Take Your Music With You
Was there ever a camp "under the wide and
starry sky" at which those who gather about the
fire at night do not want music?
Just the music you enjoy most is always avail

At the Southern Pacific depot there
was a large crowd of friends and rela

the boys alighted from the train they
climbed into the autos and were
whirled away to their homes. Others
came down town and greeted old i
friends.
They are all fine-looking, worthy
representatives of the Capital City,
and it is no wonder they made a fine
impression on the people of eastern

also know the mountains of Idaho, and
