Dear Reader,

This is our 4th iesue' narkLng tbat the POIIOOITITIIIES has nov been in exietence for alnost a year,durlng vhich tlne ve feel that re beve estabUshed our-selves and hopefully are contrltnrtlng naterially tothe ha.rnony of the village. IIor to assess this lsHifflcrrlt brt re have recelved very fen crltlclsms ofour prblication and n4ny comndatlong so that webelleve ?e are useful.

A strong interest in Iocal Ilistory seems to beone factor uhich our pages have discovered, and youtlII se€ fron the lntroductory pa,rt ol the sectionr.rnddr thle headlnS iuside, that ue feel that there Esybe a local need to talce this lnterest a stage furtherby forninS: a local goup or society. If tbis Ls oneof yotrr lnterests, do let us l@o; go that re can noveforrard aad perhaps get on reoord sone of the detalleof our recent past beforc these are lost for all tlne.

Edltorlal Cmlttee.
