His father was the great chief of the Iroquois, who lived in a village of longhouses south of Lake Ontario.  \nIroquois  \nLake Ontario  \nThe Iroquois were a powerful tribe. They were so great that no other tribe dared to attack them. They liked to fight, and all their games and dances had to do with war. When a shield was to be made, the people came together to pray to the gods for success in war. When arrows were to be made, the people prayed that the arrows might  \ngo straight to the hearts of their enemies.  \n1. The Iroquois were a   tribe.  \na. peaceful  \nb. powerful  \nc. powerless  \nd. weak  \nThe scalp dance was their special delight. They held it just as the twilight began to fall. The warriors daubed their faces with brightlycolored paints. They stuck feathers in their hair, and carried drums and horns and rattles. And as if they could not make noise enough with all these, they yelled and whooped as loud as they could.  \nwarriors  \nThe procession marched straight into the village. Then torches were lighted. A fire was made and the warriors formed in a circle round it.  \nThen the chief leaped out into the open space. He shouted the story of his wonderful deeds, and boasted of  \nFree Printables and More for K-12 Education [www.STUDENTHANDOUTS.com](www.STUDENTHANDOUTS.com)  \nLeaping Wolf-2  \nthe many warriors he had slain, while over his head he waved the scalps he had taken.  \nWhen the chief had finished his story, another warrior would leap out. Then, another and another, each one yelling the story of his bravery until he could yell no longer.  \nAs each warrior finished, the people shouted, \"That is good! That is good! That is good!\"  \nThe houses Leaping Wolf's people built were large enough to hold several families, and they are always spoken of now as the longhouses ofthe Iroquois.  \nLeaping Wolf had a good time in his village, for something was always happening or going to happen.  \nAt the beginning of the year, when the moon was full, came the first great holiday for the people. At that time, the holy meeting was held. Then Leaping Wolf's father and all the other chiefs came together and made speeches to each other for four whole days. Leaping Wolf was never interested in the speeches; but at the close of the fourth day, there were games and dances, and in these he could take part.  \nIn the early spring, Leaping Wolf's people had their second festival. At this time the people gathered for a dance around the maple trees. They believed that this dance helped to make the sap flow. Even the babies  \nwere taken to this sugar festival, and when it was over, the mothers made all kinds of soups, sweetened with maple syrup.  \n2. Why did people dance around  \nmaple trees during the spring festival?  \nThen came the festival for corn planting; next, the strawberry festival; and last of all, the great autumn festival when the corn was harvested.  \n3. What was harvested during the great autumn festival?  \nDuring the long winter that came after the harvest festival, there was still much in Leaping Wolf's village to keep him amused and happy. Best of all, he thought, were the stories that his father used to tell.  \nFree Printables and More for K-12 Education [www.STUDENTHANDOUTS.com](www.STUDENTHANDOUTS.com)  \nLeaping Wolf-3  \n\"There is one star that never moves,\" said Leaping Wolf one night when he was out on the plain with his father.  \n\"Yes,\" said his father. \"Once there was no such star. But long ago, some Iroquois hunters were lost on the great plains. They walked on day after day till their corn gave out and they were nearly starved. At last they came into the land of some strange people.  \n\"‘Lead us to our homes,’said the hunters.  \n“The people said,‘A star shall beset in the sky to guide you.’  \n\"Then this star that never moves shone out, pointing the way to the Iroquois' home. Ever since that time, this star has stood fixed in the sky.
