KINDNESS To the Ohio Humane Society, Cincinnati: As promised, I enclose my check No. 1670, on the Citizens’ National Bank, Cincinnati, for$15, your order, for the fund for the purchase of the cork leg for the boy you spoke to me about. It affords me much pleasure to be one of the donors to this worthy charity. Wishing you much success in your many noble efforts to relieve distress in all its various phases, Yours sincerely, M. E. MOCH. \\7 E will appreci- ’ “ ate reports of ill-treatment to Chil¬ dren and Animals, with facts, and your iden¬ tity will be safeguard¬ ed. At the same time please give us infor¬ mation of Kind Acts toward Children and to Animals, so that we may commend them. LOWLY but sure¬ ly the American people are growing to realize that the neg¬ lected and untaught children of the present will form a large per¬ centage of the criminal classes of the future. 'T' HE Santa Claus Committee, com¬ posed of members of the Business Aden’s Club Co., of Cincin¬ nati, of which our Secretary-Treasurer is a member, has pur¬ chased from the American Humane Education Society of Boston, 6,000 copies of Black Beauty, Our Gold Mine at Holly- hurst, The Strike at Shane’s, and The Lady of the Robins, for dis¬ tribution to the chil¬ dren of our city at Christmas time.

J»& | | .iOx DEAR FRIENDS: ~ ^ ' Fathers having paid, through this Society, for the j support of their minor children, $61,511.00, the past . year, we feel that the Children’s Department is doing excellent work. We must now renew the equipment, in the Animal Department, which has seen active sendee for the past twenty years. We feel that we must have a new ambulance for the removal of sick and injured horses; a water-wagon for the benefit of drivers and horses during the hot weather; a sand-spreader to sprinkle the slip¬ pery surface of the streets during the winter; an automobile for officers in the Animal Department being out of the question, due to cost, we should have two motor-cycles in order that the officers may be able to cover the field repeatedly and effectively. Will you kindly assist us financially to secure these proposed improvements? I should be perfectly willing to call upon you personally, if you so desire, and explain in detail. Thanking you, Very respectfully, THE OHIO HUMANE SOCIETY, Oscar A. Trounstine, Sec’y and Treas. HUMANE OFFICERS DRUMMOND AND BROTHERS.

I would not frown at folly, solemn-wise, And be content shrewdly to criticize. Give me the wide philosophy that finds In each poor jest and antic something good ; Show me the tie that me to others binds, That makes men lovable, when understood, Too long, I’ve had the narrower wish to be Clad in the garb of cold austerity. Give me a faith ; just for each common day. Not in vain things beyond my ken and care; Let me believe that down life’s darkest way The grime and dust hide something good and fair. Let me find something in each sordid scene Of hidden good that is, or might have been. —Louis Dodge, in Youth’s Companion.

I S life worth living? We'l it depends On how you look at it day by day, On the manner in which you treat your friends And the flowers you plant along the way. On the pane of glass you’re looking through. Whether it cloudy be or clear, On the thoughts you set yourself to brew, And the things that come with the passing year. Is life worth living? It’s up to you, As you travel the road to make it so, For no thistle bloom from a rose yet grew, Or no sunlight comes from the dark below; If you scatter the flowers along the way, Walk you must in their shining light, But scatter the seeds of a sorrow gray, And the clouds will gather as dark as night. Is life worth living? The answer lies In your heart of hearts. Have you made it so? Have you brought hot tears to a woman’s eyes, Sown poisonous weeds where the flowers should grow Have you scattered flowers along the way, Or sown the seeds of discontent? Have you bravely battled with wrong or doubt, Or sulked as did Achilles in his tent ? To him who lives as a man should live. And who walks each day in the clear, white light. Who forgets an injury and forgives. And who does each day what he thinks is rieht. This life with all its sorrow and care, Is, after all, one grand, sweet song. With its summer days that are warm and bright, And its winter nights that are cold and long. ■ Z y .’ >3>C- EaOO !' h 3 h 3 >< 3 > C M 3 H C >< 3 H A < 3 K 3 >< 3 M 3 K A < 3 K 3 >< 3 > C > C H A < S H 3 >{ 3 }< 3 >< 3 }, '-3 >< 3 >< 3 >< 3 >< v' > v > ' { 3 M 3 > C K 3 M 3 >t 3 >< 3 }{ 3 > '3 >< 3 > ' t § H 3 > A < 3 >< v M S H 3 >< v >< 3 >{ v > ' i c >< i >< 3 >< 3 >< 3 > 3 >< 3 m E > UR Society needs people generous enough to become annual subscribers, interested f o 9 , !

