The meanest man In the world
was in Hermistoq Saturday!
His
realname remains unknown but few
will question his right to the title.
The story goes that A. J. Potts, a
Salvation Army worker from Pen
dleton, was In town on that day re
ceiving donations! tor his organiza
tion. He had parked hts car on tho
side street near Kingsley's and left
the tambourine with five dollars or
more In small change in the seat
of the car with a bag of fresh peaches
on top of the tambourine.
During the excitement prevailing
on that corner when two minor ac
cidents occurred, "the meanest man”
evidently discovered the peaches and
helped himself to one, throwing the
peelings on the ground at the side
of the car. Later his eye caught
sight of the tambourine and It was
only a matter of seconds before all
the sliver pieces had disappeared In
his pocket.
Perhaps In hopes of
finding more money, he emptied a
bill fold containing Mr. Potts’ cre
dentials and strewed the papers
about the car.
Likely the thief is quite safe from
detection. No one saw him take the
money and the loss of five dollars
isn’t sufficient to bring out 'the
finger print experts. But, if in this
day and age, a man has such a pro
saic thing as a conscience, then this
fellow’s must be troubling him
some.

Members of the Farm Bureau
Auxiliary met for an enjoyable ses
sion at the Columbia park Friday
afternoon. Some time was devoted
to the discussion of a project can
nery to be developed in the near
future. More details will likely be
worked out at a later meeting.
Afte( the regular buslnless was
disposed of, the Home Maker’s Ex
change occupied a prominent place
on the program. This is an un
usually interesting and profitable
teature of the meetings, Friday’s
session being devoted primarily to
the exchange of favorite cake re
cipes. The next subject for the
Home Maker's Exchange will be a
discussion of recipes using grapeB
and plums.
Mrs, Alpha Chrlstley gave an in
teresting account of her rectnt trip
to Canada and a program of violin
music, presented by Lots Barnard
and Edna Ott, received hearty ap
plause.
Delicious refreshments were serv
ed by the hostesses for the after
noon. The Ice tea which was served
had been brewed with Chinese tea
brought from Canada by Mrs.
Chrlstley.
The Farm Bureau Auxiliary has
a membership numbering 50 and is
an active and wide-awake organiza
tion.
The next meeting of the organiza
tion is scheduled for September 6,
the first Friday in the month and
will be held as usual at the Colum
