OLYM-PIA, May S.—Tempering jus
tice with an object lesson, state high
way patrolmen forced Edmonds auto
mobile thieves to completely restore
an automobile which they had strip
ped, put it in perfect mechanical
condition and return it to its owner,
according to a report filed with Oren
Deidy, head of the state patrol, here
yesterday.
The stolen machine was discov
ered in practically a worthless con
dition, as wheels, top and other parts
had been removed. After consider
able sleuthing, the missing parts
were discovered in hte possession of
two men and seven boys living near
Edmonds.
“After making a complete investi
gation we concluded that the ends
of justice would be served not by
arresting those men and convicting
them of stealing parts, but by put
ting them to the humiliation of hav
ing to re-assemble the car and put it
in first class running order and re
turning it to the owner,” Patrolman
Merton W. Walter reported.
Man’s inhumanity to man makes
business brisk for manufacturers of
locking devices.

HERRIN IS VOTING
BITTER CAMPAIGN WAGED BE
TWEEN KLAN-OPPONENTS
HERRIN, 111., May 8—With three
recent bombings to mar more than
two months of peace in Herrin, the
center of Willaimson county’s fac
tional strife, hope and apprehension
were paramount while citizens cast
their ballots today in the hottest
city election in years.
The contest was between the con
servative party, sponsored by the
Ku Klux Klan and the citizens’ par
ty, supported by the anti-klan fac
tion.
Chief interest was in the race for
mayor in which Thomas Welly wras
the conservative candidate, and
Marshall D. McCormack the citizens’
nominee.
If the wind were tempered to
shorn lambs, they’d never grow up
into tough old rams.

If you were the only person in town that traded with
mail order concerns—it would hurt some—but it wouldn't paralyze the
prosperity of the community.
The greatest injury would be in the influence your out
of-town-trading exerted over others. Other people might follow in your
foot-steps of foreign trading and that following would prove detrimental to
home business development and betterment of public welfare.
Set a good example. Be a home buyer.^/Take pride in
your community. Feel that money spent here at home is playing an
important part in building up the town. Know that it buys the goods
you want and goes towards some public good. That it helps increase the
efficiency of schools—puts down better street crossings—erects better
libraries—brightens the town’s lights—makes the parks more attractive—pays
for better police protection, etc.
!
Instead of fostering the mail order habit—fight it openly.
Teach the truth of home trading. Preach home patronage. Show mail
order buyers the error of their ways—and go out of yourway Jondo it
Local merchants handle the' highestJ grade**merchan
dise. They carry advertised brands. They sell at a proper
price—makes of goods that bear the stamp of honest manufacturers.
They deal open-handedly. They don’t cover up questionable quality
with private labels. They offer you the latest and most dependable
lines—in all lines of merchandise. Their stores are conveniently at hand. You
can reach them in a few short seconds—over the phone—or step right into their
places of business—give or leave your order—and have the goods delivered
straight to your home—all in a few minutes time.
They willingly accommodate you. They take particular
pains to give you just what you want right when you want it. You
don’t have to buy in big quantities to save freight or express charges. You can
spend less at a time—and save considerable sums in cash, to say nothing of the
great saving of time and trouble.
Advocate' thpse^advantages. Do mail order traders a
good turn by turning them away from away-from-home buying—liven
up local business, and by so doing speed the town along the road of progress.
Spend your money where it will in' turn be spent for
local improvements instead of sending it away to fatten business and
better conditions of communities. Support the community that supports you:
