Foo and Ice,

Fog and Ice.
ION the morning of the fifteenth day
in the fog I was on the bridg. when
smelled ice. at once sent boy to
call the captain, who had just turned
in, and when he came on deck he, too,
noticed 1t. That rendered our posi-
ton more perilous than before, but all
we could do was to keep even a bet
ter lookout than ever. While we were
on the fo'c'sle head right before US
loomed white wall that sparkled and
glimmered duly in the dim light. Be-
fore we could shout to the man at
the wheel to put her hard down the
crash came. We were then making
about eight knots, and the force of
the collision was such that 1t stove in
the vessels bow clear up to the heel
of the foremost. Both the captain and
myself only escaped by springing back
like shot.
1.-THE vessel was a total wreck and
had only few minutes to live. The
scene on her decks was terrible; the
masts had all fallen, and confusion
reigned. Cries from the women,
curses and yells from the crew, and
above all the roar of the surf against
the berg made chaotic scene never
to be forgotten. The captain was the
only cool one on board. The accident
seemed to have lifted weight from
his shoulders. Men can often face
a real danger much easier than they
can an anticipated one.
"He took command of few Of the
men and soon had the long boat,
which had been secretly prepared for
any such contingency, launched, and
the women were hustled in like a
flash. was given command and told
to shove off, but the captains wife
would not leave him, and we had to
wait until the other boats were
launched and every one safe from the
vessel before the captain would come
in and allow us to shove off. We were
not more than fifty yards from the
vessel when she threw up her stern
and went down, nose first.
I'VE were, of course, cast down, but
soon started to look ahead and try to
figure out what would become of us.
There were ten of us in the long boat
two women, the captain, myself and
six sailors. We had three beakers of
water and quite large amount Of
food, so had no fear of starving.

nNE quiet summer. evening
- crowd of us girls and boys
were out for a drive. sWe were
having such a good time that we
did not notice where the drive.
was going. Suddenly we stopped
laughing, in surprise and alarm.
for we were on a road which con-
tanned many bridges, one of
which badly needed repairs and
was avoided as much as possible.
Nevertheless we were filed with
curiosity for we had not seen it
FOR a long time. Each one of us
had different story to tell about
things that had happened there
and, that we were all badly
frightened, I will admit, but we
could not turn back, for the
grade was too narrow. We set
our, teeth and tried to be calm.
When we reached the bridge we
saw, to our great amusement and
/ joy, that the old bridge had been
taken. away and a strong, new
one built in its place. How we
did laugh! We had truly tried
to .eross a bridge before
we came to it, Ever since that
for one, have never worried
about bridges before I reached
them. Carrie Siechert,
