Shea, who is cur rently the chairman of an in tensive fund-raising campaign to save Constable Hall,a northern New York historical landmark. William Constable, Sr., an aide-de-camp of General La- Fayette during the Revolutionary War and a friend of General Washington, purchased in 1791 a 4.000,000 acre tract of land in Northern New York. His hold ings comprised one-tenth of the State! His son, William, Jr.,built a magnificent stone structure, at that time second to none west of the Hudson River, It took ten years to build, was completed in 1819, with manv of the orig inal furnishings made bv Duncan Phyfe. It was named Constable Hall, and is located in what Is now known as Constableville. In authenticity, beauty and histor ical conlribution tt compares with such places as Mount Vernon and Montlcello. Constable's descendants occu pied tbe building through the years unfit 1948 when a few wealthy local philanthropists purchased and restored ihe estate to Its early elegance. In 1949 they do nated it to the non-profit Con stable Hall Association which presently operates it In Ihe pub lic Interest as an Historic House Museum. However, other than Individual donations, about the only fixed Income since 1949 has been from the small admission charge which simply has not sus tained the upkeep of the property forcing It to be maintained with a small amount of repairs over the years. Now there are no funds tor the vital work that has ac cumulated and mustbedone. Con- stableville Hall is imperiled fin ancially and without increased North Country support tt will perish. Mrs, Lyman P. Williams, Association stated. “ However, Constable Hall need not be and should not be a long-term finan cial burden on our area. Upstate New Yurk Is fast becoming a popular tourist area and with suf ficient funds to do some badly needed maintenance work and then to properly advertise and promote this beautiful historic landmark, lhe Association be lieves It can easily stand on Its own. “ Therefore, we Invite you to participate In a ‘one-time only’ major fund raising campaign. Your support will be evidence of your desire to allow future existence of this cultural heri tage of our area. “Our goal must be S50,000 and your Immediate help is need ed, One half of this money will be used for major maintenance problems, repairs, and restora tion of historic items which are in desperate need to attention if they are to be salvaged. Also, an intensified promotional adver tising campaign must be con ducted because much of the public is not yet aware of (hts magni ficent building, The other half of the money will be p'a.'ed in a high interest account to help provide an economic future. “ Please lake or mail tour contribution to: Constable Halt Associaiton, inc., Attn: Mrs. L i man P. Williams, president,Con stableville, New Yurk 13325. “ Feci free to contact nte through the above address if you want any further information or if you would fike me to stop by and pick up vour gift. \You are also invited to «ee Constable Hall, tell tbe story of its tfme. Bring your friends and others, and Join the many hun dreds of schoot children and a- duits who yearly view historv at the time of the post-Revolu- tionary War era it's a good place to v isit.” they toured the College of Sante Ft/ in New Mexico and U.S. A.F. Academy at Colorado Springs. A raft ride down the Colorado River was a very Interesting eXperUnde, Thev spent ten days on the Phllmont T rails, which consisted of 89 miles of hiking and mountain climbing. While on the trait they saw a targe a - mount of wildlife. Several other groups lost their food to the bears during the night. Seeing a different part of the country and meeting a great number of friendly people was an exper ience they will long remember. Through the cooperation of all the scouts, and especially thp efforts of their leaders Ted Nad- elin, Frank Pepe and WHHam Deafi, the trip was educational and enjoyable.

