Hip, hurrah! Hip, hurrah! "Well, I declare; Mont Folsom, what is the matter with you?" "Matter? Nothing is the matter, Tom, only I'm going to a boarding school-just the best place on the face of the earth, too-Nautical Hall, on the seacoast." "Humph! I didn't know as how a boarding school was such a jolly place," grumbled old Tom Barnstable. "They'll cane ye well if ye git into mischief, lad." "Will they, Tom? What for? I never do any wrong," and Mont Folsom put on a very sober face. "Jest to hear the lad! Never do no mischief! Ha! ha! Why you're the wust boy in the town fer mischief, Mont-an' everybody knows it. A nautical school, did ye say. Maybe they'll take ye out in a ship some time in that case." "They do take the pupils out-every summer, so Carl Barnaby was telling me. He goes there, you know, and so does Link Harmer."

Excerpt from book: CHAPTER III THE FLIGHT OF THE SNOWBIRD Jack Darrow and Mark Sampson were glad enough to Be of the party aiming to reach northern Alaska and" the Endicott Range, if Professor Henderson really intended going to find the strange herb for which Dr. Todd was willing to pay so generously. Of discussion, pro and con, there was much. Indeed, they sat up until after midnight after the reading of Dr. Todd's letter, talking over the contemplated journey, and gradually the details of the trip, including all preparations for it, were worked out.

Washington White built a traveling coop of very light but strong material for his pet Shanghai, and thenannounced himself as ready to depart for the Arctic Circle. The instructions and map furnished by Dr. Todd, locating the very apot beyond the Endi- cott Range where the rare herb had been plucked by the miner, showed it to be in a very wild region indeed. There was a native settlement named Aleukan within a hundred miles of the valley where the herb was supposed to grow in abundance. Professor Hendersen determined to lay their course for this place. But the nearest white man's town was Cold- foot, on the other side of the mountains.
