CAMP, _ Sandy rant was a name to be fear-l ed; For ifty miles `along the. Rffierel des Erables Sandy and his gang. of .Highland lumberjaqksand river driv- ers had put terror into the hearts of peaceful inhabitants, and their fame `for lawless deeds had. spread to other regions and other streams.` and ha.d even been told around the mills and hotels of Ottawa. Every spring theyl made a foray down the river with the annual drive of logs, and fought and beat every other gang they chanced to meet, until the French-Canadian river- men refused to work on any.sec_tion of the stream where Sandy might be. At intervals -during the winter he and his ,men would come out of the woods in sleighloads and invade the little vil- lage of Notre,Dame de Bon Espoir. Then all peaceful people kept within doors,` and those who had to go out sneaked around back ways. and even the tavern-keepers who supplied them with liquor heaved sighs of relief when they were gone, and set to work to re- place the bars they had overturned a d repair the furniture and windows th had broken. Christmas was the great jamboree. Then they came out for '1! nihnlz nr fan Have nnnnf flnnrn all in 5l.I':'cLL ,|'cl.lHUUl.'CU.

Qnnv flrsanf was an fvninnl T-Tia-hInn.. va-v... I Then the miracle happened.-. O.ne lsummer the church sent a young uni- versity student into the rough farm settlement where Sandy's people lived, 1. and where `Sandy spent the short spell I between the close of. the drivein June and the going up of the advance gangs in the early `fall. He startedlpreach- ing with enthusiasm and` passion, and soon tackled the curse of drink which was demoralizing the community. Then Sandy came home,\ drinking and fight- ing as usual. But-he went to the little 1-og church and heard the student. who was hitting out as usual. .The- people `of the settlement foresaw disast- er and warned the student. He.was not the kind to be silent for fear of any- lbody. He was as big a man as Sandy |Grant_, though not -so experienced in `battle. Instead of waiting for Grant [to seek him, he sought Grant, and found him alone where there was `no one to interfere.` uvuuu-:u uu |.IlI'.'y I'8I.UX'I1B(l I0 [I18 WUUGS.

Perhaps it Wasa new experience for the-man whom everybody feared! to meet a man who was not afraidvof him. and not afraid to tell him to his [face what a fool he was `making of 3 himself. But he also told him where he icould get deliverance from the bond4 -age of evil habits. However it happened, {before the week ended Sandy Grant. `the terror of Riviere des Bon Erables. . stood up before his friends and neigh-I bors and announced his conversion! and his resolve never to walk in the old evil ways again. He was true to his vow.
