Mrs. Bradshaw, mother of the two girls, is sure that the girls followed out their threats to "leave home," which they have made repeatedly during the past month. ' KISS MOTHER GOODBYE . On the morning of July 6, Junie Bradshaw, with, her younger sister, left the home of her father and mother, for the camp five miles south, near the edge of a rocky slope. Mrs. Bradshaw recalled at the time that Junie, leaning over in the saddle of her horse, kissed her mother, and with tears in her eyes bade her goodbye. The next night, when the parents Visited the camp they found no trace of the girls, and several articles of wearing ap parel were missing. A . small bit of change in a check book was found on the table, and pointed toward preparation for 'flight "- vSrr.-r3U-.r;- JUNIE IS SIXTEEN " It is the belief of Mrs.; Brad shew that the girls have sought the highway and by ride and lifts south, were able' to reach a California city,' where they sought work, as they had often threatened to do. ' . v. n Another hope on which the mother has based the finding of the girls, is to the effect that they may be in hiding at the home jot a nearby rancher. She thoroughly scouts the theory of kidnaping.. According to Mrs. Brad shaw, Junie, the oldest is 16 years of age, and not 13 as previously reported - by , the father. Esther, - the younger, is 13. Fear that Junie would base her right to leave home on the fact that she was 16, has led several to believe that her true age was kept from her by her father. ' The camp waa left as tha parents had seen it the night before the dis appearance ot the two slaters and showed no sign ot s struggle or fight. The faot that the girls had often talked about going south has led the mother to refuse to listen to the stories broadcast concerning their death or kidnaping. A miniature corral at one side of the camp where the young girls lived during the past two weeks, links a part ot the tender side ot story. Tearfully the mother told how Esther and June had brought a baby lamb to camp with them tor company and had gathered stone from the rocky slope In which to ,teep their pet. Sheriff Sharp and his dcputle are working faithfully to uncover any clues which may present them- . selves In order to aid the grief stricken mother. infringing on the university's courses ot study.
