Percy smaiiwood and James Scott
used 90 be good friends Had they
not been friends. Percy would prob
ably be in the penitentiary now in
stead Of the Jail
He was out Of q Job and had no
money. He knew where James kent
his clothes in the house at lls First
street northwest
While James was away at work.
Percy raised the front window, like
a regular burglar would. and got In
the house
Then he swiped a good suit Of
clothes and an almost new pair Of
shoes and crawled back out through
the window again
Afterwards. he carried the things
to Georgetown and sold them for
sl2. He did not say what he did
with the money.
Ordinarily an offense like this
puts q man in the burglar class and
pins q penitentiary sentence on him
on q charge OF housebreaking and
larceny.
But Percy was charged with petit
larceny only. He admitted being
guilty and explained that he was
broke and had to have money.
The court sent him down the river
for four months.

sorry for that crippled boy

together and do something to
help the boy. We might all write
him about the strange things we
see or hear Of happening each
week so he could write an imag-
mary story about 1t. I am start
ing this so others can add to
this idea He could also ask
other crippled boys through The

money"
This is a very good idea and II
