 The strange dog shot and killed by Selectman F.. P. Prior Monday noon was rahid. q report received from the state laboratories in Hart ford received by Dog Warden Philip Marino shows. AS result of this, the quarantine placed on dogs by Dr. George F. Cook, health officer, remains in force. The animal was Killed after vain attempts to bite several passersby and after such sus- p!cious actions that the state report seemed hardly necessary. The head was sent to Hartford and in the meantime a temporary quarantine was placed on dogs by Dr. Cook as a health measure.
 These restrictions will now remain In force until the state authorities can take action and clamp the lid down tightly with a permanent dog quarantine. This will stay in effect until all danger of rabies epidemic is past. It being feared at present that the dog which was killed may have bitten others. All dogs must be kept tied up or on leashes, and stray dogs should be reported 10 the dog warden.

 Boys Reap Harvest
 Small boys arc turning the an- nual cleanup week to such profit that another two days of collection may be necessary 10 cart away the trinkcts which they have salvagod from the dump. Waiting for the wagons to arrive and dump their loads of discarded rubbish, these youngsters have been carefully go- ing over this material, wondering why such fine things should be thrown away and picking up such treasures as broken alarm clocks, rusted wire and other things dear to their hearts, So assiduously have they been working that 1t has been remarked that cleanup week has resulted only in the transfer Of rubbish from one house to another.
 The teams sent out by the se- lectmen were at work today on the west side of the town, and there. as in the eastern section, so much rubbish was awaiting them that l cleanup week seemed an assured ! success.
