to the Aberdeen Library to get
books during the summer months.
As there is such a demand for ju
venile books and the books now on

children’s books would donate them
to the library at this time. As read
ing is so educational, and a worth

“Five gallons for $1.00" appears
on signs here and there along the
highways, but if these dealers think
they are offering their customers a
bargain, they should know about
Robert Burka, white youth of Pine
hurst.
Burke^ Lloyd Monroe, Judson Cole,
Bascom Cole and Jasper Latham
were in Recorder’s Court Monday,
charged with the larceny of a quan-
l;lty of gasoline from the Pinehurst
Dairy, the value of which was less
than $20.
According to the testimony offered,
Burke was the one who got the gas
oline and others of the group bought
from him at real bargain prices. One
admitted paying a quarter for five
gallons; another had obtained 7 much
larger quantity for which he had
paid 50 cents. However, it had not
occurred to them that the gas was
stolen. Burke being under 16 years
of age, his case was refei’red to the
juvenile court. The other defendants
paid the costs and their fiO-day road
sentence was suspended upon further
condition that they not violate any
law during the next two years ami
that they be under the supervision of
the probation officer for this dis
trict.
