Sept. 24, 1924, _(Continued from Yesterday's Star.) The last dog had been driven back. The hubbub dicd down, And White Fang licked hls hurts and meditated upon this, his first taste of pack- cruelty and his introduction to the pack. He had niver dreamed that bis own kind consisted of more than One Eye, his mothot, and himself. They had constituted” & kind apart. and here, abruptly, he had discovered many niore creatufes apparently ot als own kind. And there was a sub- conscious resentment -that these, his kind, at first sight had pitched upon him and tried to destroy him. In the same way he resented his mother be- ing tled with & stick, even though it was done by the superior man- animals. It &avored of the trap, of bondage. Yet of the trap and of bondage he knew nothing. Freedom to roam and run and lie down at will had been his heritage, and here it was being infringed upon. His mother's movements were restricted to the length of a stick, and by the length of that same stick was he re- stricted, for he had not yet got be- yond the need of his mother's side. He did not like it. Nor did he like it when the man-animals arose and went on with their march; for a tiny man-animal took the other end of the stick and led Kiche captive behind him. and behind Kiche followed White Fang. greatly perturbed and worried by this new adventure he had entered upon. They went down the valley of the stream, far beyond White Fang's widest ranging, until they came to the end of the valley, where the stream ran into the Mackenzie River. Here, whete canoes were cached on poles high in the air and where stood fish racks for the drying of fish, camp. was made, and White Fang looked on with wondering eyes. The superiority of these man-animals in- creased with every moment. There was their mastery over all these sharp-fanged dogs. It breathed of power. But greater than that, to the Wolf cub, was their mastery over things not alive: their capacity to communicate motion to unmoving things: their capacity to change the very face of the world. It was this last that especially =#octed him. The elevation of frames of poles cmisht his eye; yet this in itself was not so remarkable, beirg done by the same creatures that flung sticks and stones to great distances. But when the frames of poles were made into tepees by being covered with cloth and skins White Fang was astounded. It was the colossal bulk of them that impressed him. They arose around him, on every side, like some monstrous quick-growing form of life. They occupigd nearly the whole circumference of his field of vision. He was afraid of them. They jJoomed ominously above him, and when the breeze stirred them into huge movements he cowered down in fear, keeping his eyes warily upon them, and prepared to spring away if they attempted to precipitate them- selves upon him. = But in a short while his fear of the tepees pasrsed away. He saw the women and children passing in and out of them without harm, and he saw the dogs trying often fo get into them and being driven away with sharp words and flying stones. After a time he left Kiche's side and crawl- ed cautiously toward the wall of the nearest tepee. It was the curiosity of the growth that urged him on— the necessity of learning and living and doing that brings experience. The last few inches to the wall of the tepee were crawled with painful slowness and precaution. The day's events had prepared him for the unknown to manifest itself in most stupendous and unthinkable ways. At last his nose touched the canvas. He waited. Nothing happened. Then he smelled the strange fabric, saturated with the man smell. He closed on the canvas with his teeth and gave a gentle tug. Nothing happened, though the adjacent portions of the tepee moved. He tugged harder. ‘There was a greater movement. It was delightful. He tugged still harder, and repeatedly, until the whole 'tepee was in motion. Then the sharp cry of & squaw inside sent him scampering back to Kiche. But after that he was afraid no more of the looming bulks of the tepees. A moment later he was straying away again from his mother. Her stick was tied to a peg in the ground and she cguld not follow him. A part-grown puppy, somewhat larger and older than he, came toward him slowly with ostentatious and bellig- erent importance. The puppy’s name, as White Fang was afterward to hear him called, was Lip-lip. He had had experlence’ in puppy fights and was already something of a bully. Lip-lip was White Fang's own kind, and, being only a pupny. did not seem dangerous: so White Fang pre- pared to meet him in friendly spirit. But when the stranger's walk became stiff-legged and_his