While be yet had his stiength. he would try fur his t nip ping camp, where there was s little Hour end dried meat, and fish for Flash It could not be fur, not more than ten miles, and If the wlud eased they might make It by night For two hours, the dogged youth, with the nose of bis busky at his heels, pushed Into the bui itncring wlud. At lengtU, weak from hunger r.nd es haustion, he crossed a small valley where the drifts rose shoulder-high but t lie wind break of the ridge ahead eased the going, lie knew be must flnd a camping place soon and wealhei It out, for bis legs were stiffening The grub at the end of the trap-line was still miles away. He must hold up for the night and wait for (lie norther to blow Itself out lie couldn't buck this wind loaded with shot lie was beaten. Rut there was no cover here. He would freeze If he stayed. They must get over the ridge and down Into the thick timber. Head down, bud; doubled on bis thighs, the desierate lad plunged Into the pin pointed bar rage which beat the blood, like sand blasts, to his frost-blnckened face. At his heels crawled a dug. Through the white maelstrom of the exposed ridge they battled; now flattened to the snow at wind flattens grass ; now reeling forwnrd until, agnln beaten to their knees, they soiighl breath for another effort On and on went the pair, boy and dog. fighting for every while yard they wrung from the bludgmnlng wind aa ihey eoughl the sanctuary ot the sprint There, st Inst they won their way. and. side by side, on the snow gasped for breaih ss the norther thundered over them Rested.

Temlerly the boy freed the Inflamed -".res ol his dug from the crust which tllmled him Then, whnre the spruce stood thick and no drift was making. Rrork dug a hole, lined and covered It with houghs and rut wood for a fire. "We'll wall It nut here. Hash." he cried. ' "There's a little left for sup per then we starve; but we'll -nit If nut here." Ravenous with nunger after the hours ot grinding toll against the force of tha wind, dog it ml boy finished the pitiful l.alf ruilon ot food whlcii remained, and curling before the hint lug logs, slept the sleep of exhaustion To Rrock't surprise and Joy, he opened his eyes at dawn In (hid that the bllzrn-d had blown Itself oul und the snow had ceased "Hey, you Hush I" lie cried In the dog who hnd dug Into the snow al the side of the hole. "Wuke up. you old sleepy head I Today we have a real feed."

"By the great horned owl, Flash." he urinouprcd to the dog whose eyes watched the hoy with Interest, "I don I see one darned landn.ark !" lirock got oul his glasses from the lied and slowly swept the surround ' tiR wuiitry.

It hud shifted and he had fol lowed the shirt lie hnd probably worked fur lo the eust, but not more than ten miles. He hadn't mudt mucb more tha that against that wind. So be turned Into the northwest Through (lie short hours ot the sub arctic IVceinber day, they traveled over the frost blanket of snow which had burled the country, tiut when the sun drifted Into the lend colored base, smearing I he western horizon, aud llrock made ir.inp, the wind-burned features of t lie boy's face, scarred by the whip of the blizzard, were sober with doubt. That day be should have readied or seen the ridge at the end of his lines and the barren to the south. As the light r.ded and (Its spruce filled with purple shadow, Brock now realized that in ths two days of blinding snow wild a masked sun, he had worked far to the east or west which he did not know. And the li st ot the food was guns I How long could he travel without grub? Starving as they were, he and Flash could make the trap-lines and home camp If he only knew In which direction they luy. Rut to wander lost I Suppcrlesa, the two friends slept, while out under the glittering stars stole the clawed patrols of the forest night pitiless eyes scouring thickets and moonlit reaches for that which would still the ache of their hunger. Ghostly shupes, like gray shadows, drifted noiselessly through ths sting ing air, talons tense for the swift thrust at hapless mouse or rabbit "Flash, you look bungry," said Brock In the morning, with wry grin, ss he tightened bis belt and started Into the north. "Today we hunt aa we go. A couple of rabbits would taste prettty good. ehT If only they could run Into cariboo, thought the boy. But the presence) of wolves on the flunks of the migration doubtless bad