ELKHORN RESTAURANT ED CHINN, Prop. "Pulling Leather" Crime In Cowboy's Lexicon To a real cowboy, that is a buck aroo, a rider of mean horses, the su preme sin is "pulling leather." As pulling leather consists merely in grabbing the horn of the saddle it has no particular consequence in the eyes of the layman save as a possible means of keeping off the ground and avoiding injury. A real buckaroo, with his heart in his work and taking pride in his tech nique, will be thrown rather than pull leather. Last fall at .the Round-Up, No water Slim, one of the best riders in the business, had just got piled from the back of Cal Coolidge, a gaunt, ;ray demon with pronounced ability along the sun-fishing lines. Slim got up and dusted off his pants disgustedly. "Why didn't you pull leather, Slim?" asked a tall photographer who was taking in his first Round-Up. Slim looked at him in his tired, ouizzical way and then looked into the blue sky knowingly. "Did yuh see any leather up there where I was at, stranger?" Slim queried sarcastically. "Gosh dinged ef I did!" But hope springs eternal in the cowboy chest and Slim will be back at the Round-Up this year with vis ions of winning the bucking cham pionship during the days of Septem ber 15, 16, 17 and 18. He has as good a chance aa any, for there's many a winner who knows the taste of the arena's dust, and the best of them get piled at times. FOR SALE Milch cows. Ranch, Butter creek; postofflce, Echo.
