 Figure 12. — Plan of eagle villages in the sky. (Drawn by Wolf Chief.) 



He thought the people should have something to give them good luck when 

 their enemies attacked so he made up a corn ball to go with the pipe. He thought 

 that he would bring his friend who had gone to the enemy and that he would use 

 corn balls and pemmican to do this. He thought he would call the rain. The 

 people would have plenty of food so he decided to have a turtle on which to place 

 the peppermint when rain was wanted. He would have the buffalo skull in his 

 lodge and that would keep the animals near the village. All these things he 

 thought about and all these things he undertook to do. 



When the year was dry he would use the turtles and sing the sacred song. 

 Then the rains came. Sometimes the buffaloes would stray far away and he 

 would build a small fire under the buffalo skull while he sang. Then the buffaloes 

 would come nearer and the people lived well.