What contribu¬ tion are you going to make of your strength, your time, your influence, your money, your self, to make a cleaner, fuller, happier, larger, nobler life possible for some of your fellow men? I do not ask how you are going to do it. You may do it in business, in the law, in medicine, in the ministry, in teaching, in literature. But this is the question: What are you going to give personally to make the human life of the place where you do your work purer, stronger, brighter, better and more worth living? That will be your best part in the warfare against vice and crime .—Henry Van Dyke. A ND the Ohio Humane Society is after the deserting husband with a pointed prod. Under a law i ecently enacted in Ohio, the society has been able to follow the defaulter, no matter if he goes to California. It has materially interfered with the habit of some men to drop a family so soon as that family gets large enough to interfere with papa’s pleasure. Last year the society chased so many defaulters to earth that $65,000 were paid into its hands, to be paid over to needy wives and children .—Herbert Corey, Neiv York. <0HgK§K§K$K§HgK3HgH$KgH$HgH$>tg><$><3>lgH«>4g» 3><2k; J. «■ i. mm What Is Sunshine?

In appealing for horse vacations the more it can be shown that a little carefully planned rest in the country for the faith¬ ful horse is a profitable investment, the more nearly will horse vacations become general. You will meet often with the type that says: “Better wait until hard-working men and women get vacations, with pay, be- for you proceed with your horse vacation scheme.’' There is a little justice in the cry. But the human who toils has a voice. He doesn’t go through life followed by fear. That is what makes the average horse travel. He has felt the lash and does his best to keep one step ahead of it. Does the aver¬ age driver say to himself: Are my horses fit to work today? They have to work. In pursuance of the horse vacation idea in Cincinnati, we sent out 5,000 circulars that read as follows : “In the interest of humanity and kindness to faithful servants we are calling your attention to what has been named in the public prints, HORSE VACATIONS. It is a move to secure for hard-worked horses at least TWO WEEKS annually, in pasture, free from work of any kind, and with a sufficiency of good food. We believe such a move is justified, not only on the grounds of humanity, but as a dividend investment. The horse that is allowed to rest in pasture will live longer and do more work and keep in better condition than the animal that is denied this treatment. “Are you interested ? Can you offer any suggestions ? Will you agree to send one or more of your horses to pasture for the two weeks period? If so will you kindly fill out the card and mail it to us? Your act may influence some other person to do the same. We have the names of several owners of pastures on file in our office. Very sincerely, It is not asking too much for our good and faithful friends, our poor relation's, if you will, a few days of freedom, a little better food, a chance to forget fear and forsake the heavy load. SOME LETTERS RECEIVED. Cincinnati, O., June, 1912. The Ohio Humane Society, Cincinnati: Gentlemen —Your circular letter for the month of June received. It has always been our custom to give our horses a vacation, especially those that are not in first-class condition, either from sickness, sore feet, etc. We have some at pasture now and expect one back on Wednesday, and had five returned May 26th that are just about ready for their usual work now, that were sent out May 12th, which gave them two full weeks in the country. We feel that a horse is like the average individual, who can do more and better work after a little rest in the summer. Yours very truly, The Queen City Coal Co., J. A. Reilly, Mgr. I am in favor of the Horse Vacation Move and will send my horse to pasture for four weeks. We love our horse next to my wife. James S. Moore, Cor. Loth and St. Joe, City. I send all my horses to pasture for two weeks as soon as I can spare them. In the meantime I watch over them as if they were my children, for I love them too much to see them treated wrong. Israel Hurtig. «$> <3»^$ > ^^ < 3 k 3 h $ k S k S*E w v k 3 h 3 w £ > < ♦» SOME LETTERS RECEIVED. ( Continued. ) We are in receipt of your letter and postal, and in reply wish to say that we are in full sympathy with your cause. We believe that a dumb brute should have the same sort of treatment that a human being should have, and we would not tolerate any man in our employe to ill-treat our horses. As stated upon your postal, we have turned our horses out for a month, believing that they are entitled to the same consideration as mankind. You have our best wishes for success and with kindest regards, we remain, Yours very truly, The Queen City Varnish Co., C. H. Wordell, Vice-President and Treasurer. We are in favor of the Horse Vacation Move and have sent fifteen horses to pasture for several weeks, and will send in a number of install¬ ments, as many more as we can—certainly all of those that require it. The Cincinnati Transfer Co., C. S. Bailey, Mgr. We are heartily in favor of allowing our horses a vacation. We take extra good care of them, having our stable all screened to keep the flies out, but believe the horses are entitled to a vacation as well as a man. The J. E. McCracken Supply Co. Mrs. Frances Hinkle died in May, 1911. I am glad to say that her children have seen to it that her horses have been placed in a country home, to remain there for a peaceful happy old age. Thornton M. Hinkle. We always do. Our horse is just as deserving in the matter of a vacation as any other employee who “makes good.” The Ross-Moyer Mfg. Co., W. F. Harmon, Sec. Our horse has just been brought back from a month's vacation on pasture, and is much better for the change. We have given him a month’s rest each year for the last five years. It is money well spent. The King Mfg. Co. I am a great believer in giving horses a rest each year. Have fol¬ lowed this principle ever since I have been in business; started in 1896. J. J. Castellini. It has been my practice for a number of years to send my horse at pasturing for 4-8 weeks at Pfau's, Hartwell, Ohio. Choosing the month of April. Dr. Chauncey D. Palmer, Avondale. I am in favor of the Horse Vacation Move, and have sent two horses to pasture for four or more weeks. We horse owners talk of having our vacation, of our families having theirs, why shouldn’t our money earners have theirs, they who make it possible or us to have ours? John A. Potts, 1925 S. Auburn Ave. AS WE FIND THEM. I am in favor of the Horse Vacation Move, and will send forty horses to pasture for three weeks each. J. J. Sullivan & Co., J. E. Sullivan. We sent about twenty of our horses to pasture about two weeks ago, and expect to send some more later. The Marmet Coal Co. I will send several horses to pasture for several weeks or months, according to requirements. I operate, as far as I know, the only drayage stable working under “a nine-hour day” contracts, a great benefit for all concerned. Improves vitality and speed. Respectfully, L. E. Schuch. We have been doing this for a good many years. The Wm. Miller Range and Furnace Co., 125 and 127 East Fifth St., City. We have ten horses in pasture, and when they come in will send ten more. Queen City Livery Co. I will send all my horses to pasture for one month. We feed with best feed and use rubber shoes, and believe in a square deal for the horse. Excellent Laundry, Thomas Weile, Mgr. take the paint My horse gets four weeks in pasture every summer. I arrange to my vacation at that time, and to have my buggy overhauled and aint shop, so there is nothing lost by the arrangement. Dr. J. J. Cook I will send twelve to fifteen horses to pasture for two or more weeks. We find it is the only way to keep in good condition. The Cincinnati Ice Co., Harry Otto, Supt.

