Front:
THE STORY OF HIAWATHA-
For the EARTH he drew a
straight line
For the SKY a bow above it;
White the space between for
DAYTIME,
Filled with little stars for
NIGHT-TIME,
On the left a point for SUNRISE,
On the right a point for SUNSET,
On the top a point for NOON-
TIDE,
And for RAIN and CLOUDY
WEATHER
Waving lines descending from it.

The American Indian had a literature and a
language long before the white men came to
this land. While speech varied in different tribes,
a universal sign language was used and under-
stood. Stone and bark writing dates back many
centuries.
