that was left now was the fawn. Now
for dead shot. Biff-bang-" Surely
| hit him" Then yelling for his pals
and telling them not to move, "he had
two albright, he started looking for
the deer in the wrong direction. The
boys told him, but no, he knew he was
right. When going in round about
way he spied the fawn, who looked
real excited, raised his gun once again
for sure shot when the fawn darted
away He had merry chase of mile
and then the deer gave out. He caught
him albright. Here we must say that
the fawn had some feeling for other
folks as he ran exactly toward the camp.
This saved Ira a drag of some distance.
Well, he got the doe and fawn, but
the buck was a little to quick for him.
Now don't dare say, but think that if
Ollie and Orin had done as told and
stood still they would both be standing
there yet. We are all pleased to think
that they had presence of mind enough
to move. Ii that fawn had not dropped
dead it is hard telling where Ira would
be now.
Here we must also congratulate Orrin
upon his Improvements in cooking.
The reason for his fine qualities in
cooking hos been discovered by a party
who found book in his possession
called, "The Complete American and
Canadian Encyclopedia of Valuable In
structions." This book can be bought
for $1.00 Maybe few more would
like to possess one like it,
As for Muma (or mamma, as he was
called, we are all sorry to think that
he received an injured arm when one
OF the crowd killed large doe. The
boys had very good time)in the even
ings as reported, but Mamma. DR..
Dicken was called upon to dust his
arm.
You can imagine how interested the
boys were as to forget the say-"The
North wind doth blow, and we shall
have snow What shall poor Robin do
then?' The question now was, what
shall we poor fellows do now?" The
river was frozen over so hard that a
band of Indians could have had a splen-
did time showing us one of their old
time War dances. AS there are none
around here, we were cheated out of
having that so-called treat. The only
way out, was TO walk out
The eight boys dug out away from
tall timber to a nearby station, only
thirty-two miles away, to get where
civilization was. Walking was good
part of the way, but four of the boys
paid $1,000 each to drive the last seven
miles.
The party conducted by Mr.. Ohls,
also had to walk out. They made sleds
and took their deer out with them.
After weeks waiting for the river to
break up in order to take boats and 90
after their hunting outfits, Mr. Ohls
and others made two unsuccessful trips
to the Falls. The third proved alright
and after day and night travelling on
the river, breaking ice as they went :
along, they arrived in Dollarville at
seven O. clock in. the evening. They
had no mishap on their journey except
two motor boats sunk. One boat has
already been taken out, but the other
is still in the river.
Here we wish to say a few words
about the camp of eight They are a
bright set; on the alert as to what step
to take, which would lead to luck, as
they call it. Why, honestly they were
somewhat like a drove of bees huming
in the June sun, or band of Indian
warriors on their return from success
full trip which was so perilous as to
make your blood run cold, (if told)
when one Of the crowd would kill a
deer.
We all hope that they shall 90 again
to the wilderness of the North and
bring a few more of their particular
friends along with them. Cloverland
is beautiful in the summer but its
grandeur can't be described in the win
ter with all its picturesque scenes.
Next year we shall be again situated
in its wilds few miles from the Big
Sea Water or Lake Superior.
Call upon us if possible. A good
time is guaranteed.
From One of the Bunch.
