the time he had gathered wood and dry moss and feathered his cave floor with spruce branches his joints ft It rusty and his movements slowed down He ate an inch of his choco-late added wood to the fire and crawled into his cave where he nested down in his bed of spruce needles and moss There quick wave after wave of utter weariness wiped memory from his mind The fire was out and the sun was He emerged up when he wakened from his smother of moss and sat up refreshed by his sleep Having breakfasted with studious frugality he realized that he must widen his margin of safety in the matter of food supplies for the future His one possibility there he felt would be fish from the lake But his first tries were fruitless Then it came home to him that m his haste he had resorted to water too shallow for his purposes So he wound up his line and rounded the island until he came to a more promising pool In five minutes he had hooked a fish heavy enough to threaten his pole He stood a little drunk when it finally lay on the rock ledge beside For that gasping white body meant more than a meal to him It meant life it meant hope it meant final deliverance from a prison of hunger For he had

felt his only hope While his first need would be a reserve of food the one thing essential to his escape was a raft As Tumstead must have figured out his be without prisoner would swim in strength for a cold northern water Even though he survived that swim to land sodden and exhausted on an inhospitable shore without fire and ample food would be to invite disaster On his island stood no timber of conseBut spindling as they were quence he could collect and trim enough spruce boles to make a raft capable of carrying his provisions and keeping his lighter and his clothing dry It w’ould not be substantial enough to sustain his own weight But he could strip and push it ahead of him as he swam That day and the next day and the day that followed were crowded The early morning hour with toil of the day he gave to catching fish which he later dressed and smoked and stowed away on his starchigan He fished again in the evening at an hour when hrs strikes proved At most frequent when the sun had warmed the shallows he dug and washed his bulWhen that was done rush roots And when he gathered firewood that was done he turned to digging which roots he patiently spruce knotted and braided into lengths of wattap From them with equal patience he wove a nuiskamoot which could hang from his shoulders like and hold secure his a musette-bapossessions and a quantity of food The next morning Slade made ready for his trek He had chosen as the best hour for pushing off since the surface water by that time would have lost a little of its chill and plenty of daylight at the end of his would remain journey to find a suitable camp site and get settled for the night The water was colder than he This promoted him had expected to throw more vigor into his arm strokes But half a mile from shore he found an ache of fatigue creepThat frighting into his muscles ened him a little He leaned on the raft end and rested He looked about to place his landmark knowing that he must keep active that he must keep blood coursing through his chilled limbs that he must push on to the end He was within a mile of his goal He thought of a hot campfire with flames bursting through spruce logs v piled high Then all such thoughts abruptly For out of the blue that ended arched above him he heard a and familiar drone It was a drone that grew louder as he listened and became shot through with and of throb a mounted alpower most to a roar High in the sky above the serrated ridge tops he saw a plane is— For that gasping white body Slade waved and shouted But the wings neither dipped nor banked Slade started swimming again in a cold fury of defeat Something not unlike indignation gave strength to his strokes as he fought his desHe kept on perate way forward refusing to recognize the claws of pam that tore at his entrails or the weariness that made his breath come in quick and shuddering gasps He kept on until his raft end grounded on a sandspit and he stumbled ashore and threw himself full length slope along a “I don’t like this” said the Flying Padre after he and his leather-cladaughter had dropped down on Iviuk Inlet to learn that Umanak had not returned from his overland trip to Echo Harbor “Umanak knows his way about” said Lynn “What worries me is that we’ve had no word from Alan” should that worry you?” “Why asked the Padre “Because he should have been back before this” protested the girl in dungarees “I hate to think of him in country where he’s so out of reach of help ” “Isn’t he that way most of the time?” “But this is different ” maintained Lynn “And we can’t even get through to him by radio” “So you've been worrying about Slade7” “I’m afraid I have Dad” Some unexpected note of humility in that response prompted the Padre to glance over his shoulder and meet her gaze “When did you find that out?” he asked “Find what out?” parried Lynn “That your bush hawk’s worth worrying over Or to put it more plainly that he’s beginning to loom a little bigger in your mind than Barrett Walden ” “I didn’t say that ” She was able to laugh a little at the solemnity in But you must remember his eyes that I’ve still got you on my mind ” Lynn’s father turning to her

wolf Then grunting with satisfaction he reached into the pouch of his worn and patched kooletah and produced a fragment of velvet black mineral with a luster “That urn” he announced The Flying Padre took the fragment and tuined it over in his hands He noted its heaviness and compactness its suggestion of octahedron cleavage with faint tinges of brown and green he this is pitchblende" “Why said "It’s what we’re getting our radium from these days" “But why should pitchblende be flown to Echo Harbor?” asked Lynn as she studied the lustrous mineral “Who’d want it for radium there?” “That’s what I don’t understand” said the man of medicine He turned to question Umanak “Just where and how did you find this7” “Me find um in cave” Umanak “In cave where water repeated make deep harbor behind island Heap big black stones piled there Black stones like that” he insisted pointing to the pitchblende “How big heap?” questioned the “He’s ISSF’ profession DON’T Let Our Fighting Boys Down

black stones away” “But why?” demanded the puzzled Padre Umanak had no answer for that He was more interested at the moment in reaching for another handful of Lynn’s dried beef The Flying Padre suddenly turned to him “Did you see your ghost plane when you were out there7” “No see” answered Umanak Lynn took her turn at once more inspecting the lustrous fragment of mineral “Is there any other use for pitchblende?” she inquired “Yes” was the meditative answer “It’s our best source of helium gas now But what good would lder helium be to anyone in this wilder“You’re mighty loyal to me aren t

The Flying Padre considered that simply “What we’re going to do now is question And as soon as “The American Navy uses it in pick up Umanak that’s done we’re going to see their dirigibles And the Germans when they could get it used it in what's keeping Alan in the Anatheir Zepps But the States refused wotto country” But that declaration failed to re- to release a stock to Hitler’s airmove the line of worry from Lynn s men when we couldn’t get a guaranbrow as she stood staring across the tee it wasn’t gong to be used for So our German horizon to the south war purposes friends fell bu k on hydrogen you “He’s so careless and reckless” Helium you see “He seems to love may remembd she complained ” lie won't even car- isn’t inflammable taking chances ” “But they’re so far away from our ry a radio The Flying Padre smiled pitchblende” Lynn objected “They “When did women begin losing would have no way now of getting their liking for courage?” he de it to their chemical plants ” the “Chemical plants" echoed manded as his brow “They always like courage” an man of medicine swered Lynn “but when you like the creased with thought has who it you rather want to man “Wait a minute” was the cry that what’s happening to him ” know came from the Padre’s lips “We’re “All right” said the Padre “let s overlooking something ” He took the “You get start And while the sun’s still high black stone from Lvnn more than helium from this stuff we'll see what we can do about pick” You You get more than radium ing up old Umanak however get uranium uranium that has a Pickirg up Umanak How of atomic energy five million proved less simple than it promised r A combing of the coast- times greater than what you'd get And supposing line showed no sign of him by burning coal Then Aian's right in his claim that this is Lynn acting as observer caught sight of what looked like smoke sig going to be harnessed andto controlled be a new and his is going nals from an empty fishing village power a power a billion times The Flying Padre informed of this promptly circled back and swung stronger than anything known?
