Missed sessions may be picked up in near-by communities where classes are being held. Mr. Mather told The Star, "one reason the Dale Carnegie Course enjoys such a fine reputation around the world is its unique teaching methods. It is a very practical course, we learn by doing rather than be lectures in Carnegie Programs," he said. "This way a person can learn more quickly and the retention is higher."

Scugog council last week approved a plan for a joint dog control program with the township of Uxbridge for next year. Uxbridge council must still approve the idea. Under the program work- ed out by members of both "council, Uxbridge's dog con- trol officer will serve both townships and will use the pound that is now existing in Goodwood. Coun. Reg Rose said the program will probably cost Scugog about $10,000 next year. But he pointed out that at least $7,000 of this should be recovered by the sale of dog tags. A new fee schedule for dog tags was also approved by council. A tag for a neutered dog will cost $5,00, while a male dog tag will be $7.00 and a female tag $10.00. For every dog more than one, which a person owns, sickening."
