sympathy of all the citizens of this

This adventure may ho looked
upon a light matter, but there is
a great danger of the loss of life of
these two young men. as annually
this river claims a number of lives.
The river front is not the ideal
playground for unattended child
ren. It is supposed these boys will
have received a lesson, for it 'was
only a chance they have escaped
from the hungry waters of the
Misson ri. Not alone these boys, but
all young boys can find a much
safer place to play than on the river
front.
