MR. MONEY ARRESTED

While eating lunch yesterday, the police arrested Mr. Money, the famous bankrobber.
Officer Catcher was eating a pizza just opposite the bank when Mr. Money passed by in his new 
car, purchased with the stolen money. Catcher reports: "I didn't know it was him. He was
riding very fast and I moved to get out of his way. But his hand hit my pizza, and cheese
went all over my shirt. I was very angry, so I decided to chase him. I caught him when he
turned the corner of the intersection of Police Street and Arrest Street.
Men were repairing Arrest Street, so it was closed and there was a fence across it. Mr. Money
tried to jump over the fence, but it was too high. I grabbed him before he could run away."
Mr. Money is famous for stealing money from all the banks in England.
His trial will begin next Saturday, November 18th at Money Robber Curt House.

The Amazon River runs through the rain forest. Indians live deep in this forest.
"If men continue to destroy the forest, many Indians will have to leave their homes," says
Tree.
The animals of the forest are also in danger.
"Many birds and insects will lose their homes if we destroy the forest," explains Dr.
Onestone, a scientist studying this area.
The director says: "If you care about the forest, you can come tomorrow and learn more about
what you can do to help save them."
