I A Visit By- Santa Claus Even a hospital isn't the worst place to be when Santa calls. That could be what Randy Arnold, 2, is thinking as Mr. and Mrs. Claus come close to the chair in which he sits with his mother. The pair from the North Pole spread cheer in the children's ward and did such a good job of it that many of the youngsters were able to go home before Dec. 25. Randy is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Steve Arnold. STAFF PHOTO-WAYNE GAYLORD Ringwood News Doris Low Katy Christopher 653-9262 385-8037 Dogs Roam Neighborhood "Dog Days"? Well it sure seems like it to some folks in , this area. There have been a couple of big dogs roaming the neighborhood and it is i very, anneyingMFolks. have bushes thaniheae dogs are '• destroying and also anyone with dogs of their own cannot let them out in their own yards because of them. Children are afraid to walk down the street because of the dogs. If one of these dogs belongs to you, you know that they are not to be roaming. I have had a couple of calls about the problem and people are going to do something about them if you don't take care of your own animals.
