The Pet Column Edited by Mrs. H. D. Reynolds BE KIND TO ANIMALS WEEK APRIL 12-17 Humane Sunday, April 11 Help Make the Week & Success KINDNESS TO ANIMALS This is the time especially tor the PEOPLE to talk it PRESS to publish it TEACHERS to teach it MINISTERS to preach it This column wishes to extend its slncerest thanks and appreciation to Mayor Keidel of Rockleigh borough, who humanely ended the agony of a dog we chanced to see by the road side in that borough. Its shoulder had been completely crushed by an automobile, which had evidently driv en on. Seeing some men on a lawn near by, we inquired for the nearest police station, explaining our object in finding one. Dr. Reidel volunteer ed to attend to the matter without de lay, which he did, getting an ugly bite in his right arm from the pain crazed dog. The doctor did .not seem in the least upset about the bite, but he showed genuine concern about the un fortunate collie and denounced em phatically the autolst who would leave a dog in such a plight. It is gratifying to those fond of animals to know so prominent a man is an active humanitarian. There has recently been coined a word for a person indifferent to the suffering of animals. It is “pitilacker" and won the contest of the Pennsylva nia S. P. C. A. for the finding of such a word. Mrs. M. Mclvaine Bready of Mickleton, N. J„ is the clever inventor of it. “Pitilacker”—so much in one •word—selfishness, suffering and on indefinitely. It shows, too, an inter est in and understanding of humane work on the part of Mrs. Bready, and we are glad she lives in New Jersey, for our state Is unbelievably behind in S. P. C. A. work and needs workers of her type. So far as we have been able to dis cover, the one county that redeems the state’s inactivity in humane work is the Hudson County District S. P. C. A. Their place Is a credit to a, Chris tian community, and their activity ex tends to every branch of the work. One example is their NOTICE TO THE PUBLIC: “When you see a hun gry, stray or homeless dog or cat on the street don’t kick or abuse it. • Phone the S. P. C. A. to send a wagon for it. When you get tired of your dog or cat DON’T TURN IT LOOSE UPON THE STREET. That- is un lawfully cruel to the animal and a nuisance to the public. Send for one of the S. P. C. A. ambulances. We afe open day and night, Sundays and holidays included.” Think of that for vigilance! Their literature is of superior quality, and they are most active in school work. Humane edu cation In the schools is well on its way to a definite arrival, and before long It will have an established place in the curriculum. Its importance is being realised very generally by the parents—attd a number of teachers. The Hudson County S. P. C. A. book mark is a novelty—a pretty shade of yellow cardboard, on the top of which is printed: “Treat animals as YOU would wish to be treated if YOU were one of them.” Then the picture of a horse, a dog and a cat and a bit of verSe entitled: The Kindly Rule My teacher says that animals Deserve the best of fare; Clean beds, fresh water, healthful food, And very loving oare. And when their eyes look up to mine, Such dear, appealing eyes: I wonder how could one forget, , Or treat them otherwise. —Fairmont Snyder. We wonder if the Audubon Society cannot And a way to help the tea room canaries, at present so much in vogue. Without about every third lady incessantly smoking in these cosy, congested bits of misdirected decorators’ art. these poor little tilings do more than their bit in lend ing "atmosphere.” They are made to give up their lives in a long drawn out suffocation from the ill odored fumes that rise and stay near the ceiling from which they are usually suspended. In the Cottage Tea Room the other day one lay dying in his cage, another had his head tucked under his wing for the entire forty minutes we were there—a third sung merrily, though spasmodically, near the front of the room, where the smoke was not so dense and where his cage wus not suspended from-the celling. Our slight remonstrance to the cashier brought forth his vehem ent assurances that the birds were more than all right and had been for two years. He did not specify if the Hame birds had been all right for two years. The American Humane Education ; Society, Boston, sends out a pamphlet j for A Festival of Tender Mercies, and one of the very beautiful things con tained in it is this prayer: If I can stop one heart from breaking, I shall not live in vain; If I cau ease one life the aching or cool one pain. Or help one fainting robin unto its nest again, I shall not live in vain. Our Father, help us to be kind! Help us to learn to put ourselves in others' places; Help us to do as we would be done by, To carry the burden for tired ones, To remember those that are in bonds as bound with them, To speak for those who cannot speak for themselves, And never to And in another's pain our sport. Help us to be like thine own-self, Who art all loving kindness and ten der mercies.
