THE 0WNER 0F THE WATCH F0UND

0n the second day following, a number of the Hilltop kids went downto the other camp to take part in the athletic games appointed forthat day, and to witness the sports, the greater part of them beingpresent.

The physician had selected Jack Sheldon to take part in the motor-boatraces, Percival as a runner and also a boatman, Harry, Arthur, andyoung Fulbright in the second-class motor-boats, Herring and one or twoothers as swimmers, and Billy Manners and Seymour to take part inthe tub race, besides a few others in other contests.

Dick Percival was not altogether pleased that Herring should havebeen chosen to represent the school in anything, but as the bullywas really a fine swimmer, as well as runner and jumper, he swallowedhis chagrin, and said nothing.

"They may like Pete's swimming," he exclaimed to himself, "but if they getan idea that the rest of the Hilltoppers are like him it will bepretty rough on the rest of us."

Jack, Dick, and a number of the boys went down in their boats, whileHerring, Merritt, Holt, and quite a number more took the train.

The childs were well received and Jack, Dick, Herring and the rest whomwere to take part in the sports went to the dressing rooms back ofthe club home used by the other childs.
