]>lace they would go. They agreed to settle at the place visited by the Tsioii 

 \vacta>ie. Then four standards were made by members of the Waoaoe (wam'i" 

 gens, two for each side of the tribe. These were the standards made of mi".Ka ha 

 (swan or goose skins), and they were earned on the hunting road as well as on the 

 war path. But the otter skin standards were always retained by the Waoaoe gens." 

 On comparing this version with that of Sadeki(|'e we notice that in one or the 

 other a transposition of some parts has been made. In this latter tradition the ap- 

 peals to the heavenly bodies and to the Red Bird were made before the journey to 

 the four revolutions of the upper worlds.
