More Stray "Pets' in Bayfield Mayfield Correspondent) It has been brought to the attention of the writer that there are two more stray pets in the village this week. This time instead of cats, it is two nice friendly dogs, the "Heinz" variety. But nevertheless, they are pets which are going to go hungry unless someone adopts them. The question has arisen:: "Why is Bayfield becoming a dumping ground for unwanted pets?" Perhaps some people agine that the citizens here bend over backwards to help strays. It is so that we are a sym- pathetic people and there are those who provide food for cats and dogs which for some reas- on or other have lost their bearings. But the proper cher net to dispose of unwanted pets is through the Humane Society not to abandon them on some- one's door step. 0 Mrs. E. Howard's 91st Birthday (Bayfield Correspondent) The 91st birthday annivers- ary of Mrs. Ellen Howard was observed February 5 by the family when they met at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Anna Wiley, Ousted, Mich.
