CHAPTER I
What the Goose Hunters Saw
"What's that, Gaspurd, off shore
there t"
The blnck eyes of Gaspard Lecrolx
shifted from the Incoming flock of
anowy geese out to the gray water of
James bay, beyond the marshes where
tbe boys lay In a "bide."
"Schooner, I t'lnk," muttered the
half-breed, watching the distant ob
ject for a space through eyes nar
rowed to silts.
"What In thunder's a schooner do
ing on all coast In September de
manded Brock McCain. "Something
Queer here!"
"Ah-haht Eet ees queer."
"Must be free traders! They cant
get throt'g'j Hudson's straits now;
they're got to winter on the bay. I
wis' my father knew about this," re
gretted 'be white boy, "but 't's too late
to turn back now."
"Eef wa going to trap de Yellow
Leg beadt.ater die long snow we got
no t am to lose."
"Right you are, old partner I But
rd like to know what th?se people
are doing on this coast You don't
suppose we'll run Into them on tbe
Yellow-Leg r
Tbe swart face of Gaspard Lecrolx
went darker. Tbe small eyes gilt-'
tered as be said: "My fader die on
de Yellow-Leg! I dese peopl' bunt
dat countree, last spreeng, fley "
"But tbat was two hundred miles
Inland, Gaspard," objected Brock.
"These people would not leave tbe
coast."
"Ab-bah, mebbe not," sighed the
half-breed, saddened by the thought
f tbe father be bad lost.
Over the marsh which reached from
tbe black spruce guarding the muskeg,
Inland, 'o the wet flats where myriad
shore birds fed behind the ebbing tide,
the flock of "snowies' which the boys
were watching, drifted lazily lb from
tbe sea.
Then, In quick succession two shots
roared beneath them and before the
beating pinions of the bewildered
geese lifted and swept them out of
range, again two guns exploded In
the "hide." Falling vertl-ally, two
birds struck the grass flats stnne dead;
two angled down from the retreutliiK
"snowies," wings moving necl.anli-ul
ly, to bit the marsh with a thud a
hundred yard from the aiders.
"Four more," said UriK-k. rising to
itretcb his stiff legs. "Thin make
twenty this morning. Guspnrd."
"We eat sll we can Tjr. I wish
we bad blggalr boat."
"Oh. we'll find caribou on the Tel
low-Leg, and if we muke Jie lakes
In time, we'll net plentr of whltcllsli
and trout. I don't see why yu wor
ry about grub." demurred lirwk.
Gaspard shook bis bead goodna
turedly at the optimism of his friend.
"De caribou ees here today; tomor
row gone. We must get feesh or we
have bard tam to feed de J"g In de
winter," h replied. "We gut wan
month to de frecxe-up. Brock. We
must burry."
Then, each with a back load of
birds suspended by a leather tump
line passing over the head, the boys
started for their camp a mile across
tbe marsh.
At the camp, a chorus of busky
yelps hailed them.
"Hello, Flash, old pup!" called
Brock, tossing his geese to the plat
form cache high above the reach of
the dogs. As bis master went to the
stake where be was tied, the big Es
kimo puppy wriggled Id erstary, al
ternately growling and yelping bis de
light At neighboring stakes three grown
dogs fretted and yelped. Jealously de
manding recognition. Brock left bis
puppy, and with a pat on the bead
and pull at the ears, spoke to each.
"Well Kona, old girl!" he said to a
snow-white female who greeted him
no less eagerly than the si Ate-gray
and white Flush. Hello Silt-Ear, you
rascal!" be crleu to a black and white
dog with on ear whlcb had been rlpp.d
by the razor-like claws of a lynx. The
fourth, a hulking yellow and white
busky, the red lower lids of whose
oblhjue, amber colored eyes marked a
near strain of the wolf, crouched at
bis stake.
"Yellow-Eye I You've been chewing
at that wire again!" And the youtb
seized the griping lower Jaw of tbe
dog and looked Into the tawny eyes
raised to bis. "You're king-dog of
this team, now, old boy, but some day
tbat pup Flash'll make your old boues
crack."
By the time they bad finished their
dinner of boiled goose, corn bread
and wild cranberries, the returning
tide had backed up the water In the
stream to a depth sufficient to float
the loaded canoe out through the chan
nel. Thot with their freight of
geese, flour and provisions; traps and
camp outfit, on top of whlcb was
lashed a toboggan sled, '.hey started

