Must Hdue Been Texas

A girl in the East established a record recently by kissing several thousand western sold ies. The boys double-crossed the young lady by doubling back and around the building and jolning the procession the sec ond and third time. The leaders of the bunch of ''Doughboys" must have been sons of the old time Texas cow men, who in early days had a habit of run ming cattle around a hill and counting them twice on unsu- specting purchasers.

Acknowledges Receipt
 of Christmas Box

The letter printed below was received a few days ago by Mrs. G. M. Braxton, pre- sident of the Holbrook Knit ting Club, from Serg. R. P. Schuster, now in the U. S. army training camp at Camp Funston, Kan. The letter bears the date line of Camp Funston, Dec. 13, 1917, and is as follows:
 Dear Mrs. Braxton:
 The box of sweets so kind ly sent by the Holbrook Knitting Club to me, as one of the boys from Navajo county, arrived a few days ago.
 I take this opportunity to thank the members of the club thru you.
 Even though the box was meant for Xmas I could not wait to open it and when 1 did the boys surely helped me enjoy everything that was in it.
 Perhaps it would interest the "Club' that one of our boys boys, Bob Meyenberg, has been ordered to France. They take him because of his knowledge of the French language and he will be in the branch known as the military police, to help direct and keep our boys lover there" straight.
 Again thanking you I beg to remain
 Yours very truly
 Sgt. R. P. SCHUsTER.

WEEKLY CREST OF EVENTS That HaUe Been Noted by The NerOs' Staff for the Edifcation or Its Readers. Really Worth PerusdI.
Good Detectiue Work

A pretty piece of detec-
 tive work was done Tuesday
 by Sheriff Newman an q
 Chief Deputy Harp, which
 resulted in the arrested of a
 thief and the recovery of a
 large amount of his loot.
 Some time during the night of Monday 27 sacks of four were stolen from a car at the A. c. M. l. ware house, which had been part ly unloaded during the day. The loss was noticed Tues day morning by employees of the company after they dis covered that the seal of the car had been broken.
 Sheriff Newman was in formed of the robbery and at once began an investiga- tion. Antonio Moline, who lives in a shack near the rail road east of the light plant, was suspected, and when his premises were searched 15 sacks of the flour were found. Previously ten of the stolen sacks were found in the house of a Mexican across the river and the remaining two were found in a house west of the Rabbit ware house. Both of the parties in possession of the flour claimed that they had | bought 1t from MOllnO, and | this Moline confessed to Un- dersherif Harp Wednesday after his arrest.
 In addition to the 15 sacks of four found in the Moline shack, the sheriff and his deputy found a part of a sack of sugar, about 100 pounds of coffee, and a num- Der of other articles. These Moline confessed that he had stolen from the general mer- chandise store of H. H. Scorse.
 Moline has been in trouble before. Some weeks ago he was arrested as one of the participants in a brawl, in which a young man received a knife wound in the abdo- men. The man who did the stabbing, Dolores Muniz, was taken to the state peni- tentiary last week by sheriff Newman to begin a sentence of 5 years for the crime.

Work on Auditorium Stopped

WOTR on Auditorium Stopped
 It is too bad that the work on the Normal auditorium has been called to a halt. As we are TO authority on concrete work, the argument in the case is better handled by those responsible for the works cessation and those who claim to know that it could have been safely continued for weeks longer, if not all winter. Some say it can't be did" and some say it can-so there you are. But we repeat that it is too bad the work could not have been rapidly pushed to completion.
