' The small village of Lakemoor has taken a very active step itt helping to curb the problem of stray dogp throughout the territory. At the last regular meeting of the board it was decided to maintain a dog pound out of village funds. In charge of this shelter will be Police Lieutenant Frank Bitteumann. The pound will be located on the Bitterman property, which is on the edge of the village limits, thus it should not disturb any of the village residents. The drive to pick up stray dogs went into effect on Feb. 13 -- a very appropriate day for the unlucky dogs. The business section of Lakemow was officially lighted this past week when the newly installed street lights were stvitdhed on for the first time. These are four thousand lumen lights. The lights for the residential sections are now in the process of being installed. They are to,, •>e twenty-five hyndred lumen.

The Village of Lakemoor has approved an ordinance securing a police alarm system to operate through the Illinois Bell Telephone company.

A Red Cross" class will be started within the next few weeks for the firemen and anyone wishing to attend. Watch this column for further details. "Gat," the slang word for gun comes from the Gatling gull which was used before the modern machine gun. NEED OF FEDERAL PROGRAM TO CONTROL RABIES The only way to solve the rabies problem completely is to establish a uniform federal control program, says Dr. R. E. Witter of the University of Illinois College of Veterinary Medicine. Several foreign countries have adopted such programs and are no longer bothered by rabies. The last Illinois General Assembly established a state-wide rabies control program which is a step in the right directidn, Dr. Witter believes. Each county in the state must appoint a licensed veterinarian as a rabies inspector. He must see that all dogs in his county are vaccinated against rabies each year. The first vaccination must be completed by June 1, 1954. After that time, all stray dogs not wearing a vaccination tag will be picked up and confined for at least seven days. DR.
