Eastern Arctic Patrol, album 37, page 70

Inscribed beneath images: 7.-1950 - All dogs in the Western Arctic are tethered. When sleeping they curl into a small ball and the snow drifts over them and keeps them warm. 8.-1950 - A picture of an Eskimo woman struggling out of her igloo during a snow storm that has caused the snow to drift into the entrance. 9.-1950 - The Eskimo now uses a rifle rather than the bow and arrow, and are particularly adept. Their whole livelihood depends upon their ability to use modern weapons. 10. - 1950 - This is a Roman Catholic church at Bathurst Inlet. 11.-1950 - An Eskimo woman standing outside her igloo during a snow storm. 12. - This boy was a victim of the polio epidemic of 1949. He has recovered very well from this attack and has very little residual paralysis. One can note that his left foot has a tendency to turn in somewhat.
