well it seems somebody forgot to tell the
press there was one. We'll try ta.,get them

It must be very disheartening for those
civic minded persons in our midst who try
to spruce up the town and then see their
time and money go down the drain. Such
has been the case in the past several weeks
as vandals have broken off several newly
planted trees at the main corners. Those
responsible must have been hiding when
they handed out brains.
