Suckers are beginning their an

lower reaches of the creek, nearer
the lake, but for some unobstructed
distance up the stream they have
made their way, and several men
have got all they want of fine large

/. When Mrs. John Shultz, of the
southwest part of town, came from
the union meetings at the high
school last night, she could not find
the car in which she had driven to
the place and parked at the front of
the building. Night Officer Green
was notified, and his activity noticed
the machine on the upper part of
Egan n When the occupants
found that he was after them they
abandoned the car, and 1t was re-
turned to the owner this morning.
1t is thought that the temporary
theft of the car was by young men
who themselves have no cars, but
who have the habit of riding and the
desire, known to officers as joyrid-
ers. They generally return the cars
to a place neal where they got 1t,
provided they do not meet with some
accident before their ebulient spirits
have cooled, or they are not arrest
ed. And sometimes they get away
with the practice for a considerable
time before an accident occurs.
