UP THE CANYON
BY ISABEL FROST.

Meg leaned over the counter, taking
n mental inventory of the strangers in
her leisurely, exasperating way. There
were four of them, all men from the
East, all preparing to outfit for ten
days trip up through the canyon. Yet
they were not prospectors. She could
tell that. Neither were they tourists.
There was an air of businessllke d.
rection and understanding among
them which plqued her curiosity.
Three of them went out to look at
some new pack saddles her father had
Just got from Denver. The fourth lit
cigarette and read some of the no.
tices posted on the side wall. Meg
knew those notices by heart. Some
were months old. The most recent
was the description of Tad Logan and
the reward offered by the state for the
taking of Tad, dead or alive.
"GoIng after it?" she asked lacon-
ically.
He did not appear startled, but
sauntered over toward her with
CLEAN of humor in his hazel eyes.
"How long has that been up there"
u
about IL from where you came fromT
"Just an item in the Denver papers
he replied. "Just a kid. wasn't hef
Did you know him?"
Meg eyed him warily, but her smile
was bland and pleasant.
"Well. not very we'll" She replaced
the cover on the box of dried apricots.
"Of course. he used to come in here
for supplies. Everyone does who trav-
els north of Pixies Peak. We don't
think he's round here now, though.
He'd make for the Park and get over
the line into Wyoming. There amt no
one around here but believes he hand
ed the Stolz boys all they were asking
for"
Ten minutes later the four strangers
rode away without a guide. Meg
watched them from the doorway OF
Dawleys General Emporium for Out
filters Supplies. And suddenly she felt
two arms reach from behind her about
her waist and she leaned her head
back on Tad's shoulder with sigh Of
relief.
"What do you suppose those fellows
wanted, Tad7" she asked anxiously.
II bet they were looking for you"
Tad grinned. He was n medium!
sized youngster with curly, sandy hair.
blue eyes and a face that any motion
picture hero might have envled. He
had not hidden from local scrutiny
since the little trouble with the Stolz
boys. Public opinion was entirely with
him, and Tad offered no explanations
one way or the other. He was the last
person seen with the Stolz boys. They
had both disappeared, absolutely, from
mortal ken.
It was six days later that one OF the
strangers came back to Dawley's on a
horse with sprung knees. As he
swung out of the saddle, Meg saw that
he walked with limp and one arm
hung loosely.
| She listened while he told her fa-
I ther how he and the fellow with the
cigarette had separated from their two
companions, each taking a different
trail. They had prowled around

HIGH SCHOOL NOTES
BY FRANCES M'MATH.

ID. c. medal was held last week. The
subject was Abraham Lincoln and
Jefferson Davis. The contest was
open to the entire school and many OF
the students tried.
Our cadet corps has become famous
nearly all over the United States. Mr..
II. r. Potter, of Baltimore, who was
second lieutenant at the Plattsburg
Summer Camps last summer, came
to our school Tuesday for the purpose
of investigating various rumOrs which
he had heard from distinguished peo-
pie concerning the splendid work that
has been done here in military train
ing.
Lieutenat Potter is personal friend
of Lieutenant Stever, the originator #
the Wyoming system of military train
ing in all of the high schools through
out the state. After the review Of
the corps, Mr.. Potter, we can most
surely say was not disappointed in
his investigation
Indeed, are our cadets Disappointing
anyone? Insnt every body in Ameri-
Gus proud of them?
They took part in the W. 0. W. par
ade Tuesday and everyone was proud
OF the grand sight they made marching
up Lee street. We we're also very
proud of the holiday that was given
us Immediately after the parade
When Vice-President Marshall ar
rived in Americas Wednesday the en-
tire school battalion was waiting to
accompany him to the hotel where
he afterwards spoke. He very highly
praised the cadets for their organixa-
ton and training.
While passing through the city Sup
orintendent ]. |. Altman of the ToccOa,
Ca, public schools, stopped as a Wis
itor to the high school last week. II
is interesting to note that Mr.. Allman's
son. Moss, though only thirteen years
old is a freshman at Wabash College,
Crawfordville, Ind, (the college OF
which President Marshall is a
graduate.) Moss Altman led his class
in three studies out of four in a recent
examination and is also athletic read
er of his class
The deep hollow in Reese Park that
has long been an impeachment to the
very important and much needed atA-

ers and pupils thank the city for this
al it gives up the necessary room for
having any kind of an athletics field
that we desire.
