Problem in Turpitude A. M. Arant is struggling with a problem in ' Advanced Turpitude and has found it a puzzler, ' so we pass it on to our readers. At the closing hour for business ne ap peared at the warehouse and pur nwd one sack of bran. , Now in order to state the problem compre hensively it is necessary to explain that at present Mr. A. is suffering with a lame back. He fell from the family cherry tree the other day without first having provided a cushion to light upon. Because of the resulting lameness he was not able to shoul der the sack of bran and carry it home and as the warehouse was about to be closed the sack was placed out side until his son could be sent after it. Here an interval of time elapsed; perhaps an hour, When the boy sought the sack it had disappeared. Here is the prob lem: Did the sack develop legs and walk off : or did some wandering cow come along and develop a hun- eer sufficient to eat sack and all; or did some citizen taking an after noon nap, arise in his sleep and car ry off the sack, place it in his barn and then awakening, wonder where the feed came from? Mr. Arant is also afraid he will lie awake nights wondering if it was a dishonest person who deliberately took the sack of bran. If he could feel sure that it was a man of high charac ter, strictly moral, honest and of excellent standing in the commun ity he would feel much relieved and misrht even be willing tJ leave another sack around handy in so good a cause. Mr. wid Mrs. L.! D. Mulkey of McMinnville were visitors tsunday with Mrs. Monroe Mulkey. They spent the winter in Santa Barbara, Cal., and were on their way home by automobile.
