The Voice of the Pack
BY EDISON MARSHALL

get EN- Maybe we can keep 'em
blufed." .....a....
But rs the hours passed, It became
increasingly difficult to forget the wolf
pack. Ii was only a matter of turning
the head and peering for an instant
into the shadows to catch a glimpse
of one of the creatures. Their usual
fear of men, always their first emo
ton, had given way wholly TO a hunt
ing cunning; an effort TO procure their
game without too great risk of their
own lives. In the desperation of their
hunger they could not remember such
things as the fear of men. They
spread out farther, and at last Dan
looked up to find one of the gray
beasts waiting, like shadow himself,
IN the shadow Of a tree not one hun
dred feet from the sled. SnOwbird
whipped out her pistol.
"Don't darer Dams voice cracked
out to her. He didn't speak loudly; yet
the words came so sharp and com
handing, so like pistol fire itself, that
they penetrated into her consciousness
and choked back the nervous refexes
that In an instant might have lost
them one of their three precious shells.
She caught herself with a sob. Dan
shouted at the wolf, and 1t melted into
the shadows.
"You won't do it again, Snowbird"
he asked her very humbly. But his
meaning was clear. He was not as
skilled with pistol as she; but If her
nerves were breaking, the gun must
be taken from her hands. The three
shells must be saved to the moment Of
utmost need
NO" she told him, looking straight
into his eyes ~ won't do 1t again."
He believed her. He knew that she
spoke the truth. He met her eyes with
n half smile. Then, wholly without
warning, Fate played its last trump.
Again the wilderness reminded. them
of its might, and their brave spirits
were almost broken by the utter re-
morselessness OF the blow. The girl
went on her face with crack Of wood.
The Fayette falcon. (Somerville, Tenn.) 190?-current, 1921-05-06

Her snow shoe had been cracked by
her fall Of the day before, when run
ming to the fire, and whether she
struck some other obstruction In the
snow, or whether the cracked wood
had simply given way under her
weight, mattered not even enough for
them to investigate. As In all great
disasters, only the result remained.
The result in this case was that her
snowshoe, without which she could not
walk at all In the snow. was irrepara-
bly, broken.
Fate has stacked the cards against
u.s." Lennox told them, after the first
moments horror from the broken
snowshoe.
But no one answered him. The girl,
white-faced. kept her wide eyes on
Dan. He seemed to be peering into the
shadows beside the tran, as II he were
watching for the gray forms that now
and then glided from tree to tree. In
reality, he was not looking for wolves.
lie was gazing down into his own soul,
measuring his own spirit for the trial
that lay before him.
The girl, unable TO step with the
broken snowshoe, rested her weight on
one foot and hobbled like a bird with
broken wings across to him. No sight
Of all this terrible journey had been
more dreadful in her fathers eyes
than this. II seemed to split open
the strong heart Of the man. She
touched her hand to his arm.
I'm sorry. DAN she told him. you

lust one little sound broke from his
throat-a strange. deep gasp that
could not be suppressed. Then he
caught her hand in his and kissed it
again and again. do you think care

Hit by Wise : Frauds

anything above the equivalent of $40,
or some such modest sum, It is taken
and receipt given which he may cash
In money of the country on leaving 1t.
Sometimes the inspector merely pock-
cts the money, or will take bride to
let the traveller proceed with all his
cash.
Americans of experience have
adopted the plan of carrying only
checks or drafts and thus avoid this
annoyance.
The oldest form of travel swindle
takes the form of trains stopping due
to lack Of coal. Then the train crew
plays cards until the passengers take
up collection with which to buy coal.
This swindle has been improved upon.
An official takes up tickets and then a
second official, who denounces the first
one as fraud, makes the passengers
pay second time.

arriving here.
She came to this city on board the

at Odessa a number of officers and
soldiers who had formerly served In
south Russia under General wrangel,
antiBolshevik leader. She declared,
French, italian and British citizens

said, "the few Americans who were

about the weather, who kick because
1t Is too hot, too cold or too windy, as
the case might be, are reminded by
the National Geographic society that
the weather is not home-brewed.
Most of 1t comes sweeping In from
other countries, blowing up beyond
the three-mile limit without passport

come from the north and southwest,
but now and then the wind In the
Gulf Of Mexico and the South Attain

trouble.
But, say the learned men Of the so
ciety, 1t Is worth noting that none Of

fact that the great majority of dis
turbances that enter the states origi-
nate in Alaska, or In the great warm
cauldron of the North Pacific, between
the Aleutian islands and Hawaii,

So the weather Is not subject to reg
