practi cally all taken and one family who desired to locate here last week was disappointed in not getting a place the scarcity of good properties for rent should stimulate the sale of properties in

ibylaw for bidding dogs to run at large but whether the council has done any thing about the request we are un able to state on the face of things it would look as though the matter had been forgotten for any time of the day a goodly number of dogs may be seen roaming the streets right now people are getting their lawns and flower beds dnto shape and strongly protest having them disturbed by roaming canines al ways somebodys pet of course it should bo understood that it is not the specific duty of reeve sanders and his aides to go out with a lasoo and revolver and clean up the situa tion effective even though that may prove the idea we suppose in pro testing to the council about the flagrant manner in which thq by law is regarded is that they may advise their police officer that he should see that this bylaw is re spected by the owners of dogs al though the bylaw provides for dogs being on leash or tied up all the year through a sort of unwritten law has been recognized which is to forget the law during the winter season and the horticulturists thing it is time the winking should stop for the summer at least d o aoeiot ioe30e bring this coupon to the stanley theatre monday
