MAIN ST. 372-3303 Glenn E. McGinnis Editor, The Journal; I would like to say thanks to the low down person or persons who took the flowers from my Grandson’s grave the 30th or 31st. of May. It seems a shame that a per son can’t even send flowers to a loved one without them being stolen. It is bad enough to steal from the living but to steal from the dead shows how low down and worthless they are. I certainly hope the person or persons who do things like this will be caught and punished severely. —(Mrs.) Dorothy Johnson Twin Falls, Idaho. 11:30 p.m. ST.
