1978 - Picture of the First Onaway School Building (1888)...and...Sheriff Duane Badder Approaches Onaway City Commission About Stray Dog Problem From Presque Isle County Advance and Onaway Outlook February 1, 2018

  
CAPTION: This is it!  It is the first school building in Onaway. And, no, there were no fancy
water fountains in 1888.  In other Onaway News, newly appointed sheriff Duane Badder was at
an Onaway City Commission meeting in early February 1978 to propose a solution to a problem
with loose dogs that have plagued the city and county for a number of years.  Badder told the 
Onaway City Commission that strays would be picked up and  transported to the Cheboygan
Humane Society and housed for a period of time before being euthanized. County prosecutor
Larry Farmer was studying the 1919 law regarding animal control to be sure that the proposal
was legal.
