 There are more common foes than mad dogs and we should always try to face every com- mon enemy to our town and peo- pie just as braveiy, and in the same unit as we did when we ex- terminated that beast with rabies of poison in him.
 "United we stand, divided we fall," was spoken to harmonige and unify members of g mutual institution. Let's remember the admonition, for sake of our homes, public institutions and towns.
 It's very good thing for us to catch glimpse of "Old Nick" occasionally, or get a mad dog" betimes, cause it makes us more careful bout forgettin' to say put prayers.
