We rather think that automobile
stealing has come to an end for time
at least, and it has turned out to be
just as we said-some local party.
John Peulse, working for Willis Wylie,
IS year old boy, is the guilty party.
He was arrested on Saturday for the
theft of the Fritch car and at first de-
MED he took it but finally wilted and
acknowledged that he took that and
also Dr. Zimmerman's car. Sheriff
Larson got track Of him through lit
tie boy. 1t seems that Peulse took
with him the other night Hans Peter
son, 10 years old, and boy named
Erickson, 6 years old, and went joy
riding. When in the neighborhood of
the creamery they ran into ditch and
young Peterson went through the wind
shield, the sheriff getting the story
out Of this little boy, as result
Peulse was placed under arrest and is
now awaiting disposition of his case
F.; in the county Jail. He is too young for
a penitentiary sentence But the least
the authorities can do in our judg-
ment is to send him to the reform
school. Only strict justice will put a
, stop to this practice Of stealing peo-
pies cars for joy riding.

this morning near the creamery with

Every man in the big city who has not retired
10 any one line Of business. This IS SO true
The statement is confined, OF course, 10 the
business men Of the better class-not 10 the
Shopkccpcrs. The idea is that which is called
having two strings to your bow And the
idea Is SO general that "evcryhody"s doing IL"
J., IS not considered as vcerins from the
straight and narrow path for a city minister TO
oGcasionniiy take a hier," and many OF the
cloth Will talk as inteiiigently about "prete-red
stocks" as he talks about abstract theology
only he does the former less consp!cuotSiy.
This is one OF the reasons why the man in the
big city, II inc is speculative, is better TO do H.
nanciaily than the man in the country town.
Another reason les that there arc more oppor-
~tun!ties in the metropolis. And another is,
that the big city man is compelled to have more
:han one string to his bow.
In the few surveys ! have been permitted TO
make in the small town, with few exceptions,
tue excess strings 10 the bow is quite as pre- va
lent. TO a lesser degree, as Il is in the city. Tho
bows are not 80 long. consequently, the strings
are shorter.
In one little town I found n banker who is
also president OF a string OF banks in nearby
towns. l found u merchant who has two dis
tinct lines. OF business in towns larger than the
one in which. he lives. / found q t~inkcrer who
owns and directs the work Of n productive
