every hair, see the lily strand in her 
mouth, the moose flies bunched in clus- 
ters on her mane and snout. 
We had been so absorbed in the race 
that only now did we think of the other 
canoe, and seeing it far down the lake, 
signalled for it to come up. 
I T was while we were holding the 
moose in the lake till the others came 
up for a photo, that Charlie turned 
to me and said, “Did you know that 
a man once rode a moose here?” 
“No,” I grunted, absent mindedly. 
“Sure he did, — it was Mr. X , of 
New York.” 
“Well, what happened?” 
“By Criminy,” grinned Charlie, “the 
moose turned on him and rode him 
down.” 
“Was he hurt badly?” 
“Wasn’t hurt at all. The old moose 
just went over him and soused him like 
a battleship running over a rowboat. 
And at that, he bobbed up all right. 
Lucky the water was deep, like it is 
here.” 
Somehow it began to take hold of 
me, this idea of Charlie’s. I took off 
my hat. I packed my camera snugly up 
in the turn of the prow. I emptied my 
pockets, and took off my wrist watch. 
“What are you going to do?” said 
Charlie with a grin; “take a swim?” 
“I’m going to ride that moose, Char- 
lie.” Then I reached over the canoe side 
to grip her bristling mane. 
“For heaven’s sake wait a minute 
then,” said Charlie with a twinkle in 
his voice. “You don’t want to get on 
her yet. Wait till she has lost a little 
more pep.” 
We waited, and by this time the other 
canoe came up. My wife and little girl 
both with their cameras set, Fred 
Waters steering so thait we had the 
moose between the two canoes. Then I 
handed the camera over to my mate for 
safety, told them to both carefully 
measure the focus. 
“What for?” 
“I’m going to try riding that moose, 
and I want you td, be ready with the 
camera.” 
In a moment they were ready and 
once more I reached over. But again 
Charlie stopped me as the moose lunged 
half out of water. “Talk to her; just 
put your hand on her. Don’t jump right 
on her back or she’ll bust things wide 
open. Take it easy, talk to her.” 
So I talked quietly, told her every- 
thing was all right. Told her I was 
going to take a little joy ride. 
Then I patted her heaving sides till 
she no longer jumped or lunged. At 
last Charlie said, “All right.” 
Leaning over I gripped a handful of 
the bristling mane and jumped careful- 
ly from the canoe onto her back. 
For one dizzy instant she sat up in 
the water churning and pulling till I 
thought she would roll over on me. 
Then she forged ahead. But I could 
feel her laboring terribly. She reached 
back time and time again with her long 
snout as if to bite me. 
All of us got the idea at the same 
time, but Charlie worded it: “Doctor, 
she’ll drown. The water’s too deep and
