high ATTITUDES. the first case of rude
surgery was found by Or. Call. In a
hunt occupied by an old man, an old
woman and their son he saw that the
oiG mans legs were cut off below the
knees. He learned that few years be
fore he had frozen his legs and feet.
/ / he old woman had chopped off the
frozen parts with long knife. which
she showed 10 the surgeon. The legs
had healed fairly well, despite the
rOushness of the job. Later he found
many similar Instances. Thus he says
There are natives hobbling around III
Point Barrow with the loss of one or
both legs, hands or arms, who had no
assistance from white men or a sur
geon. and / might say that almost all
! of these cases are Que to the frost bite.
! In time the dead and frozen stump,
having no sensation. is chopped away
! by some member OF the family, and,
after long and slow process of gran
ulation and sloughing. healing follows.
! For some reason the Eskimo refuses 10

on nearly ten years ago are on their
knees still. and the amount OF work
and travelling they DO is astonishing.
