copied from the Kane Republican: "The
eucher party given in the basement OF
the church last evening was attended by
a large crowd, despite the fact lbat many
other attractions were offered in the city.
George Shredder was successful in carry
ing off the first prize, a handsome UNI
brella. Elmer Hart won the BOBBY prize
Thieves, who brought a two-horse
sled with them, broke into a clothing
store at Clearfield on Wednesday night
and carried off $1,000 worth of the stock OF
the proprietors, The Deidrich-Goldberg
Company. A heavy sno obliterated the
tracks made by sleigh and horses and the
robbers got away. This amount OF goods
would start a fair sized crossroads store
on pretty good footing, unless the goods
were marked too high, which might be
the case in this instance.
-Sermonizing on the old saying, "Boys
will be boys" the Bradford Era says
"ADd it may also be added that boys will
be men-irthey live long enough. Boys
ought to be good, but they are so full o
human nature that they are not so good
AS they might be. There are boys who
like to stay out late at nights. Some o
them get drinks under false pretense
representing themselves as being of age
when they are minors of very minol
mental devo lopment. They are taking
their first lessons in dissipation and are
laying up troubles for Themselves in thu
form of habits which will some day be
curse to them. Bartenders are usually
careful about giving drinks to minors
but they cannot tell by intuition how ole
ayouth is, after he has reached the siz'
of an a%dult-and after he has become al
adept in lying. Boys of that sort shoulC
receive special parental attention which
too often, is neglected"
