A WILD-GOOSE CHASE
Geoff found them and said his hearty good-byes to Eric; and then he took his sister aside.
"Meg," he said, "what I want you to tell me is this: How did you know the difference between Price and Eric before we went into the Arctic?"
"You'll know," his sister said, "when the time comes for you to decide between girls."
He bent and kissed her. "Tell you one thing. If I'm doubtful, I don't marry till the girl goes with me into the Arctic. Good-bye, Meg! Good-bye, Eric, old fellow! Good-bye, both of you together!"
