During the winter months the de- partment is able to take care of the city to gooof shape with the present force, t: But to the summer, when the complaints about dogs are numerous and there is considerable labor con- nected with the enforcement' of the dog ^license law, and when toe guardians of the city have to look out for the speeders; who make Bvanston a race track, the Inadequacy of the small force is felt.
