MEANEST Thief At WORK
At JAMESBURG IS REPORT

JAMESBURG, Dec. ia worthy
charity will suffer TO the extent of
SIS by the visit to the Sunday
school rooms of the JamesburS
Presbyterian church some time be-
tween Sunday and yesterday. when
a report was made to borough Mar
shall Fillhower. An investigation
proved that some tall person was
the one who broke into the room
and was not the work of a juvenile
scholar. Entrance was forced by
forcing the window with a jimmy
after breaking the pane of glass
at the top. Being unable to reach
the catch the Jimmy was used.
The sewing room was ansacke
and the cupboard emptied of can
ned fruit, but only one can was
eaten.
The grammar school was also
broken into the same evening and a
fountain pen, the property of Miss
Tillie Dawson. a teacher, stolen.
The report that the birthday
fund" had been stolen at this time
of the season has aroused the chill
dren OF the Sunday school to a self
appointed committee to try and
learn the identity of the thief. The
fund is gained by the scholars of
the Sunday school contributing a
penny for each year on their BIRTH
day and at Christmas time the fund
is contributed to the New Jersey
Children's Home, at Trenton. but
if the guilty person is not appre-
hended the chances for the annual
donation will be slim.
