the later years his wife's crests were also used and of tn in order to cover high pole with decoration, figures illustrating fam fly story were introduced.
 Carved memorial poles, very much like the house poles, were sometimes erected in honor of the dead at a dis tance from the actual place of the burial and even in a different will lage, when only the crests of the fam fly to which the deceased belonged were shown.
 One Of the poles is s+t;i' standing at Skidegate, Queen Charlotte Is lards On the top of t is an eagle below which is a raven wearing g many-crowned chiefs hat and at the bottom a beaver characterized by its large incision teeth holding a stick and the scaly tail; on it's chest is 2 frog. All these are crests of the eagle division of Skidegate. Nor were these memorial crests always in the form '5f poles but were sometimes single figures carved out of huge cedar logs

Mr.. Chaliapin was most explicit In
his directions about the stage "busi-
ness" as the dramatic action Is
called. He drew the setting OF the
scenes, marked where he wanted
each table or chair that might at
feet his entrances or exits. He told
how he wanted the mass Of the
choruses to stand, to supplement his
portrayal Of this great role.
A Scarlet Mephisto.
The character Of ''Mephisto-
pheles' the classic Devil Of grand
opera, bears deep philosophy.
IT have never yet been able to
portray all the psychology / feel
in the part" the great Chaliapin
told Miss Dillon.
Chaliapin dresses him in tradi-
tional crimson. It was Victor
Maurel, / believe, who chose to
dress his Mephisto in sornbre
greens and browns.
But here he stands--throughout
many scenes--a blood red symbol OF
Evil.
The symbolism Of the role Is
what appeals most to the great
actor singer. After seeing Chaliapin
in opera it is a question which is
his greater art, the voice or the
actor. A poise, q movement OF his
expressive hands, are as great a
means Of telling the dramatic story
as his satanic laughter, or his
mighty evolxing Of the spirits OF
Evil.
Like an apparition, this Mephis-
topheles is to dart out from the
crowd at this place, then suddenly
appear elsewhere. In every In
stance he Is governing the thoughts
of those he hauntS, as subtly as
Evil, itself, creeps into life.
To learn even 30 little of the
artistic thoroughness with which
Chaliapin interpretS role, Is a
great lesson to all who believe that
success is largely matter OF luck.
World MOurns Puccini.
How worldwide Is the sorrow for
the passing of Puccini.
1t is, at the same. time, token
of the universally of art For the
loss of Puccini to the world is
personal.
That this vibrant, human genius

terfly," seems not so sad as that
he who was Rodolfn, or Scarpia, or
the kindly Sharpless, is not horo
to share our joy in them.
To write over the premiere of his
new opera. that was awaiting his
recovery for its presentation in Italy
post presentation of PUG
cini's Turandot''-is like robbing his
nalpitating harmonies OF its life
blood
Yet they remain on, His mighty
''Tosca" still lives to be the test Of
the dramatic art OF ALL great singing
actresses who will come after him.
Through we did not know him.
Giacomo Puccini was our friend.
We mourn him.
