Pedro and Charley Saunders were the only Quarter Circle KT cowboys participating in the events of the first day of the Rodeo. The Mexican did a fancy roping stunt in front of the grandstand and finished his exhibition directly before the Clagstone "Six" in which Carolyn June, Ophelia, Old Heck and Skinny were sitting.
It occurred to Venters then that Wrangle had drunk his fill, and did not seem the worse for it, and might be anything but easy to catch. And, true enough, he could not come within roping reach of the sorrel. He tried for an hour, and gave up in disgust. Wrangle did not seem so wild as simply perverse.
"And the young ladies will be looking in on you now and then, so they said," and Shock bent low over his trunk working with the roping of it. "Yes, indeed," replied his mother heartily, "never you fear." And so with united and determined purpose they kept at arm's length the heart's sorrow they knew would fall upon each when alone.
"So far as my observation goes has gone for the last couple of years safety is not the one great ambition of our young lives. At least, getting into difficulties and perilous situations has become a habit with Grace Harlowe," declared Miss Briggs. "Yes, for instance, roping bandits with that Mexican lasso that the cowboys gave her last season," suggested Emma. "Why aren't you throwing it more?

His object was to secure for show purposes cinematograph pictures.
This the cow boy finds in dare-devil riding, shooting, roping and such sports when he is not engaged in fighting Indians or protecting his herds from the organized bands of white cattle thieves that infested the cattle country in those days. It was about this time that I hired to Bill Montgomery for a time to assist in taking a band of nine hundred head of horses to Dodge City.
"Will you take me to the round-up to-morrow?" I asked of the 'WB' boss. "Well, I could have a team hitched up, and Bob could drive you to the Black Nob Hill, where you can get a good view," was the tolerant reply. Bob had wrenched his foot the day before, when roping a steer, and was therefore incapacitated for anything but 'woman's work' 'a soft job.
The droop of her lips was no longer the droop of a weak yielding to sorrow, but rather the beginning of a brave facing of the future. Lite managed a grin that did not look forced. "I'll make a real range hand outa you yet," he announced confidently. "You remember the roping and shooting science I taught you before you went off to school?
Five of the members of the Camp Fire were present when Miss Ladd made this startling announcement that they had been watched secretly for a considerable time while roping off the limits of their swimming place. The other girls had taken the lead back to the camp and were a considerable distance ahead. "Are they watching us yet?" Azalia asked. "I think not," the Guardian replied.
