Shesa Brave taught the boys and girls so well that within the week they were quite familiar with the use of—
Triangular Bandages
Bandages cut in the form of triangles are the most useful first-aid bandages, for they are very readily adjusted, and may be applied to so many different uses; for instance:
To hold dressings (compresses) in place.
To support broken or fractured parts of the body (sling).
We will have on hand for our uses:
One large triangular bandage, made from a piece of unbleached muslin one yard square.
Cut the muslin across diagonally, as shown in “A.”
Two smaller triangular bandages, made by cutting a large triangular bandage across as in “B.”
