There was considerable damage done to the car and John lost ft-tooth and was quite shaken up withiSome cuts and bruises. He was able to return to work Monday. Complaint Dept. We are still getting complaints about the dogs, but the main complaint for this week seems to be the children. From reports, the children start congregating at the bus stops by 7:30 a.m. which gives them almost a full hour of waiting. During this time, they aren't too careful ahout the other fellows property. Why not make 8 a.m. the early bird time and if there has to be trampling of property, let it be on an empty lot We all work hard on our yards aind it doesn't make-for a "good neighbor policy" when other people's children destroy our efforts.
