UNITED CHURCH Y.P.S. Car and Cash Disappear In Early Morning The garage of Little Brothers, local} Ford dealers, was burglarized some- time ‘early Wednesday morning and a 1932 Ford V8 car and about $50.00 in cash stolen. The car was found by city police abandoned in Toronto on Wednesday, but so far no trace of the burglars has been obtained. The intruders gained admission to the garage by breaking a rear win- dow. The safe was broken open and cash taken, papers and documents sorted over and thrown around, but apparently the thieves were only in- terested in taking cash. 'It is unusual for the firm to leave‘ this amount of cash in the safe, and it was an unfortunate coincidence that this was probably the largest sum ever left in the garage over night. Mr. Little Was in the garage after midnight, so it is certain that it was in the early morning hours the robbery took place. No one in the neighborhood reports hearing or noticing any unusual happenings dur- ing the night. I Constable Barraclough was called in the morning and investigated. City and provincial police were not- ified and 1ater in the day the car was Tenor ed +‘ound in Toronto. MASONS ENJOYED PAST MASTERS NIGHT Wednesday was Past Masters’ Night at Richmond Lodge AF. & A.

MAPLE PROPERTY SOLD The property of the late Louisa Kaake, which was up by auction last Saturday, was sold to Mr. Charles Hadlow Sr., and has since been rented to Mr. Quinton.
