JODO, THE JOBBER, m SORELY JOBBED It is especially funny when a Job ber gets Jobbed and this is what hap pened at 1 a. m. this morning, a time when few realized that April Fool's day had arrived. The victim of. the plot was George "Jodo" Strand, as sistant sheriff, who sleeps close to the telephone at the court house so as to be in readiness in the event the peace and quietude of Umatilla county " should be disturbed during the hours of the night. So well known is Strand that it is needless to say he himself Is a Jobber of the first degree. There are many who have fallen victims to his pranks and they have long been laying for him. This morning they took him in and took him strong. Ting-a-ling, tlng-a-ling, tlng-a-ling, went the "phone in the sheriffs of fice early this morning and it roused the sleeping deputy from his slum bers. With visions of another Jewelry store robbery in his mind Strand rushed to the 'phne and took down the receiver. "Please come down quick," said a seemingly frightened feminine voice, "someone is trying to rob Dr. Hender son's house ad the doctor is away." Like a fire horse getting into har ness when the- fire bell rings Strand jumped into his clothes and a mo ment later, duly armed, he was dash in down Alta street. Never in his high school days, when he played quarter back for P. H. S. and used to run with the ball for touchdowns did Jodo split the wind so briskly. Arriving at the Henderson home, at the corner of Alta and Johnson streets the speeding deputy, noted with surprise that all seemed peace ful and still. Like a careful sleuth he looked about him and he noticed two figures half a block away. He bore down upon them. They were two old ladies and they showed fear as he drew near, "Dont be afraid Indies," said the deputy and he then returned to the corner. He then look' ed through the Henderson barn and woodshed but could find "no burglar. Proceeding to the front door Strand rang the bell. A moment later Dr. Henderson, sleepy eyed, appeared in response to the ring. "Where's the burglar," inquired the deputy. But the doctor had seen no burglar and could throw no light upon the subject. The joke became apparent. "Mackschauffes the fun," said Strand as he turned his steps back towards the court house and his bed No sooner had he entered the sher iffs office again than the 'phone rang once more and this time a sweet voice said: "You are a good sprinter.
