JACKSON VISIT

Telling a clever tale Of "just NOV
ing to Jackson" a slick stranger last
week victimized two Jackson business
firms to the tune of about $3.50 worth
of merchandise and then hastily left
town, making his getaway just as
his victims began wondering about
him.
The man was about six feet tall,
light complexioned and wore a brown
suit of clothes. His wife" appar-
emily was fictitious, no woman hav-
IL, been seen at the rooms during
the day.
At one store he made small pur-
chase paying for it in cash. He de-
clared that he had just moved here
from Missouri and that he was going
to make his home here while travel
ing for Wright and Diston Saw Com
pany. He tried on different suits of
clothing and asked to take them to
his room so that his wife might see
them, but was told he had better
bring his wife to the, store. He did
take a suit-coat with him, but later.
returned it.
At another store he selected two
9x12 Wilton rugs, which were deliv-
cred to his rooms. After he came
back and selected two smaller rugs
which he carried to his rooms him
self.
After his disappearance, it was
learned that similar stunt had been
pulled off some time ago and had
made his getaway with a radio set.
Although efforts have been made
to locate the slicker, they have so far
proved fruitless as he got away with
out leaving any hints which might
serve to identify him.-Jackson Re-

appointed on the staff of the U. S. v.
B., with the name of Mr.. Zumwinkle

Your Bit Requested for the Disabled
Veteran

The veterans, disabled in service
will ever be held in high esteem in
patriotic communities. Thinking peo-
pie will always realize that right or
wrong they fought for us and the ma
ton in which we live. They bear the
disabilities and we enjoy the pros
perity and peace their sacrifices af-
ford.
1t is a pleasure therefore, to do
any kindnesses which enable them,
though handicapped to earn a live
lihood for themselves. The call is
issued for clean rags for them to use
in rugs, cotton rags torn IN 2-inch
strips and sewn in balls, wool rags
uncut, and silk knit rags, hosiery,
underwear and the like, also uncut.
Please toss your parcel, large or
small into the Veterans Box placed in
Gallea's Bakery.
Our tin foil of all kinds, tobacco,
tea, and candy wrappers, tooth paste
tubes and the like, mean nothing to
us-but if tossed in the community
boxes placed throughout our state,
means hundreds of dollars to support
work rooms and give aid to these
men. Toss your bits of tin foil in
the box in Gallea's Bakery. Co-opera-
ton of the Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts
and Camp Fire Girls and the resi-
dents of our city is requested. Red
wood Falls can easily do it's bit in this
work and rank favorably with other
towns of it's size in the state. -
