As papooses we shake in our war paint with fear of him. As braves we recognize him as our leader, but still dread a summons to his wigwam. As warriors we strive to please him and earn honors for him and for our tribe. We learn that it is not always a bad omen to be called to his wigwam, but realize that from such a conference we may learn many words of wisdom. As chiefs only, can we fully realize how great is his ability, how patient are his ways. We learn of the vein of subtle humor which breaks through his stately manner. We know of his generosity, of his willingness to help us. Every tribe has had its chief. Some were kind, some severe some brave, some brutal.

We have tried to show you how the papooses became braves, and they in turn, Warriors, and finally chiefs. As the years go by We trust the EPOCH will so increase in value that no Wampum can buy it. We hope all Red Raiders will cherish this book until they go to the Happy Hunting Groundf'
