One day after John had been thers five or six weeks, all the other boys went on a hike but John remained at the camp. About half an houf after they left John saw something on ‘the water about half way across the lake that he thought was a niece of wood, After watching it for some time he no- ticed it moving in a manner most une wusual to blocks of wood; so he ran into the temt an brought out his fleld wlasses.
