Analysis. — Tliis sontj; is melodic in stmcture, begins on the twelfth 

 and with one exception contains only the tones of the fourth five-toned 

 scale, the most frequent interval of progression being the 

 minor third. The notes marked (• were slightly prolonged 

 in all the renditions. This prolonging of the tone was uni- 

 form but not sufficient to be indicated by a note value. 

 Attention is directed to the fact that with the introduction 

 of the second word the melody does not begin an entire 

 repetition but soon returns to a point near the opening of 

 poie^a'n'd the soug, the remainder of the melody being the same as 



stone are in the first, 

 shown in 



the draw- The following song is similar to no. 2, except that the 

 '°^' person to be initiated wouhl dance during this song. It 



may also be sung in the Mide'wigan (lodge in which the ceremony 



is held) after the initiation.
