A Break in on DR.. BlOSser.

Last Tuesday night at about mid
night, DR.. Blosser was aroused with
a violent alarm at his door. The call
was not the accustomed knock, but
continuous hammer and bang. The
DR.. responsive to his professional duty
got up of course. expecting to hear
of deaths angel interfering with
his business, or burglar trying to
steal the carpet off the floor. When
he opened the door he was "knocked
down" with cane in the hands Of
his son Frank,!!
The sequel to the midnight raid
IS pleasant news. DR.. Blosser had
reached that day the half century
milestone on the journey. His son
Frank one Of the most efficent and
most esteemed officers ct the Boys
Industrial School, biding his time,
made the midnight raid, and present
ed his father with fifty dollar, gold
headed cane, in evidence that he was
not forgotten on his th-day, by his
boy.
With Frank and the thousand of
warm friends of DR.. Blosser we unite
in congratulations upon the success
the years of lie to the fitch have
attended his labors, and hope that in
all and the many years to come, his
birthdays. and the break in the mid.
night sleep may be as pleasant as
the one on last Tuesday night.
