When last Sunday night between
nine and ten one of the nine wild
overs in town was seen climbing
into window of one of the four
teen maiden ladies' houses. This
usually quiet village would soon
have been convulsed with SANDER,
had not the situation been immedi-
ately explained. The lady return
ing from church failed to find the
key to her home. After diligent
search and trying some neighbor-
hood keys which also failed her,
the man offered to climb into the
window and open a rear door.
Thus "Dame SANDER" was cheated
and that which looked bad proved to
De only deed of kindness.
