correspondence
Dear Mr.. Editor:

Please allow me onIy a little space
in your paper to say something about our
beef story. Sometime ago | read in the
S.. Thomas papers that they had hinder
ed all expectation of cattle from both the
islands Of St. Thomas and ST. Johns.
What. relation is St. Croix to those is
lands? would say sister. and yet St.
Croix is shipping away all the cattle they
can find nd leaving the place in such a
state that the butchers will soon have no
beef to supply their customers. The peo-
pie of ST. Croix is dead to that fact. I
know a certain butcher that tried all
he could to get . calf small or large
for slaughter to supply his customers
and everywhere almost was told that
what they had was already sold to Porte
Rico.
What a thing /? Are we soon not TO
have any beef at all :?
Thanking you for space

FIND BANK

st. Paul, July S.-Two small girls in
Medford, Mimi, are buying real candy
with real money instead of imaginary
candy with what they thought was
play. money, all because the play"
money turned out to be worth about
$500. O0O.f
The play money proved to be the
.non-negotiable papers taken from the
Great Northern State bank, st. Paul,
June IS. by foul holdup who
stole securities and $10,186 in cash
and Liberty bonds, after which they
made their escap in an automobile
driven by a fifth man.
While playing along the Straight
river the girls found a pillow case
washed upon the bank and when they
investigated discovered it was partly
filled with gold embossed papers.
They Immediately established a
store" and took turns buying, using
the securities as cash." !
w. A.. Bailey, postmaster at Owa-
tonna, six miles from Medford, sap
pened to be passing in his automobile
and was a witness to the business
transacted by the two girls. Curiosity
prompted him to investigate and he
soon discovered the real value Of the
4papers and notified E. E. Gonnor,
president of the looted bank.
Mr.. Conner made a bee line for
Medford, paid the girls the advertised
reward Of $500 and recovered his Sc
curities, watersoaked but not depreci-
ated in value ,

SMILE WITH Us.

One of the very substantial men Of
a thriving town in the west is named
Garry Mcintyre. One day in CONVEX
sation with a number of soldiers from
a military post nearby he said:
Il understand you lads are going
on a hike. When you reach Snake
river take a good look at it. 1t is full
Of Inducements and eddies. Boys, I
am the only living man who ever
swan that river"
Several days later the men crossed
the Snake river on a cable ferry. The
ferryman CHANGED to inquire quite
casually of a waiting soldier:
do you know a mar down in
your country by the name of Garry
McIntyre? They tell me he has &C
cumtlated a lot Of money"
II was talking to him only the
other day." said the soldier. HE told
me he swan Snake river once"
That's right, he did, said the
ferryman. He sure did; but we
were all shooting at him."