scuttered the deer far and wide. At noon. Brock built s small flit and rested. While Flash as yet sbuwed little effect trntn bis lack ot food. Brock was fust weakening. The ache of bla clamoring stomach bad now ceused but In lis place stole heaviness a numbness Into his limbs, lie wondered how long be would be able to travel, searching for the river and lake. If he failed to strike game; two three days, possibly another, then a atarVatlon camp, where day by day, he would weaken, until he could no longer cut wood to keep bis flit and the numbness of the white deat. would find him beside his dog. Poor old Flnsh I He would still hang on, for a husky starves slowly. And then again, be fore the husky was loo weak, be might find ru bM is, or caribou, and work bick to camp and Gaspard. Filling his stomach wltb hot water, with a shrug Brock turned to the dog. "Flash, like a fool. I got you Into this mess. Now I'm goln to get yoi out Come on, old boy, and we'll shoot some supper. Before dusk dropped like a blanket on the Klwedln wastes. Brock shot two rub'. Its. which he shared 'lib Flash, and that night, for a space, l lie fear 'i hla heart was dulled. Wrapped In his r-;be by ths flit, Brock's harassed thoughts thrnshed bark and forth over the days Just passed. Often he had heard bis fa ther say that buihcraft backed by none, would.

D. C-l TUB dedication by President Coolldgo recently of a carillon or tower of bells In Florida cen ters attention on these sources of music and on the region In which they were developed: a strip of land that extends from the North Hea shores Inward for 50 miles or more In plains which are largely Just above high tide. On etery side one sees scores of cities, towns, and villages. In the foreground these are clearly defined, but In the middle distance they be come less distinct and on the horizon In soft and misty outline they almost disappear. In every such extended view, above town hall and city gale and ancient church, rises dominant here a rugged tower, there a lull bel fry or a graceful, slender spire. And each of these skywnrd souring struc tures becomes for the traveler a sing ing tower If. on nearer approach, he finds It crowned with that majestic Instrument of music called a carillon. The word "carillon" pronounced "car l-lon." with the "o" as In "atom" and the derivative, "cnrlllonneur," are French In origin, but now general ly accepted In Kngllsh. Landing at Rotterdam, one finds the lower of 8t Lawrence's church, whose old bells mnke not merely a great musical Instrument but by their melodies express the spirit of the country over which they sound. The traveler should mount the cir cular stone stairway leading to the heights of tower after tower to see the bolls of carillons In all their beau ty of decoration and arrangement He finds himself among a grent company of bells, fixed upon a heavy frame work and extending In parallel rows, tier above tier, completely filling the great tower room. Bells Ranged In Tiers. The little bells hang In the highest tier; the big hells Just clear the floor; the Intermediate sizes hang In tiers between. The largest bell of all Is taller than a tall man and It may weigh four, Ave, or even six or eight tons. The smallest bell has a height of 10 or 12 Indies only and perhaps a weight of less than 30 pounds. Hoon It Is realized, however, that of greater consequence than number, or size, or weight. Is the pitch relation ship of the bells; for the bells of a carillon always progress by regular semitone or chromatic Intervals. The carillon of 8t Lawrence's lower has these Intervals complete through more than three octaves, except (hut the two lowest semi I ones are lucking. The arrangement and character of the bells first attract the observer's attention. Then he begins to study how the music Is produced. He soon discovers that a carillon Is played In two ways: First, nutomatlrally by a revolving barrel connected with a lower clock, which starts the music at the hour, the half hour, and at the quarters, and sometimes even at the eighths. Recond, by a trained musician, a carllloiineur. seated at a keyboard like that of an organ. Hlx and even more notes can be struck In chords on the carillon keyboard, and, so delicate are the adjustments, that sustaining tones on the lighter hells are easily accom plished by "Iremolnndo." Automatic playing of simple folk songs, chiefly on the light bells, with