we're seen on the street with their

which they sold wherever a buyer
could be found. This escapade was
followed By a venture into th= per.

This was disposed Of as had the shoe

not empty, their contents were poured
upon the floor unfortunately and

were disposed Of at the firm Of Green

ownership OF the sacks was little Dit

for the simple reason that the market
was stopped Then the enterprising
lads sought revenge, stole into the
Green & Rogers warehouse and pro,
ceeded to pour a quantity of oil over

a question just how badly damaged
the motor really IS.

sought scrap iron, bu- Mr.. Conrad,
thinking probably they sought the
brass and copper fitting from the yari-

request Very reyengeful are these De

later to procure paint OF various and

buggy sheds, where stood a newly
painted and vanished buggy, and ap
ply their paint so industrieusly and
