Farmers from all over the community came to a field near
Bonnyville to help combine 400 acres of barley for a family in
grief.

Five daughters aged 15 to 22 were left without parents
after a tragic airplane crash took their Mother, Father and
Grandmother.

Eight combines and eight trucks worked together to harvest the
crop in mere hours. With the help of friends and family the girls
are now left to care for over 4000 cattle and 6000 acres of land.

recent increase in violence on Whyte Ave., Edmonton Police have doubled
the amount of officers on the popular bar strip. The Mayor and Police
Chief came to Whyte Ave. to check out some of the problem areas. They
said that fellow officers working the avenue welcomed the added support.
