The treasury of the sisterhood has been looted and the em bezzler Is still at large. Mary Manly, who lives In the rear of 460 Piedmont avenue, Is the trusted treasurer of the sisters, for years Sis ter Manly has been the watchdog of the treasury which at the last auditing contained 330 in coin of the realm, two beer checks and a suspender button. The funds were kept In Sister Manly’s own botldolr. The treasurer was absent Monday afternoon when a strange negro ap proached the house. To an inqusltlve neighbor he explained that he was a relative of Sister Manly and was going In to take a nap. Instead he took the treasury, suspender button and all. That Is why the Sisters of Zion will have no celebration at their anniver sary next week. VIDALIA INSTITUTE OPENS FALL SESSION. 8peclnl to The Georgian.
