him TO have, and whether he gets any
OF not, the courts and lawyers will be

1t is reported that Bob West stayed
in Hazelton two nights last week, end
that he is in Wichita at present, but what
seems queer to us is that our officers let
him stay here two nights and made no
effort to capture him. or notify the sheriff,
but it is possible they didn't know it or
perhaps they didn't try to capture him.
We wonder which.
Ray Eaknis and Miss Pearl Prock
had been acting little suspicious for a
long time, and one day last week they
slipped off to Wichita and received life
sentence. 1t served them right, for they
are both fine young people and nothing
short of life sentence would be suh-
cient punishment for the amount of oil
and coal they have burned up for Mr..
Prock. Here's hoping they may never
ask for pardon or parole. but live to a
ripe old age. and as the years increase
may their sentence become more enjoy
able.
