ard school, -made up of girls in
the fourth grade, were invested
at a meeting last week. After
the flag ceremony the Brownies
presented a play called "The
Brownie Story."

SOMETHING FOR NOTHING
Milwaukie, Ore. U.R) A
draft board clerk, Mary Bell, re
ported an 18-year-old youth reg
istered and then handed her a $1
bilL She explained there was no
charge. "You mean I don't have
to pay?" the youth asked. "Gosh!
You sure have to pay for every
thing else."
Um Mail Tribune Want Ada
000 and $2,000,000 in negotiable
securities.
Redfield produced a list of the
serial numbers of most of th
bills but was not sure exactly
how much more the safe con
tained. He did not know which
securities were missing. because
he kept no record of which ones
were in the safe, which were in
a battered suitcase in the same
closet valued at approximately
$1,000,000 and overlooked by
the burglars, and which were m
various bank safe deposit boxes
and in another, vault la his
home.
May Neves Knew
Redfield, in a report given to
Reno police and in subsequent
interviews, still insists the figure
is closer to $2,500,000.
The exact value may not be
known until all the safe's con'
tents are recovered or if this
never completed, it may never
be ascertained,
