Nome Children To
Parade Pets at Fair
Nome children will probably be
“going to the dogs” on Ipswichday
afternoon when they parade their
pets at the Fait.
Chairman of this event, Mrs.
W. B. McCarthy, stated that little
pets, middle-sized pets and big
pets are acceptable. She cautions
that all dogs be on leashes so that
they do not become too friendly
with the cats, birds and bunnies
expected to be entered in the show.
Does any child have a pet
ground squirrel or other unusual
pet?
Children under 14 years old may
enter and about the only known
pet excluded from the show will
he Prince, Nome’s pet hcrrse.
