see a specialist regarding the health
of Mrs. Stock, and one who had ren
dered good service to both Messrs.
Stock and - Wilkin, returned early
last week and were pleased with the
improvement of Mrs. Stock's health
following the treatment. Paul was
the driver and as he is a very care
ful one and at the same time makes
many miles in a day, they had ex
cellent transportation facilities. They
found some very dry country on their
trip.
Suffers Loss of Tires
On last Tuesday night, while the
auto of I. G. Hornbeck w-as stored in
his garage and everything as he had
thought was secure, some one enter
ed the garage and despoiled his tires
by cutting with a knife or other in
strument the two rear tires and the
spare on the car, and leaving the
Idoor open when they departed.
With the matter of doing an in
jury to him and receiving no benefit
to themselves, it looks like the act
was one of pure devlishness and no
call for the action. Deputy Sheriff
Rex Young was over for a time the
next .day, making investigations of
the act.
