CODE OF THE NORTH
As one sticks around a strange
place and listens in to the conver
sation that takes place about the
things that interest those who are
doing the talking one gets some in
sight into human nature that will
hardly be gathered from any other
source. Red had been out with the
crowd and occasionally would run
over to where fellow workmen were
employed and relate some little in
cident which occurred the previous
Saturday or Sunday. From the bits
I got it would seem that there
should be some missionary work
done right close home as well as
attempts made to convert the (Chi
nese who for centuries have believed
themselves far ahead of the Cau
c a s ia n in civilization. There is lit
tle pride o f achievement among the
blacks, it is true, but some sage
has said, “ Where ignorance is bliss,
’tis folly to be wise."
Red, the mechanic you know, who
worked on the bus while at Rock
Springs, “ broke the sad news to
me’’ at about five o’clock Monday
evening. O f course it was too late
to travel any that night, so I drove
the car to the camp firmly decided
to get an early start in the morn
ing. We got up early enough Tues
day morning, and loaded up while
the moon and stars were yet shin
ing. The six o’clock whistle blew
just as we drove out o f the camp
grounds, but we didn't get far, just
about a block or two. Then “ pop”
went the engine and with a few
«Tying gasps the thing quit right
there in the middle o f the street. We
had no flash light, having depended
on a “ trouble lamp” that one at
taches to the battery.
Down the street a little way was
a street light, and we shoved the
car along by main strength and
awkwardness. A careful check over
the gas line revealed that the tube
which leads to the windshield swipe
was not attached to the top of the
vacuum tank where it should be.
And there in the dark (the street
light did not throw much illumina
tion on the subject) I could not
get the end of the tube over the
end o f the connection made for it,
so I whittled out a plug for the
hole in the connection at the top
o f the vacuum tank and got in and
stepped on the starter. Away we
went. There was little danger of
rain in that section so we left the
plug in there for a couple o f days.
A boy was delivering the morn
ing papers when we finally got
started* We inquired if it was from
Portland and he told us it was a
Salt Lake paper.
Names along the highway be

Rock Springs and Green
River— Camel’s B’ack, Thieves’ Cave
etc. They were the names of some
o f the towering rocks. Tiny, dirty,
dull gray sage brush was about
all the vegetation showing. Forty-
four miles down a tributary of -he
green river, there is little to enjoy.
Farther on we came to an ex
