| Summary: | An Arctic Delicatessen In Open Air. An Arctic Delicatessen in Open Air Short shrift for the whale that calls at Point Barrow. Packing houses which use all of a pig but its squeal could learn from the Eskimo who uses all the whale -- particularly its blubber. A whale is light, heat, food, whalebone and "muk-tuk," an arctic delicacy consisting of lumps of skin and fat. "For Eskimo good -- for white man spoiled," an arctic citizen told Ben Eielson, pilot of the Detroit arctic expedition when Eielson turned up his nose at a portion. This photograph of "butchering day" was made by Tom Brower, son of Charles Brower, "the king of Barrow," who operates the trading post of Liebe & Co. (Copyright, N. A. Newspaper Alliance.)
