He said: THE Indians and the mound
builders had very good idea of wood>
working. You will see even now some
very pretty joining done by the Sioux
Indians. Their tent poles make a fit
which many white carpenter would not
like to try to better The Aztecs knew
how to make very good manageable
glass, and their best cutting blades
swords. daggers. and spears. saws, CHS
els, and axes were made of it. When the
edges dulled they broke it from the end
instead of sharpening it, and got new
cutting line. You can see great deal
Of aboriginal carpentry still In use among
the Moqui Indians in the United States.
They know how to make ladders, and
they swing their doors on hinges from
the top, and they know how to mortise
timber-knew how long before Columbus
landed in America. The chisel they push
rather than hammer, and they work the
board up aud down on fixed saw rather
than the saw on the board, but withal
they get creditable results. The frame
work in the Pueblos is quite as honest as
anything we have in America"
