UT@HE next morning dawned clear
ard breathless. AS soon as the
wind died the logs had begun
to drift slowly out into the open

covered with the scattered timbers

the clank of the bars and ratchet was

the two men who had raised the gate,

booms that should concentrate the logs

and waited patiently for more.
Jack Orde wandered back and forth
over the work. his hands clasped be-

between his teeth. To the edge of the

stood a two story mill structure. y
crew of lumbermen lounged about two
fires ct the upper end of the pond
idle because Of the strong adverse
wind and the unexpected weakness Of
the current. which had arrested the
progress of their thousands of logs.
Suddenly a solitary figure appeared
around a river bend. His progress was
jerlIy and on an uneven zigZag, accord
ing as the logs lay, by leaps. short
runs, brief pauses, as a riverman goes.
Finally he stepped ashore just below
the camp, stamped his feet vigorously
free of water and approached the
group around the cooking fire.
The newcomer was a man some
where about thirty years of age.
squarely built. big of bone, compact in
bulk. His face was burly, jolly and
