HEARTS ARE TRUMPS
 AT CHRISTMAS TIME
Tragedy if Child Should Have Christmas Come And Go
 Without Ecstasy

IF YOU have no child of your own, you must borrow or beg one for Christmas eve for it is the time when the world lights it's happiness with child's joy, writes pr. James l. Vance, in the Illinois State Journal.
 Only child may have the right of way on Christmas eve. Ii you do not stand in with the children, you must stand aside.
 1t is the hour when the world makes a cradle it's shrine when not only wise men from the East, but grown-ups from all parts of the compass slip down over the hills of memory toward ehildhood's dawn, say ing under their breath: "We have seen his star in the East and are come to worship him.
 What a wonderful thing is this yearning of the old world for the happiness of children that climaxes at Christmas The better side of human na- ture comes to the front. We throw off our eynieism. Mean ness is shamed into generosity, and for little while on Christ mas eve the tightWads of earth have a look in on paradise.
 Was there ever sweeter eagefness a holier joy, a more heavenly anticipation, than that which all through the house is felt on Christmas eve? Every enc is thinking of making somebody happy. The deIici- ous ssc1etiveness of it intensi- fies the thlill. Care is forgot ten. Expectation is ringing the bells. Peace is over all the

CAUGHT ROBBINC
 JIMMERSONS STORE
Boyd and Fitzhugh Holmes Captured in Act atnd Are
 Taken to Jail

Boyd Holmes and Fitzhueh Holmes were captured Satur- day night in the act of robbing Jimmerson Brothers store in Logan township.
 Theo Jimmerson who con- ducts the store, lives just across the public road short distance from the store. He was awakened during the night by a m Il file q noise. H e thought the noise was at the store, but after going to his bedroom door and listening a few moments the noise ceased and he decided he was mistak- en and went back to bed. Hearing the noise again in a short time, he awakened MT. Wherry, an old gentleman
 Vho was staying with him, anf together they went over to the store. MT Wherry threw 9 rock against the store and one of the Holmes boys made nasty getaway. The other was hemmed in the store and Mr. Jimmerson attempted to shoot at him, but his gun snap ped. Boyd Holmes who had escaped, began firing at Jim nlerson and several shots were exchanged but all went wild.
 Mr. Wherry yelled for help, and Boyd Holmes who had es- capped ran back. thinking it was the boy he left in the store that was crying for help. When Boyd Holmes ran back to the store, Mr. Wherry nab- bed him although Wherry was unarmed, he took Holmes gun away from him and held him until help arrived. Fitzhugh Holmes who was still in the store was then captured and the piar were turned over to Sheriff Harris and taken to Batesville and placed in jail.
 Boyd Holmes is about 25 years old and is married and has a family. Fitzhugh Holm es is only about 19 years old and is nephew of Boyd Holmes.
 Fitzhugh Holmes has been attending school at Sulphur Rock. Both come of good families and have never been in trouble. It is said, however, that the gun taken away from Boyd Holmes by Mr. Wherry was later identified by Dr. J. P. Dorr as one that was stolen from his store when 1t was rob- bed recently. It is said that other things that have come to light since their capture, lead the officers to believe that the Holmes boys have been impli- cated in other robberies in that community.
