Thieves Enter Public Library.
The Library is <ric*h in its store
house of knowledge but poor indeed ,
in that convenient commodity known
as "flltihy lucre/' and <as criminals
are not usually .book-lovers it was in
deed a surprise to the librarian when
she opened the door Monday morn
ing and found that her literary .dom
icile had been invaded by ruthless
and uninvited guests who were at
doast considerate enough not to mo
iest hor "stock ill trad?/' as the books
were untouched. They were evident
ly devotees to the almighty dollar ? |
that great object of universal devo
tion throughout our land that is
causing a wave of cnime und lawless
ness. Every drawer had been
searched and emptied and the locked
desk opened, the contents all left on
the floor. As a -reward for their risk
and labor they g?ot around $5. Ex
perience is a greag^ teacher, but she
does T\,ot teach a Tree scihool and a
lesson taught, by this incident is to
leave no money in the library here
laftcr. Truly, do we see in Holy
writ that, "the love of money is the
root of all evil."
