Someone Who Is Described as Mean
er Than Kaiser Ever Mas.
To The Free Press: While We were
out for a short time Sunday after
noon some sneaking theft came and
opened the door and stole our pet
dog. The person who would be guilty
of doing such dirty work is meaner
than the kaiser ever was or ever will
be. We are troubled to death with
everyone coming in our door-yard
to look for the river or for an ex-
cuse to leave their car, and if we
are gone to steal! They well know
the river is not around the house,
and whoever the person or persons
was who took the dog please return
him or when you die the Lord will say
where Is that dog you stole that day?
