  • Humane Society needs donations

    To the editor:
    I am writing to request that your readers remember the Humane Society of Harrison County in their end of the year giving.

With the help of that grant the Humane Society of Harrison County was able to pay for or sponsor almost 400 spaying and neuters in 2012.
