CHAPTER XVIII.
The Last Of McTrigger.

Sixty miles farther north Kazan
lay ut the end of his fine steel chain,
watching little Professor McGill mix
Ing pail of tallow and bran. A
dozen yards from him lay the big
Dane, his huge jaws drooling in antici-
patton of the unusual feast which Nc
Gill was preparing. He showed signs
Of pleasure when McGill approached
him with quart of the mixture, and
he gulped 1t between his huge jaws.
The little man with the cold blue eyes
and the gray-blond hair stroked his
back without fear. His attitude was
different when he turned to KaZan.
His movements were filed with eau
ton, and yet his eyes and his lips
were smiling, and he gave the wolf
dog no evidence of his fear, If It could
be called fear.
The little professor, who was up in
the north country for the Smithsonian
Institution, had spent third of his
life among dogs. He loved them. and
understood them. He had written n
number Of magazine articles on dog
Intellect that had attracted wide at

largely because he loved dogs, and
understood them more than most men,
that he had bought Kazan and the big
Dane on the night when Sandy Nc
Trigger and his partner had tried to
get them to fight to the death in the
Red Gold City saloon. The refusal Of
the two splendid beasts to kill each
other for the pleasure of the three
hundred men who had assembled to
witness the fight delighted him. He
had already planned paper on the
incident. Sandy had told him the story
of Kazan's capture. and OF his wild
mate, Gray Wolf. and the professor
had asked him thousand questions.
But each day Kazan puzzled him
more. No amount of kindness on his
part could bring responsive gleum In
Kazan's eyes. Not once did Kazan
signify willingness to become friends.
And yet he did not snarl at McGlll, or
snap at his hands when they came
within reach. Quite frequently Sandy
McTrigger came over to the little
cabin where McGill was staying. and
three times Kazan leaped at the end
Of his chain to get at him, and his
white fangs cleaned as long as Sandy

quently cleansed. There should, in
fact. be no part of any food container
that cannot be cleaned. For this rea-
son the simplest boxes and baskets are
often better than the more elaborate
ones with compartments in which to
keep dishes, knives, forks and spoons.
With the increase in automobile travel,
well-constructed boxes and baskets
which can be easily cleaned have come
on the market with compartments for
keeping food hot or cold and for hold
ing liquids. These are. of course, suit
able only for children who ride back
and forth. and particularly suitable
where several lunches are put up in
one household.

CHAPTER xviI-continued.


That night she slept again where
Kazan had lain, and three times she
called for him without answer. A
heavy dew fell, and 1t drenched the
last vestige of her mates scent out
Of the sand. But still through the
day that followed, and the day that
followed that, blind Gray Wolf clune
to the narrow rim of white sand. On
the fourth day her hunger reached q
point where she gnawed the bark from
willow bushes. 1t was on this day
that she made discovery. She was
drinking, when her sensitive nose
touched something in the waters edge
that was smooth, and bore faint odor
of flesh. 1t was one of the big north.
ern river CLAIMS. She paved it ashore
shifting at the hard shell. Then she
crunched it between her teeth. She
had never tasted sweeter meat than
that which she found inside, and she
began hunting for other clans. She
found many of them, and ate until she
was no longer hungry. For three days
more she remained on the bar.
And then, one night, the call came
to her. 1t set her quivering with a
strange new excitement-somethi
that may have been a new hope, and
b the moonlight she trotted nervously
up and down the shining strip of sand,
facing now the north, and now the
south, and then the east and the west
her head flung up. listening, as If in
the soft wind of the night she was
trying to locate the whispering lure
Of wonderful voice. And whatever
1t was that came to her came from
out of the south and east. or there
across the barren, far beyond the
outer edge Of the northern timber line
was home. And off there, in her
brute way, she reasoned that she must
find Kazan.
The call did not come from their
old windfall home in the swamp. It
came from beyond that, and in fash
ing vision there rose through her blind
ness picture Of the towering Sun
Rock, Of the winding trail that led
to 1t, and the cabin on the plain. It
was there that blindness had come to
her 1t was there that day had ended,
and eternal night had begun. And
1t was there that she had mothered
her first-born. Nature had registered
these things so that they could never
be wiped out of her memory, and when
the call came 1t was from the sunlit
world where she had last known light
and life and had last seen the moon
and the stars in the blue night of the
skies,
Ana to that call she responded, leav-
ing the river and its food behind her
straight out into the face of darkness
and starvation, no longer fearing death
or the emptiness of the world she
could not see; for ahead of her, two
hundred miles away, she could see the
Sun Rock, the winding trail, the nest
of her first-born between the two big
rocks-and Kazan!

