THIEVES BUSY AGAIN
When Mrs. J.N. Nims returned home Saturday from a very pleasant month's visit with relatives in Kansas, she found that someone had entered her home and carried away many valuable articles, including her Victrola and records, silverware, hand painted dishes, cut glass punch bowl and twelve glasses, woolen blankets, cotton blankets, and a pair of pillows. the garage adjoins the house and the thieves had gained entrance by prying the lock from the garage door and got into the house through the basement. The thieves seemed to take plenty of time, for after removing the blankets from the beds, the spreads had been replaced and everything was in order.
