WILDORADO LOOTED NUMEROLS TINES Bank tsell Has Beeo Robbed Ei_ghtTimes Amarille, Tex.,, 27 (UP)—Wildor- ado, the most plundered town in the United States, has an itching trigger tinger, The Wildorado State bank has been rohbed eight times in the last three years and the general store next door has been visited by ban- dits so frequently that its proprie- tors have lost count of the number of times they have looked down re- volyer muzzles. $ Mrs. W. E. O'Neal, wife of the Wildorado State bank's president, acts zs cashier of the institution and has been.on the ground during most of the holdupe. Mrs. O'Neal {s the woman who crossed swords with Jose Alvarado, famous Castilian gunman and state officer of Oklahoma, whom Governor Johnston recently took under his wing but who was found guilty of rebbery since then and sentenced to cight years in the penitentiary. Mrs. O'Neal identified Alvarado as the bandit who called her “sister when the Wildorado bank was rebbed last spring and who aguin warned, “be careful what you eay, sister,”” when she appeared at Alvar- ado’s requjsition = hearing in Okla- homa City. ‘The latest robbery of the bank oc- curred when two youths, armed to the teeth, entered the building. Sharp-shooting citizens of the town had gathered quickly and captured one of the bandits. Tl & da but tha}tr!” | 1t's exasperating when men don't understand—and embarrassing when they do. Women who have learned .of Midol don't have painful periods. “""Midol is not a narcotic. It acts only on the organs affected. Per- fectly safe, but swift; it brings com- plete comort in five to seven min- utes! No matter how hard a time You've always had, Midol will dispel every particle of pain. It is only common sense to use it, for it does nothing to hinder the normal, na- tural process of menstruation; but mnakes it painless, ,ents in the country who will assist Get Midol in the trim little case of aluminum, for purse or pocket; fifty cents, at any drugstore. The Old Reliable Store 5 Days More of Our Great forced to release him, however, when his partner threatened to kill O'Neal, the bank president. ‘The bandits got only $100 in cash, | all the bank dares keep on hand at one time. One of the men participating in the attempted capture of these ban- dits was the night watchman who killed one robber and wounded an- other in a recent gun battle during an attempt to rob the Wildorado Grain and Mercantile store. “How does it feel to be stuck up?” Mrs. O'Neil was asked after the last bit of banditry. “It has happened so many times | we are getting used to it she re- plied. “Once one of the bandits was/| nervous and jumpy. 1 foolishly argued with them but you know how a woman likes to talk. I real- ly was too excited to be afraid. “We're never going to keep more than $100 in the bank any more. We couldn't and stay in business. At that, we're criticized for not be-| ing able to cash large checks.” Although somewhat discouraged | by all these bandit raids, Wildorado | is still armed and ready. The town is 22 miles west of here and some day soon Amarillo expects to hear that robbers of the bank or store have heen captured or killed.
