A serles of uiipleasant and disturbing events prompts me to write this letter with 'the - idea that others in the com- minity should know of this. These events have been what might be called a barrage of break ins and burglaries total of seven in six months from August 1969. Some have been, we feel, the work of young people. Forced doors, small articles stolen or broken and food stolen or scattered. Two have been vicious burglaries. As a result our house in Reach . Township, built not quite two years ago, has taken a beating. Window glass ha been broken and one window completely demolished, sash and glass. Three front and back doors have had to be replaced because they were battered in and locks destroy- ed. The latest result is the partial destruction of a:door frame and locks, accompan- ied by a real mess of broken dishes, glassware, eggs, sugar and pop. The worst of all was: EMPLO and some reforesting begun. wie al LE C20 Fld EAR A : a tte the theft of all plumbing pipe - cut with an axe - damaging beams, base- ment insulation, 'wiring and breaking fixtures; together with theft of clothing, canned good, kitchen utensils, tools lamps, radio, carpet and bed- ding, in fact nearly a clean- out, Several years ago I purchased the parcel of land on which my house is located with the objective of making it's improvement a useful and interesting retirement project. With some good advice and help' the pasture was rebuilt into a reasonably good hay producer, clean up's were started in the wood lot copper Rebuilding and replacing old fences was started. About two years ago it became evident that our work would be somewhat easier and more enjoyable if we could live on the place at least part time. Consequently the building of a small frame bouse was undertaken with a local builder.

Mr. Cliff Croll and Miss Marty Croll of Toronto spent the week-end at their cottage Pine Point. Mrs. L.

With the exception of a period last winter we have occupied the place two to four days each week. While I realize that breakins and thefts occur in most localities it is most discouraging to attempt to cope with a whole series one after another. It leaves us frightened and uncertain of the future. If our views about young people being involved are cor- rect, then it is an unfotrunate situation since, unless they realize their error, deeper trouble lies in store. Others are more adept and better equipped to discuss the prob- lems of youth, but . one characteristic seems worth noting. Young people who learn to cope with their problems in the confidence and respect of the family appe: to have a great advantage in| life and should consider them- selves fortunate . . Sincerely, R. W.
