In writing to Advertisers mention Forest and Stream, 


greyed quickly as the breeze passed 
rustling softly back through the trees. 
Bill rose, scraped the litter away from 
the fire, pushed the coals together and 
rolled into his blanket. The camp was 
silent—an occasional snap from the 
fire—a vagrant breeze whispering up 
through the tall black spruces. 
CAME broke rapidly in the morning 
and we traveled fast until nearly 
noon. Then we heard a low humming 
noise from down river. Cabins and 
clearings increased along the shore—a 
pasture witn two cows grazing con- 
tentedly. Then a turn in the river and 
a scattering of roof-tops appeared, 
sprinkling a broad level expansion of 
the river valley. In the center rose a 
tall steel stack from which clouds of 
smutty smoke rolled up into a blue sky. 
The busy hum of the mill came up to 
us, how punctuated by the intermittent 
scream of the whirring saw. 
Nottawa was the end of the first 
jump of the trip—the shortest and 
easiest Jump—250 miles from Kipawa. 
Here was the last chance to turn back. 
Here at this last crumb of civilization 
it seemed like the end of one trip and 
the beginning of a new. And it was 
just that. 
Our grub was practically exhausted. 
From the freight station we got our 
new stock of beans, peas, rice, flour, 
bacon, etc., that we had shipped up to 
Nottawa from the wholesale houses at 
Ottawa. Big packing cases—it looked 
like outfitting an army, but it was 
a long jump to Weymontachingue, 
through a country uninhabited even by 
stray Indian trappers—a _ country 
where the silent dip of a paddle takes 
the place of the screeching locomotive. 
But that’s another story—

empty longing? We sat back from the 
table with that feeling of placid con- 
tentment which comes with a full 
stomach. 
Uncle John puffed slowly at his corn- 
cob. 
“’Coon,” he mused, “is the best eatin’ 
of the game, just like trout is the best 
of the fish.” 
“Yes,” I answered, “and ’coon hunt- 
ing the best of the hunting. 
It will identify you.
