Taking this subject as his theme at the morning service at St, John's Episcopal Chruch, Sellwood, the Rev. John D. Rice said in part: "The study of the animal kingdom is a delightful one. It has appealed to the gentlest and most learned peo ple. From dumb creatures we can learn lessons of patience. Industry, heroic devotion, loyalty and affection. Needless, deliberate mistreatment of them is a crime against God. their creator. The Mosaic laws show that animals have their rights, divinely given, which man is morally bound to respect. The Middle West farmers who refused to sell their horses to use on European battlefields did their moral duty. The laws limiting the slaughter of game must be commended. The object and work of the Humane Society are an ornament to civiliza tion. Kindness to animals, which It champions, makes for the greatest and deepest spirit of humanity. A child brought up to be kind to animals has a sympathy and gentleness Instilled PROMHEXT rlH'RCH WORK. EUS A.NO MKFTIMi PLACE OK C'Mlll!iTIA.' CO. VK.NTIO.X. Rev. A.
