Reddy Fox had discovered htin there and had tried to tempt him to come out. Sammy Jay had warned the squirrel not to listen to Reddy, so Chatterer had stayed right where he knew he was safe.

Red- dy Fox and Stubwing the Hawk ctultln't get him in that old log. but he knew that Bustcr gllear could.

Reddy Fox knows when he is beaten. He knew now that he had- not a chance to catch Chattcrer. "He hoped that Buster Bear would- not find him. htit anyway it was of no use to hang around. So he snarled at Buster Bear and then trotted off.

He darted right under one of Bus- ter Bear's big paws.

Buster didn't mind being snarl- ed at. He was r d to it. He was so big and so strong that he could do just as he pleased, and he didn't mind at all what others might think of him. Now he be- gan to sniff here and sniff there. Presently he came over to the old log in which Chatterer was hiding.

Now Buster Bear knows that very often there are grubs and beetles and other small persons under old logs. so often he hooks his big claws into an old log and pulls it over to see who or what may be underneath. He did that this time. He hooked his claws into that old log and began to pull. It was Chatterer's last chance and he knew it. If he re- mained in that old log even when it was rolled over.

Captain Chemitz. who does not speak French. rent a sailor to fetch his beret.

"I put on the beret." the cap- tain said. "and that broke the ice. I guess he figured I was one of them. Front then on we under- stood one another perfectly."

It turned out that the raft skip-

Beaudout said he and his com- panions, Gaston Vanackere. a cameraman. and Marc Modena. a radioman. needed food because they had had no luck at fishing.

Chemitz said he gave them fresh fruit, food staples and six roast ducks. They gave him seven pieces of mail, including letters to Mme. Beaudout in Montreal and Mme. Vanackere in France.
