The most serious one occurred on March 16th. We have been raising money, for the poor unfortunate children in Guatemala.We had already deposited $170.00 in the bank for safe keeping. More money was taken that night to the bank, Unfortunately there had been some• left in the classrooms which was stolen. This money was not the school's money, it was money donated from children's allowances to help other hungry, homeless and helpless children. We are really sorry to think that someone in this, community would take money put aside for a special cause like this, and hope whoever did this would feel ashamed of Correspondent Mrs. L.
