The Beginnings Of Crime . We've-‘always. believed that this isa community of fine, honest, and responsible people. Recent cvents indicate. that not all the people within: Castlegar’s boundaries are fine, honest oF responsible We are referring to a rash of petty thefts’ recén| iy thailved in here> We know of four of them. Perhaps there are more, Two of the four were during when a number ‘of valuable items were stolen from’ a parked car by a person or persons unknown and-a goodly quantity of gasoline was stolen from another car parked in'its garage. The other two were attempted thefts in broad from by persons. well known to the management,” Such events are an almost daily occurence in larger centres. In our. village, however, where every resident knows practically every other resident at least by name their occurence gives cause for concern., In such events we see the beginnings of. crime. Residents now cannot be sure their private property is safe if it unlocked or un- guarded.’ We wonder if might not be tc the advantage of us all to have in their character and upbringing, They rest secure in the knowledge their indentites are a secret, known to one or two people, - We wonder . it might not be to the advantage of us all to have the ‘culprits exposed, so all may, know’ whom to be careful of in their dealings, * HAVE YOU ALWAYS WANTED TO PLAY THE ACCORDION?
