MORRISVILLE BOYS UNDER
ARREST
Brief Career of Crime Stopped
by Sheriff Todd and Dep titles,
Boys Confess to Several Breaks

Morrisville people were disagreeably
surprised to learn through the daily press
Ct the arrest Of Len, Fox, Clarence Blake
and Lawrence Crowell last Thursday at
| Morrisvile and that they had been taken
| TO Chittenden County all by Sheriff Todd
and Deputy Sheriff Reeves. The young
men are charged with breaking il to store
at Jericho Corners and an attempt to
break into the Rugg dry goods store in
Essex Junction Wednesday night and are
suspected of several other breaks and
thefts perpetrated in this and other Sec
tious.
Wednesday night the "Styges" store,
owned by a m 4nnamed Quinn, was entered
by prying open a window with heavy
iron hook. A few pennies were taken from
the cash register, which was taken through
the window, and rapsacked and cigars,
cigarettes, canned goods, candy and a
couple of suits of underwear were taken.
While investigating this break early in
the morning Sheriff Todd got clue in
the shape of a Goodyear rubber heel
print which later proved valuable in APP.

Burlington to secure papers before going
further along the lines of their susp clons,
the officers were informed of the attempted
break at the Rugg Store at Essex juno
ton and at the Gil, Garage, both Of

Here Sheriff Todd was informed that
Deputy Sheriff Allen was on the trail OF
parties that had been traced to Morris
vile, where they were being watched by
Deputy J. M Kelley. They had BEEN To-
Gated through their automobile, which q
repr esentative of the American Express
Company, Dewey Perry and Station Agent
Howard, had seen in the street at Essex
Junction during the early hours of Thurs
day morning and of which they had taken
the number. Communications with Sher-
if Kelley disclosed the fact that the three
men mentioned hal Used the car, having
made several s1spicious night trips Of late
and were being watched.
Sheriff Todd and Deputy Reeves i'm
mediately came to Morrisville. They
found Fox first, but he refused to talk.
Sheriff Todd then located Blake in his
room and when confronted with the fact
that his rubber heele1 shoes, tailed exact |
ly with the marks left under the store
window and other evidence, the young
man confessed. He said that he and Fox
went inside the store at Jericho, while
Crowel kept wat,h outside He also ad |
mtted the attempted break at Essex /
Junction. The party left MorrisviIle

Later Fox confessed also and told where
the stolen things were hidden. Some of
them were found il the sheds at the La. +

THROUGH A WOMAN'S EYES
Mentioning the Money
by JEAN NEWTON

They really couldn't afford the price
of the tickets. but the others didn, I
say anything about it, and they didn
want to be the ones to mention the
moncy--so they went along.
Which reminds me of the story OF
the old Scotchman who, on hearing the
minister refer TO money ms the root Of
all evil" said "Ay. but it's grand

when ye gang an crrand -
After all. IL is the "filthy lucrc that
we live by. that most Of us work for
and that none of us can do without.
In proportion as We have it we have
the comforts and many Of the pleasures
Of life. And though ones position in
life may not be dependent on money.
som" money is necessary TO uphold any
position.
Then. too. money carries with an
obligation and responsibility. With
out the labor Of other people who
produce what our money buys il would
be absolutely valuelcss to us. In re-
turn we owe it to the community to put
what we have to the best uses.
SO. why all the homming and having
and hedging. why the taboo on the sub
icct, why the embarrassment" about
mentioning the money?
the monetary element is best left out
of the conversation. Such. for exam
pie. as reference before guests to the
cost of what they are eating. asking
people how much they earn or spend,

WHITE ROBIN ARRIVES

Residents of Spencerport, N. Y,
have a new scensation. A white robin
is sojourning among them and many
residents and non-residents are in
terested in the phenomenon. The
robin has made it's home in one of
the orchards just outside the village.
1t arrived with the other robins and
lives among them ON terms that
could not be more intimate if all rob-
ms were color blind. \ 1t has not
been noticed whether the bird has a
mate, but those who are watching the
unusual visitor feel they will have no
difficulty in deciding the matter as
The season advances. Those who have
seen it say it is perfectly white all
over, with the exception of few
elack streaks running from the head
toward the wings Its breast is rs
white as it's back, which is no winter
than its wings or its tail.
