40 YEARS AGO: FREE ENTERPRISE WORKS — Typical examples of free enterprise were the actions of two young ladies in Cassville during last Wednesday morning’s awaking to snow covering the ground. Tracie Hill, 14, and Jennifer Dinsmore, 10, took the opportunity of being out of school to earn a few bucks shoveling snow from sidewalks of businesses. Their efforts were rewarding, plus saving owners the trouble of doing the job themselves. A quick warmup of temperatures in the 60’s over the weekend removed all traces of the first ground-coverer of the season.

Meet the marvelous Montgomery! He is a good-looking boy who was lucky enough to land in the yard of a very nice couple to care for him after he was dumped to try to survive on his own. Montgomery is looking for a new forever family to love on him, provide him with a yard to run in and a comfy bed to sleep in. He loves to play and is high energy. He is good with cats, good with dogs, good with children and is house and crate trained. He has even attended dog training classes. He would love to have a dog friend in his new home to play with and keep him entertained. He is tan colored with white around his neck. His estimated date of birth is Oct. 12, 2023. His breed is unknown, but he is possibly a pit mix. Montgomery can climb a chain link fence, so a tall privacy fence would be best for him. Come get this perfect dog.

40 YEARS AGO: A LAST MINUTE EFFORT — Jerry Cook, of Rocky Comfort, who works at Garrett Mfg. in Cassville, was just about to give up hunting Sunday. In fact, at 4:30 p.m., the last day of gun deer season, he was coming back to his vehicle, in sleet and snow. As he thought about the season and possible missed opportunities, little did he realize he was about to be quite successful. The results of his shot so late in the season is pictured above.

Meet Boo Boo! She’s crate trained, housetrained and loves people of all ages. She’s good with other dogs and has already been a fun playmate for several other Haven dogs. She’s been good with cats in the shelter environment. Boo Boo would likely fit in well almost anywhere, although an active home would be her favorite. Her age is a little over a year and her weight is 47 pounds.