lips lifted clear of his teeth White Fang stiffened, oo, and answered with lifted lips. They half circled about each other tentatively, snarling and bristling. fhis lasted several minutes, and ‘White Fang was beginning to_enjoy it as a sort of game. But suddenly, with remarkable swiftness, Lip-lip leaped in, delivered a slashing snap and leaped away again. The snap had taken effect on the shoulder that had been hurt by the lynx and that was still sore deep down near the bone. The surprise and hurt of it brought a yelp out of White Fang, but the next moment. in a rush of anger, he was upon Lip-lip and snap- ing_viciously. ; i B‘ul Lip-lip_had lived his life in camp and had fought many puppy fights. Three times, four times and half a dozen times his sharp little teeth scored on the newcomer, until White Fang, yelping shamelessly, fled to the protection of his mother. It was the first of the many fights he was to have with Lip-lip, for they were enemies from the start, born so, with natures destined perpetually to clash. 3 iche licked White Fang sooth- ingly with her tongue and tried to prevail upon him t oremain with her. But mis curiosity was rampant ana several minutes later he was ventur- ing forth on a new quest. He came upon one of the man-animals, Gray Beaver, who was squatting on_his hams and doing something with sticks and dry moss spread before him on the ground. White Fang came near to him and watched. Gray Beaver made mouth noises which White Fang interpreted as not hos- tile, so_he came still nearer. ‘Women and children were carrying more_sticks and branches to Gray MUSICAL INSTRUCTION.

It was evidently an affair of moment. White Fang came in until he touched Gray Beaver's knee, 80 curious was he, and already for- getful that this was a terrible man- animal. Suddenly he saw a'strangé thing like mist beginning to arise from the sticks and moss beneath Gray Beaver's hands. Then among the sticks themselves appeared a live thing, twisting and turning, of u colon like the color of the sun in the sky. White Fang knew nothing about fire; It drew” him as the light in the mouth of a cave had drawn him in his early puppyhood. He crawled the several steps toward the flame. He heard Gray Beaver chuckle above him and he knew the sound was not_hos- tile. Then his nose touched the flame: and at the same instant his little tongue went out to it. For a moment he was paralyzed. The unknown lurking in the midst of the sticks and moss was savagely clutching ~ him by the nose. He scrambled backward, bursting out im an astonished explosion of ki-yis. At the sound Kiche leaped snarling to the end of her stick, and there raged terribly because she could not come to his aid. But Gray Beaver laughed loudly. and slapped his thighs, and told the happening to all the rest of the camp, till everybody was laughing up- roariously. But White Fang sat on his haunches and ki-vi'd and ki-yi'd, a for-_ lorn and pitiable little figure in the midst of the man-animals. It was the worst hurt he had ever, known. Both nose and tongue had been scorched by the live thing, sun-colored, that had grown up under Gray Beaver's hands. He cried and cried interminably- and every fresh wail was greeted by" bursts of laughter on the part of the man.animals. He tried to soothe his nose with his tongue, but the tongue wi burnt, too, and the two hurts coming together produced greater hurt; where- upon he cried more hopelessly and heip- lessly than ever. And then thame came to him. He knew laughter and the meaning of it It is not given us to know how mome animals know laughter, and know when they are being laughed at, but it wae this same way the White Fang knew it.., And he felt shame that the man- animals should be laughing at him. He turned and fled away, not from the hurt of the fire, but from the laughter that sank even ‘deeper and hurt in the spirit of him. And he fled to Kiche, raging at the end of her stick likg an animal gone mad—to Kiche, the oné creature in the world who was not laughing at him. Twilight drew down and night came on, and White Fang Jay by his mother s side. His nose and tongue still hurt. but he was perplexed by a greater trou- ble. He was homesick. He felt a va-. cancy in him. a need or the hush and . quietude of the stream and the cave in the cliff. Life had become too populous. There were 5o many of the man-animals. men, women and children all making noises and irritations. And there we:¥ the dogs, ever squabbling and bickering. s bursting into uproars and creating con-. fusions. The restful loneliness of the only life he had known was gone. Here the very air was palpitant with life. It hummed and