cephalo-facial indices; the upper lip is 2*4 mms. shorter, the mouth 2-1 
mms. shorter, the ears 1*9 mms. narrower, on which account the ear index 
is smaller, i.e., the ears of the two bands are of the same length, but they 
are different in breadth. In other respects the two bands resemble each 
other. 
Similarly, column 4 of section C indicates in what measurements the 
Chipewyan and Fitzgerald men differ from each other, and column 3 tells 
the extent of these differences. In short, the Chipewyan men differ from 
both the Fond-du-lac and Fitzgerald bands in having a greater sitting 
height, in, perhaps, having a deeper forehead and longer face, in having a 
higher nose and a broader hand; whereas, in these measurements the 
Fond-du-lac and Fitzgerald men do not differ from each other. The sole 
peculiarity of the Fond-du-lac men is their high mean cephalo-facial index; 
and perhaps also a high ear index. 
The Fitzgerald men are distinguished by their low sitting height 
index, short upper lip, and narrow mouth. It is, moreover, not improb- 
able that from Fond-du-lac through Chipewyan to Fitzgerald there is a 
gradual increment in stature together with a gradual diminution in ear 
width. In width of forehead, width of nose, length of ear, and length of 
hand there are not significant differences between any of these three bands. 
Assumedly Pure Chipewyan Indians and Chipewyan-White Breeds 
In the same manner we may compare the forty-four men who are 
deemed to be pure Chipewyan Indians with the twenty-two who are 
Chipewyan-white breeds. From table VII, section A, column 4, it may 
be seen that there is certainly a difference in stature of 4-7 cm. between 
the pure and breed Indians, the breeds being the taller (Diff. / P.E. diff. 
3-6); that in length of body there is no appreciable difference and, there- 
fore, that the length of the lower limb is responsible for the difference in 
their statures; that in the breeds the head is possibly a little rounder, but 
there is no definite evidence of any difference either in length or breadth of 
head ; the face is certainly narrower and the cephalo-facial index less. The 
Indian-white breeds may be expected to differ from pure Indians in having 
a broader forehead, a shorter and narrower face, higher facial, and lower 
cephalo-facial indices, a shorter upper lip, a less high and a narrower nose, 
together with a higher nasal index, and in having a narrower mouth. 
Although the mean measurements of these Chipewyan-white breeds sug- 
gest that these trends exist here, column 4 definitely supports them only 
in the case of the lip, and, perhaps, also, in the case of the nose height.
