entered the stores he robbed during
the afternoon hours and remained
hidden there until next morning. Hi
specialty was stealing cash, and so
far as is known he never took any
thing else at any of the places he
visited. He usually remained in the
store all night, sleeping on the floor.
Next morning when the first clerk
came to open up he slipped out the
front door while the back entrance
was being opened.
When arrested the boy war at

place he had purchased a ticket. This
was found in his pocket when he
was arrested. He is not more than
thirteen years of age, and, officers

“VALLEY OF SILENT~
MEN” GREAT PICTURE
A picture which combines mag
nificent scenic beauty with a
thrilling story is “The Valley of
Silent Men,’’ adapted from James
Oliver Curwood’s famous novel of
the same name as a Cosmopolitan
production, and released by Para
mount.
Those familiar with the novel,
will recall that it is a story of the
Royal ♦North West Mounted [P.4>j
lice, with the Rocky Mountains for
a background. It is a picture of
iicmenapus power, Aaring as it
docs the souls of five men and a
woman who are isolated in a little
narrow valley.
For the purpose of imparting this
realism to the screen, the entire
company went to Banff, in the Ca
nadian Rockies.
The picture, which was directed
by Frank Borzage, and which fea
tures Alma Rubens at the head of
a powerful cast% is coming to the
Opera House Wednesday for two
days. It is well worth seeing.

at 2 o’clock this afternoon. At
that hour hospital authorities were
unable to give out any informa
tion concerning his condition, ex
cept that it was very grave.
Mr. Cook came to Americus sev
eral months ago from Augusta,
where his parents reside, and had
a room in the home of Mr. and
Mrs. Roy Parker on Jackson street.
He was an automobile salesman
and until Monday was employed by
the Gatewood Motor company, and
held in high esteem among all who
knew him. He was unmarried, and
Mr. Parker, who knew him well in
Augusta, was unable this afternoon
to recall the names of his parents,
though he was then engaged in an
efofrt to communicate with them.
Mr. Jones of the Jones Motor com
pany, was also unable to supply
this information.
Mr. Jones said he had, received
no information concerning the' ac
cident, except that supplied by the
Times-Recorder, but thought Mr.
Cook was engaged in effort to sell
Mr. Faust a high-pow’ered Pack-i
ard at the time the accident oc
curred. It was not unusual, he
said, for a salesman to leave the
garage in a car, going to any part
of the surrounding section with
out saying anything regarding his
destination or prospect.
The car Mr. Cook was driving,
Mr. Jones s4id, belonged to his
agency, and early this afternoon
he . had not learned the extent to
which it had been damaged. Law
rence Physioc, one of the party
in the car at the time of the acci
dent, said Mr. Cook was engaged in
an effort to sell the Packard to
Mr. Faust, and that he had just
given the wheel to Mr. Faust when
the accident occurred.
