| | A Merritt Drug Store Opens This Week Carl Merritt has unofficially opened his new drugstore adjacent to the Acme Market. Installation of fixtures and equipment is not yet finished, so the store will not be open for day-long business; but when Mr. Merritt is on hand he will wait on customers. Mr. Merritt will specialize in compounding prescriptions, Limited space eliminates a soda fountain or a lunch counter, so this is a drug store which will handle drugs with very few side-lines, though packaged ice cream and candy will be carried. Mr. and Mrs. Merritt built a house in Goss Manor last year in anticipation of a move from the former location in Forty Fort where the Merritt drug store has been in operation for twenty years. As the life of a druggist takes into consideration very few vaca- tions, the Merritts detemined to have a good one while business was necessarily interrupted. They have covered territory in fifteen states during the past month, from Vir- ginia to Florida and west to Wis- consin, picking up a magnificent coat of tan in the process. Carl Merritt's father before him, Henry Merritt, was also a drug- gist, located in Plains. Carl was associated with him before moving to Forty Fort, where he took over premises vacated by Edward B. Hall, now located in Shavertown.

Wild Dogs Run Deer Game Commission Warns Owners of Fines The Pennsylvania Game Commis- sion through its Division office at Forty Fort reports an increase in the number of dogs running at large in forests. Deer have been driven to the point of exhaustion and some have been killed by these half-starved brutes. Some of these dogs are homeless, half-wild creatures that have been abandoned by indifferent owners. Others are dogs owned by persons who are neglecting their respon- sibilities. They are a menace to wildlife and must be removed, according to information received from Bill Hodge, Wildlife Protection Assis- tant Division B. Field officers of the area have intensified their efforts all along the line, Hodge said. These sections provide penalties from $10 for a dog pursuing small game to $25 and $50 for pursuit or injury to deer or elk respectively. Many dogs put on an entirely different character in the woods, alone or with other dogs, from the one they wear while at home. The perfect child's pet and companion may become a blood-thirsty killer by merely crossing a highway. The Commission office advises that residents of this Division may avoid having their dogs destroyed and themselves inconvenienced by prosecution if they accept the re- sponsibility which is theirs under the law—know where the family dog is at all times.
