the liuht hanil over it with extended fingers, and then both .arms ex- 

 tended in front of body, liands liorizontal, lingers extended, backs out- 

 ward, to the sides, are held on the level of the breast. [Ikilota I.) "Size 

 of the box." 



Boy. See riiil<l. 



Brave. 



Close the fists, place the left near the breast, and move the right over 

 the left toward the left side. ( Wied.) A motion something like this, 

 which I do not now distinctly recall — a sort of wrenching motion with 

 the flsts in front of the chest — I have seen nsed for strong'. If Wled^s 

 sign-maker's hand first struck the region over the heart (as he miy have 

 done) he would then have indicated a " strong heart," which is the 

 equivalent for Brave. {Matthews.) 



Clinch the right fist, and place it to the breast. [Almirola I ; 8ho- 

 shoni and Bauak I.) 



Both hands fist; the left (A) moved up close to the body to the height 

 of the chin, at the same time the right is brought np and thrown over 

 the left (as it is moved up) with an outward and downward curved mo- 

 tion ; the left hand is carried upward and downward and the movement 

 of the right reversed two or three times. Endurance is expressed by 

 this sign, and it is connected with the sun-dance trials of the young man 

 in testing bis bravery and powers of endurance before admission to the 

 ranks of the warriors. {Palota I.) 



Push the two fists forward about a foot, at the height of the breast, 

 the right about two inches behind the left, palms inward. (Dalwfa IV.) 

 "The hands push all before them." 



The right arm is Hexed and elevated ; the hand is then placed over 

 left eye much in type-position (B). It is then twisted from left to right 

 across forehead until at right side of head when the motion stops with 

 fists palm outwards. That is readily unwound, As good ivilL (Oto I.) 



Strike the breastjgently with the palmar side of the right fist. ( ^Vy• 

 andot I.) 



Strike the clinched fist forcibly toward the ground in front of and near 

 the breast. {Arikara I.) 



He is the bravest of all. 



Raise right hand, fingers extended, palm downward ( <V 1), swing 

 it around "over all,"^the point to the man (fig. 1), raise left fist (A 1, 

 changed to left and palm inward) to a point in front of and near the 

 body, close fingers [of right hand and place the fist (A -, palm inward) 

 between left fist and! body and then with violent movement throw it
