Where Do We Stand?

Bretton Woods Yata and San Francisco
Where do stand?
Two despots are down and only one more to go
Where do stand?
From Crispus Attacks to the Fox Hole line
That bled from Bataan across the Rhne'
We held in the skies the old ensign
Now, where do we stand? ,
Our egons are many and they're flung around the gooe
Where do stand?
We've sweated out rivers for crust and robe
Where do stand?
We in from battle through the tropics and the snow
To hear John Rankin and his buddy Bilbo;
Friction Woods Yalta and San Francisco
Where do stand?

Get a farm job-spare time, week-ends, Sundays,

Bandit Covered Face.
During the entire ride. the ban
dit left handkerchief over his face
He kept hunched over the wheel
of the car and seemed very nervous.
He seemed to be about feet 10
inches tall, about IS years old and
was wearing brown hat, a light
colored overcoat and gloves"
Mr.. Barbor, who had been slugged
in robbery of his bank years ago,
said that when the bandit knocked
he opeend the bank door thinking
it was the cashier Of the Lee The
ater next door.
when I opened the door," he
said, this man stuck a gun in my
face and said: Hold 'em up.
Il had strength enough to grab
the gun and push it up. I was
trying to grab the gun away and
hold this boy and the door, all at
the same time.
All the while I was hollering for
help, and some of the folks in the
Building and Loan Office ran out
and the man ran off as I slammed
the door. He didn't get anything"
Girl Calls Father.
Mr.. Barbor's fingers were cut in
the scramble for the gun, but he
was otherwise uninjured.
Mr.. Anderson said he and Police
man Cullins ran out of the Build
ing and Loan office when they
heard Mr.. Barbor's cries. He said
when they reached the street the
bandit had grabbed the Wadling-
ton girl and was backing toward the
alley.
When he went into the alley,
other witnesses said, Policeman Col
Inns ran around the other side of
the building in an attempt to head
off the bandit.
After being put out of the bandits
car, Grace went to drugstore and
called her father, David H. Wad-
lington, who is Government chief
clerk.
when Grace called me-" Mr.
Wadlington said, she told me she
had been kidnapped. 1 couldn t
believe her and told her to stop her
kidding.
Prints Found by FBI.
Then I realized she was hysteri-
cal, and about that time the drug
gist picked up the phone and told
me Grace was nervous but was un.
injured. He said he would take
care of her until could get there. y
The county detective bureau
said the abandoned car, a sedan
had been reported stolen December

Visit Of Boys
| To Old Home
| Brinqs Firemen

Smoke pouring from the windows
of house at 325 Ninth street Sc
brought fire engines and police cars
screaming to the scene last night
The house was unfurnished. A fire
in the furnace, which had been dis
connected from the chimney, was
quickly put out without damage.
Police and firemen were puzzled
until two boys arrived on the run
According to police, they were the
Kennedy boys, 11-year -old Earl and
13-year-oid Milton. With then
mother and father, w. C. Kennedy
watchman, they had moved from
the house to Indian Head, Md, last
week
Yesterday, without parental per-
mission, they hitch-hiked back to
town and decided to stay overnight
| in the empty house. After building
a fire in the furnace, they visited
friends. When they heard the fire
engines they ran to see the fire and
discovered it was their adopted
house.
Police left them in custody of a
neighbor who said he would take
them back to Indian Head today.
