There our eats we stow,
Oh, what fun it is to hike
With the girls of Wohelo!

Wohelo, Wohelo,
Singing all the day,
O what fun it is to hike
Around the world away!"

The girls joined in the chorus, and then went back to the
beginning, and in a few minutes the song had been "adopted for
use." By this time the fire was burning low and Nyoda reminded
the girls that they had walked twelve miles that day and had a
still longer tramp ahead on the morrow. "It doesn't seem
possible that I've walked so far today," said Migwan, sitting up
and stretching. "I'm not nearly as tired as I have been some
days last winter after school."

The girls had all picked out their sleeping places before dark
and made up their beds on the ground. Before retiring they all
took a dip in the lake, splashing around in the darkness and
barking their shins on the rocks. Gladys and Chapa sought their
beds first. It was the first time that Gladys had ever slept on
the ground. "There's a rock in my back and my feet are higher
than my head," she wailed.

"Then let's move," said Chapa, and suiting the action to the
word, she picked up the bed and deposited it in another place.
This was fairly comfortable and they subsided.
