Recently it was brought to my attention about a strange dog that bit one of our three year old girls, Kathy Rowlands. It could have been a rabies case but luckily it wasn't. After some thought we knew something has got to be done and very soon before ,it happens again. Why s$ut the barn door after the cow is out? If the police officers would pick them up and take them in. hold them for that five days (I mentioned last week) and then if not claimed have them put to sleep. None of us enjoy seeing these beautiful animals roaming all over, hungry and freezing -- they are better off deaaT - ^ Indoor Activity Angelo Smith is very much interested in getting a few chess players.

Careful Does It Ed Schneider is still very careful not to have a recurrence of his ailing back which required surgery several months ago.
