STORY FOR Y (By Doroth tutututwtuuuuttuuttummutututus utututuuQ OUNG FOLKS !y Bibbs.) uutuuIuutuMtlluuotIuutIuIuutumtuuuwutwutwIluuuuuutuultuwtuwtututuuuuuItutIuuwtumtIIC FOR THE SAKE OF PEACE The "Lions of Vancouver," those two mountain peaks look- ing so alike as they stand forth together against the blueness of the morning sky, or together catch the glittering shades of the golden sunset, are especially interesting to us because of the Indian legend that is written about them. In the long, long ago, they were twin sisters--the daugh- ters of the Capilano Tyee, who , fought so fiercely in battle that his fame spread throughout the ! world. Many was the time when the girls sighed together over the sorrows caused through the wars he raged. Great was the longing in their tender hearts for a perfect and lasting peace. One joyous day their father decided to give a tremendous feast in their honor. and actu- ally turn his back for awhile on his beloved battlefields. The 'eason for his sudden decision was the fact that he realized his l.daughters were passing out of childhood and growing into wo- manhood. Amongst the Indians great reverence and love is shown for women; for to them is given ,'the charge of infant sons, who finally grow to fill the ranks of fighting braves. All during the lives of these twin daughters the atmosphere of battle and bloodlust had sur- rounded them. Conquest had kept following conquest for the great Chief--to whom, at last, all the surrounding distriCts bowed the knee. Finally, even the great Northern Tribes had been drawn into combat with him, and the worst war of all had followed. Finding he had driven his enemies afar off, the Chief real- ized he could afford to rest and give this feast in honor of the twin maidens. "Come,"'e cried, in his own Indian tongue, "let us eat, drink and be merry!" Returning to the shelter of the Capilano Canyon, the canoes were emptied of all deadly weapons, war songs ceased, and all differences were forgotten as former foes feasted together in brotherhood. Light feet danced over the turf and laughter echoed amongst the vales. Amidst the rejoicing, how- ever, the Tyee's two daughters were seen daily whispering to- gether, heads bent. They, in whose honor the feast was held, were quietest of all that crowd! "What is it, my children?" en- quired their father, noticing their preoccupation. "We would have you grant us one wish, oh! our father," an- swered the girls, approaching and standnig by his side, the centre of a closely gathering throng. "Speak, and it shall be grant- ed!u the Chief nobly promised, as he drew his daughters to him and put an arm around each-- giving them a little squeeze. There waS silence for a mo- ment as all waited anx!ouslyfor't to be broken. At last came the request: "We desire that you ask our enemies, the great Northern Tribes, to this our feast, oh! our father!" The old Chief staggered back. "Ask them to a feast in the honor of our womenfolk?" he questioned, wondering perhaps if he had heard aright. "It is that we would ask thee!"'ame the ringing reply. "No father refuses his daugh- ters any wish, on such an occa- sion as this," answered the Cap- ilano Tyee in a low voice. "Least of all will I!u "May the day dawn that will see thee blessed for wishing peace--instead of war!'u Immediately a shout arose from among the tribes. Messen- gers were sent forth, and the Great Peace was declared. Vast crowds flocked into the Capilano, feastings and merry- making continued, gifts were be- stowed, favors received. Finally the Grdat Sagalie Tyee Himself walked amongst his In- dian children and lifted the be- loved twin daughters to the heights. On the mountain tops he placed them, where today we see them still calmly looking down on the peace in our land.
