How--how we going to get her out?
gpt
Run right up to her and pull her out! cried Chot.

She's holding to the edge of the ice. I can see her. Her head isn't under water! We got to pull her out!
gpt
But we mustn't run up to her! exclaimed Rick.

If we do--we'll--go in the water, too! The ice will break with us--same as--it did with--Mazie!

How we going to get your sister to shore if we don't pull her up out of the hole?
human
We got to get a board--or something--put it on the ice and walk out on it!
gpt
That's right! cried Chot.

I remember now! It's in our Boy Scout book. You got to use fence rails, or something to put down on the ice when it's cracking, to hold your weight. There's a fence! We can pull off some boards.
