There are seven of these men, and each has a distinct title. All are apparently of equal importance to the group. Le-yod', of ato Lowingan, whose title is "Ka-lob'," has charge of the ka-lob' ceremony held once or twice each year to allay the baguios. Ang'-way, of ato Somowan, whose title is "Chi-nam'-wi," presides over the chi-nam'-wi ceremony to drive away the cold and fog.
Ang'-way of ato Somowan performs the chi-nam'-wi ceremony once or twice each year during the cold and fog of the period Sama, when the people are standing in the water-filled sementeras turning the soil, frequently working entirely naked. Many times I have seen the people shake arms, legs, jaw, and body during those cold days, and admit that I was touched by the ceremony when I saw it.