There are but few who seem able to grasp the true meaning of the responsibilities involved in the keeping of that wealth,—not in hoarding up, but in the discrimination of “to have and to hold.” It is an astonish¬ ing fact that no man or woman of wealth is able to answer the exact estimate of their possessions which more often an unjust public exaggerates in its supposition just as it is willing to dictate as to its distribution. Every person of wealth is more or less a philanthropist, perhaps not always at heart, but more often through compulsion than voluntarily. Many in turn are possessed of that duty which calls for willing assistance in any emergencies. Some allow themselves to become misers, others to become extravagant. It was Bob Ingersoll who declared: “Strew the flowers while living as the dead cannot see.” This brings forcibly to one’s mind the many bequests left to various institutions which, through unlooked-for litigations, absorb the said legacies or reduce them into shadows. It always occurs through some never known lost distant relative of the deceased, who pops up at the opportune time to claim their supposed share to estates which the dead cannot deny and the living never knew. It is these occurrences which are a calamity in this country and have become the eye-sore and bane of those endowed with wealth. When P. D. Armour, capitalist and philanthropist, claimed that his charities must be distributed with his living eye and hand, he set an example worthy to be followed, certainly one of sure results. This method, although plausible, can¬ not be carried out by many with less wealth, but I mean to imply that our charities can be given or formulated some way, either legally or by gifts while we are living, to make our intentions reach those we expect to benefit rather than bequeathed to uncertain conditions. It is _ a deplorable fact that America today faces a condi¬ tion adverse to those possessing wealth or in the pro¬ tection of it. It means a handicap either way and one not easily remedied. We seem to forget that art, music, hospitals and other various institutions owe their very existence to these swollen fortunes. The man of wealth in America today fears to acknowledge openly his financial condition or is forced to face the consequences of being victimized, either through blackmailing or imposters who ply for the opportu¬ nities in their demands. We seem to pity the poor man or woman in their different tribulations, but does not the rich man stand completely alone when facing his adversities and without any sympathy whatever from the public which he previously served as a man and master. And this brings one back to the strong necessity of becoming humanized or humane in our commercialism as well as in our deeds and actions, by which alone we can reach the rewards according to our merits, and efface the impressions which colors itself in a taint so often attributed to those possessing wealth.

If the uncared for dog is not to be allowed to slowly starve until too weak to resist disease, why in the name of logic should we let the alley cat to suf¬ fer throughout the course of its whole nine lives ?

Worcester vm The Ohio Humane Society: The folders, “A Plea for Kindness,” were de¬ livered to me this morning. We have already begun to use them in our Public School system for supplementary reading, and the children seem to enjoy it thoroughly. Is it not better to teach the child— “Oh, the blithest of sights in the world so fair Is a gay little pup with his tail in the air!” than the memorizing of Thanatopsis, the beauty and philosophy of this “Ode to Death,” surely no child under thirty can understand?
