THIS totem poie
comes from a family
who lived in Canyon
City, a village on the
Nass River in B.C,

The totem was spotted
outside on the porch in a
wood box. The family said
the children had been using
it as a baseball bat and it was
destined for the wood stove.

~The pole was purchased in
1960 and is believed to have
been carved) by a family
member who then was
approximately 60 to 70 years
old. It remains in a private

“collection.

Chickens on the run

From page 15

smarted us. .

The neighbour's dog,
eager fora little adventure,
tagued along — behind.
This was no fox hound. In
fact, hailing from Pender it
was likely he too was a vege-
tarian. After a half hour of
humiliating door-knocking,
in the neighbourhood, we
took to the back woods.
Over hill and dale and
stump and swamp we
searched. E spotted the first
two escapees, hanging out
in a bramble covered ditch,

muttering to themselves.

. T reached out to grab
one but they both clucked
off in a surprisingly swift
chicken gait. For portly
bipeds, those things can
move! A silly foot race
ensued.

The other two were spor-
ted in separate locations,
iooking a little weary of the
caper. In the end, we gave
up trying to capture them in
our hands and herded ther
home with no help from the
vegetarian dog, They took
their bloody time, poking
their beaks into this and
that along the way, out of
spite, no doubt.

We prodded them back
into their little wooden

house with its old shoe for a" -

door hinge and its crookedy
walls. Tired and broody
ourselves, we retired to ovr
little house and its weod :

heap of embers. :

Chickens stupid? I don’t
think so.
