The plumber is a most necessary
person to have around, or at least
nearby. Water pipes, especially in
the winter time, are no respecters Of
time or person, and any one who has
had pipes freeze or spring an un-
timely leak appreciate what it means
to be able. to call upon a plumber like
Mr. q. G. Herold at the critical time.
He has had experience and is perhaps
as well fitted to install plumbing sys-
TENS and heating plants as any one
in theEcity, and his shop is located at
the corner of Main and Cedar streets.
His charges are very reasonable and
he is always careful, Industrious and
painstaking.

Auto Accessory Thieves
Keep on Stripping Cars

There was but little let-up last week
in the work Of what police believe is
an organized gang of automobile ac-
cessory thieves. Ten thefts were re-
ported. Five reported that their
garages had been entered and their
cars stripped of tires and other equip
ment. The rest reported losses from
their cars on the streets.
Captain Dempsey advises owners
not to purchase secondhand automo-
bile tires and equipment unless they
are convinced that the firms or per-
sons they are dealing with are re-
putable. IF there wasn't a market
for the things taken by the thieves,
they wouldn't steal them," he said.
Automobile owners are urged by
City Automobile Detective Danebaum
not to carry any more extra tires and
equipment than necessary.

In the balance today when Attorney
General H. NJ Havner went before the
senate committee on appropriations to
ask that his department be granted an
appropriation of $25000 for law en-.

he would tell the senate committee
that without S25,0oO for the employ