The WaddlDgton Legislator, testifying at a hearing in Wa tertown jii the proposed law„said that the “ fine print*' in the bill states that 19 percent of the proposed $10 fee will go to the State to “ coordinate local en forcement activities.” At the present time the State receives 10 percent of dog license fees. '*ff the State Is fco collect $b$0 per dog, as it would under the proposed rate,\ Assembly man Haley said, “ It would mean an additional $2,031*915 in new revenje to the State. For what purpose? The law says *to ap point not less than five state animal con’ ro* officers*. Do we not have enough of a state bur eaucracy already? Must we have the state even helping us tn dog control? We all accept that there is a proper place for state-A’id* regulation of various activities, although most of us suspect that the state's activities have become much too vast and much too ex pensive. There should not be n?w animat control officers “TTriis is a particularly unfort- uiute proposal, I think/* he con tinued, “ in vie a - af the shortage of Industrial safety inspectors In this StateJ as anyone who vorks in factories can attest.’’ In hts testimony at the Depart ment of Agriculture and Markets hearing, Assemblyman Haley ren prior to the openingof school. Children In kindergarten through 6tb grade should be registered af the Elementary Office In the Lyons Falls Elementary School building. Students in grades ? through 12 should register at the South Lewis Junior-Senior High School tn Turin. Junior and senior high scboof students wtU receive their c lass schedules from their home room teachers the first day of school* Homeroom lists wtU be posted throughout the building for student reference. A regular meeting of the South Lewis Board of Education was held on Thursday, August 10, at tbe Junior-senior hlgb school in Turin. Permission was granted to Dr. William Alexander to attend the Elementary Administrators* Conference at the Concord in October. Mr. Edward Steber, District Principal, reported to the Board on a recent meeting he at tended lo New York City, held by the American Management As sociation. Representatives from the Lewis County Trust Company met with the Board of Education.Fol lowing a lengthy discussion, the Board reaffirmed its earlier position to use the services of The Lyons Falls National Bank for its working accounts. One In terest account is maintained at the Oneida National Bank In Bcoavtlle. Schoal Attorney, Lyman P. Williams, represented the d is trict at a preliminary hearing in Syracuse ox August O', This hear ing was held because tbe South proposed that problems relating to dogs be handled by local governments with enforcent-ot, administration and funding hand led by the local governments. He suggested a $5,00 license fee for dogs as a “ perfectly acceptable level.** “ Since all the work in volved in ea'orcement o f dog iaw.v is at the local level,** he ob served, “ 1 really wonder why any of the proceed-3 should go to the State. Under present procedures, the state’s 10 percent ts taken out after fhe local go/emm«'nts have taken (heir part, and Is forwarded to Albany by the county govern- m ot. It is especially interesting to note that under the new pro posal, all of the suggested U0 fee would go to Albany first, and then Albany would later re turn to the focal governments the portions assigned fo them. I do not agree with this procedure. If the Department of Agriculture and Markets Is to receive any of the money from the fees. If Its work in this field can Justify any portion of the fees, then they should be remitted as a t present- after the local governments have deducted their share, f do not suggest a formula fo? th? part to be divided among local govern ments, for I think this should be left to someone who is aware of the relative costs of dog control at the various levels of local government.** Continuing Ms discussion o f dog license fees. Assemblyman Haley said, “ If the local government finds that the $5 fee is insuf ficient to rover the costs of Its dog control program, then I be lieve it should be up to the local government, at Ifs option, to raise the fee to v,hat it needs and can Justify' to its vo ers,*’ Assemblyman Haley also pro posed: 1) That tatoom g be left for local govern rnents to be done only If they so decide, and in any case, be restricted to pup pies. “ Requiring tatooing state wide by licensed personnel means that the people of the State have to get involved with a whofenew bunch of extra people and pro cedures which we've gotferr along without, uatll now *' 2) That the section of the taw dealing with rabies shots be “ tightened up,** requiring such shots at regular intervals as in dicated by competent medical opinion The proposed new’ law requires only one rabies shot which, It ts generally understood, wears ou* In three to four years, 3) Tht> question of a dog cen sus should be left to local op tion. The St. Lawrence aad Frank lin County Legislator commented that the section of tbe taw dealing with the destruction of deer by dogs Is \good provided that a dog is seUed or destroyed while attacking or chasing deer.\ The proposed law stipulates that the owuer of a dog wUl be subject to a civil penalty ofSJOD for the first deer killed or crippled and $150 for each additional deer k il led or crippled.
