and in few hours we saw from an
unusual uplift of Ice blocks q broad,
dark line separating the packs-a tre-
mendous cut several miles wide, which
seemed at the time to bar all farther
progress. We had a folding canvas
boat on the sleds. but In q temperature
Of 4S degrees below zero no craft could
be lowered into water without fatal
results. All Of the ice about was drm-
ly cemented together, and over 1t q
way was forged to the shore Of the
great lead.
Camp Beside the Lead.
Camp was made on a secure old field,
and over its huge ice cliffs the crsck
seemed. like long river winding be-
tween palisades Of blue crystal A
thin sheet of yellow ice had already
spread over the mysterious deep, and
q profusion of fantastic frost crystals
were arranged In punches resembling
flowers. Through this young ice dark
vapors rose like steam through
screen of porous fabrics and fell In
feathers Of dust along the sparkling
shores. Etukhishook went east and I
went west to examine the lead for q
safe crossing.
There were several narrow places,
while here and there foes had been
adrift in the lead and were now fixed
by the young ice. Ahwelah remained
to make our snow house comfortable.
In exploring the shore line partial
ly bridged place was found about
mile from camp. but the young Ice was
too elastic for safe track. The tenn
perature, however. fell rapidly with
the setting sun, and the wind was just
strong enough to sweep Of the heated
vapors. A better atmospheric condi-
ton could not be afforded to quickly
thicken the young Ice.
The groaning ice and the eagerness
to reach the opposite shores kept us
awake for a long time. With the ear
resting on the frozen sea the vibrations
and noises of the moving pack were
not unlike those Of an earthquake.
Breakfast was served early. and soon
after we were on the thin ice to test It's
strength. Though the Ice was hardly
safe. 1t did not seem wise to wait long
er, for the western skies were darken-
ing with a wind that might destroy
the new ice and compel halt for
long time.

Quickly the camp furnishings were

the upper surface Of Grant Land under

same for the men. with just taste Of
other things. Fortunately. we were
well stuffed for the race with fresh
meat in the lucky run through game
lands.
At first no great hardship followed
the changed routine. We filed up suf-
fciently on two cold meals and used
superfuous bodily tissue. It was no
longer possible to jump on the sled
for an occasional breathing spell. as
we had done along the land. With
overloaded sleds the drivers must push
and pull at the sleds to aid the dogs,
and searched the troubled ice for an
easy route. cutting here and there with
the ice ak to permit the passing Of the
sleds.

We are finally stripped for the race.
Man and dog must walk along togeth-

How It Started.-Now, when Jacob
had given the "savory kid soup" to
Isaac, and the latter, pleased with the
gift, had given to his son the much
sought after paternal blessing, 10, Esau
stuck his head through the tent flap and
did pour molten words upon the trick
which had scabbed him Of his birth
right And after some hours, when his
anger was well-nigh spent, he shot the
topic sentence straight:
why did you do it?"
Then did Isaac call him near and look
into his face. Also did Isaac smack his
lips and point to the remains of the re-
past and say:
II love my Esau, but oh, you kid"
Whereupon Noah, who happened to
be strolling by, carefully tucked the jest
into oiled paper and did put it into the
Ark, whence, with much odor and more
odium, it was brought forth by humor-
lists some 1000 years later-St. Louis
