"LEAP
YEAR"
A ROMANCE OF PIONEER COUNTRY
kOMA
"LAHOMA"
"Lahoma" is a story of the early
me ll & days in the territory now known
as Oklahoma. Every man, in those
'Vn days, was a maker of history. The
countryanow comprising Oklahoma
was, in 1880, at the time the story
opens, known as No Man's Land.
It was set aside as Indian country
and white settlers were forbidden
t ! +j]\ 1to locate on it.
A picturization of John Breck-
enridge Ellis's novel of the .same
name, "Laho'fna" depicts in vivid
manner the adventure and ro-
mance of white settlers on the for-
~ **$ ~bidden, land. Brave-hearted and
courageous were these men and
their women folks. Pioneers in a
is _ r rnew country where dangers lurked
at every turn, they blazed the trail
h< to civilization.
s.: r ;<oThe central figure in the story
is a girl, beautiful Lah'oma, a waif
who is brought up in the Western
} k a .O °hills by two kind old men, one an
mutlaw and the other a cynic. They
9-. 9 are like doting mothers in their
0 tender care of the girl. A pretty
little romance is introduced when
dtion Lahoma falls in love with a young
cowboy, who is looked upon with
