From braced knees rne Dow-man,
leaning far out-board, with bowed
back, fought the nose of the boat in
shore as 1t plunged and took the
chute then, as it shot with the cur
rent for the pool below, two mad
men battled with their blades for the
inches-inches which meant victory
Or
With a leap the canoe hit the pool;
wavered, caught in the lip Of the
eddy; but held by the lunging blades,
sheered off, was free, and shot on; ;
then, charging through stretch of
broken water, rode the "boilers" be-
low the last pitch and out into the
easy going Of the open river.
With legs awash in the slOp picked
up in the rapids, painting, spent, the
two men smiled into each others
drawn faces.
"We licked 'em both, Lafiamme and
the Frying Panw gasped Steele.
"Good job, dat! !" grunted the Ojib-
way, proudly, between breaths. "Dey

CHAPTER XI

For a week the two voyageurs had
Travelled on half rations eked out with
an occasional pike or dore, which had
been lured with much patience from
their winter lethargy, but each morn
ing as they ruefully surveyed the
fading food supply, Steele had reit-
Grated: you can't starve two men
who've run the Frying PanV"
Then followed silent hours of pad
ding in which the thoughts Of David
centered largely on the future con-
sumption OF savory moose steaks at
Nepigon House, while for Steele, heart
hunger and the necessity for an early
solution Of the problem at Wailing
River had served as anodyne to his
craving for food.
Another week and Steele was hurry
ing east on the Canadian Pacific. Ar
irving in New York and reporting at
the museum, he readily obtained per
mission to follow up this most amaz-
ing example Of the abnormal in the
habits Of Canadian mammals, mex
tricably involved with Indian super
stition in so battling a manner as to
defy any ordinary methods of solution.

Suppose that Indian follows down

David laughed loudly. "W'en he
see us haid for de FryIn' Pan, he say: {:
'Bo-jo! Dere 60 two dead menp he

On the way west, Steele mace IRE
QueRt trips to the baggage car to talk
to a long-eared, wrinkle-face hound.
IF I had had you, old boy, last
September, up on Big Feather lake."
he often repeated regretfully, rubbing
the ears Of the great black and tan
beast there would be one less Win
digo in the Wailing River country. I
don't know what you can do on the
snow. You may freeze in that coun-
try, with your short hair, but you're
surely going to have a chance to help
US out when we lose a trail. The
huskies haven't got your nose, and
won't hold to trail as you will And
when that fog-horn bay Of yours
booms out over the hills, there's go
ing to be a general scramble for cover
among the beasts and devils that
hear It,"
The bloodhound. trained in the Ten
nessee hills, had arrived in New York
In response to an urgent telegram
from Steele to a friend who bred the
man-hunters on his southern planta-
ton. There was no doubt in Steele's
mind that the riddle of the Windigo
would have been solved in the autumn,
had he had bloodhound at Wailing
River. But the ability Of the south
ern-bred dog to hold a trail on the
strange medium Of snow or ice was a
matter outside the experience Of those
he had consulted. However as there
would be no crust until March, day
light tracking would be easy In the
new snow. 1t was for night work
when the absence of shadows oblit-
crates a snow trail, and when trail
followed wind-swept ice that Steele
had gambled on the sensitive nose Of
the bloodhound to- aid. them.

hope which had grown with the pass

A matter of'seconds and they would
take the big chute ahead; beyond
this, the suck Of the whirling water.
Once in the grip of the eddy, the
canoe would up-end and go down
into the NAV of the vortex.

ASKS ADDITIONAL
MONEY TO LIFT
|. u. FROM RUT
President Bryan Pleads for
Standing Up to That of
NeighborS.

Let's get Indiana University out
of the rut,' is the substance Of a
plea for more funds transmitted to
the State board of accounts by DR..
William Lowe Bryan, president, in
the'new budget request on file today.
In his request. covering the next
two-year period, DIR. Bryan asks in
creased State support for it's major
educational institution to make pro-
vision for higher education at least
comparable with that of the other
midwestern States"
Urges Staff Addition
Demanding $350,000 additional
money for additions to the l. U.
staff and for salary increases for
present members of the faculty, DIR.
Bryan assured the State that there
would be no indiscriminate salary
increases if the extra funds were
made available. 1t Is q notorious
fact that Indiana University instruc-
tors are the poorest paid in the mid
western zone. The other major
items are 100000 to construct and
equip a power plant at Bloomington,
Including tunnel extensions and con-
INJECTIONS with buildings; 100000 for
the 1928-1929 fiscal year, an appro-
priation of 100000 to provide much
needed classroon1s and laboratories
at Bloomington and $4,000 to con-
struct dental school building on
the campus Of the medical school at
Indianapolis.
Turns Away Students
Discussing the request, DR.. Bryan
said, 1.-THE one supreme essential
is money to hold the best Of our old
err and younger men and to bring
other such men into the educational
institutions of this State He point
cd to the fact that Indiana Univers-
ity has turned away hundreds of
prospective students during the last
two years because of overcrowding
and improper facilities for handling
The overflow Money that should
have gone for salaries has been ex-
nended increasing the staff to meet
