In addition to the band passing under the chin a small crown fits the head snugly, and helps to keep the huge thing in place. Primarily it is a head-covering, a protection against sun or rain, but incidentally it serves as a windbreak, a basket-cover, a tray, or a cradle.

For a long time she was silent, watching Lawler, a dread wonder filling her. And at last, when the continuing silence began to affect her with its horrible monotony, she said, quaveringly: "Did you Are they dead?" "Yes," said Lawler, gruffly; "I took them out back of the windbreak." He wheeled, to look straight at her, his gaze level and somber. "I had to do it there was no other way.

Next the apple trees run a grape trellis; and then in succession east and west, run a row of blackberries, raspberries, gooseberries, and currants. These rows, with the apple trees, form a windbreak, and besides adding to the income, protect the vegetables. Next to the bush fruits, between them and the ends of the vegetable rows, put rhubarb, asparagus, and strawberries."

And later that night, moving swiftly northward, under straggling clouds that obscured the moon, the two journeyed Della swathed in clothing that assured her of warmth, and still preserving a sullen silence; Lawler riding ahead, breaking trail. Dawn was just breaking when Lawler dropped from Red King at the windbreak near the line cabin.

A row of German Iris at the back of this bed will give solidity and the sturdy foliage make an excellent windbreak in the blooming season.

He came in about an hour to the dip which, as he had surmised, was the edge of a considerable valley. He ran down the slope, and looked all about for some place of shelter, a thick windbreak in the lee of a hill, or an outcropping of stone, but he saw neither, and, as he continued the search, he came to marshy ground.

They at once found the retreat a perfect windbreak, and became comfortable all hugging together "like a nestful of owlets," Helen said, and all declared themselves as "warm as toast." But the wind howled mournfully through the wood, and the snow sifted down with a strange, mysterious "hush hush hus-s-sh" that made them feel creepy.

Soon they came upon another dead caribou, and this time Pot-fighter's-father had skinned it, and had cut out its tongue; but again the wolf had refused to touch the deer. Continuing their pursuit, they discovered a brush windbreak where the hunter had evidently stopped to camp for the night. Now they noticed that the tracks of the wolf took to cover among the scrub.

These Larry filled with the soft, elastic moss that florists use, of which there is any quantity in the low backwater meadows of the river. Of the small hemlocks for the windbreak, and we are using none over two or three feet for this purpose, as we want to pinch them in and make them stocky, the roots of three or four will often go into a bag.

But next day there set in the pleasant tasks of unpacking, putting up tents and flies, cutting spruce for thick, soft beds, and a hundred odd jobs dear to every camper. Takahashi would not have any one help him. He dug a wide space for fires, erected a stone windbreak, and made two ovens out of baked mud, the like of which, and the cleverness of which I had never seen. He was a whirlwind for work.
