The Lexington young man who 
went to Singing Beach the other night 
with a young woman he had made 
the acquaintance of, must hold some 
respect for the Singing sands as a 
safe deposit for money. At any 
event, when he had said “good night” 
to the young woman and had gone 
home, he missed a small roll of bills—- 
$30 1n amount: He could hardly sleep 
during the night, and early next 
rorning he told his troubles to the 
police. As a preliminary Chief Sul- 
livan and the young man made a trip 
to the beach, to the spot where he had 
sat lenjoying the cool evening breezes 
with: the young woman, and sure 
enough—there was the roll, untouch- 
ed save by the morning sun. The 
Lexington young man will put im- 
plicit faith in Manchester banks 
henceforth—even beach banks.
