PETTY THIEVING
BY SMALL BOYS
Store Proprietors Threaten Severe
Measures - One Youngster Stole
Handbag in Dentists Office.

Numerous small boys are pilfering fruit
and other articles displayed in front of
stores and some of them are becoming so
bold that they are not hesitating to enter
stores and, under pretense of looking for
some person or some thing, steal small ar
tlcles. Several have been caught and made
uncomfortable by store proprietors or
clerks, but first aid treatment of this sort
Is having no effect apparently and stronger
measures are threatened in several in
stances.
In one. instance recently a woman had
left her handbag on stand in the outer
office of dentists suite of rooms while
she had some work done. A boy entered
the outer Office and took the handbag.
He left just as the dentist finished working
on his patient.
She Immediately discovered the loss OF
her handbag and they began a search.
The boy was met in the hallway lust as he
was leaving a closet.
In one of his hands he had a s. bill
which he said he had picked up on the
floor of the hall. IN the closet was found
the handbag in which was 81 in bills in
another compartment which the boy had
missed in his haste to rid himself Of the
discriminating evidence of the bag.
The boys who are committing these
thefts are all very young, but those who
are constantly suffering small losses declare
/ that some measures must be taken to put
an end to the petty thieving.
