Notice to Dog Owners

There seems to be a false impress
sion among some owners of dogs in
Pocomoke that because 1924 licenses
were not issued until last September
it is not necessary for them to renew
their license until next September.
This impression, however, is erron-
eous. While there was delay last
year in enforcing this law, yet all
licenses were issued for fiscal year
ending April 80, 1925.
Because of this misunderstanding,
the city officials will extend the time
of procuring new tags until June I,
1925. On and after that date all dogs
found within the corporate limits Of
Pocomoke City that are not licensed
for 1925 will be killed, so don't fail
to get your tags before June 1st.
