J. =. Timon Of the North Topeka t
Furniture company was somewhat SUR
prised recently when LON Berry OF FL I
mont sauntered into his store and In
formed him that someone war hauling
hay from his farm which II located !,
northwest Of North Topeka.
Tlmon had . large amount Of choice !,
hay ON his farm but was not aware |
that any OF It was being hauled away. |
He Investigated at once. He, at once !
started to the farm in company with an !!
officer ana met the man who was haul !
ing the hay. The man admitted tax
ing II when questioned by Mr.. Timon
and the officer. The man with the hay
told q story Of hard times. two, little
children In school that must be sup
ported. s
Now. J.,-E Timon has . very big
heart. He listened to the mans story
and told him that If he would either
return the hay or pay for It he would
not prosecute.
Thia the. man promised to do. Mr..
Timon says that he thinks that the
promise will be. carried out. Although
