Ark Animal Sanctuary

During one of the worst snowstorms that we had this year, a small dog was spotted on one of the busiest roads in town. The animal was almost hit multiple times as it ran out in the middle of the road. Two school teachers stopped on their way to work to try and help the tiny little animal, but were unsuccessful. A gentleman in a truck, determined to catch it, followed the dog slowly until it reached a point where it just sat down. He opened the door and the dog hopped in.

Please do not litter — cats

To the editor:
It is always the season to not litter. Not only is it illegal to litter in Maine, but it is punishable with a hefty fine. This is for the good of the environment as well as the scenic value of our tourist season. I do love seeing this law strictly enforced by our police department.
