again , in the evening , when the young people formed a ring around the lodge , and the piepeend - jigun , or leather and bone , passed rapidly from one to the other , she either handed it along without attempting to play , or if she took a part , it was with no effort to succeed . the time of the corn - gathering had come , and the young people of the tribe were assembled in the field , busy in plucking the ripened maize . one of the girls , noted for her beauty , had found a red ear , and every one congratulated her that a brave admirer was on his way to her father 's lodge . she blushed , and hiding the trophy in her bosom , she thanked the good spirit that it was a red ear , and not a crooked , that she had found .
happy .