tails up, and In full cry, as they rev
eled In their freedom after daya of
tethered Idleness, the dogs drove
frightened flocks of shore-birds, duck
and geese Into the air, as they trav
eled. "You're a big, uble I ml, Brock, for

Hungry llnu-e, on ttie Starving river,
had replied In July to the pleading of
his son to be allowed to winter on the
Yellow-Leg with Giispnrd ; "but you're
too young to trap stntuge country."
Somewhere far to the north, tn the
unexplored lake country of the In
terior, from which flowed the great
Wlntsk and the Carcajou, the Yellow
Leg was thought to hove Its sources.
But no Indian trading at Hungry

try but one bud the hardihood to cross
the divide and enter tho unknown and,
therefore, mysterious land to the north
and he had not returned. Tbat
ninn was Pierre Lecrolx, father of
Gaspard.
With his dog team be bad started
on the March crust to explore the
nameless valleys beyond the Inst blue

Fine Art of Living
1$ Greatest of All
A Texas woiuuo, Mrs. Nellie Miller,
says some Interesting things about the
llnest art of all the art of living. To
live finely," she says, "Is to choosa
between things of patslng Interest and
those of lasting value; to be glad to
work because It Is making a life rut her
than a living." . . , We have It with
in us to make life rich, If while facing
our dllllcultles we can see the beauty
there Is In the world, The Texas
woman expresses this Idea when she
suys, "Whatever of beuuty the lieurt
Is feeling, whatever of beuuty the
mind Is thinking, whatever of beauty

MANY Western Ideas have taken
hold In Slam, but to the trav
eler from the West the coun
try Is atlll a quulnt land ot
tho East, much of Its life colored by
Buddhism which Is the state religion.
The chief charm of Bangkok, the
capltnl, lies In lis wonderful temples,
of which the ltoyal Wutt are the most
gorgeous. The most Interesting and
historic of these Witts Is the king's
own place of worship, Wat I'hra Keo.
A wall with battlements and ancient
gates of queer design surrounds this
and a number of other wata. Includ
ing the old ltoyal palace. Only the
roofs of the temples and the graceful
golden prachedls (votive spin's) are
visible from without, but their gor
geous colors v rin It the Imagination
to conjure a picture of even more
gorgeous Interiors.
The full name of Wat Phra Keo Is
I 'lira Sri ltatann Sutaadiiram. it was
begun by Phra I'uttha Yot Fa Chula
lok "as a temple for the Emerald
Buddha, the Palladium of the capital,
for the glory of the king and as an
estctal work of royal piety," In the
year 17V!.
To go Into detail describing the
glories of this wat would take many
pages; suffice It to say Hint Its tile
roof Is of Chinese yellow bordered
with Indigo blue; thut the columns
are mosaic and Its heavy doors ot
carved wood. The center of Interest
Is Its sarred linage, the "Emerald
Buddha," a green Jude figure which
alts enthroned under many golden um
brellas, surrounded by praying devas.
The Image was unearthed In 1 t.Tl. at
Klnng Hal, and brought to Bangkok,
whence It was onee stolen by Invad
ing Cambodians, but wus recovered
by B victorious Siamese army,
The murul decorutlons of the tem
ple are exquisite. The floor Is of tee
aellated bras, and the walls are cov
ered with fresoK-s. Surrounding the
glided and carved altar are Innumera
ble offerings which remind one very
much of those found In old Chrlstlun
rhurrhes renowned for miraculous
beul trigs.
