of cruelty TO dumb animals have been
mentioned
The authorities here, as elsewhere,
can do much more if they have 4 hui

the Humane Society can investigate
cases where there would be no
grounds for warrant and in cases
where it is difficult to get policemen
to do their duty.
After consulting with a number
of prominent citizens. l have decided
to call a meeting of all interested par
