of the first night out was turned into 
an overwhelming desire for sleep. I 
found a soft, grassy spot—rolled into 
my blanket and pulled a canoe over me. 
For a moment the peepers played silv¬ 
ery tones through the dark silence and 
then into my dreams. 
We divided the seven men into two 
groups—four men in one and three in 
the other, a tent to each group and 
each group having a separate equip¬ 
ment and their own grub—practically 
two outfits traveling together. This 
arrangement may at first appear cum¬ 
bersome and unnecessary, but from the 
experience of six summers of such 
work in the bush I can without hesita¬ 
tion advise it to any gang of over five 
men. One outstanding reason is that 
of safety in case of separation. An¬ 
other perhaps less evident one is that 
you can get cooperation in groups of 
three or four where it is difficult or 
impossible with more where each is his 
own boss. They tumble over each other 
trying to do the same thing or go to 
the opposite extreme and figure that 
“someone else ought to do it, not me.” 
Then with two smaller groups there 
always seems to be a natural and 
healthy atmosphere of competition to 
excel in the work of the camps—in 
making the stews, doing the baking, 
cutting wood and even in washing 
dishes. There is a certain satisfaction 
and pride when everything works 
smoothly, camp is made quickly and 
well, the canoes drawn up, the fire 
made, the pots started, a place for 
beds cleared down and maybe some lit¬ 
tle convenience made, such as a couple 
of logs cut and piled against two trees 
as a back rest facing the fire—and 
a corresponding respect for the other 
gang when their camp goes up easily 
and well. There was also a high de¬ 
gree of cooperation between camps. 
The big cooking fire was used in com¬ 
mon, the tents were placed close to¬ 
gether; to the outsider the camp was 
one—to us, two in one. 
Our cooking outfit (speaking of the 
three man camp) consisted of four 
nesting aluminum pots, the largest 
holding four quarts and having a ten- 
inch diameter, an iron frying pan two 
inches deep and twelve inches dia¬ 
meter, three nesting tin cups, three 
nesting tin pans, of seven-inch dia¬ 
meter and two inches deep, capable of 
holding everything from soup to fish. 
Then there were three high-speed large 
capacity soup spoons and three five- 
inch bladed pocket knives. 
Both camps cooked on one fire made 
beneath a pole swung between two 
forked sticks driven into the ground 
from four to six feet apart. The fire 
was made long in order to accommo-
