NOTICE TO OWNERS OF Dogs
AND CATS

| have received numerous COM
plants this spring of alleged de-
struction of gardens and flowers by
stray cats and dogs. McConnels-
vile has an ordinance forbidding
dogs to run at large from the first
OF April until the first of November,
and all owners are urged to comply
with this ordinance. There is also
state law forbidding dogs running
at large between sunset and sunrise.
A little consideration for others on
the part of owners of these pets will
work wonders for harmony in our
village life-and perhaps give the
mayor a little rest from these com
plants, which we are powerless to
alleviate without cooperation or
those injured. The only way We
can be of help is for the ones dam
aged to file a complaint against the
owners of these pets. In that way
action can be taken to curb this evil.
We are willing to do all in our pow
er, but in order to be of real help,
we must have your cooperat1on.-
JOHN S. MCBRIDE, Mayor.

Letters From Soldiers

This paper is always pleased to publish letters from
soldiers The boys in camp always glad to
hear from home people, and the home people al
ways just glad to hear from them. By sending let
the paper for publication, they reach hundreds
of friends and acquaintances. Many of soldiers
who are in training widely separated, and it is
interesting to get general record of the various
boys away who scattered about the country Send
in your letters-they do not necessarily have be
long, neither is it necessary have them typewrten
