Bakery Burglarized

Thieves entered the Purity
Bakery and stole about SOC in
cash, three watches, two pipes,
two knives, and some razors.
They also drank two bottles of
pop, appropriated two cigarettes
and scattered things around to
some extent, some time last night.
From all appearances, it was the
work of two youths, ,one of whom
evidently crawled through a rear
window and opened the back
door for the other. A lamp was
used to locate the goods. The
robbery was discovered by the
baker when he went to work this
morning.

This years seal, printed in
three colors and portraying
Santa Claus in gleeful smile,
full of Christmas cheer, will de.
light their hearts.
Opportunity to carry on the
crusade against the disease will
be given to the children of the
Mansfield public schools as well
as to those of every school in
Wright county and in the state.
Last year 1,3s9,737 seals were
sold in 569 different communi
ties in Missouri and it is ex
pected that in this years cam
paign these figures will be in
creased by so per cent. Beau
tiful Santa Claus blotters in
three colors will be given u
children who sell seals. Rural
teachers should order consign,
ments.
This town and this county
must do its share in the fight to
suppress the disease. Buy the
seals from the children or at
places where they are for sale.
They may be purchased from
the secretary in Columbia,
Every seal you use and the
whole of every cent you pay
will help save some child from
infection.
