Pleasant, this lovely town will soon be Dog Town if drastic measures are not taken immediately to rid it of the multitude of dogs running loose. We all love a good dog and especially a useful one, properly trained and cared for, but the horde of mongrels turned loose on this town are not only useless, but completely undisciplined and uncared for. With nothing else to do the dogs of the town roam the streets night and day, chase cars, people and bicycles; bark all night to keep folks awake (especially when people are ill and have trouble sleeping), and get involved in all sorts of mischief and depredations. School is now open with our children walking the streets to and from school, and with the menace of dogs in almost every block. We older people who like to enjoy a peaceful walk in the evening cannot do so due to the constant attack of dogs. We cannot ride our pet mare with her pretty colt along any street without dogs chasing the frightened colt into all kinds of hazards. Our post office, drug store and market entrances are blocked by marauding dog packs, with shrubbery befouled and lawns used as dog latrines. Our sheep herds will soon be back in the valley and be met by stray dogs packs. It is hard to understand why the people of Mt. Pleasant who own dogs are so shamefully irresponsible as to turn them loose on the public. If they love their pets, why don't they take proper care of them and prevent them from endangering or annoying other people? An immediate challenge should be issued to our city fathers to really do something effective to completely clear this fair city of uncontrolled dogs. Any dog lover who really loves his pet dog will keep it under control so all loose dogs can be disposed of, with no objection. Let's make this city a place worthy of its name! P. F. Lambert O.
