DOG P0Is0NER IS ABOUT
Valuable and Other CANNES Are
Passing Away, Suddenly-25
Reported Killed Recently.

To the Editor of The Bulletin
II YOU have space wish you
would publish the following
Within the past three years at
least rs dogs have been poisoned in
the neighborhood OF 24the street
and Park Ave. In one single day
seven were found dead within two
blocks In hardly a single case was
any of them vicious. and not one of
them had bitten person AS they
were almost all valuable animals
cannot see the motive for killing
them. Whether there is a "icnd"
doing the awful deed or not | don't
know. have lost two dogs recent
~ myself: the first one a valuable
show dog, the second Que not SO
valuable. but a good watch dog
which is the ouly protection we get
in this neighborhood as policemen
are scarce as snow in July. Why
IF" policeman happens" to come
around this neighborhood the people
run to the doors and windows like
a circus parade was passing.
In my opinion person that
would poison a poor brute that is
not molesting anyone may be looked
ON as one who would do more dan
gerous criminal deeds. and If there
Is place better than another be-
low. A DOG poisoner will surely
go there" II. +. G..

to give an approach to the yard, 1t Is
declared at the Navy Department that it
