started his adventure equipped with nothing but a tent sleeping bag and a change of underwear he was determined to live off the fat of the land selecting a suitable tent site was the most important duty on his agenda being in the wilds of northern ontario jungle lou found a spot some twenty feet i from a main highway this is seclusion his selection was fair the a little hilly perhaps but about the best one could do for that part of the forest there was the odd boulder however with the proper amount of fidgeting lou would be fairly comfortable using his hare iiands lou cleared away a few shrubs that grew on his tent site and spread out the 9 x 12 canvas his first call on mother nature was for a rock big enough to hammer in j the tent pegs naturally lou smashed a thumb in the process

burk holder st was the male student representative from grade 11 stouffville dist high school who spent several weeks at white horse in the yukon he is the son of mr and mrs don ald middleton put up singlehandedly especially when the centre pole doesnt work it required brain work something lou was short of because he was on holiday and so was his common sense however lou finally strung a number of ropes to a number of rocks replaced pegs shifted uprights and finally had the tent erected although he was only able to use 73 square feet of it the next major step to make the campers life ideal was a suitable fireplace ever aware of the forest fire hazard lou turned up a number of rocks and placed them in a circle to provide an area for a safe fire one of the rocks was a little too heavy and keeping par with the course fell to the ground put ting one of lous toes out of commission deadwood was in abundance and the womens section of the globe and mail provided excellent material for starting th blaze of course rubbing two sticks together is a little primitive sn lou was well equipped with matches crumpling the paper in th bottom of the fireplace the expert camper set the deadwood over it in the form of a teepee and struck the match then he struck another match and another and and theyre worrying about me starting a forest fire lott thought i cant even light a cigarette later after he had reinforced the blaze with evergreen boughs lou dug out his first meal hot dogs cooking a wiener over an open fire requires much more intelligence than dropping it into a pot of boiling water first lou had to find a green sap ling branch that wouldnt burn sharpen the end and inject it into lite wiener then without the use of asbestos gloves he had to hold it over the roaring fire until it sizzled with his free hand and a second stick lou had to balance the bun over the fire to bring it to a nice crisp black er brown marshmallows capped the repast with beverage being a bold of warm ginger ale following the meal a siesta was in order and lou spreading out his sleeping bag arranged himself com fortably on good old terra firma on the verge of slumberland lou was startled to hear a heavy rustling in the leaves outsid his tent listening intently he noted the steps getting closer and louder he sat upright barely breathing with ears cocked as th twigs broke and the earth rumbled daring to move lou slowly inched his way up to the screened window in an effort to observ the unknown beast his heart all but stopped when he saw cam ouflaged in the foliage a ferocious chipmunk nibbling on the re- mains of his charred hot dog as night fell over the peaceful countryside our hero lou began preparations for bedding down the remaining embers in the fireplace died out with a final snap and a crackle casting ebony darkness on the entire area from the outer walls of lous safe enclosure came the fami liar sounds of the nocturnal wildlife frogs croaking from the nearby lake an occasional hoot from the owl in a tree crickets snapping in the distance a garter snake skimming its way across the ground as natures night time took over lou slid deeper into his sleeping bag and arranged himself between two rocks which felt more like stalagmites piercing their way into the bag completely at ease in the quiet surroundings with all his problems and worries forgotten lou drifted off to sleep holy heavens lou sat up with a start im freezing in the ninety minutes that had elapsed while lou slept the temperature must have dropped thirty degrees and it was only at 60 to begin with groping through the darkness lou located a candle but couldnt find a match when he found the match he had lost the candle his fingers were raw red as he searched through his suit case for a jacket and a heavier pair of socks for the remainder of the night lou shivered slept shivered and slept the old saying that its darkest just before dawn is true because when lou awoke he couldnt find the door to the tent half expecting to find an inch of snow on the ground lou blearyeyed tumbled through the entrance it was the same experience all over again with the fire thp food and the weather fog had risen from the lake and had covered the area like a shroud lou had the rpst of the day to figure nut a way to overcome the inevitable freezing weather of the coming night like all experienced campers he realized that the best thing to do was to keep calm and not panic he carefully planned and plotted his moves weighing each idea with pros and cons and finally came up with the only answer hauling the sleeping bag out of the lent he sperad it out in the back of his station wagon and that in a nutshell is how he got through the second night during the warm days lou found the swimming was good and he found that a nearby girls camp was closer than he had realized he didnt care to elaborate on his new found discovery and we didnt press the issue the third night lous brain was functioning at its peak and he ended up in a motel the soft bed the warm room a shower running water indoor plumbing the whole works and it finally dawned on our hero that mans conquest to make himself more comfortable was not a waste of time rather a necessary step in the progress of the world lou returned to civilization on the fourth day satisfied that man cannot live without the accessories and sold too on the fact that the bush is for the birds when vacation time rolls around next year lou has made a solemn promise to stay in the office where its airconditioned and find something a little more interesting to put in this corner
