. The early herdsmen . She was out of the camp and away to the hills before he could overtake her "Run and help Pick- a-tree, " called Spin-a- thread when she saw the boy chasing the goat. The children ran. They helped Pick-a- tree bring the goat back to camp. Once several goats ran off to the hills, where they jumped from rock to rock. Spin-a-thread saw them and called to her sisters, "The goats have run away! Chase them back!" When the women were chasing the goats, they came to a patch of ripe berries. "What nice berries these are!" said Drag-a-load. "I wish I could stay here and pick them." "May we stay and pick the berries?" asked Root-digger. "Stay, " said Spin-a-thread. "Stay and pick the berries. The children will help me drive back the goats." When they reached the goats, Tether-peg was there. She had been listening to the birds when the goats came to the hill. "This is good grass, " said the wise woman. "Let the goats stay and feed for a while." "Won't the wolves get them?" asked Spin-a-thread. "We must keep watch for wolves and bears, " replied the wise woman.

The air was filled with blinding snow. The north wind blew fierce blasts and piled up great drifts. The herds sought shelter in the woods, and the people went into their pits. When Tether-peg saw the storm com- ing, she tethered the animals in a thicket not far from the camp. But the cold winds blew through the thicket and the creatures shivered with the cold. In a lull in the storm the women went out and brought the animals to the fire. They
