Libra, Leo, Pisces and Cancer are close behind, but only one grade 9 student is Capricorn, What do you sup- pose that signifies? We think we will ask the teachera in our next survey to sum up the grade 9's In two words or less, and see if the findings match, ‘As far as the Grade 8's go, the great majority was born under the sign of Aries, Quict a way behind were Cancer and Leo.

I wish dog owners would realize thal not everyone ap-* .preciates other people's dogs running about, In the long run the dogs are the ones who end up suffering, when it is really not their fault. Their owners have never bothered to teach them anything. If their owners would spend a few dollars to have their dogs spayed or neutered, it may help the problem. When there is a dog in heat in this neighborhood, she has any- where up to 20 suitors and they are ail over the street. It is a great wonder that someone has not been hurt by these “packs”.
