Dear SIR
/ beg leave to publicly place an
emphatic protest against the unwar-
rantaible and stupid cruelty shown
by someone in town, who, through
ignorance of extreme youth, ,Eor lack
of Intelligence, if arrived at the age
of discretion-has found time lying
so heavily on his hands through lack
of occupation, that he should resort
to the questionable perpetration of
the so-caled practical joke of tying
a can to the tail of a perfectly in
offensive stray dog, which, for some
days past has been roaming about
the town.
For the second time in so many
days, ] have had the unpleasant task
of cutting away the cord attached to
the unfortunate animak
af the man or boy, guilty of this
unproftable and senseless action
will call on me, declare myself will
ing to advice him, in so many simple
words, as will penetrate his apparent
density, better method Of employ
ing his spare time.
Sincerely yours,
A. MANGGETTE (AlHDYA

TOWN WATER Low

The Commissioners of Rising Sun in
an advertisement elsewhere in thi S
issue. call the attention of our citizens to
the serious condition of the water sup.
ply, the wells from which the supply is
pumped being low. due to the long
period of dry weather.
Citizens of the town have been urged
to use the water sparingly, but in spite
of these requests and warnings. there is
still a persistent. and in many cases..
useless waste by sprinkling of streets in
front of residences. watering of lawns,
washing Of autos. ETC.. etc.
Every user of the town water should
do his part at this time in helping to
conserve the supply by using it as SPAR
ingly as possible. and not in the lavish
manner which has been the case with
so many.
