NOTE
All persons are respectfully requested to examine the foregoing reports of births, marriages and deaths and report to the Town Clerk any errors or omissions that may be discerned therein, so that the records may be corrected. An error in the record, other than a mis- take in copying a certificate or return, can be corrected only in ac- cordance with a deposition under oath made by one who is required by law, to furnish the information for the original record or by one or more creditable persons having knowledge of the case.
(See General Laws, Chapter 46, Section 13 as amended)
Births occurring late in the year are sometimes returned without the Christian name. In such cases parents should return the name to the Town Clerk as soon as selected, as incompleteness of the record may occasion trouble in the future.
Attention is particularly called to the following extracts from the General Laws :

The attention of owners and keepers of dogs is called to the fol- lowing extracts from Chapter 140 of the General Laws as amended : Definition: "License period," the time between April first and the following March thirty-first, both dates inclusive.
Section 137. LICENSES and TAGS. A person who at the commence- ment of a license period is, or who during any license period becomes, the owner or keeper of a dog three months old or over which is not duly licensed, and the owner or keeper of a dog when it becomes three months old during a license period, shall cause it to be registered, numbered, described and licensed until the end of such license period and the owner or keeper of a dog so registered, numbered, described and licensed during any license period, in order to own or keep such dog after the beginning of the succeeding license period, shall, be- fore the beginning thereof, cause it to be registered, numbered, de- scribed and licensed for such period. The registering, numbering, describing and licensing of a dog, if kept in any town shall be in the office of the clerk thereof.
The license shall be in a form prescribed by the director, upon a blank furnished, ** by the county in which the town is located, and shall be subject to the condition expressed therein that the dog which is the subject of the license shall be controlled and restrained from killing, chasing or harassing livestock or fowls. The owner or keeper of a licensed dog shall cause it to wear around its neck or body a collar or harness of leather or other suitable material, to which shall be securely attached a tag in a form prescribed by the director, and upon which shall appear the license number, the name of the town issuing such license and the year of issue. Such tags shall be furnished in the same manner as the license blanks, and if any such tag shall be lost the owner or keeper of such dog shall forthwith se- cure a substitute tag from the town clerk ** at a cost of ten cents which, if received by a town clerk, shall be retained by him unless otherwise provided by law.
Section 139. FEES and LICENSES. The fees for every license shall, except as otherwise provided, be two dollars for a male dog and five dollars for a female dog, unless a certificate of a registered veterinarian who performed the operation that said female dog has been spayed and has thereby been deprived of the power of propagation has been filed with the town clerk, in which case the fee shall be two dollars. A certified copy of such certificate on file in the office of any town clerk within the Commonwealth may be accepted as evidence that the said operation has been performed.
