CRIME 75.jpg

I don't add every single little thing that relates to crime because some of it is really minor, but something like this, especially on the first page, needs to be noticed. It's a sign of the breakdown of the family unit that took place in the camps.

Page 2: Mystifying oracle answers questions. (This is an article on the ouija board. DO NOT use these. Ouija boards, albeit popular, are actually very dangerous as far as the spiritual realm goes. The vast majority of people who use these do not really know a lot about the paranormal. Negative spirits are able to come through this way with relative ease, and can cause problems.) Letters held at post office; The Other Side column. (Sort of ironic that they have this titled column on the same page as the ouija board article.)
