ter Stenson who called the fire de-

started out to Fish Creek to cele-
braee. They fshed along the Creek
nutil 8 o'clock and when they wished
to go home they found they were
lost. They wandered through the
woods and got tangled up in the
sloughs. Flounder;ng about with
water up TO their waists, the boys
reached sand bar but the tide be-
gan coming up and they couldn't
move either way. They became
frantic. They called for help to
some of the cars passing by along
the road which they knew was near
because sof the sound of the motors,
but which they were unable to reach
Some of the motorists apparently
stopped but went on again. FINALLY
Lester Stenson heard their calls
He asked their names and said he
would gos to town for aid. The fire
department came out and boat
house was broken into and after some
time the boys were located on the ban
near the mouth of Fish Creek ane
