Although everyone didn’t know him all who went to Oakie’s Place were well acquainted with him and loved him. He was only a dog, I know, folks— The kind that you see every day. But the joy that he brought our Was something that money can't pay.

Skippy wasn’t the only one foully slain, A dozen or more had to share in his pain. Now, God gave us dogs to be man’s truest friends; I know it’s not His wish they have such an-end.

After all it would not only benefit “The Conchs” but tourists too, to have decent streets to ride on, and a clean town to look at.

In all fairness to Mr: Dave King, I personally think that Mr. King did a fairly good job as city manager during the time that he was in office, but the predica- ment he brought upon himself was of his own doings, and being as he was a man to his word he resigned his position with the city because of the four policemen in question being reinstated. Many good men have made mistakes and lots more of them far superior to Mr. King’s quali- fications will keep on making mistakes, We all make mistakes from time to time but that means nothing. But when a man makes a mistake and has the guts to ad- mit that he made a mistake that man can be looked up to, because after all none of us are perfect. However, in Mr.-King’s case, he} wouldn’t admit that he had made a mistake in the matter of the four discharged policemen, in which matter our able city ,attor- ney from time to time.in the dif-| ferent meetings at City Hall read and explained the paragraphs of the city charter, affecting the parts concerned, which, in his rendition of the city charter; did not give the city manager the power of discharge. Mr. King resigned of his own| mijjions of retuming servicemen. accord because he was not will- ing to admit that he possibly had errored in the case pertaining to the discharging of the four police- men. Otherwise, he could have been still holding the office from which he so foolishly resigned. I personally feel that Mr. King has had his opportunity to serve the people of Key West and he let them down at ‘the last min- ute, foolishly, because he would not admit that he had made a mistake and also because he would not accept the findings of the Civil Service Board and its decision to reinstate the four po- licemen in question. The Civil Service Board is there because it is the governing body ‘in all matters ‘concerning civil service employees of the City of Key West and its find- ings are supposed to be the law each case turned in to it for its investigation and its findings and if we have a city manager who can not accept the findings and handed-down statements of the Civil Service Board then I think that he is no good as a city city. And, for that matter, I feel that another qualified and cap- able man is entitled to be ap- pointed city manager of Key West and I know that the city com- missioners have interviewed two on three very capable and quali- fied ‘men, with as good or better qualifications than Mr. King. Let’s appoint a new city mana- ger and get down to work and really do something for our city, KELLER WATSON.
