Life In the Icy Arctic.

In the morning was generally the
one to waken first and would either
start the alcohol lamp myself or call
Astrup for that purpose. Our morning
meal consisted of a lump Of pemmi-
can. six biscuits, two ounces OF butter
and two cups Of tea each. As soon az
this was finished everything was re-
packed on the sledge. then read the
odometer. aneroid and thermometer
and, taking the guidon. which had
waved and huttered over the kitchen
throughout our hours Of rest, from its
place. stepped forward and the next
march was commenced. After from
four to six hours Of marching we
would halt for half an hour to eat our
simple lunch Of pemmican and give
the dogs rest and then after four to
six hours Of travelling halt again and
repeat the already described route

So when the war broke out between

They were placed at intervals Of
about 361 feet and thus held the wire
