Taxation Without Representation

After reading the schedule of the St. Joseph c unty TB Association for tie n.i ‘ole X Bay machine in this county, many Walkerton persons wen a little upset to see that once again Walkcrt>n had been omitted from the list of places visited. Holding nothing against North Liberty’s getting this service, it is disturbing, however, to think h<tw long it has be< n since the mobile unit has visited Walkerton. Time and time again the very end of the county is omitted. However. Walkerton still remains the third largest city in the county behind South Bend and North Liberty. It is not just this group that continually passes Walkerton. It must be noted that every November our area certainly is not omitted when it comes to raising money. In fact, the County Chapter can be proud of the job done in Walkerton each year, especially this past year when the TB Christmas Seal Sale vau’te l past <1 000.00 This part of their operation is never

(imty of the Elementary School. I hiring tins period, dogs can be dangerous. Around a grade school is the worst spot they could be. What would happen if a dog bit a ehr\d and then couldn t be found or identified. That would mean a series of the painful rabies shots. Recently the Walkerton Poli, e Department has had to destroy some dogs These could lie pets running free, but running .is they are. they are a menace If you have a dog. protect him as a pet should lx? and if this is done, he wil^ be protected by you The d°gs running in packs at this time should be destroyed. Do your part in ridding the town of this type of situation that could mean harm to a child as well as the pet itself.

missed and even follow-up letters are received if someone doesn’t send their contribution in each year. Let them follow up the rest of the program and give a little service in this end of the county. Looking on the schedule, it is noted that several industrial concerns are the site for the ma. chine Walkerton ha s industry, in fa» t. has more than many areas can boast But stiU they are overlooked. It is probably too late to alter the plans this trip, but maybe could be worker in the plans for the next trip around. This isn’t the only source of negligence that is obvious to Walkerton, but one must also realize that the services that are available to this area arc very slim for the tax dollars paid into these various departments. The only two times we arc known in this area is payment time or if a net,vs story of a more undesirable nature hits the press, then watch us gain our fame.

Some researchers belnve that living organisms on earth are regulated by biological ch - ks that are influ need by the < irih’s magnetic and electrical fields, gravity and ra hatmn from space. To test the theory, sc. ntists at Northwest rn Univei iv plan to orbit a potato around the sun where it will be free of earthly influences. If the "spudmk” dies, they theorize, it’ll mean that it has gone beserk because it’s clocks have stopped and that the same thing could happen to man. Gormcts may protest that it’s a terrible way to treat such a delicacy, but the Cortunix quail is hailed by Auburn University as an excellent laboratory animal Advantages of using the feathered guinea pig for research are said to include its hardiness, ability to breed and mature quick ly, and its high metabolism.
