"A motherly looking woman was seen
on Main street today who walked from

yet she did not do any shopping.
After shadowing her for while q
reporter concluded that she must be
a sleuth and with the effrontery which
all Newspaper men are supposed to
possess he approached her and in q
few words told the woman the result
of his deductions. With charming
frankness she admitted her guilt and
fell into . discussion of her business.
This woman has been assisting the
police department at Christmas time
for number Of years. Shoplifters

said sympathetically.
Elsie suddenly put her fists in her eyes
