Fate Gives Carlyle Chance
He Has Been Seeking.

Synopsis - Geoffry Carlyle,
master of sailing ships at twen-
ty-six, is sentenced to 20 years
servitude in the American col
onies for participation in the
Monmouth rebellion in England.
Among the passengers on board
the ship on which he is sent
across are Roger Fairfax,
wealthy Maryland planter; his
niece, Dorothy Fairfax, and Lieu
tenant Sanchez, a Spaniard, who
became acquainted with the Fair
faxes in London. Carlyle meets
Dorothy, who informs him her
uncle has bought his services.
Sanchez shows himself an enemy
of Carlyle. The Fairfax party,
now on it's own sloop in the
Chesapeake bay, encounters
mysterious bark, the Namur of
Rotterdam. Carlyle discovers
that Sanchez is "Black Sanchez"
planning to steal the Fairfax
gold and abduct Dorothy. He
fights Sanchez and leaves him
for dead. In a battle with
Sanchez followers, however, he
is overpowered and thrown into
the bay. In a desperate effort
to save Dorothy, Carlyle decides
to swim to the Namur. By a
ruse he gets aboard and min
giles with the crew. The pirates
return to the Namur with Dor
othy, the captured gold and
Sanchez, badly wounded but still
alive. Carlyle finds a friend in
Watkins, an English sailor.

SCOUT CAUSE

National Organization
Building Citizens
For 7 Tomorrow
HEALTHIER BOYS

1t is confidentially believed by
those great in their experience with
boys that the Boy Scout organization
will supercede all organized boys
work within the next five years.
Conservation of our national re-
sources is universally approved but OF
what value would material resources
be unless we conserve the moral, in
tellectual and physical future Of the
coming generation?
Scouting is process of making real
men out of real boys by real pro-
gram which works. Scouting is out
door life and so health, strength,
happiness and a practical education.
BY combining wholesome, attrac-
tive outdoor activities with the in
iuence of the scout oath and law,
the movement develops character. 1t
develops the power. of initiative and
resourcefulness.
The boy scout movement health
fully and sanely Offsets the disad-
vantages !. which civilization has
caused. Steps are being taken to
place this movement permanently
and actively in the Blackfoot district.
Inspiration and moral backing must
come from all citizens to put this
great movement for the boys over the
top.

Stone and his cousin Mrs. ]. r.
Jones. He has been assigned to
duty on the Mexican border with the

France. AS a staff liaison officer
with the sixth division he saw much

got as far up as Bonanza but were
not permitted to go further on ac-
count of the forest fires, which are

Lawrence Cowen
Home From Sea

Lawrence Cowen, son of Judge f.
]. Cowen, and who was seaman on
the U. S. destroyer Rowan up until
July 3, 1919, returned to his home
in Blackfoot last week. He enlisted
in April, 1917 and was discharged in
August, 1919 at St. Louis.
Lawrence was at first, after the
preliminary training, assigned to the
u. S S. Vermont, stationed at New
York and patrolling the east coast
as far as Cuba. In November, at
Hampton Roads, just after a target
practice he met with an accident and
anne off with crushed foot which
laid him up in the hospital part of
November and December, Then he
went across to be assigned to the
destroyer fleet operating from
Queenstown, Ireland.
The most moving part of his ex-
perience bringing in conveys to
Liverpool, England, Lawrence says,
was the reception the troop trans
ports would give the destroyers when
they came within shouting distance.
Enough destroyers would 60 out
to surround the conveys, about 500
miles from shore, and as they be-
gan circling the big, heavily laden
boats from America, such a shout
would go up as might have been
heard in Germany on a quiet day.
The soldiers always had a warm
spot in their hearts for the plucky
little destroyers. They all knew that
nothing else so put the fear of the
devil into German submarine COM
manders, and also that the destroy
ers were better protection than heavy
warships, BECAUSE Of their speed.
At Liverpool, after tying in on the
wharves Of the Mercy river, the SOL
diers would give the destroyer crews
another ovation as they slipped down
the river towards the sea on some
other errand of guardianship.
