the figures with wonderful grace and skill, and Gladys's conduct
on this occasion filled her with unutterable mortification.

Sahwah rushed away to her tent and got into her bathing suit and
sat down on the dock, impatiently waiting for Nyoda's "All in!"
In swimming hour she managed to get herself into disfavor again.
Hinpoha was taking her test for towing a person to shore and was
swimming with Nakwisi in tow. She was just nearing the dock
where Nyoda stood watching to see if she could land her burden
when Sahwah dove off the high tower, right on top of her and
Nakwisi, carrying them both under the surface and breaking up the
test. Nyoda uttered an impatient exclamation and sent Sahwah out
of the water as a reminder to look before she dove the next time.
Sahwah's heart was nearly broken and she could hardly eat her
dinner. She and Gladys were washing dishes that day, but when
the time came Gladys pleaded a headache and went to the tent to
lie down, leaving Sahwah to do them alone. It seemed that every
dish in camp had been used that day. She finished at last, all
tired out, and flung herself on her bed, resolved not to move
until rest hour was over, and not then if she didn't feel like
it. She was just sinking off into a delicious doze when Gladys
reached over and pulled her by the foot.

"What do you want?" said Sahwah drowsily.

"Come on, take me for a ride in the sponson," said Gladys.

"Can't, it's rest hour," answered Sahwah.

"What of it?" said Gladys, "Let's go anyway. Everybody's asleep.
