LAP. who was WELDING the ak, uttered q
cry. Then he struck again. The boys
all heard 1.-THE sound of the steel blade
striking wood Hurredly they pulled away the
earth, and then their surprised eyes fell upon
a board, standing upright with the earth
packed around it.
This is something, all right" cried Skeeter.
"See IL YOU can dig around the board"
But that would not work. Soon they had
torn away the earth until huge pile lay on
the floor OF the cave, bat all they had sue
cee0ed in doing was uncover two other boards,
upright beside the first.
1T looks as though these had been put in
as supporting walls for the cave long time
ago." said Skeeter. IF that's ii, it won't do
us any good to tear them away, and 1t may
just bring the roof down on our heads.
But that air must come from somewhere"
protested Dave.
I've got It'll" exclaimed Skeeter Perhaps
there is a passage of some kind beyond these
boards. Dig around the bottom, Hap. Maybe
We can get them loosened that way"
ON hands and knees the three boys toiled.
Soon they had removed the dirt from
beneath one of the boards, bat it failed to
move when they tried it. Skeeter took the
ak from Hap and struck the beard heavy
blow. It gave back hollow sound
Hear that?" he cried. That means it's not
up against dirt on the other side Let's attack it
from the top"
A moment later they had pulled away the
earth from the top of the board. Then, by pTy-
ing with the AK and pulling at the bottom and
the top. they tried to dislodge it. Suddenly it
gave way. and they tore 1t free from the other
boards on either side Dave turned the light
into the hole left by the boards removal
"Golly!" exclaimed Skeeter in an awed vOice
Its a passage, all right. LOok-its high enough
to walk in and 1T runs straight back into the
hill"
IT wonder where it goes?" said Dave.
"I don't know, but it may be the way out"
said Skeeter. Lets get these other boards on
and find out"
