CRUELTY IN srnnni s
Now that juvenile delinquency
has become a top problem and
the necessilv for rharor.lot- huiM-
ing in young children is being
stressed, certain T.V. shows de
ciding crime nH IMnlan. ha.,
become a target for many pro
tests. There are few protests so
far, however, against another
demoralizing situation that, In
the field of science teaching, is
undermining the development of
'uuiaiiu aiuiuucs in cnuaren in
uie scnoois.
Through kindergarten and the
first few grades, many schools
do an excellent job in teaching

But as earlv as tha fifth
some teacher. ar rfamnnett-at'
ing principles of nutrition by
Having pupns watcn wnite mice
ii iiaiiisiCTs siowiy die or star
vation. Some teachers permit
the starving process to continue
oniy unui we animals become
perceptibly thin and weak; oth
ers carry on the experiment un-
ui me creatures are acad.
Another "school" pvnprl
consists In having pupils inject
cancer virus into mice or some
olher animal and watch the
rrealure gradually sicken and
die. The result of such an exper
iment is already known in ad
vance; therefore It contributes
nothing new to a scientific
knowledge. It is needless, value
less and cruel.
One of the most harmful fea
tures of tllk respat-fh mAlhnrl
used by immalurc, untrained
youngsters is the encouragement
ime leacncrs give inem to car
ry on CXDorlmenls nf Ihnir Aurn
outside of school. The atrocities
some cnildren are known to have
inflicted on mice, rabbits, pup
pies, kittens and other live ani
mals In the privacy of homes,
with no supervision, are unorinl
able! The Infliction of suffering on
animals in the much abused
name of science has already ex
tended beyond reasonable
hounds. 11 is of vital Importance
that educators and the humane
minded public should demand
that a firm position be taken in
schools to prevent demoraliza
tion of young people through in
fliction of suffering on defense
less animals.
"If increased Interest in sci
ence is to lead merely to greater
callousness the world will not
have moved ahead." New York

So make sure a good part of

one's pocket or purse carry
it to the place of purchase.
Print makes sense because
