Purse Restored To Owner
Mr. Alex Campbell lost a purse con-
taining almost fifteen dollars over two
weeks ago and had decided that he
would never see it again, but evidently
he stole a- glance at The Adnance
want ad. column and read that we had
somebody's purse. Knowing that it
couldn't be a printer's he came around
to investigate and found it to be his
own. Mr. Gordon Elastic, of the 131)10 -
vale Road found it and, honesty being
his watchword since childhood, he
brought it in to our office and asked
us to find the owner now that he had
found the purse.
