Doggy News If you are having trouble with stray dogs and want something done about . it call the deputies, Dick Farwell and Don Morin. If you are unable to reach them, then give Fred Haubold a call. They will do everything in their power to be of service to you. If, your dog is running loose and hasn't come home for a few day?, it would be a good idea to check with Dr. Fike in McHenry. The dogs are taken there and kept for seven days before anything is done witn them. That's It For another week. If you get tireJ reading about the same ones every week, you can call me with your news and maybe we can make the column more interesting. Have a nice week. Bye now.

The whole family is enjoying their new home in the . subdivision. Tampering with Mailboxes Your reporter has been asked to bring to the attention of subdivision parents the gravity of allowing children to look into and otherwise tamper with mailboxes along the road. Please impress upon the youngsters the importance of respecting the privacy of others. Removing mail from another's mailbox is a federal offense and parents can be held responsible for the actions of their children in this regard. In addition, children who trespass on the property of others endanger their own lives. Some residents have given up admonishing the parents and have threatened to use force to keep children from damaging their property. It is the mark of a good citizen to keep a close watch on your children's activities. i Birthday Celebrations Linda Exline was nine last week and marked the happy event with a party at her home on Tuesday, Feb. 21.

Custom T.V. Topics By Ray Zelewsky Husband & Children Finder Just about the time we think that electronic gadgets inventing has slowed down, out comes tinother idea. This one is an electronic 'gizmo' that is attached to livestock, and periodically transmits a beep sound to the receiver in the farmer's dwelling, letting him know where his herds are. This idea ought to go well in the vast plains and valleys of our western states. Maybe we'll stock this item at CUSTOM TV. You could use it as a husband and. children finder. Just think of the possibilities; you could sneak It in the lining of a coat, and keep a pretty good check on a person's, meanderings. We'll include this 'gizmo' in our line with television, radio, hi-fi and so on. Phone EV. ft* S757 or 5-5659 for prompt and guaranteed services.
