 The residents of East Main street are much annoyed by a homeless, short haired, yellow dog that has been hanging around for several days. The people do not object to the dog because he Is yell low, neither do they blame him for hay ing short hair, because he was probably born that way. The dog Is criticised for his unseemly conduct in barking loudly like hound when there Is nothing to bark at. He has no visible means of support and apparently no ambition, ex- cept to lead the East Main street dogs in- to mischief. His example is very bad, and residents of the street will be glad to return him to his owner if one can be found for him.
