THEY SHOULD HAVE CAR
RIED 1T ALL SEASON

The possible reason for thhree vic
tories in row for the high school
basket ball teams has finally leaked
out.
A couple of weeks ago Chester
Reust had a penny which he felt was
lucky, so he gave it, to the high school
boys just before the game with
Mea de. The boys won the game. The
next night the girls played Meade,
and since they carried this same pen
ny, they defeated the Meade girls,
And the high school boys carried the
penny when they defeated the Lee
gion team, so who is there to say
that this penny didn't have some luck
about it?
1t seems too bad that Chester did
not let this penny fall into the hands
of our teams at the beginning of the
season. Then there would possibly
be a different story to tell concern
ing the seasons average.

LIBERAL BOY SCOUT
MOVEMENT is GROWING

From what we learn of the big
western trip planned for the Liber-
al Boy Scouts to start on July 18th,
under the management and through
the generosity of Jno. w. Baughman,
it is going to be just little beyond
even the widest expectations of the
boys. 1t is to travel that part of
Colorado and Wyoming which con-
taips not only the most beautiful of
scenic tours, but will be highly edu
cetional and instructive to the young
Scouts.
From the impressions made by the
boys on their trip last year, men Of
prominence are taking personal in
terest in both states to make the
coming trip huge success. Mr.. Vol
ney T. Hoggatt, who is editor of the
Great Divide at Denver, and who was
responsible for the cake and pie din
ner at Sunshine, New Mexico, which
was so highly appreciated by all last
year, has consented to be guest of
the expedition for a few days while
they are viewing the interesting and
historic sights in the vicinity of the
City of Denver. He is also going to
see that the boys are provided with
the best to be had at the Frontier
Days Celebration at Cheyenne, Wy
Oming. In recent issue Of his paper
he printed a picture taken last year
of the boys at the top of the LaVeta
Pass.
Mr.. L. A. Miller, who is secretary
of the Frontier Days Celebration,
writes that Cheyenne is much inter-
ested in having the boys at their
celebration, and that he will do all in
his power to make every minute of
their stop in Cheyenne an enjoyable
one
Word has also been received from
Thos. j. lyman, warden of the State
Penintentiary at Canon City, Colo
RADIO, that he will dispense with the
usual visitors rules, and will be glad
to show the boys through his insti-
tuition any time they arrive there.
Many others who have heard of the
success of the Liberal Boy Scouts
have written invitations for the
troops to come through their towns
as their own boys are anxious to be-
come acquainted with the Liberal
Scouts, who are taking the lead in
this section of the country in Scout

they saw the sweetest sight that they
had ever seen. For far away was Clay

streets and bare, new houses, and the
gaunt station buildings. roundhouses
and locomotive shops.
They were white as shrouded bodies,
besmeared with CRIME. and Wilton was
caked with the blood that had oozed
from his wounds and frozen.

He tried to rise to his feet, but could
not. Wilton's mind was quite clear,
but his body. driven by his will, had
collapsed suddenly like a worn-out
horse.
Three horsemen were riding over
the plain toward them. They watched
them In a dull apathy. Even Molly
hardly cared any more. except for VII
