Scope & Content:
Mimeograped paper describing noisemakers. In the fall the Indians sought to capture moose by using a moose–call, a cone or megaphone– shaped trumpet made of birch–bark. A muskrat–call is made of two small pieces of wood with a strand of birch–bark fastened between them. Children often made whistles or music–makers by holding a thin strip of birch–bark betweek the lips and blowing across it.
