LOCAL SCHOOLHOUSE ROBBED MONDAY SBOO In Typewriters Stolen Monday night, at a late? hour, several unknown persons broke into the rear of the high school building and stole twelve typewriters of which total value was estimated at nearly SB4O do.lars. The miscreants entered the building through one of the windows in the rear which they broke in order to gain entrance. Finding the door to the typing room locked, they preoeeded to remove the » door from the hinges and easily entered the room. The loot consisted of five Retington, two L. C. Smith and five Royal typewriters and the thieves left two only because they could not cari-y them out without making another trip ifito the building. Although this is not the firs v theft at the; school building, a similar one occuring some time ago, the loss was only partly covered with insurance, making the •loss more serious. From the evidence, it is Believed that the same persons wtio committed the crime nearly a year ago also robbed the school tms time and it is also thought that out of town talent is respnsloie for the thefts, however, protective measures are being taken to prevent a similar occurrence and all that can be done to catch the. offenders is under operation now. z - .
