They went along the stream, but never very close to It now. Deep cut banks, rocks and driftwood piled the shore. It was impossible to walk there and make any progress. So they had climbed the long, steep slope of the river valley to its top where the ground was more level. The day following Cleve's in jury Penny estimated that they had traveled only four miles. Cleve had to pause every little while to rest. The land they were traversing was cluttered thick with brush. Branches kept snapping back, no matter how careful they were, to strike Cleve's wounded arm. When they made camp. Cleve said, "I guess I didn't do so well, tot. But tomorrow I'll be feel ing better." His face was still flushed. His eyes had a strange, glassy look. Penny was alarmed. "If you'd just listen to me. Cleve, we'd stop and rest for a clay or two." He forced a laugh. "Not on my account." "It you should play out, what would happen to us then?" Cleve waved the possibility aside. "The way I figure," he said, "we can't be more than five or ten miles from Long Portage. If there's any traffic on the river at all, we should meet up with somebody there. Rationing Dates Ration Book No. 2 May 23 Stamp J (meata-fata In Book No. 2. valid. All, including unused E. P.

"Possibly," answered Penny. "From Long Portage it's just twenty miles to the mouth of Moose Creek." "And from there, twenty-five miles to le Frene's shack," said Penny. They were taking an inven tory of the miles. A mile did n't sound tike much when one was talking about it, Penny re flected. But to travel over one in this wilderness with all the barriers of rocks, brush and hills, was entirely different. It was a continuous struggle, with new hazards every minute. There were small streams to ford, steep slopes to climb, swamps or muskegs unexpected ly barring the way. "Altogether only about an other fifty miles," she said gloomily. She threw clown her pack and averted her head so Cleve could n't see the discouragement well ing In her eyes. "Yes," said Cleve, "only fifty miles. We're halfway there." "Halfway t h e r e," repeated Penny dully. "What I'm banking on is Long Porlage and another ca noe," said Cleve. "This con stant walking is too hard on you. Penny." Too hard on her! Hero he's been stumbling along all day through a fog of pain, fever, hunger and fatigue, yet his con cern was for her. What a dear he was, Penny thought. Invol untarily, she wondered what Powell Ward would have done under such circumstances, how he would have reacted to such heartbreaking difficulties. "I'm not worrying about me," Penny said. "I'm worrying about you. Wc might as well face it, Cleve. Your injury is much worse than you or I care to admit." "Nonsense," said Clove. "You're going on nerve," she went on doggedly. "Only your will is driving you. You're burn ing with fever. No use denying it. I'm not blind." "Trouble is," Cleve admitted reluctantly, "that blamed bullet lodged next to the bone. It sets up constant irritation." "Oh. Cleve!" "I didn't want to loll you. Penny, but you can see now why we can't stop. We've got to push on to Porlage." Penny moistened her lips, nodding. She thought about that as she busied hrrself gathering firewood, fetching water from the nearby creek. Cleve want ed to help, but she wouldn't let him, "Don't be absurd, Cleve." "I just don't like the way I feel, watching you carrying like a squaw. You were created, Penny, for an Ivory and chro mium penthouse the kind Pow ell can provide." A penthouse seemed very re- j By Gene HOWSOMEVER, OON'T LET THAT DISCOURAGE YA WE LL FINO A USE FOR. CM ! IN PACK. I HEAR. OPPORTUNITY KICKIN1 OUR DOOR IN !

"What's on the menu?'1 ask ed Clove, valiantly cheerful. "As if you didn't know. More rice. A demi tasse of boiled creek water. Poor Wolf it's tough on him." Penny looked around suddenly, "Why, Cleve, where is he?" Cleve said, "Oh, he's about somewhere. I saw him not long ago following you down to the creek." "But I haven't seen him since. Oh, Cleve, I wouldn't want to lose him!" "He's probably off foraging for something to eat." "But he's just a pup. Some thing might happen to him." Penny got up, walked off to ward the creek, calling and whistling, peering through the trees, into the underbrush. No answer. No scamper of feet. No high excited yapping. Cleve rose laboriously to join the search, sharing her anxiety. "I hope nothing's happened to the little rascal," he said. They were both remember ing that Wolf had probably sav ed Cleve's life by diverting Stringer's attention when he'd pulled the gun. But neither mentioned that. Tired as they were, neither said anything about discontinuing the hunt for the little malemute. Small tracks led them back along the creek into the woods. It was darker here and cooler, More lonely. Penny stayed close to Cleve. "Probably scented a rabbit or a squirrel," muttered Cleve. "Can't blame him for deserting us and our rice." "No," said Penny. Suddenly, she paused, sniffing the air. Simultaneously, Cleve gave a husky shout. "Smoke!" he said. "Over there, Penny," After the first relief, they grew cautious. Once before smoke had led them to a camp fire and into danger. They walked on quietly. Penny heard Wolf yapping. They looked through a screen of saskatoon. 1 "A Cree encampment," said Cleve. "Thank heaven." The Indians were hospitable. Wolf welcomed them proudly, frisked about making silent ca nine introductions to his new friends. Here was food. His sharp nose had scented it. He hoped his master and mistress were pleased.
