sometimes happens through the careless
ness and inhumanity OF the vivisector.
The fact is that this whole vivisection
business is barbarous. It is so offensive to
the moral sense CT the community that it
is carried on behind closed doors. and sta
tistics are almost unobtainable. If. as
has been pretended. the good done to hu-
manity overbalanees the suffering OF the
tortured animals. then it should proceed
openly. and convince the people of that
fact. In that way those who hold extreme
views on either side would be checked.
and there could be open and fair-minded
argument. Moreover. the people. who have
a direct interest in this subject would be
able to judge nationally what the effect of
the practice is likely to be. There is al
ready more than a suspicion among in
telligent people that this greed for expert
ment upon living tissue. no matter what
misery 1t may cause, leads unscrupulous
scientists 10 use patients in public hos

The query naturally suggested by such a
remark is. How does the writer know this?
Has he ever been a rabbit. or 2 dog. or
monkey. that he is so sure that the lower
animals dread death more than anything
else? It is true that they are extremely
tenacious and determined in their fight for
life. but that is probably due to the fact
that they wish to be free from pain. and
bIain-impressiOns transmitted through
countless generations go to make them
ieel that death is accompanied by great
pain, as. indeed, it generally is in the case
Of wild animal. Ernest Seton -Thomp-
son has said that "the life Of a wild crea-
ture always ends in a tragedy is.

species. or in a fight with its own kind.
But II an animal could reason about the
thing at all. he would doubtless prefer
quick death to the torture of vivisection
followed by death. and no one can be alb
sOlutely certain that he does not reason on
the subject after his fashion. There have
been few cases of animal suicide. or

The Herald says that a man will
always. or nearly always, choose to un-
dergo a painful surgical operation rather
than lose his life, and seems 70 think that
the lower animals will reason in the same
way. This logic lfmps badly In the first
place there is no parallel between the two
cases. The man submits 20 the operation

The Superintendent of Public Schools
makes the statement that there is need

in the bill before the subcommittee OF the
House OF Representatives At present the
halliday system prevails in the lower
school grades. It is also recommended
that night schools be established in vari-
Gus localities. and that kindergarten
privileges be extended.
It ought to be plain TO any person
capable Of thought that these demands are
reasonable. II is a disgrace to the nation

think that the amount administered is
hardly large enough TO DO any one much

apocryphal story OF the Indian and the
