Umtnarifa , The Editor some resources to counteract the loss, but a thief who steals from very young children. The thief takes big wheel type tricycles from three and four year-olds. There were four such tricycles taken August 25 - 26. This may not seem all that big deal to we adults who have grown to expect thefts of televisions, bicycles and other easy to take items. But what kind of a person steals from little kids? It would take an extremely cruel or vindictive person to hurt a child that way. Parents please protect your children by locking their toys up at night. I would also ask anyone who sees one of the tricycles or parts of such to contact the city police or the district attorney's office with the information. Sincerely, Annetta L.-Spieer Correction The last paragraph of a letter to the editor from Irene Nolan, Pendleton, appearing in last week's Gazette-Times, was incorrectly published. The letter was entitled "Wake Up". The paragraph should have read: "I have a few other ideas mat I may send in later. These teo dollars wi'l help to fill your coffers and also give people work and more people will stay in Heppner if they have jobs." The Gazette-Times regrets the error.
