Which side of the island had a little bit of smoke in Lord of the Flies?

The only reference in Lord of the Flies that I can find which may be what you are refering to is, and I quote... The fire by the platform appeared to be out, or at least making no smoke. Further along the beach, beyond the little river and near a great slab of rock, a thin trickle of smoke was climbing into the sky. Simon forgetful of the flies, shaded his eyes with both hands and peered at the smoke..." This would indicate that the fire was on the same side of the island as the shelters and platform, which was the 'friendly' side of the island where the lagoon was enclosed by the coral reef.
