BOZO - A playful puppy when the gates are open, but when
they are closed, “he’s a different dog.”
Bozo could be called the
Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde of
the dog world.
The 2‘ 2 year old German
Shepherd is as playful as a
kitten during the daytime.
But beware of him at night,
for then he changes into
Super Security Dog at
Coleman’s Garage.
“He’s a different dog when
the gates are closed,” said
mechanic Carlton Allen. It
seems that when the gates
are closed Bozo realizes his
responsibilities and per
forms.

Bozo alerted the police in

Bozo who usually greets the
police patrol car with excite

police knew something was

Bozo prefers the air-condi
tioned office on hot days but
shoots outside when the
office manager, Mrs. Hilda
James, comes in. “He stays
away from me. I think he
senses I don't like dogs too
much.” said Mrs. James.
According to Mr. Coleman,
Security Dog Bozo is on an
expense account. “And the
way that dog can eat, he gets
pretty expensive.”

Calluses are nature s way
of building up a protective
layer of skin to protect your
hands, or your feet. Calluses
ordinarily appear only after
repeated hard usage of the
hands in manual labor. In the
case of the feet calluses are
usually the result of poor
fitting shoes, or from
extensive walking without
shoes.
A callus may be worri
some. but never, never
attempt to cut the callus
away with a sharp instru
ment. Only a doctor is
qualified to remove calluses
when minor surgery is
required. Actually, surgery
is usually not necessary.
Softening creams and special
medications are available to
soften calluses and bring
about a return to a normal
skin condition.
We can serve all of your
pharmaceutical needs
whether you need a skin
softener or a prescription

macists are happy to sene
