pool, but there are those who
think It should be officially some
thing fancier. Ixtke Celllo Is often
suggested.
Maybe we need a word In the
English language that describes
the sort of water made when n big
river Is dammed. Certainly lake
Is not the right word. It Is more
properly a pool.
The Idea of calling the pool
Lake Celllo falls to move us. Not
only because It Isn't a lake, but
because it Isn’t Celllo. The white
man has destroyed Celllo, utterly
and completely. It was a swift
rapids or falls where Indians
netted the rushing salmon to the
amazement of visitors from afar;
It was the historic meeting place
of the trities of Indians who had
fished there for more years than
the white men have known. Now
it is a quiet pool with nothing of
its former self.
If Celllo meant anything in
Indian language or white it meant
"tumbling water”. We canrot un
derstand the thinking of those
who would cull the Columbia's
latest pool ’ Tumbling Winter
Lake”.
It should not be called by an
Indian name or anything resem
bling It. Indians had nothing to do
with it. It might more appropri
ately be called Herb Elder Pool or
Guy Cordon Pool Hut not Celllo.
