JAMES COOK, noted British navigator and explor- er, discovered the west coast tribes in 1778 at Nootka Sound, Vancouver Island. After refitting his ships at Nottka, Cook sailed north along the B.C. and Alaskan coast to the Bering Strait, on part of his third great global voyage of discovery. in the picture, one of the Indians is trying to induce a sailor to part with his brass sleeve buttans. The natives were eager to obtain metal of any kind, in any form, and gave valuable otter skins in exchange. Before white men came, the Indians had carved with tools made of bone and Stone, They used coarse fish scales for polishing. Capt. Conk found that some. Nootka artisans cherished pieces of iron,. capper. and brass fixed to handles fo form chisels and gouges. They had obtained these in trade from | other natives. who had come. _ into: contact: with Spanish or | Russian ships, The trading vessels which followed Cook’s explorations brought steel fools to fhe In: dians and with these, the nafive art of carving develop: ed rapidly. Totem poles be came faller, more elaborate, and for the first tlme were placed outside the native houses, instead of inside, as they had been, Nootka houses were describ: ed by Cook as being taller at the back than in the frant, The sloping roofs were cover- ed with loose boards that could be removed for light, air, and to let out smoke, At the end farthest from the door were “large tree trunks carved into shapes of men, beasts and birds, and painted vivid colors.

There is a tremend- ous variety available. And, of course, ve know that nothing enhances the foot more than a strap.” ; He points out that the strap is to the foot as cosmetics are to the face. They can slim a wide foot, round a narrow one.,. They can draw itténtion to the ankle, or pull it away, Above all, they Aatter Why haven't we seen many ° ‘straps until this past year? The stylist, from A. S, Beck, says it-.is because’ fashions change — sometimes without yveason. He points out that a few decades ago women real- : jzed what strapped shoes could - do for an outfit. Then, sudden-. ly, it was decided that shoas should be basic, not exciting. . “Now, * he says, with pleasure. “shoes have become an integral part of the fashionable -wo-..|- 7 |. man's ensemble, This also ac- ‘|: -eounts for the: popularity. of || ‘buckles, | trimming, and: open- back shoes.
