"According to our reckoning, we
ought to reach 17 Kilometer Ksesset
by about 6 In the evening. We keep
sharp lookout for tbe point and aJpit
something about 4 o'clock that tcoka
like It Once more, however, we are
doomed to disappointment -It Is not
th point.- ,:
"We pass many c4d camping place,
relic of the Denmark expedition? but.
although we search long and carefully
among tbe old tins for any remains of
food we find nothing. In the gather
ing darkness every point we approach
seems to ns the one we seek. Encour
aged by the thought of food, we re
double our efforts. But when we get
close enough to see that ft Is not the
point our flickering flame of energy
die down, and we stagger sullenly
along with bowed beads.
"We have no longer any Idea or our
whereabouts, and It Is Indescribably
nncanny to see time after time the

locks at Its font the ghost of 17 Kilo

ing 'our way with our sticks, off we go
Into the darktiewi.
"Finally, after another long march,
we sight a point that resemble 17
Kilometer Naeswt and this rime It Is
oo trick of tbe Imagination. The race
Is won, for at the point we find fuel
