| 520 | _aThe girl at Silver Thistle by Max Hale is a juvenile adventure novella written in the early 20th century. Set at a remote desert pump-station on a Western railroad, it centers on a budding friendship between a station keeper’s daughter and a railroad superintendent’s daughter, and on the courage that blossoms when danger threatens. Nevada Buckley lives with her parents at the Silver Thistle water stop in the Mohave. When Superintendent Foster’s “Special” arrives, his daughter Debue is stung by a scorpion, and Nevada’s quick, skillful care saves her; the superintendent leaves Debue to recuperate with the Buckleys for a week. The girls become fast friends amid trains, signal lamps, and desert sunsets, though a mysterious prowler unsettles Nevada. On their last evening, Debue loses her way, and in searching for her Nevada discovers three armed men plotting to rob the approaching paymaster’s car. Nevada finds Debue, and together they race to the tracks, seize a semaphore’s red lamp, and flag the “Special” before it reaches the ambush. The would‑be robbers flee, the train is safe, and a grateful Foster invites Nevada east to study with Debue, sealing their friendship and opening a new life for the desert girl.
