ahead with no little force. Though
the emergency brake was set, he

He had to keep moving. If he
stopped, those little knives would

He wished he hadn't thought about

he was. Delicatessen windows
came into his notice. In them were
big brown turkeys, roast ducks with |

7 INCLE SANS 'Wonderlands of

Parks, where millions of work
weary Americans get back to ma
ture every year-are preparing for
the greatest influx of tourists in
their history this summer.
Yellowstone, Glacier. Rainier, Sc

Parks have already augmented
their transportation fleets with for
ty-eight ultra modern, streamlined
coaches. They are the last
word in safety and comfort and
their streamline styling makes
them the mo- t beautiful sightsee-
ing coaches in the world.
Stage Coaches Used Until 1917
1t is a far cry from these luxuri-
Gus vehicles, with every feature de-
signed to promote the sightseer's
relaxation of mind and body as he
rolls through these natural fairy
lands, a far cry, indeed, from the
primitive stage coaches which, as
late as 1917, furnished transporta-
ton at Yellowstone. In that year,
ITS coaches replaced the
horse drawn stages. Since then,
these coaches have been the stan
dard means of transportation not
only at Yellowstone and Glacier,
but also at Rainier. SeQuoia, Yose-

then that he was being pursued
and with that thought in mind,
pulled over to the curb. The mir

with the significant "P. D." in

out and investigated. Sure enough
there was the horse-tied securely
to the back of the car.
That discovery caused the mo-
torist, innocent though he was, to
break into a cold sweat. Through
his mind flashed dire visions of be-
ing arrested for horsenaping or
something equally unpleasant. FL
nally, an idea came to him. AS
quickly as possible he drove back
to the exact spot from which he
had started. There, he again parked
and getting out of the car, waited
patiently for the temperance of
the rider of the horse. Minutes
passed before the officer came and
retrieved his mount. When he had
gone, the motorist got away from
