HARLEY
BU C K Y
Harley and Bucky are two senior male dogs available for adoption at Berkshire Humane Society. These two have experienced the loss of their owner, who passed away, so they are being offered for adoption together with both a senior and buddy discount. Harley is a 13-year-old Shetland sheepdog mix and likes going out for walks and then sleeping the day away. Bucky is a 7-year-old black lab mix who also loves walks and playing with toys. He has an old knee injury that does not bother him, but limits him from taking long walks. These sweet boys can be loud at times, so are not suited for apartment life. They could live in a home with cats and respectful children at least 8 years old. If you are interested in adopting Harley and Bucky, please call the Berkshire Humane Society.

Louis Gardella started at the United States Post Office in 1966, when stamps were just 5 cents. A sampling of stamps included: Humane Society, Appreciation of Servicemen, National Park Service.
Louie retired in 1996 (stamps were now 32 cents) and would love to hear from you! He cherished his route: all the people, especially the kids and the dogs too!! At 88 years young, he often reminisces about the wonderful people he had daily contact with. So, drop a card in the U.S. mail to share your memories of your favorite mailman.

Massachusetts Employment Discrimination Guidelines Massachusetts State Law Prohibits Employment Discrimination based on:
RACE, COLOR, NATIONAL ORIGIN, SEX, DISABILITY *, AGE*, GENETIC INFORMATION, MARITAL STATUS, SEXUAL ORIENTATION, MILITARY SERVICE, ARREST RECORD*, GENDER IDENTITY * * DISABILITY: physical or mental. Qualified handi-
capped persons are entitled to reasonable accommodations, unless that accommodation presents an undue hardship to the employer. AGE: (40 and older) Federal law and Massachusetts law both prohibit employers from discriminating against their employees who are 40+ years old based on their age. ARREST RECORD: It is illegal for an employer to ask certain questions about a job applicant's or employee's criminal record. The CORI Reform Act prevents employers from seeking disclosure of job applicants' criminal record information prior to the interview stage of the hiring process. GENDER IDENTITY: It is illegal for an employer to publish a job advertisement that shows a preference for or discourages someone from applying for a job because of his/her race, color, religion, sex (including gender identity, sexual orientation, and pregnancy), national origin, age (40 or older), disability or genetic information. Also, Discrimination Laws refer to Art in Employment ads as well as copy ie: no white male under the age of 40 can be depicted in an employment ad all by himself.
