proximately 80 billion pounds of

ATTEMPT BANK ROBBERY

An attempt was made Friday
night to rob the vault of the Edger-
ton State Bank but it was unsuccess-
full and no loss resulted. The bur-
glars drilled hole in the steel
door near the combination and
'evidentally attempted to force off
the lock on the inside with a heavy
bar. A safety device was attached
to the combination last Wednesday
and this no doubt prevented the
burglars from opening the door. The
vault contained about $4,000 in cash
and Liberty Bonds-Bryan Damd-
crat.
