But what was the little girl doing?
He saw her hauling in on the wet rope
and she seemed to be speaking to
Prince, for he stood directly before
her, his ears erect, his tail agitated.
BY and by he barked sharply.
"Now, Priucey - Chef heard her cry.
She thrust the end of the rope into
the dogs jaws and waved her mittened
hand towards the open water and the
unhappy Chef beyond it.
Prince sprang around, faced the
strait of black water, shaking the end
of the rope vigorously. Chef saw what
she meant and he shrieked to the dog:
"Come on. Prince! Come on, good
dog! Here, sir - Il
Prince could not bark mis- reply with
the rope in his jaws, but he sprang
into the water and swan sturdily
toward Chef.
He stopped and seized the dogs fore
legs when he came near and helped
him scramble out on the ice. The end
of the rope was safely in his grasp
again.
My goodness! My goodness! 1
could sing hallelujah :" declared
Chef, his eyes streaming now. Hold
on, now. Car'lyn Mayl I'm gOin' to
drag you across. You hang right on
to that sled"
"Oh, I'll cling to it. Chet," declared
the little girl. "And do take me off
this ice, quick, for think it's floating
out with me-"
Chef drew on the rope, the sled
moved forward and plunged, with just
a little splash, into the pool.
In a few seconds he had "snaked"
the sled to the edge of the ice foe
on which he stood. He picked the sob
bling Carolyn May off the sled and
! then lifted that up too. The little girl
was wet below her waist.
"Tm-Tm just as co-old as II can
be-" she chartered. "Oh, Chet! take
me home, please!"
I'm a.going to-" chartered the lad
in return.
He dragged off his coat now, wrung
/ it rs dry as he could and wrapped it
AROUND Carolyn Mays legs before ne
seated her on the sled again. Then
he seized the rope once more and
started toward the sound of the chapel
bell
Prince began to bark. He could not
move forward much faster than Chef
did, but he faced the wind and began
to bark with persistence.
'There - there's something over
there, Chet," murmured Carolyn May.
She was all but breathless herself.
Then through the wind and storm.
came a faint hail. Prince eagerly
pursued his barking. Chef tried to re-
ply to the hail, but his voice was only
u hOarse croak.
"We've got to keep on-we've got to
keep on" muttered the lad, dragging
the sled slowly.
The dog had disappeared. Carolyn
May was weeping frankly. Chef CORN
ley was pushing slowly through the
storm, staggering at each step, scarce
~ aware in what direction he was
heading.

Shipping and scratching along beside
them.
Suddenly he came to open water. 1t
was so broad a channel that he could
not hope to leap it; and, of course, he
could not get the sled and the little
girl across.
"My!' cried Carolyn May, that
place wasn't here when we came out.
was it, Chet? 1t aust have Just come
here"
Il don't think it was here before"
admitted the boy.
Suddenly a sound reached their ears
that startled both; it even made Prince
prick up his ears and listen. Then the
dog sat up on his launches and began
to howl.
"Oh, don't Pnnce!" gasped Carolyn
May 'Who ever told you you could
sing, just because you hear a church
bell ringing?"
That's the chapel bell /" cried Chef
Gormley. "Now I'm sure I'm right.
But we must get around this open
patch In the water"
He set off along the edge of the open
water, which looked black and angry.
The ice groaned and cracked in a
threatening way. He was not sure
whether the foe they were on had com.
pIetely broken away from the Great
mass of ice in the cove and was at
ready drifting out into the lake or not.
Haste, however, he knew was i'm
perative. The tolling of the chapel
bell coming family down the wind,
Chef drew the sled swiftly along the
edge of the opening, the dog trotting
along beside them. whining. Prince
plainly did not approve Of this.
Here it is !" shouted the boy in sud-
den Joy. "Now Wen be all right,
Car'lyn MayI''
"Oh, Tn so glad, Cret," said the lit
tie girl. "For I'm getting real cold, and
this snow makes me all wet"
keep up your heart, Car'lyn May"
he begged. 81 guess Wen get through
all right now"
ooh, I'm not really afraid" the little
girl answered. "Only I'd really like to
be on shore"
Chef FASTENED on toward the sound
of the tolling bell. sharply on the
watch for other breaks in the ice.
Here was another wide-Spreading

had no idea to which direction he
should turn. And, indeed, it seemed to
him as though the opening was grow
ing wider each moment. The ice on
which they stood must be completely
severed from that further up in the in
let!
The boy had become frightened.
Carolyn May had little idea OF their
danger. Prince sat up and howled. 1t
seemed to the boy as though they were
in desperate straits, indeed.

"Oh, Chetl don't you dare get

He turned a bright face on her as

The desperate chill Of the water al

Three strokes took him across the

his feet
And then he discovered something
that almost stunned him. The line he
had looped around his wrist had slipped
off, He had no way Of reaching the

crossing back through the water.
Chef felt that he could not do it.
