DOG LAW DISCUSSED
Marshal Carter Reinstated at Special
Meeting of Council and Need of
New Ordinance Admitted

The city council held a special meet
ing last night to investigate the
charges preferred against City Marshal
Carter by Mayor Robertson and the
suspension Of the marshal by the
mayor. There were present, Chairman
Jones and Councilmen Helvenston, Ed
wards, Carroll, Tydings and Taylor
Mayor Robertson. Marshal Carter and
City Attorney c. l. Sistrunk were also
present.
The clerk read the call for the spe
cial meeting and the charge of the
mayor
The mayor was asked TO make
statement, which he did. setting forth
that Mr.. Carter had refused TO obey
his instructions to kill dogs that were
running at large on the streets. and
giving for reason that he. the marshal
had been told that he would be held
personally responsible for killing val
liable dogs and that he had been given
legal opinion by the city attorney
| that there was no city ordinance JUS
| tifying such an act. The mayor then
asked the marshal if he refused to
obey his instructions. Yes said the
| marshal: Il do
| Then you are suspended" the mayor
| told him.
| The above is the same statement
| that Marshal Carter gave the council
| in the investigation. and the city at
| torney stated that he had given the
legal opinion to Mr.. Carter and per-
sonal1y had told him that he would
hold him responsible for the killing Of
! any valuable dog that belonged to him
but that he had not officially advised
the marshal to cease killing dogs.
\ general discussion took place, and
as ii was made plain that the ordinance
covering the dog question is defective
and that the marshal had good reason
for doing as he did: also that the
mayor thought he was right in the
stand he took.
Mayor Robertson then arose and
said that under the circumstances he
would withdraw the charges against
the marshal.
Mr. Carroll then moved that Mr. Car
ter be reinstated, Mr.. Helvenston sec
onded the motion and it was unan
imously carried:
Before the meeting was called tt
! order. lengthy discussion took place
on the need of a new dog ordinance
and the difficulties of handling tn,
: situation. and it was decided to draft
new ordinance that would cover thu
matter.

SMALL ACCOUNTS

There are many persons in this coun-
ty who feel, possibly. that their bust
ness does not warrant the keeping Of
bank account, but who would. in
reality, be greatly benefited thereby.
This is mistaken idea. bank ac-
count is valuable to every person who
transacts business.
You are enabled to keep your mon
ey where it is safe yet it is available
in part or whole at any time.
You can pay all bills by check. This
gives you a receipt for every dollar
paid, for all checks are returned to
you after having been paid by your
bank.
The fact that you possess a bank
account gives you a better standing
among business men and enables you
to establish a credit with your bank
when you have need of it,
We welcome small accounts at this
bank.
