and beat if. By tomorrow afternoon I’ll 
be back home. If you ever collect twenty- 
five bones from me for a hunting license 
you’re welcome to ’em. The boys will 
probably find you in the morning and let 
you loose. Hope you have a pleasant time 
—goodnight!” “Look here, Ryder,” says 
After I was tied up Hen smoked a cig¬ 
arette and asked me how I liked it 
I; “this is all a joke and I think it’s gone 
far enough. I’ve been pretending I’m a 
game warden and—” “Yeh,” he breaks 
in skeptically, “likely story that—if you 
ever get a chance tell it to the marines!” 
With that he walks off in the gloom and 
in a few minutes I heard the door shut. 
I T was quite a cool night—in fact it felt 
like frost. I comforted myself with the 
thought, that when Ryder told the boys 
his story they would reveal the joke and

get restless. I tugged at the rope, but 
Ryder had done a good job. I tried to 
call out, but my voice was lost in that 
handkerchief across my mug. Meanwhile

About midnight a figure approached. It 
was Bill. He expressed surprise at find¬ 
ing me tied and loosed me in a jiffy. He 
said Ryder had mysteriously disappeared. 
Then I limped back to camp after him. 
When we entered there sat Sam and 
Doc and—RYDER! They were all grin¬ 
ning. Ryder pulled a paper out of his 1 
When I read Hen’s license I realized for 
the first time that I was the goat 
pocket and handed it to me without com¬ 
ment. It was a sure enough hunting 
license in his name! 
“Double-crossed and diamond-hitched!” 
I groaned and this was followed by glee¬ 
ful whoops of joy from everybody present 
—except myself. 
Be sure that your match or cigarette sti 
is out before you throw it away.
