completed on Flambeau with a large
number of the party working on the
ditch line at that location. Forty
Flambeau and will have the ditch
line there repaired very shortly.
Aviator Lajotte who is a member
of the A. H. Moore party has visited
the different camps and picked out a
landing' field for the plane that will
keep the camps in constant commun
ication with each other. The ladies
in the party are very anxious to
out to the camps. Two of the ladies
have established themselves at the
canvp on Osborne Creek already and
the remainder of the ladies will fol

SOMETHING OF INTEREST
TO THE NOME I’l'MJC
The following communication was
handed in by Mrs. Anabel Fromm for J
publication and is a subject of much ,
interest thruout Northern Alaska. !
Now that Mr. Lapp, the Superin-I
ten dent of the Bureau of Education
for the uutives of the different pre
cincts including Nome, has visited us .
again, he should be consulted on |
ways and means of having a den- ^
tist visit all camps during the win- ,
ter. ' Small amounts of supplies j
should be sent to each place and the j
Eskimos and Indians should be j
trained to save and pay for their !
dental work, as it makes paupers of !
them to expect Government dentists
to visit and do their dental work j
free gratus.
In years gone by Government den
tists have been seat down the Yukon
River to do the work, they drew
their salary and told us to go ahead
| and “fix them up.” Last winter in
travelling over the Yukon trail I
visited all the different schools and
found from 7 to Id dozen tooth
brushes sent in by the Government |
I and none of them in use. I gave J
lectures and cleaned their teeth and |
trained them how to use the tooth <
brush properly. The Indians on the j
j Yukon still have the old fashioned j
method of manufacturing a hook i
land knocking out their teeth. j
! No dental service has been given [
| the Indians from Unalakleet as far
i as Ruby. Supplies should be sent to
i i'nalakleet. there is a large school
' there and would be a good distrib
l uting place.
j Natives are the be*st patients in
'the world, as eager to have their
1 teeth attended too, and happy and
proud when they can pay for the
work. By furnishing supplies to
these isolated places the work could
bi done reasonable and within the
reach of all. may this great work
reach far and wide and all Govern
ment organisations will help both
th«» Indian 'and Eskimo in their
great need of Oral Hygiene.
