A peculiar ard rather uncommon
thing was witnessed on our streets
last Monday night-a large, able
bodied man begging for money. His
breath was strong enough to send a
sober man to Keeling, hence he got
nothing.

advertising department of the Record
Herald, fell on an icy walk one day
last week and sustained injuries
which necessitated his being operated
upon yesterday. He went into St.
Mary's hospital Monday.

lated packages arrived

Notwithstanding that there were
so many strangers in town Christmas
and so many people bubbling over
with Christmas ''spirits," there was
little rowdyism and few arrests were
made. A Merrill couple came down
Saturday to make Christmas visit |
with acquaintance, but when the
company edged their chairs up to-
ward the turkey on Sunday, the lady's |
was missing. The police
'ay that they found him trying to
make people believe that he was
at Jack Johnson's trade, SO
they put him under cover. It's
queer how a good many of those
Merrill people cut up when they get |
INTO big city.
