It was autumn, so the Indians on the remote reservation asked their new Chief if

the

winter was going to be cold or mild. Since he was a Chief in a modern society,

he

had not been taught the old secrets, and when he looked at the sky he couldn't

tell

what the weather was going to be.

 

Nevertheless, to be on the safe side, he replied to his tribe that the winter

was

indeed going to be cold and that the members of the village should collect wood

to

be prepared.

 

But also being a practical leader, after several days he got an idea. He went

to a

phone booth, called the National Weather Service and asked, " Is the coming

winter

going to be cold? " " It looks like this winter is going to be quite cold

indeed, "

the Meteorologist responded.

 

So the Chief went back to his people and told them to collect even more firewood

in

order to be prepared.

 

One week later he called the National Weather Service again. " Is it going to be

a

very cold winter? " he asked. " Yes, " the man at the National Weather Service

again

replied, " It's going to be a very cold winter. "

 

The Chief went back to his people again and ordered them to collect every scrap

of

wood they could find.

 

Two weeks later he called the National Weather Service again. " Are you

absolutely

sure that the winter is going to be very cold? "

 

" Absolutely sure, " the man replied. " It looks like it's going to be one of the

coldest winters ever. "

 

" How can you be so sure? " the Chief asked.

 

The weatherman replied, " The Indians are collecting firewood like crazy! " ;-p
