. Report of the Canadian Arctic Expedition 1913-18. Scientific expeditions. Eskimo Siring Figures 31 b Dr. Gordon's figure "No Name" reproduces all the movements of this figure up to the final stage, which his informant (a King island native) had evidently forgotten. Boas has a figure from Cumberland sound called teratchea, "the ermine"; it differs very slightly from "the beaver" and may have been produced in much the same way. Make "the little ; With the backs of the indices from the distal side push out the side strings of the triangle.* Drop all but the index loops, and inserting the remaining three fingers of each hand into them from the distal side, release the indices and reinsert them from the distal side. Now lay the right hand loops over the left index so that the two ulnar right index strings ( the upper transverse strings) become the distal radial left index strings and the two radial right index strings the proximal ulnar left index strings. The right hand is thus released altogether. Pass the right index from the proximal side under the two distal radial left index loops (the old right index loops) and hook it over the two distal ulnar left index strings (the original radial left index strings); then point both indices upwards so that they protrude through a small circle of double strings; separate the two hands. With the left thumb from the distal side remove the left index loops. Pass the left little finger from below from the proximal side into the left thumb loops and, pressing down the ulnar strings, allow the two lower trans- verse strings to slip off; then hook the little finger down over them. Pass the left index from the distal side into the thumb loops and with its palm draw through the two upper transverse strings. You have fig. Fig. 26 Over near the right hand on the back of the index there is a kind of knot which readily opens out and is seen to be formed by two strings running per- pe
