- Humane education and practice is

citizenship. That humane treatment of all living creatures
deserves the maximum of consideration) is the declaration of
th nation's chief executive. It is and lias been. a. causeT close
to tlie heart of truly great men and is increasing in interest
and application with the march of civilization. A few years
ago the employment of janimals trained and performing under
cruel treatment and under fear was sn amusing spectacle
for men and women, boys and girls. But this condition has
been changed, j ;
Humane societies have sprung up,
come national in their operation and influence. The righteous
ness of their cause has been recognized by legislatures and
municipalities and their efforts to obtain kindly treatment
for children and for dumb creatures are supported even from
the public treasure. Their work has been and is now out
standing in accomplishment. 11 -
A single example lof the results of humane effoctand
change of public sentiment is the recent action ol Ringling
Brothers circus management who have; eliminated this year
frnm their nrocrram those acts in which animals have for
merly played an unwilling part. The elimination of the danc
ing monkey and the hand organ outfit is also in' response ap
peal and education.
Kindness o children, to pets, to eVery living creature is
the slogan of every school. It is the demand of every worthy
citizen. ! :
The effect of cruelty to animals is td dull the sympathies,
increase indifference, leaden the emotions and make more
brutal the individual. ; Cruelty inflicted upon the kitten, the
dog, house bird or other living creature makes easier inflic

I think so," I said, pretending
diffidence. But in reality! I was
very sure of every word enclosed
in the yellow envelope which
meant so much to Bob Bliss. Al

he said ungraciously, and I com

"Much worrying you'd do over
anybody, young i woman," Dicky
retorted as he went: into; the hall.
And when the closing door had
given a I! period to his; words, II

Claire's the secret I of the jinde

I could; not have born 'the strain

Dicky came in, even though my

I had hard work to repress a
smile at his ludicrous exaggera

gleefully.
"If you could only see how
funny you look!" she gurgled, j
"Glad I'm amusing you," he
said stiffly, and then he sat down
and pulled the letters from his
pocket once more.
"There's only - one think I can
do," he! said. 'Til telephone a

MEOWS FROM The CAMPUS CAT
Dear Ed.: '
The question of kissing came
up last night, as it will you know,
among young girls. Harriet, who
graduates in June from Wellesley,
quite shocked little Lola,: '27,
by admitting that she had been
kissed by a young man whom she
only met that afternoon.
"But Hattie," gasped Lolaf,
.- you ougntt not let strange men
kiss you." ,
"Nonsense," said Harriet, "any
ope can be kissedby men they
know; the new ones require tech-
naque.
Lola became interested!
how otten tio you let a young
man kiss you in an evening?" she
asked. j
"That," said Harriet, "depends
entirely on his self-control.. This
poor boy only: kissed me once and
then looked fearfully embarrassed
and said I was,, the first girl he
had ever kissed. Imagine! I told
him I was inclined to believe him."
"But what do you do? what do
you say, when a man kisses you?"
asked the bewildered Lola. "You
must say something!"
"Not at all." said Harriet, crisp
ly, "Just keep your mouth shut.
Never try to talk In clinches."
Perhaps it's just as well that
Harriet graduates in June, eh Ed?
Not that I think you are interested
in the subject of kisses, because of
course you're not! Me-ow. .meow.
