The Library Corner The Payson Public Library has an added service to help our patrons in Payson. Standing behind our library collection are all of the other libraries in the state of Utah, and in some cases, the nation. This will allow us to borrow books that will be needed for research projects, special interest and hobby reading, and for general use. Requests for material we do not have can be phoned in to the Utah State Library Commission by way of a long distance, charge free service. If the state library does not have the request, and the type of request warrants further research, they are able to teletype or phone university, special, or public libraries to help locate information for our request. In turn any book we have may be loaned to any other library in the state. We have already used this service to fill requests for fiction and non-ficti- material from the state library and in one case, our request went to the University of Utah Medical Sciences Library.

Twice in the last week in the south east part of town two family pets were torn to pieces by a pack of hounds that are trained to kilL In one case the dog managed to reach the front door before he died. This in itself is outrageous but please bear in mind what can happen if a child tries to protect his dog or even an adult, for the owner of these hounds in each case tried to stop the slaughter but was unable to do so. I implore you to please use the news media before some child becomes a victim to these animals. The owner of the three hounds, two tan and one white, has them confined most of H'e time but the two pets were destroyed in a matter of minutes. The owner of these dogs has full knowledge of what they do, but still continues to keep them.
