[Nfbmo] Of Interest To Some

[Gail Bryant]

Thank you Sheila for sharing.  This is interesting and no, it's not a waste
of taxpayer dollars.  We have a right to be a part of our state.

And, for those around in the 70's, didn't we have a "Wunder dog" in Eli,
Gary?  He played a big part in the legislature when the White Cane Law was
being passed.  Please share the story.

Recently we had a new chapter formed in Warrensburg. Its name is Old Drum.
It made not sense to me but I heard it had to do with a dog that hung around
campus. Well, I still do not know the full story and will hear it someday,
but in looking for bills of interest, I found the following. The NFB of
Missouri is right in step. Here's the listing of the bill.

 


HB 2581 <http://house.mo.gov/billsummary.aspx?bill=HB2581&year=2016&code=R>
Dohrman, Dean <http://house.mo.gov/member.aspx?district=051> 


Designates "Old Drum" as the state historical dog and "Jim the Wonder Dog"
as Missouri's Wonder Dog(LR# 5421H.01I)

I believe Jim is the dog that was noted for climbing trees.
