forces were gathered, to learn the re-
suits. of his first appearance in Bens
costume and to consider plans for
foilng the plot of Ben's crowd.
Finally the details were all arranged.
Leaving Ben under strong guard, the
leaders went back to the rink and pro-
ceeded to round up the rest of Joe's
crowd. These boys were warned of the
coming danger and instructed in the
part they were to play at 10 p. m.
The intervening time passed happily
for the gay masked skaters, but it
seemed twice as long to Frank and his
friends. Frank had to play the part
of Ben as Captain Kidd, and he came
near being found out more than once.
But the hour passed without discovery
and Frank now prepared to give the
signal for the grand climax and, he
fervently hoped, the grand finale" of
Ben's crowd.
AS the hands pointed to 10 Frank ad-
vanced to one end of the main hall,
where he found himself in front of
quickly formed long masked line Of
Bens followers strung entirely across
from wall to wall.
Frank ran his eye down the irregular
line, then glanced behind it. What he
saw evidently satisfied him. He drew
Captain. Kidd's sword from it's scabbard
and waved it twice in the air.
Evidently this was the signal Ben's
lined up adherents awaited, for then
most curious thing happened. A long,
stout rope appeared in twinkling and
was passed like lightning along the
line until each of Ben's friends had
grasped ii. What could have been
palmer than Ben's intentions now? The
boys with i'll concealed impatience only
awaited their supposed leaders, next
signal to rush down the hall. They

us that the picture was taken. Then
we breathed once more.
AS If it had been waiting for just
that signal, the big moose turned
around and, with farewell shake OF
its head, stalked into the forest. The
suspense was ended. We gleefully dis
cussed our success. wondering If the
pictures would be good and thanking
the absent moose for its thoughtful
ness.
We turned the canoe around and
started for home, chattering eagerly the
while. We were we'll on our way when

it lovingly, thinking no doubt OF the
treasure within. Then suddenly her
expression changed and dsmay over
spread her features

protection. 1t had surely proved a
protection. For a while there was a
profound silence. Our hopes had been
rudely shattered. Then the funny side
OF the affair struck us and we laughed
until the woods around echoed with
the noise. And that is how we took a
picture of a moose.

gagged and hauled into closet. Then
the grand marshal was instructed to
start the parade again and Ben's
gang passed unsuspectingly right by
the closet door.
After the parade returned to the
main hall Ben was spirited away by
the back stairs to an empty room on
the floor above, where Frank went i'm
mediately, the parade disbanded and
skating began. Frank didn't wish to
lose any time in making the next
move, for every minute that passed in
creased the chance of Ben's prolonged
absence alarming his faithful fol-
lowers.
You may imagine poor Ben's disgust
when Frank coolly forced him to
change costumes And when Frank
boldly walked out masked and dressed
as Captain Kidd no one not in the
secret would have guessed it wasn't
Ben, as the two boys were about the
same height and build.
He had hardly entered the skating
hall when several of Bens followers
surrounded Frank, asking him where
he had been so long. Frank answered
in a disguised voice. which Ben's ad-
herents naturally thought was put on
for the enemys benefit. A lot Of
whispering now took place. and Franks
adroit questions soon gave him COM
plete information of Ben's plans. He
also found, much to his relief, that the
time for Ben's attack on the skaters
was set for 10 p. m. which gave Frank
more than an hour to make his prep
arations.
Frank soon found pretext to sepa-
rate from Ben's crowd. and, after as
suring himself that he was not fol-
lowed made a dash for Ben's prison,
where the other leaders of the rink

we took long trips on the lake we
never seemed able to have any luck in
the photographing of moose.
But one day we were out canoeing,
keeping well in toward the shore. We
had seen neither moose nor deer so
far. and had about given up hope of
sgetting a glimpse of one, much less
picture. Then as we were gliding
smoothly along a large, dark object
appeared ahead of US.
AS we got nearer we saw what We
had long been looking for. Yes, IL was
a moose! Oh. IL we could only get up
close enough! Quietly and quickly the
canoe sped along, leaving little ripples

would sweep the unprepared skaters
before them with the rope into fren-
zied, panic stricken herd until the other
end of the hall was reached, and the
rush would culminate in a mixed up
tangfe of fallen and Shriel5ing victims
Then they would complete their work
by wrecking the hall and escape before
Joe's crowd could recover its wits.
That was the plan. Would Frank
dare to give the next signal? He hesi-
tated, and then, even as he drew his
sword again to give it, his followers
anticipating, started their forward
movement with yell. But what was
that? Intent on trapping the crowd in
front they didn't see more than a score
Of figures suddenly swoop in from the
main entrance behind them and spread
out fan shaped as they noiselessly ran
forward to overtake Ben's line in the
rear.
The yell wasn't out of the enemys
mouth before Ben's line went down
each with a man on his back, and then
one of the most exciting conflicts you
ever saw took place. 1t was Just like
bunch of fighting cats all tangled up
in a rope" as Frank afterward de-
scribed the battle. But the Jordan
crowd, taken completely by surprise
didn't have a chance to win. Almost
before the startled onlookers knew
what had happened every man in Bens
crowd was overpowered and a pris-
oner, and thus ended Ben Jordan's
crafty plan Of revenge.
1t took some time to restore order, so
great was the excitement over the af-
fair. Finally Frank was able to make
a speech in which he explained ALL

As a fitting punishment they were
propped against the wall and compelled
to remain until the evening was over
when they were treated to a most hu-
initiating tableau. Just before the time
arrived to judge the costumes Frank
who was one OF the judges, paid Ben a
visit and compelled Ben to don his Cap
tain Kidd costume again. Then Ben
was forcibly escorted into the hall and
confronted with the rest OF his band

the cardboard medal around until the
crowd could see what was on the other
side. How all roared with laughter as
they read just two words painted in
large, black letters The words We're:
