"Out West," was the answer. "I am planning a big drama, to be called
'East and West,' and I think it will be our best effort."

"Out West," said Ruth, softly. "I wonder what will happen to us out
there?"

And the answer may be found by reading the next book of this series, to
be entitled "The Moving Picture Girls at Rocky Ranch; Or, Great Days
Among the Cowboys."

The day following the finding of the lost girls the _Magnolia_ started
back for Sycamore. It was reached without accident, or incident of
moment, and how the whole town rejoiced when it was known that the two
Madison girls were aboard the boat! There was a veritable holiday.

The moving picture girls, too, came in for their share of attention, and
had Uncle Joshua been there he probably would have been one of the
centres of attraction. But, after being suitably rewarded, he went back
to his palm hut, which had served the lost girls so well.

Russ made a few more films, to complete the set wanted, and then came a
packing-up for the return to New York. Before that, however, Mr. Madison
insisted on being the host to the entire company at a garden fete in
honor of his daughters' safe return.

"Oh, but it was lovely under the palms, even if we did get lost," said
Alice, as they started on their northward journey.

"Indeed it was," agreed Ruth. "I wonder if we will like the West as
well."
