MISCHEVIOUS CHILDREN
(To the Editor.) iSir, —I would be grateful if you would allow me space to protest at the mischievous behaviour of some of the children at the Paeroa District High School primary department. Recently I have had to replace both the front and: back mud-guards of my son’s bicycle and only the other day his front tyre was ruined by somebody cutting same with a pocket knife. My son tells me it is a common trick to tie up either of the wheels to the frame with wire so that when mounted the spokes are damaged. Surely in these days of short supply of all cycle parts the children should be taught to treat the cycles with respect and not do wilful damage.—l am, etc., IRATE PARENT Paeroa, 28:7:42.
