Vandals, or some other species of
the human family, entered the G.. A.
Lenhart home Sunday afternoon.

road supervision Of the Sixth dis
trict, for the arrest and conviction
of the party or parties taking ma

amount taken was not so great but

to certain place 10 do a days
work, expecting to find the material
on the ground and on arriving there
find that the material has been stoin.
Even though the county furnishes
the material (Which we are not pre-
pared to say in this particular case)

taxpayer, neither does it make the

guilty person or persons should re-
ceive just punishment for their mis-
deeds.

our citizens.
