H. Gray. The crime he had com- mitted was not a big one butjustseriousenoughthat he dared not return to his old home in Portland for fear of a prison sentence. Three years ago Merritt, who is only about 23 years old, was working for the firm of Lipman & Wolf in Portland.Hewasdelivering merchandiseandcollecting moneyondelivery.Needing money for some purpose he "knocked down" about $7.50 on his employers. When they found it out he left Portland and has never returned. Last night he told Offi- cer Gray that he was tired of wandering around and wanted to go back to Port- land, his childhood home, and settle down. He said he was now willing to face the charge and was anxious to atone for the crime he had committed. The Portland authori- ties will be communicated with today in order to ver- ify his story and ascer- tain if there was ever any charge placed against him in Portland. It is the opin- ion of the local officials that probably no charge was ev- ery placed against him and that if Merritt really wants to make good and will make up the shortage to his former employers that the matter would be dropped by them. — Jan. 9, 1916 100 YEARS AGO... Tired of dodging officers Embezzled$7.50inPortlandOregon three years ago; give self up here COURTESYPHOTO Gerber Elementary School kicked off the new year with two assemblies with Rusty May. Rusty created SchoolToolsTV, which features one-minute videos to help teachers and students connect and create positive rela- tionships by teaching children social skills and problem solving strategies that improve educational outcomes and reduce bullying. GERBER ELEMENTARY PROMOTING POSITIVITY If you were like me, you did too much sit- ting, too much eating and not enough moving around this past holi- day season. But, it just so happens that Janu- ary is Na- tional Walk Your Dog Month. What a perfect time for both you and Fido to get off the sofa and get some over- due exercise, the bene- fits of which for the both of you are wonderful. Not only will you have a rea- son to get out and enjoy some fresh air and maybe lose some of those extra holiday pounds, but you will also have a faithful companion to do it with. What a perfect way to re- inforce the bond between the two of you. Healthy dogs are en- ergetic and, unless they have constructive out- lets for that pent-up en- ergy, bad behaviors can ensue. If the animal is bored and has nothing else to do, be prepared for the possibility of destruc- tive chewing, barking for no reason, or him being uncontrollable and unco- operative. Taking Fido for a walk helps to give him something positive to do instead. Just as we need physical and mental stim- ulation to function well, so do our dogs. Explor- ing the world with him by your side helps to pro- vide it. In addition, you will have a multitude of opportunities to teach him new things. He could learn to "sit" before cross- ing a road, to "lie down" quietly while you rest, and to "drop it" when he gets into something he shouldn't. The more you share time with your dog, the stronger your relation- ship becomes. Socialization is equally important, especially in the early stages, for a well-behaved, confident animal. Walking provides exposure to a wide variety of situations, such as loud noises, other animals, un- familiar people, and nox- ious smells. Dogs with- out varied exposure can become fearful or, worse, territorially aggressive. When puppies learn how to interact and commu- nicate with people, other canines, and other spe- cies they will become less likely to show aggressive behavior when they reach adulthood. While walking is the perfect opportunity to do some training, there is no reason it cannot be fun and pleasurable for you both. Before heading out be sure to prepare ade- quately for your jaunt. Al- ways carry disposable bags for picking up your dog's feces. Leaving dog waste is not only a health hazard, but also extremely inconsiderate to others who may be enjoying a re- laxing stroll. If you would not like to step in a pile of dog dung, why would you then consider that anyone else would like it? Be sure to carry water for your- self and your dog to hy- drate, especially in warm weather. There are easy to carry, collapsible wa- ter bowls available, or you can always have the an- imal lap the water from your cupped hands. You will also need to have some of the dog's favor- ite bite-sized treats, easily eaten, for rewards as you train good behavior. According to Tehama County Animal regula- tions, anytime you and your dog leave your prop- erty, the dog must be re- strained by a leash and under your physical con- trol. It is important to be aware that, if the dog is loose and does any dam- age, you as the owner can be held liable for any costs incurred. There are many types of leashes available to meet the need, so pick one that is comfortable to hold. How- ever, I would recommend that you avoid using a re- tractable lead, especially if the dog has not been properly trained to walk on a regular leash. It is also important to remember that, until your dog learns to walk politely on loose leash, all walks the both of you take are training walks, because good leash skills are man- datory for both you and your dog's safety. Even a small dog can cause in- jury to you and himself if he pulls too hard, wan- ders back and forth in front of you, or jerks you around. When properly trained, your dog should walk steadily beside you with the leash slack (loose leash). Initially, especially with puppies, it is also ad- visable to keep walks fre- quent, short in duration, and positive for your dog. Until he has mastered leash walking, you may have to find additional means to exercise the dog since the training sessions might be too short to pro- vide the necessary exer- cise. So celebrate National Walk Your Dog Month, by grabbing a leash and walking with your furry friend. Fido will not be the only one benefiting from the exercise. You can be sure you will, too.
