answers
First coming
to my mind is these people have no
morals or respect for othersor their
property.
In closing, we live in a..highly tech-
nical society. It is not unusual to see
security systems and there are systems
which can transmit wireless signals a
great distance like.a long Janeway. So
the next time, if there is one, WATCH
OUT, because someone could be
watching.
The question is WHY? Ihave lived
in this rural community all of my life.
My wife and; our two sons ,own and
operate. Rossview Farms, a farm
which has been in our ` family since it
was bought from the Crown in 1850.

post office recently noting the lack of
names on our mail box. Really what,
is the sense because they are only
going to get smashed again in the near
future, but we did anyway. Mail per-

If asked, most of us will admit to
having committed practical jokes or
humorous adventures in our younger
days, BUT NEVER destroying other's
property. This act of violence hap-
pened again last week to our mailbox
and the neighbours. This time they
went too far. They not only ruined the
mailboxes, but destroyed our farm
