Kerns was awarded the low bid paving contract earlier this sum-
mer, but have been unable to start the project for several reasons,
mainly that the town on the east side has had new wamr and
sewer lines replaced.

Those that have been caught and convicted of illegally dump-
ing trash on Payne County rural roads probably don't think the
above headline is very funny.
Don Prickett, Payne County environmental Control officer, is
taking it serious too as he has already "busted" one ,dumper" and
has at least 15 more cases pending court dates.
Bryant R. Warren, 419 S. West Street, Stillwater, was fined $250
that will go to the county trash fund, assessed $100 in court costs,
and sentenced to a one-year deferred sentence, plus 20 hours of
community service.
Those convicted of illegally dumping could also face a "cleanup
fee". Warren "cleaned up his mess" and did not have to pay that
fee, Prickett told The Perkins Journal.
"I've already located and investigated 153 dump sites so far,"
games and "treats" for all of
the youngsters and parents
who may not wish to go
door. to door in the tradi-
tional "Trick or Treat" style.
There is no charge for the
event thanks to contribu-
tions from the Perkins Ma-,
sonic Lodge, local rner-
chants, and the Perkins
Chamber o fCommerce.
