STRAY DOGS RUIN BUSINESS Editor, The Citizen: I would like to hear from some Public-spirited citizens on the subject of what may be done re- garding the stray dog problem. 1 have appealed repeatedly to the proper authorities, including the mayor and police, with no re- sult except to be offered a dead- ly poison to spread about. Frank- ly, 1 would not poison a dog any sooner than I would stick a knife in a man’s back. I do know that there are ways to put stray dogs to death pain- lessly but some one with a desire to help the community would have to be interested in attend- ing to this duty. I understand that we have a city law requir- ing tags for all dogs and some one is not fulfilling the law—in a way that is hurtful to the com- manity. leave my told just today by a guest in the house, who came here to buy property and make» her home, that ‘she had not had one .good night’s sleep since arriving and that she would leave unless something was done. I pay well in licenses to the city to help pay salaries and keep up the city’s expenses and I would appreciate a little pro- tection in my business in re- turn. Last night and every night, eight to ten dogs sleep on our porch and in our chairs and there are more on the lawn and among the flowers, which they dig up and destroy.
