In connection with the pressure tests in the two hands, some

interesting comparisons are possible between the Eskimo here dealt with

and the old white Americans. As all the tests were made with the same

instrument and method the results inspire confidence. It is in details

of this nature that the anthropologist finds again and again the most

striking proofs of the basal unity of the living races and their

necessarily common origin somewhere in the past.
