SALINA GIRLS ON A TOUR
Are Located at Topeka After Stop
ing t0ur in Abilene q Night

INK 0Vcr iii AOluCtic u lNl&hL
Two Salina girls, aged about Il,
Vivian Ninsant and Alice Peden,
the latter daughter of Mr.. and Mrs
Charles Peden, skipped that town
Thursday evening, in rented car
which they abandoned here. Salina
was greatly stirred up over their dis
appearance Friday. They have been
located at Topeka and they will
probably be brought home tonight
by Mrs. Peden.
The girls were recognized by Bob
Rpiman. an acquaintance, about .
o'clock Thursday night. They stay
ed at the National hotel and the next
morning Mrs. Lee Reiman, his moth
er, well acquainted with the Pedens,
was called asking for information.
The girls were taken to the Reiman
home for breakfast and the pedens
notified. The girls refused to GO
home but the Reiman family tried
to keep them until the Salina par
ents arrived But Mr.. Peslen did
not get here until p. m. BY that
time the girls had skipped. They
went down the Golden Belt and
caught rides, evidently getting long
distance trip, for they had little
money. This morning the Peden girl
called from Topeka by phone, ask
ing that their clothes left at the
tReiman home be sent to them. They
we're sent and on the same train
went Mrs Peden who came here
this morning and Bob Reiman. When
tn girls call for the package they
will find something else again and
he taken home.
Salina papers report that the
Petlen girl with her chum last week
drove to Wichita in a rented car.
Thursday merhing she returned but
eft again, only to sneak back in the
afternoon, take her clothes and meet
he waiting automobile. in which
aeighbors saw negro driver. Mr..
and Mrs. Peden, who We're at their
store on East Iron, were told i'm
media tely, and police were asked to
get OBJ the trail~of the car which was
lcated here.
The .Reiman family deserves much
credit For its care for THE girls and
it's effort to return them to their
families. Had there been quick Ac-
ton at the Salina end the girls
would have been home safely Friday

HERE'S THE POOREST SPORT
he Even Shot Tame Ducks on Gun
Clubes Private Pond

The low-downest and meanest
sport yet discovered in this section
has left his track at the gun clubs
private lake in the HOyt pasture
north Of town. The ten members
have stocked the lake with fish and
also had eight mallard ducks and
two tame geese dOmiciled there.
They furnished a fine decoy for wild
fowl and many good bag did the
hunters bring in during the autumn
Early Friday morning two men.
stopped at the lake, shot the whole
flock Of ducks and geese, took them
in a MOTOR car and drove east. A
neighbor saw them as they enetred
their car but was too late to identify
them. They left the fish and the
water, for which the club members
are duly thankful. But woe unto the
cheap sports If they are caught.

Tennessee is the ouly serious con

tiuctIon of being the leading straw =
berry producing state IN the union.
According to official statistic, Ar
kausas is second IN acreage and pro.
duCtion and Tennessee is first.
3 White county Arkansas Is possibly
exceeded by only two other counties
m the Union IN the value Of It's
strawberry crop aud there is even
doubt about Humboldt, Tenn, and
Hammond, La, being ahead Of it..
The strawberry crop Of 1922 is the
largest ever raised 10 Arkansas, the
carload shipments having amounted
to s,O8l which does not take into
consideration the large quantities
consumed at home of which there il
no record. Inl0l9 there were sI2
carload shipments; in 1920, s26 aud
in 1921, 1904 so that the shipments
for 1879 are more than doable the
largest amount ever shipped from
the state in preceding wear. The
