the title of the champion David
Harum at all weights.
Considering the policy of the
va lks, the deal does not mean
that the pam Colonies" were
asleep or drugged whe nthey sign
ed the papers. The Yanks have
to win the pennant next season to
keep up their standing with the
Giants. Miller Higgins figures
that Pennock will win fifteen
games for him and Young Muir
ray wouldn't get the chance to
win one game sitting on the bench
or singing in the bull pen.
Like McGraw, the Yanks are
becoming opportunists. They will
sacrifice any future prospects for
the needs of the moment figuring
that when the need arises in the
future the pen and the check
book will provide the necessary.
Miller Higgins always has had
a leaning toward veterans. The
club owners cannot help but be
aware of this and no doubt they
felt that Murray, Mcmillan and
Skinner weren't earning money
sittin gon the bench.

NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY

Yes That is the name. re member my uncle mentioning it yes terdav"
 Then you came down the main stream for certainty, for the old fort stands on d lake that finds an outlet into this river. though it is rather long way from here. We will keep straight on. No doubt we shall strike either your uncle's camp or some search party presently"
 AS it happened the conclusion he reached was based on q miscalcula- ton. The only waterway 10 old Fors WinaSog that he knew was from the main river and up tho stream that formed the outlet for the lake. But there was another that was reached by a short portage through the woods from the subsidiary stream from which he turned asidc, a waterway which fed the lake. and which cut of at least a hundred and twenty mites. Knowing nothing of this shorter route he naturally concluded that Helen Yardely's canoe had come down the main stream, and took the wrong course in the perfect assurance that 1t was the right one.
 So, hugging the left bank. they passed the junction of the rivers, and a little further on crossed to the other side to seek shelter from rising wind, under the high bank. And less than an hour later the canoe, carrying Gerald Ainley and his Indian, swept out Of the tributary stream into the broader current, and they droyr downstream, unconscious that every stroke Of the paddle was taking them further from the girl whom they sought.