now and then the addition of a deep buss tone, la what the traveler con stantly hear as he wanders through old towns In Belgium and Holland. The tower of Ht. Lawrence's church as begun In HID. and Ihe i lly placed a carillon In II In MOO. In the lower of the Rotterdam Bourse Is a smaller carillon of 27 bells, also more than two und a half centuries old. A third curlllon In Rotterdam bus Jual been placed In the new city hall. It Is larger, both In weight and In number of hells, than any carillon made In the last 100 years. Cltlss Own the Carillons. Rotterdam's three singing towers, rising one above the city hull, one above the Bourse, and one above the church ol 8t Lawrence, glvea one a clew to the variety of structures which may possess carillon. And further Investigation shows thut similar music has floated for more than two cen turies over the city gate at Knkliiil (en, the Royal paluce at Amsterdam, Ihe Weigh house at Alkmnur, the Cloth ball at Vpres (destroyed dur Towers fi ing the World war), the University li brary at Client, the Wine house at Zutphon (burned In U-D. and the Abbey at Mlddulhurg, and that the spire of not a few of the historic churches of the low countries ere singing towers. Finally, tine discovers the Important fact tluit wherever a carillon hangs. Its bells are owned by the city, Its cnrlllonneur Is an official chosen by city authority, and Ihe tower Itself Is under city control. At I VI ft the carillon Is In the spire of the new church, called "new," though over four hundred years old, because It was begun a century later than the old church, nearby. Here, fur nlaive as, are to tie seen nearly four octaves of bolls, ranged In rows above and on both sides of the dial of the tower clock. By making The Hague his renter a traveler ran easily reach every part of Holland's carillon region In day Journeys. One morning the trip may lie lo Gouila. There, In Ihe great church, one may act the wonderful Sixteenth century glass windows, the finest In Holland, alHiundlng In glori ous color, allegorical deatgn, and his toric Interest and listen as the caril lon plsys far above. Only half an hour from The Hague la Leiden, where the singing tower crowns the low snd very beautiful town ball. The Pilgrims, who, after leaving Kngland, lived for a time at Ieldcn, undoubtedly heard this music, for the city has had a carillon since l.'TS. Twenty five miles beyond l-ci-den Is Haarlem. There the carillon Is In the tower of the old church, fa mous for Its organ and models ol historic ships suspended high In Ihe groined arches of the celling.' Amsterdam, the commercial capital of Holland, Is first among present-day cities In the number of singing tow ers II posseaws. The Royal palace, Ihe old Mint tower, the Ryks museum, and the .ulder, the West, and the old church spires all have carillons. 8t Rombold's Is Bsst of Alt Most glorious of all the singing tow ers Is that which rises above 8t Rom bold's noble cathedral al Miillnes (Mechlin). A few years sgo Mallnes celebrated tha anniversary of the It-'i years of service of the distinguished carllloiineur Josef )enyn "the Pad erewskl of the cnrlllon." Ancient guilds with auiierb banners and mod ern societies of every kind marched In the procession. Thousands of peo ple filled the old streets. I louses and public buildings everywhere wen gaily decorated. This Impressive pageant was hut the beginning of events which fllle four days, during which came the In auguration of the School of Curllloa Instruction, free to all the world; ths meeting of the first Carillon congress ever assembled I Ihe opening of ths F.xposltlon of Carillon Art, lasting through September, and the playing ol visiting enrlllonneurs from France, Holland, ami Belgium. On Sunday main. In tha crowded town hull, Ihe burgomaster presented to Oenyn a gold medal from the city, and (here the Amerlcnu ambassador to Belgium spoke. Mallnes Is midway between Antweri and Brussels and distant only half an hour from each, so that multitude! from both these rltlea attend lis caril lon concerts. Of late ninny have gons also from much greater distances In K u rope and from all parts of tin world. A program of the music to be played at each concert Is published months In advance. And while tin great master plays, all Is quiet, eves In the flrnnd place. In the world today ait 1N0 odd ca rillons. Of these 1114 are In Belgium and Ihe Netherlands.
