ANIMALS PROTECTION.
What Agent Perry says of the societ,


1.-THE Maiue State Society for the Pro-
lection of Animals is now % years old, -
said AGENT Eten N. Perry Saturday
Ell hat is, the movement for the proteo
tion of animals in this state has been
going on for 20 years and is regarded a
great desl differently now than it was
when the movement began"
The Maine State Society for the Pro-
lection of Animals grew out of local
society which was formed in Portland
in 1872. Peopls did not understand
the reed for such an Organization at that
time and it was generally REGARDED as the
freak Of peculiar people. The mem bers
were believed to be sentimental old men
and women, and the agents power was
limited.
But gradually public sentiment began
to change in regard to this society, and
today there is more interest in this
work In the back towns i'll the state
than there was in Portland when it was
first started here. Today the society
has 900 members in the state and 60
agents. The work of the society is gener-
ally respected to-day, its work being car
ried on in systenat manner, and
within the next ear it will broaden out
oonsi erably and take in parts of the
state that have not before been reached.
