Some person or persons presumed
to be boys, placed a row of finishing
nails across the road near Camp Four
one day this week and autos driven
by County Commissioner Alley and
Stanley Coates each picked up nails
and received punctured tires. The
men got their machines to a garage
and put on new tires, but it took some
time to limp in. The perpetrators
of the outrage should be made an ex

too costly to the other fellow.
