My little sister, age 3, was combing Daddy’s hair. Standing behind him she presently said, “Why, Daddy, your neck is dirty. You just come back and see if it isn’t.” I was sitting on the porch with Sister Jean and a neighbor girl. Margaret asked Jean if she was ticklish and Jean said, “No, I’m Protestant.” Daddy asked Jean if she wanted to go to the Park and play horseshoe and Jean gravely said, “Arc you going to use mv new shoes, Daddy?”

38 THE JUNIOR LIFE A Visit to the Indian Country While visiting in the Indian country we first visited the Jumping Snakes where Donald Brady was chief. We arrived just after a hunt. A group of Indians including Bruce Nelson, Harold Martcnson, Lyle Samuelson, and Edward Lewis were bringing in several deer. We were informed that the medicine man was James Beatty. Several squaws were seen and we recognized a few of them. Nan Pemberton, Grace Shantz, Amy Tharaldson, and Virginia Munger. The next tribe visited was the Howling Coyotes. We were greeted by two of the chief warriors of the tribe, John Ryan and Edward Erickson. A dance was being held to worship the Sun. A few of the participants were Lucille West, Donna Hogan, Betty Lou Neese, Robert Phillips, and Carleton Mills. The chief, Jack Kenaston, informed us that these dances occurred every four months. We were directed to the Flying Rabbit tribe by John Kiklas where we were warmly welcomed by Cyril Eggum, the chief. We renewed our peace pledge by smoking the pipe with Robert Anderson, George Ryan, and John Solberg. As we left for home the last sound we heard was Carlyle Jacobson’s song to the moon. 1.

40 THE JUNIOR LIFE Our Bryant Tribes Heap Rig Chief, George Johnson, of the Nation, O-Ninc-Be Gas (7B), has arranged for a large pow-wow, summoning members of all the five great nations, U-Seven-Be-Das (7B), De-Sept-Aay-Nos (7A), Sum-Ate-Bay-Sets (8B), Mor-Hi-Octo-Saws (8A), and O-Nine-Be-Gas to meet to discuss their common problems and to reward those who have been outstanding in some accomplishment. They have gathered here about 1000 strong from all directions, from the Atlantic to the Pacific, and from Mexico to Alaska. Each Nation has been assigned a plot of ground for its encampment and there we see them starting their camp-fires preparing a meal, sending the papooses on errands, beating the tom-toms, and having ceremonial dances. Many have brought specimens of their craftsmanship for display. There seems to be quite a little activity around the U-Scven-Be-Das. Let’s go over and see what they arc doing. They have come largely from the Western Plains where their principal occupations are agriculture and hunting. In the early days buffalo-hunting was very common. Now some of these braves will
