# Western Story Magazine, February 27, 1926

This issue of the Street & Smith pulp magazine features western fiction and serialized adventures. The lead novel is "The Man He Couldn't Get" by George Owen Baxter, detailing the long vendetta between John Tipton, a virtuous Texas ranger descended from generations of Devon lawmen, and Hubert Dunleven, a short-statured criminal with mixed ancestry who repeatedly escapes capture. Their encounters span years and locations from Texas to the Mississippi River, with Tipton pursuing Dunleven across multiple fights and arrests. The issue contains two serials: the second installment of "Joy" by Max Brand and the final part of "Get Jimps!" by Arthur Preston Hankins. Five short stories include "Sam and the Thirsty Cowboys" by Robert Ormond Case and "When He Didn't Have a Chance" by Edward T. Glyn. A nonfiction article covers Pioneer Towns of the West, and miscellaneous content includes western-themed facts and folklore.
