BLOODHOUN0S USED
To TRACE HOODLUMS'
Washington School Broken Open and
Interior Torn BlOOdhounds
Unable to Follow Trail of Vandals.

During the past few months on some
three or four occasions the Washing
ton Consolidated School building has
been entered between Saturday after
noon and Monday morning. On sew
eral of these occasions books have
been stolen and the rest room fur
niture has been considerably torn up.
Monday morning when the teachers
reached the school they found a large
glass broken from the front door and
going into the rest room on the second
floor, they found the contents badly
torn about the room. The matter was
reported to Superintendent Turnipseed
who called upon Sheriff Devore and
called for the Manchester bloodhounds.
The hounds were on tho job within a
short time and carried the scent to
the top of the steps but as the dogs
had never before worked inside a
building, they would not descend the
stairs unless they were pulled.
The officials are determined to
break up this practice or bring the cul-
prits to justice

RED CROSS DRIVE
IN CITY IS PROVING
VERY SUCCESSFUL
In First Week of Roll Call More Than
Twice as Much is Realized Than
Was Last Year-Driye Closes
Thanksgiving.

Reports from the workers In the city
Of Maysville on the American Red
Cross Roll Call indicate that tho cam
paign this year will be a decided sue
cess. If the county precincts do as
well as the city wards have thus far
done, and there is no doubt of this, the
campaign will net the great organiza-
ton more than twice as much cash as
1t did in 1921.
City precinct workers, during the
first week, collected more than two
and half times as much money as
was collected during the entire cam
paign in the city last year and there
is left many days in which to pick up
the edges OF the campaign.
A grand close will be brought to the
campaign in Mason county on Thanks
giving day and in many of the county
precincts, the workers are expecting to
devote their entire attention to a con-
centration on this one day. There will
be big Thanksgiving dinners served
and entertainments held and the pro-
ceeds OF these special efforts will be
contributed to the Red Cross.
The campaign is by no means closed
and there is yet time for those who
have not been seen to make a contri-
button. Any OF the directors or pre-
cinct workers will be glad to enroll
you as q member OF the organization at
any time.
