By ARTHUR STRINGER THE STORT SO FAR: Because ho and hi partner, Cruger, need the money to keep Norland Airway In bnilnen, Alan Slade ka agreed to fly a oppoed named Frayn to the Anawotto country In tearcb of the breeding ground ot the trumpeter iwan. Slade auspl-do- n about Frayne ar arouied when r and bl the he watch partner, Karnell, put their tupplle on the plane. They appear to be carrying prospector' equipment.

Frayne shows no interest in obeither gold or the black ject Minty has just told him Is pitchblende. Now continue with the story. W.N.U.

Its only the good old yellow metalll ever git me and Zeke steamed up to the boilin point. Of course, said the other. He inspected his nails and snapped shut But there is more his knife blade. of what you call pitchblende in this territory? chimed in the Zeke. The dang stuff y-voiced bothers us in our strippin. From what you say," observed Frayne, I assume it to be some sort of mineral. But I remain unenlightened as to either its use or its yalue. Minty, however, was not to be sidetracked. If youd been around Great Bear for a spell, that old sourdough was saying as he reached for the egg of pitchblende, youd sure have seen em scramblin for this stuff like a scramblin for a honey tree. Goin down through five hundred feet o rock for it! And then totin it three thousand miles to that Port Hope plant where it takes sixty tons o chemicals to git one gram o what they want out of it! The ornithologists reaction to that statement seemed perfunctory. He merely shifted back a little from the heat of the stove. For this, stranger, pursued the indignant Zeke, is what they git radium from. And radiums worth thousand smackers a just thirty-fiv- e gram. But such things, my friends, stand remote from the field of my immediate interest, maintained the d ornithologist. concurred Minty, Same here, seein it takes million-dolla- r to squeeze a pinprick o color out of a trainload of ore. And the surface pitchblende in this dissharp reporttrict, that assay-offic- e ed, aint as rich in radium as the deep-lyi- n Great Bear stuff. What this seems t have, accordin to assay, is an overdose o helium. I know what helium is, of course, Frayne admitted with an But I accruing note of irritation. am not interested in such things. Slade felt the need of putting in an oar. You get more than helium, Minty, he announced, and more than radium. You get uranium. And, in pitchblende like that, uranium is just about a million times more abundant than radium. And what goods uranium? demanded Minty.

Ill have a look at my ship, he explained, before we turn in for the night. And if you two old bushwhackers will rustle us an early breakfast well push off at sunup. But Slade, as he made his way down to the lake front, was troubled by some small voice of uncertainty that refused to articulate itself. Then his thoughts went to other things. For on the shore point beside the moored plane he saw the huge figure of Karnell, with the hooded pigeon cage beside him. Feeding them, I suppose? Slade questioned as he bent lower. At the same time that he saw the cage was empty he heard the guttural voice beside him. They got away, mumbled Karnell. They slipped off, before I could stop them. Slade studied him for a moment. Thats just too bad, he observed. And in spite of the quick and hostile glance of the other man he was able to laugh a little. Yet that sense of being enmeshed in movements that were unpredictable returned to him the next mornafter his ing when, a brief half-hotake-ofhis passenger barked out an unexpected command to land. With one hand Frayne held his binoculars poised; with the other he pointed to a lake that lay off to the left, framed in its encircling sprawl of spruce ridges. That, he announced, is where we shall land. Why there? asked Slade. I think, said the ornithologist, I spotted a trumpeter swan. d smile seemed an Slades announcement of his doubts as to the truth of that claim. But he remembered Crugers warning about pilots not being supposed to wonder. Okay, said Slade as he turned into the wind and dropped lower. But youre still a long jump from the Anawotto. He could hear the mumble of foreign voices as his ship lost headway and drifted slowly in to the shoreline. d He saw the Karnell wade ashore with an ax in his hand. Two minutes later he could hear the forest stillness ring with the familiar music of an ax blade against tough northern spruce trunks. The sullen giant seemed to know just what was expected of him. In less than half an hour he had his spruce boles trimmed and lashed together in a neatly made landing platform. His movements, Slade observed, were made with the automatic precision one might expect from a military engineer. rock Slade sat on a and lit a cigarette. He sat there with an achieved air of remoteness, as he watching the made ready to land his equipment. Then the bush pilots casual gaze wandered out to the empty ridges that ended in an equally empty skyline. A nice place to summer, he observed. Frayne turned and faced him. And when Slade caught the unexpected flash of fire that came from behind the bifocal glasses he realized how some ghostly armistice between him and his passenger had ended. He didnt like the man, and he never would. When you are interested in more than engines, that passenger was you will perhaps proclaiming, learn that uncomfortable localities quite often have undisclosed advantages. Slade didnt quite know what that proclamation meant. But his smile was condoning as he tossed his cigarette end into the lake and rose to his feet. I guess youre right, Doctor," he said with a casualness that carried a note of insolence. And heres where I pass out of the picture. But before I leave you to your swans eggs Id like to tip you off to just one thing. My interest sometimes extends beyond engines.

But instead of following him she lingered on the rock point and looked up at the aerial migration above her. Those relentless wings made her think of the equally relentless advance of the white man, the steady and stubborn northward trek of pioneers in their search for d metals. It was earths affecting more than the wild life of the country. It seemed to disrupt both the modes and the mores of the natives, breaking up their tribal traditions and leaving them more and more dependent on the palefaces who took their hunting grounds away from them. Both the Eskimo and the Indian, her work along those scattered littoral villages had taught her, were a perishing people. Yet she liked these people. They so stubbornly claimed their human right to survive; they stood so valorous in their fight against hunger and cold. They were, she felt, the most courageous people she had ever known. They demanded so little of life that a plug of trade tobacco could make them happy for could turn a a week, a mouth-orga- n d funeral into a fiesta, a handkerchief could bring raptd ness to a face under its locks.

What would you say, questioned Dr. Morlock, if I flew him out to Fort Smith and brought him back as good a hunter as ever? I say you work good magic, said the daughter of the wilderness. But difficulties had interposed. Umanak had no wish to enter the devil-birof the white doctor and be flown away from his people. Rather than be taken away from the friendly fish smell and the husky howls of his home he would prefer remaining with darkened eyes.
