It was the most informative and weir conducted meeting we have had the priv ilege, to attend for some time. Larry Booster from Lakemoor and Kenneth Merley of Fairview were the speakers for the evening. When every one left /4tey were well informed on the pros and cons of incorporation. Due to local interest and for those who could not attend, a petition was circulated throughout the Highlands for the express purpose of calling another meeting with the same speakers: The petition with 194 names was submitted Monday evening to President Floyd ^hrison, who called a meeting 9 the board to grant said petition. We hope every resident will give these men their undivided attention. Thanks to all the girls who helped get the meeting together and a hearty thanks to all the women who donated cupcakes and coffee. "Child Bitten By Running Dog" ^In, spite of our constant fadings for people to keep their dogs tied or confined, David Fletcher was bitten by a dog running loose Saturday.

It is time we all kept our pets tj|d. A law suit can be very "pensive. Having a license for your dog does not give you the rjf$it to let it roam, nor does if give us the right to assume ihe attitude, because we live ill the country, our dogs can ruh:-'There are many children in the Highlands.
