Summer scouting activities
were not as lively as antici-
pated due to holidays and
other sports. However the
scouts did manage one camping
trip to meet with the visit-
ing Rangers on tour from Fort
Nelson. After the camping
trip, scout Wade Hansma went
on tour through the Yukon and
Alaska with them. The tour
was lead.by Fraser Grey of
Fort Nelson.

Scout supervisors, Dick
Hanna and Grant Smith chaper-
oned the camp and activities
while the Rangers visited.
they served as chief cooks
and bottle washers, and
admirals of the fleet of:

canoes.

_ Strange disappearance

In late July, from the
21st to the 24th, at least
six dogs were reported miss- >
ing from Cassiar. Rumors
were heard that the dogs were
collected ahd shot. Either
rifle or tranquillizer guns
were used, and the dogs kill-
ed were found in various
places. However, neither
police or residents ‘have
found traces of this.

What has happened to these

*dogs--guns* poison, wolves,
theft? Where did they go?
lf a dog is running loose
in the town annoying anyone,
all that is required is a
call to the R.C.M.P. and the
animal will be picked up and
placed In the dog pound.

Of course, there is the

arqument concerning the

MSS
~ Ce d v4
pound. However up until six (i al
months aqo, there was no KX<_)
building at all. Last winter aaa >

there was a problem with an
accumulation of doqs left
behind when the owners moved
from Cassiar. They ran aroun
around in packs and finally -
had to be collected and kill-
ed.

' Some dog owners have men-
tioned that they would not
mind if their dog was found
running loose and placed in
the dog pound for 24 hours
Providing they were notified
of this. It has happened a
couple of times so far, and

a $10 charge was collected
from the owner.

If the doq pound is to be
used efficiently, there must
be improved’ facilities.
Should both the doq-owners
and non-dog-owners be respon-
sible for this? Where does
the responsibility lie?

_ _1f your neighbours doq is
making too much noise late at
night, or starts tearing up
your front lawn, wouldn't it
save a lot of anxiety and
harsh words by phoning the
owner immediately? a son, Derk George, born
