NOTICE
TO OWNERS OF DOGS IN CLINTON
Numerous complaints have been brought to the attention of
the undersigned regarding the matter of clogs running at large,
romping through gardens and flowers, and becoming a public
nuisance.
I appeal to the citizens of Clinton to see that their dogs cease
to molest their neighbors.
If this request is observed it may free the Council from passing
a By -Law prohibiting dogs ruining at large during the summer
months.

VARNA
Varna Iced Cross Notes
In 'support of the appeal by the
Canadian Red Cross to collect $9,000,
000 for the pressing needs of the
society, the Ontario Executive after
careful consideration, has set the
Varna Branch quota at $800. The
opening date of the catnpaign.is May
11 and continues till May 26.
Since the List campaign in Octobei
1940, the people of Canada have re-
sponded generously and willingly to
special Red Cross appeals. The
thousands of women volunteers across
Canada have sewed and knitted con-
tinuously on supplies for our armed
forces .(air ,sea and land), for the
bomb victims in Britain and for our
hospitals.
The high objective is necessitated,
by the steadily increasing need for
Prisoners of War parcels which, are
packed weekly and sent to the many
thousands of Canadian and British
who are prisoners in alien countrys,
'and who otherwise would. not be
provided with a balanced diet to
maintain health. As time goes on it
is expected these parcels will have to
be greatly increased in numbers each
parcel costs approximately $2.50.
When the Red Cross asks the peo-
ple of Varna district for funds to con-
tinue the Mulituclinous duties •of the
society the appeal will not be in vain,
for they know what this comforting
"lamp" means in a world darkened by
destruction and tragedy, canvassers
have been assigned to the different
sections of the community and will be
calling at your home, (objective
$800.),
