shoulders before releasing her. The
young man who rode against her came
up and shook hands and said it was the
hardest ride he had ever run. The
dance that evening was lead by Spen-
GER and Winnie. Everyone enjoyed
themselves. Winnie divided her dances
with all. Spencer did the same with
the woman folks. The older folks
sat and talked Of the past, during the
forepart of the evening. Two men
who had spent the day in town went
up to Spencer and Winnie and said
eve came up from Paradise Valley to
this roundup Of yours and now that
you have roped your maverick, we
want to ask you to forgive those Of us
who remain. You remember several
years ago Mr.. Spencer that you was
treated to a ducking in the Yellow
stone River? Well, partner, me and
my pal here and two others played
that trick on you but we did not expect
it to turn out as it did regarding the
young lady. You was tenderfoot
then and we were young. We felt that
you pushed your claim too strong with
this young lady, so wanted to scare
you. One of us has passed beyond.
The other went out of the country. We
have roped our running mates and set
tied down."
Spencer's anger began to rise as his
memory went back to that night in
the past. Winnie gently reached out
her hand and said eve forgive. Spen-
Ger quickly followed suit and there
was much pleasure after all in doing
so. The two men returned to the val

was noticeable. The broncho busting,
roping, and horse racing were carried
out in true western style. In the horse
race the committee asked Winnie to
ride. They knew of her ability as a
rider and fondness for horses. She
protested and said that she had lost
her nerve for fast riding. Spencer
was asked to intercede. The ranch
boys brought up fine black horse for
her to look at. The fire lit up in her
eyes, the old spirit came back. She
consented to ride in the race. The
other riders were young men used to
the saddle and she told them to ride
with the intention of winning, disre-
garding her. Mounted she presented
her old time figure. The race was into
the center of town where the stand
was erected, the judges being there,
also most of the people. At the sound
of the pistol the six riders were off and
went laundering down the street, Win

were wild with excitement, caught her

Chicago, Aug. 16.-For the second
time within week, an 9,0550, check
was on it's way to Colonel E. F. Brad
ley today, leaving in it's wake even
more furore than when it posed before
newspaper photographers after the
Kentuckian's Boot-to-Boot won the
July 81 revival of the American derby
at the Washington park race track
here.
Six hours after the race, newspaper
men were summoned to film the draft,

the money, and brought him to po-
lice headquarters where he was

relative to the clubs activities were

yer said that real dinner would be

He stated also that there was treat

Because of the special dinner at the
church, it was voted that the regular

pensed with.

rue led by Jack Choate in his charac-
teristically vigorous. manner. Mr.. Har-
thorn introduced the Hon. w. T. Gardi-
ner, who held the interest of his au-
ditors with a short talk on the grand
ducky of Luxembourg, a country with
which he is quite thoroughly familiar.
He referred to it as the little buffer
state between France and Germany,
having an area of 999 square miles, a
country with which the inhabitants
were so we'll satisfied that they made
no effort to acquire and annex even a
mile and a half more to bring 1t over
the thousand mark A country which
has of itself made little history, but
has afforded great opportunities to
others.
Luxembourg, the speaker said, hav-
ing now a population of about 250,0
and occupying a place on the map
about the size of our Kennebec coun-
ty, was originally a part of Charlie
magne's empire, coming in for devel-
opment after the Franco-Prussian
war. He spoke of the natives as a
happy, carefree people, many of whom
spoke French and German, while the
masses expressed themselves in a
patois made up of the two tongues.
He dwelt for a short time on the city
of Luxembourg, built upon a precip-
itous cliff and which as a fertilization
at one time compared favorably with
Gibraltar.
Mr.. Gardiner, who has visited the
country of which he spoke thre times,
twice since the World War, pictured
its appearance on his later trips, re-
marking upon the standing army, con-
sisting of only a hundred and fifty
soldiers in gorgeous uniforms which
were not restricted to any one particu-
lar style or color scheme. On one oc-
casion they might appear in certain
cuts and colors, and on the next 1t
| would be entirely different.
And although this little parcel OF
land has so often been the bone of con-
tention between neighboring nations,
| it is still an independent grand duchy.
Mr.. Gardeners informal talk was
very interesting to Rotarians present
and was received with warm applause.

WILD GREETING

women, eager to touch these heroes.
slap their backs, run fingers through
their hair or even kiss them.
When Hornsby and his players
stepped from the train they were met
by a citizens reception committee
headed by Mayor Victor Miller. The
Cardinal leader was presented with
$4,000 Lincoln sedan, the gift of his
st. Louis admirers. He Immediately
piled into it along with his wife and
took his place in the parade just
where he requested he be placed
bringing up the rear.
Hornsby insisted that his players
ride in the first automobiles.
The parade was led by a detail OF
mounted police, then followed dele
cation of firemen carrying the Ameri-
can flag Next in line were nine men
dressed as redbirds carrying a six
foot redbird aloft. In addition to the
players the automobiles carried K. NJ
Lands, commissioner of baseball;
President John A. Heydler Of the Ma
tionaI League; Sam Breadon, president
of the st. Louis Cardinal club; Branch
Hickey business manager of the Car
dinal team, and other baseball digni-
taries.
The parade was disorganized at
times into as many units rs there
were automobiles. and each motor car
bore volunteer passengers who chung
to tenders, bumpers and running
boards. disregarding their own safety
in order to get closeup of their idols
and yell a word of cheer.
Two bands, strung out by the crowd
and jostled here and there, managed
to keep up a lively tune all the way,
although their efforts were almost
drowned out by the continuous cheer
ing. As the parade moved into the
business district, traffic became jam
med, automobile drivers began to
backfre their engines to add to the din.
Hornsby's automobile, the last of
the parade, was guarded by eight po-
licement who rode on its running
boards and tenders and made an effort
to keep the crowd from marring its
fresh paint and, at some points along
the route, from dragging Hornsby out
to be welcomed in person.
