Uncle Ray
From Log to Liner.
Early Boats.


Nov and then bold aviators cross
an ocean by airplane or airship,
but the common way Of making such
O voyage Is on an ocean liner--a great
boat which may be close TO 100 feet
long.
Such a vessel Is a marvel to us, and
It may seem even more marvellous as
we trace the story Of how 1t grew.
Stone Age people were not able TO
write the story of how they learned
to ride on wood In water, but very
likely the first boat was q piece of
timber, perhaps tree blown into q
river by storm.
In fancy We can picture cave
man Of Europe swimming to tree
floating downstream, climbing aboard
and shouting to his friends to come
and get o ride.
Such an event may have taken place
many times in many places. but, II so,
1t was not enough to make men con-
tent. They learned to take the
branches from trees and to ride aboard
logs, perhaps using poles to push
against the river current. Later they
found the way to make RATS by tying
two or more logs together.
The 'dugout canoe" was q great
step forward. This crude boat was a
log followed out by cutting or burn
ing, or both, and 1t was easier to man
age than a solid log.
Also 1t was not so likely to roll over.
since much of the weight was taken
from the upper part.
One of my memories of Switzerland
is a visit to a museum where I saw
two dugout boats which we're used by
Swiss lake dwellers thousands of years
ago. These boats must have been of
goodly service to the folk who lived
ON houses built on platforms over
lakes.
Early white visitors to Australia re-
ported that the natives Cknown as
"Blackfellows') we're in the custom
of using solid-log boats, pointed at
the ends. Dugout canoes are in use
to this day by people living on islands
of the South Seas and also by dark
skinned natives of Africa. Dozens OF
persons can ride in long dugout.
Indians of woodland regions of
Canada and in some northerly parts of
the United States won fame for their
birch-bark canoes. These canoes are
perhaps the most graceful of all light
craft made by men. Formed out OF
the bark Of birch trees, sewed together
over a light framework Of wood and
made water-tight with the gummy
juices Of hemlock and other trees, they
made it possible for the red men TO
take far journeys by water
Indians of the Pacific Coast used
dugout canoes, some OF then more
than as feet long. In the plains re-
gion, especially the Missouri Valley
Indians used "hullboatS.' tub-shaped
affairs made from buffalo hides
stretched around willow framework.
