Robberies committed In Nazarelh and Bangor this past week tend to substantiate the prediction made re¬ peatedly by offlcials who are re¬ cognized authorities on crime, that the coming winter will bring with il an Increase in robbery, hold-ups and other crimes.
The Director of Public Safety In Philadelphia in a recent i.ssue of the City papers warned the Public aga¬ inst the habit of keeping money, jewelry and other valuables around the house. The thief and robber has an unianiiy way of spotting the homes, where money and valuables arc kept; he keeps a watrh on the house and soon learns when to make his visit.
As the prefes.sional criminal is nriven out of the larger cities, he will ply his trade in the smaller towns and usually reaps a good har¬ vest.
It is physically impossible for thc local police to guard all the homes against these marauders, and the only safe-guard against these crim¬ inals Is to deposit your money in the Bank, and your valuables in a safe-depqs'*^ *'Mfti -• .^ '
