On the big sand slough bridge the work of digging holes for the piers and driving piling has been delayed somewhat in or- der to give the concrete workers an opportunity to catch up with them. In this way should high wa- ter threaten it would be possible for the workmen to finish concreting every pier where the piles were ready, before the hole would be filled up again by high water. — Nov. 28, 1915 100 YEARS AGO... Sa ms on s lo ug h bridge finished in three days Rushingotherwork To have a "Home for the Holidays" is a wish many would like to come true. The merri- est time of the year for a lot of us can be a heart- breaking oc- casion for many. Our organization, PETS, also realizes that, while there are pets who have homes and will receive an abun- dance of gifts and treats during the holiday season, their homeless equivalents will not receive those lux- uries. It is our hope that each Tehama County shel- ter pet will get a "Home for the Holidays". In order for us to gather the funds nec- essary to empty the shel- ter this holiday season, we will host our largest fun- draising event of the year, "Strikes for Strays" on De- cember 4th, next Friday. No matter how much we wish that it wasn't neces- sary, contributions are es- sential to us in achieving this and the many other goals we have for both ani- mals and their families. For those of you who are not aware of how PETS utilizes donations, perhaps the fol- lowing will provide some insight. This past year we in- stituted at the Tehama County Animal Care Cen- ter two programs to fa- cilitate increased animal adoption by covering the spay/neuter amounts of the adoption fees. In addi- tion, we believe each pro- gram aids some very spe- cial members of our com- munity. The "A Senior for A Senior" program is all about seniors discovering the joys of having a pet in their lives. The program helps senior citizens who are on a fixed income and unable to afford the adop- tion fees for a companion animal, but are capable of caring for a pet. The other is the " Law Enforcement/ Fire Protection" Adoption program. PETS feels that the men and women who serve our county deserve our support and gratitude for the jobs that they do. Just as they help us, PETS hopes that, by reducing the adoption fees, we can help them and the animals of the center come together a bit more readily. In addi- tion, monthly, throughout the year, special adoption events are held at the cen- ter with PETS again paying the spay/neuter fees to re- duce adoptive costs. Many animals come into the center with extraordi- nary needs. The monies re- ceived allow us to assist animals who have the po- tential to become healthy and adoptable if provided additional medical care and resources that the lim- ited county budget cannot meet. PETS also purchases equipment and supplies to provide comfort and im- prove the quality of their lives while the animals stay at the Center. We subsidize the trans- portation of animals from the center to collabora- tive rescue organizations throughout California and other states, in order for the animals to have a bet- ter chance for adoption. Over these past 10 months, 313 animals were trans- ported under this amazing worthwhile program. PETS truly believes that pets are a lifetime commit- ment and deserve a safe and loving home. They can help make us better peo- ple and have the ability to strengthen our family unit. As an indirect result, com- munities are improved and the world around us be- comes a healthier, more pleasant place to live. Therefore, we actively par- ticipate in local commu- nity events like LIFT and Community Action Agency Tailgate giveaways when resources allow. During the past 10 months, we have provided over 4,000 pounds of pet food to low income families, and pro- vided vaccinations for more than 180 pets. For the residents of our community, we offer infor- mation and education to introduce the higher ide- als of compassion toward pets and people, responsi- ble pet guardianship, and controlling pet overpopula- tion. Our core belief is that the community, as a whole, greatly improves with re- sponsible pet ownership. Additionally, we estab- lished a Lost/Found Pro- gram, where we post and network lost/found ani- mals in Tehama County through various media out- lets in order to reunite the animals with their owners, thus preventing them from entering the shelter system. All of PETS operating costs come from dona- tions and our fundraising efforts. We are completely run by dedicated volun- teers, thus ensuring that all monies raised can di- rectly influence the health and well-being of as many animals as we possibly can. 100% of donated monies go to our programs. No matter what gets you into the holiday mood, cel- ebrations with family and friends, festive decora- tions or joining us next Fri- day at "Strikes for Strays," sharing kindness ensures that the spirit of the season will stay with us through- out it. Let us all, this holi- day season, strive to make a homeless animal believe the world is a little kinder during this most magical of times by helping us help them get a "Home for the Holidays."

POLICE LOGS By Rick Silva Paradise Post PARADISE A police offi- cer's shooting of a driv- ing-under-the- influence suspect Thursday morn- ing in Paradise was ac- cidental, Butte County District Attorney Mike Ramsey confirmed Fri- day afternoon. The officer, Patrick Feaster, is a 5-year vet- eran of the Paradise Police Department. Ramsey said Feaster told investigators he does not know why the gun discharged. Feaster had been try- ing to stop a Toyota 4-runner speeding east- bound on Pearson Road with no headlights early Thursday morning, when it hit the median at Black Olive Drive and rolled. When Feaster began to investigate the scene, Ramsey said saw that Darien Rayne Ehorn, 23, had been ejected and was lying in front of the car, which was on its side with the driver side up. Ehorn died at the scene. That's when a man, An- drew Nicholas Thomas, 26 began to exit the car. "(Thomas) was coming up through the driver-side window," Ramsey said on Thursday. "The officer un- holstered his weapon and fired one shot, and the man went back down." The bullet struck Thomas in the lower right neck. He is in critical con- dition at Enloe Medical Center in Chico. Ramsey said they still have yet to determine who was driving that evening.
