A window entry at Mrs. Dupuis home turned out to be a mistaken break in as items were scattered during a daylight visit. The event ended as a joke after Dupuis retrieved a mileage book and hurried to the station. Wagner track hosted a 100-man crowd watching Lisle Morehouse and Earl Lewis race for bragging rights with Lewis taking one heat and the other a near tie. Nate Hale’s fall from the grand stand caused a brief scare but no serious injury. Flora Taylor joined the M B K church at Smouse’s Lake in a full-immersion ceremony observed by Rev. Clapp. A local lender seeks a loan of 1500 to 2000 dollars on good security.
