Default How does "Private" work

Excel 2002, Win XP
I have a sheet macro:
Private Sub Worksheet_Activate()
Call UpdateSummary
End Sub

The UpdateSummary macro looks like this:
Private Sub UpdateSummary()
'Stuff
End Sub

Upon activation of the sheet, I get an error message on the "Call
UpdateSummary" line that it is not defined. If I remove the word "Private"
before the Sub UpdateSummary() all works fine. I wanted to ensure that the
UpdateSummary macro was not displayed in the Tools - Macro - Macros list, so
I put the "Private".
Obviously there is something here that I don't know. What is it?
Thanks for your help. Otto