LUNCH HOUR FOR
SCHOOL k|DD|Es
Government Food Specialists Dis
cuss Various Foods for
Children.
SUGGESTED BILLS OF FARE
Sklmpino Meals for Youngsters Is
Not a Necessary War Measure
and 10 lnadvisable-MetaI
Boxes Most Favored.

The school lunch has always had its
problems for the mother who is eager
to provide a wholesome noon repast for
her school kiddies. Almost always the
school lunch Is q hurriedly arranged
item among the mothers early morn
ing duties, and 1t is sometimes difficult
to give this meal the attention 1t de-
serves.
Wars food conservation problems
have not helped in the matter of
school-lunch preparation, but If any of
ity to food regulations, 1t is the grow
ing child who eats one of his meals
away from home each school day. In
the opinion of the food experts of the
United States department of agricul-
ture. skimping meals for the young
sters is not a necessary war measure
and is inadvisable. The food special
lists have discussed In publication of
the department of agriculture the
foods that should make up the school
lunch. the preparation and packing of
lunches, and serving lunches partly or
wholly prepared at schools. Some sug-
gested bills of fare for the basket
lunch are given in another column.
Number Of Foods Carried.
The number of foods that can be
easily carried has been enlarged of
late by the possibility of using paraffin
paper and parchment paper, in which
moist foods can be wrapped so as to
prevent them from sticking to other
foods. Paper cups, jelly glasses and
so on. are also help, for In them
sliced raw fruits. stewed fruits. GUS
tards, cottage cheese and other half
solid foods can be carried.
The quality of the bread used In the
basket lunch is especially important
because 1t is commonly served in the
form of sandwiches and is, therefore,
to be considered not only as food In
Itself but also as n means of keeping
other much-needed foods in good and
appetlzing condition, or of serving
them In attractive ways.
Variety in breads, too. is more i'm
portant at this than at other meals
because Of the danger of monotony.
Wheat bread, whole-wheat bread corn,
rye, UT oHtiileul DTehuS, nut, rulSln
and date breads; beaten biscuit, rolls,
crisp bnking-powder biscuit, or soda
biscuit, and toast, zwieback and crack
ers may be used in turn to give variety.
Rolls followed out can be made to
hold a large amount of sandwich fill
ing, which is an advantage at times.
Advantage Of Boxes.
Many kinds of lunch boxes, pals,
and baskets are now on the market
The chief advantage OF most boxes and
pals is that they are made of metal
and can therefore, be easily cleaned
and scnlded to keep them In safe con-
dition. Some boxes have the advan-
tage over pals that they can be folded
when empty and strapped with the
school books. Baskets are ventilated
and for this reason suitable for carry
ing moist foods which are likely to
spoil. There is no reason, however,
why small holes cannot be punched In
metal boxes or pals to let in the air.
Baskets can. Of course, be washed or
scsided, but not so easily as metal

by beating them until light with hot

for every medium-sized potato. To

WnKM COUNTY JOINS FLOOD
CONTROL ON RIVER SYSTEMS

Prof Herbert A. Hard, state drain.
age engineer for North Dakota. was
IN the city last week and appeared
before the board Of county commits
sioners in an effort to induce them to
appropriate the sum Of $500 % VIII
kin county's share Of the expense in
an adequate food control survey Of
the territory drained by the Otter Tail
the Bois de Sioux and the Red riv-
ers.
Mr.. Hard's efforts were successful
and Wilkin county is now a member
of the Tri-state Flood Control Asso-
citation, which has for its object the
prevention Of the disastrous spring
Freshets in this part of the north
west.
In an interview with q Gazette re-
porter, Mr.. Hard said:
"The plans Of the Tri-State Flood
Control association are taking defin-
ite shape to cooperate with the Unit
ed States government in securing its
aid in doing the necessary engineer
ing work, with cost estimates on the
feasible prospects for control of
flood in the entire Red River valley.
The committee having in charge the
work of organization consists of Hon.
o. G. Neuman, Of Wheaton, E. Stoebe,
OF White Rock, and myself, as chair
man. This committee was appointed
at the big Tri-State meeting held at
Wheaton year ago. This meeting
was we'll attended by representative
men Of the three states.
1t is not often that Uncle Sam Of
fers aid, but this time the Depart
men of Agriculture has offered many
thousands of dallors for needed en-
cheering work, provided the three
states will get together in a Valley
wide plan and contribute. a little to
its own work.
The committee named was author
lied. at the Wheaton meeting, to
Federal terms. It decided to do this
