half for breakfast. A small cookie 
which I had failed to eat at noon I 
also saved for breakfast. 
Since I was once lost for a few hours 
in the woods and had time te reflect 
on what I needed most under such cir- 
cumstances, I always carry a little tin 
box of salt when hunting. It helped 
me out that evening, for while the In- 
dian would not have hesitated on eat- 
ing his portion of the partridge with- 
out salt, I would have had great diffi- 
culty in doing’ so. 
Of course it did not take long to 
get on the outside of our evening meal. 
However, we talked about foods for 
some time and in place of a dessert 
course the Indian told me how good 
roasted ‘“‘beeber” tail would taste. He 
also entertained me with a number of 
his hunting experiences. He even kept 
up my hopes by saying, “We geet dat 
son-of-a-gun of a wolf to-morrow; may- 
be he dead now.” 
OR a while we stood on the bank of 
that little lake and watched a mag- 
nificent display of northern lights, the 
aurora borealis. Colossal searchlights 
flashed, beautiful bars of light crossed 
and recrossed the heavens. Grotesque 
forms of light appeared. Once the 
head and antlers of a giant moose 
showed in the sky with remarkable 
clearness. 
The great northern owl hooted to 
drive his small victims from cover. 
The wolves howled as they coursed 
after their kill not far from our camp- 
| fire. 
Before lying down by the fire I 
thought of wolves and counted my 
shells, I had eight left, five in the gun. 
The story of three men killed by 
wolves in this province the year before 
came to my mind. I also picked out 
a nearby cedar in case I should find 
climbing desirable. While it is true 
that wolves practically never attack 
man unless they are starving, I felt 
that my dreams would be of a more 
pleasant nature if I had a ladder 
handy. 
In trying to dry my wet socks over 
the camp fire, the process was some- 
what overdone and holes were burned 
in them... The night grew colder. 
When one’s front became warm he 
would turn the other side toward the 
fire. Once when asleep I forgot where 
I was and rolled up to the edge and 
almost into the blaze. The heat quick- 
ly awakened me, 
The long night wore on. At day- 
break I roused the Indian who was 
snoring peacefully, with a log for a 
pillow. Our breakfast, one cup of tea 
and one-half of a cookie apiece, was 
soon over. 
We started back to find our blazed 
tree on the wolf trail. Without a 
compass or a trail mark of any kind,
