Poor Imitation Today tlie l'ullalch lias been shorn of lis ceremonial und is u ioo- inululiim of what il once was. It. was giye,iv in tinipoiTunl occasions such as Ihe accession to the chieftainship , the erection of u totem or the. building. of U house. In oriler to. help, giiderstand what is meant by the Potlatch it is necessary to uiiilerstuiid.some- i li j ink of the social system of tlie Indians, .said .Mr. Collisun. They are divided into chiefs, .gentry. ami Hie coming people. Tlie distinctions are very clear and even today It is common to hear chiefs poken to vvith deference. The Indians are organized in to families, tribes and confederacies. The family is made up of the brothers, uncles and nephews and is known as the. house"; it has its crest, sub- chief and lutein. The clan-scclion is a branch made 'tip or one or more families. The clan is Ihe group made up of all the elan-scelions with a common totem. The tribe is a eonimuiiily of different clan-seclions living in the same place. This is noticeable iu the Kallas. There arc (he Kilkathis, Metlukallas and others.. The confederacy is an alliance formerly for offensive or defen sive purposes.
