Other McHenry council members also attending were Jean. Marion of Wonder Lake, Cathy° Anderson and Tom McMBhon of McHenry. Plans were formulated by the students attending for a sub-district convention of the North Shore conference to be held on Saturday, j March 2, at Crystal Lake. and by official sanction of the Lilymoor association, your re* porter feels compelled to comment upon a problem of increasing concern in the subdivision--stray dogs. It would perhaps be best to say stray and uncared-for dogs. These unfortunate animals are causing some concern and damage to property owners, children going to and from school or bus, and individuals, especially women, who are walking to visit neighbors or attend socials at the schoolhouse. There is no doubt that one advantage of suburban living is being able to keep and enjoy "pets in and on our own premises. However, flogs roaming at large and in packs can cause much damage to shrubs, flowers, garbage cans and women and children. Perhaps it is not strange that the strongest and most rightful protests come from individuals who have dogs themselves. Page divwl | A dog harbored at a home is I personal property and taxable as ; such. I believe we all know that j we are liable for personal or prop- .- erty damage inflicted upon others I by our animals. However, before j any unpleasant difficulties of this I type arise, we can all solve the j situation by giving our dogs the | care and protection they are en- ; titled to. The association earnestj ly seeks the cooperation of all | residents to do their part on this i problem in keeping our commun- | ity a safe and attractive place in 1 which to live. j If it is found that some of these j dogs have no owners or proper i homes, it seems only humane that j they are referred to the proper i authorities.