buzzed unceasingly. Con- tinually changing its intensity and’, abruptly variant in pitch, it impinged on his nerves and senses, made him nervous and restlees and worried him lwxm & perpetual imminence of happen- ng. He watched the man-anima's coming and going and moving about the camp In tashion distantly resembling the was men look upon the gods they create, <o looked White Fang upon the man- animals before him. They were superio creatures, of a verity, gods. To his dim comprehension they Were as much won-. der wonders as gods are to men. They were creatures of mastery, possessing’ all manner of unknown and impossib'e potencies, overlords of the alive and the not_ alive—making - obey that _which moved, imparting movement to that which 'did not move and making life. sun-colored and biting life. to grow ouf . of dead moss and wood. They were fire- = makers! They were gods! ' CHAPTER II. The Bondage. The days were thronged with experi- ence for White Fanz. During the time that Kiche was tied by the stick he ran about all over the camp, inquiring, in- vestigating, learning. He quickly came to know much of the ways of the man-:- animals, but familiarity did not breed contempt. The more he came to know them the more they vindicated their eu- periority, the more they displayed their mysterious powers, the greater loomed their god-likeness. : To man has been given the grief: often. of seeing his gods overthrown' and his altars crumbling. but to thé wolf and the wild dog that have coma in to crouch at man's feet, this grief has never come. Unlike man, whose gods. are of the unseen and the overguessed, vapors and mists of fancy eluding the, garmenture of reality, wandering wraith of desired goodness and power, intangi- ble outcroppings of self into the realm of spirit—unlike man, the wolf and the wild dog that have come in to the fire. find their gods in the living flesh. eolid to the touch, occupying earth space and. requiring time for the accomplishment: of “their ‘ends and their existence. No effort of faith is necessary to believe in such a god; no effort of will can pos- sibly induce disbelief in such a_god. There is no getting away from it. There. it stands, on its two hind legs, club in’ hand, {mmensely potential, passionate and wrathful and loving, god and mys- tery and power all wrapped up and- around by flesh that bleeds when' it is'’ torn and. that s good to eat like any flesh. And so it was with White Fang. The | man-animals were gods unmistakable ' and unescapable. As &is mother, Kiche, had rendered her alleglance to them at the first cry of her name, so he was be- ginning to render his aliegiance. He gave them the trail as a privilege in- dubitably theirs. When they walked, he got out of their way. When they cailed, he came. When they threatened, he cowered down. When they commanded’, him to go, he went away hurriedly. For_ behind any wish of theirs was power to enforce. that wish, power that hurt, power that expressed itself in clouts and clubs, in fiying stoncs and stinging lashes of whips. He belonged to them ag all dogs be. $ longed to them. His action: were theirs to command. His body was theirs to maul, to stamp upon, to tulerats. Such was the lesson that was quickly borne in upon him. It came hard, going as it did, ‘counter to much that' was strong : and dominant in his own nature, and while he disliked it in the learning of it, unknown to himself he was learning to like it. It was a placing of his destiny in another's hands, a ehifting of the re- sponsibilities of existence. This in it- self was compensation, for it is always easier to lean upon another than to stand alone. & But it did not 'all happen in a das. this- giving over of himeelf, body and'’} soul, to the man-animals. He could nag ** immediately forego his wild heritage and his memoriés of the wild. There were days When he crept to the edge of the forest and stood and listened to something calling him far and a A {And. always he returned, restless and ; uncomfortable, to whimper softly and wistfully at Kiche's side and to lick her face with eager, questioning tongue. ‘White Fang learned rapidly the ways | of the eamp. He knew the injustice and | Breediness of the older dogs when meat or firh s thrown out to be eaten. He came to know that men were more just, i chi'‘dren more cruel and women - more kind'y and more like's to tows him a bit of meat or bone. And after two or three painful adventures with the mothers of rt-grown puppies he came into the nowledge that it was always good policy to let such mothers alone, to keep away from them as far as possible and to avold them when he saw them com- “fizmm.umlmmupu_
