LAMONT LADS DO
DAMAGE AT SCHOOL

Lamont March 12.-Recently two
young lads from Lamont went to Togo
and in moment Of thoughtlessness
wrecked the school building pretty
badly. One Of the lads had 20
caliber rife and after shooting some
of the windows out they took club
and smashed out some more. On the
inside they tore up the desks and
scattered the books over the room.
We do not believe these lads had any
idea Of how serious an ofRense they
were committing. and can not find
out any reason unless 1t was pure mis-
chievousness. as they had nothing
against the teacher or any Of the
scholars so far as we are able to
learn. Tuesday Luther Jackson and
Franklin Hicks we're taken before
Justice Turner and charged with the
>offense They admitted doing the
damage but could give no reason for
doing It, County Attorney Baker came
down on the evening train and took
the matter up. On account of the age
Of the lads 1t was decided that the
best thing that could be done would be
to have the parents pay for repairing
the damage.
