PEOPLE AND THINGS
Homo OF Humane union.


Philadelphia is the home or the Young
American Humane Union. the first So
clety OF the kind organized in this coun-
try 1t began as a small society in a
grammar school. the principal being It's
president.
Boys were taught to read humane lit
erature: to sing suitable songs: to have
courage 90 DO right; 10 practice habits
OF kindness: 10 appreciate dumb animals.
and 10 reverence the aged.
Soon there were seven unions IN the
grammar schools and in three years more
than 5000 were enrolled as members. From
Il sprang the Band OF Mercy and bands
were organized IN Sunday schools and In
boys institutions. as well as in the pub
lie schools. The reading rooms and the
library Of the Young American Humane
Union, to which members have free ac-
cess, affords center of influence as well
as a means Of doing good by its carefully
chosen books. The terms Of admission
are signing the pledge. Il will try 20
be kind TO all living creatures and will
try 20 protect them from cruel usage"
During a large part OF the year monthly
meetings are held at which talks on
humane subjects are made by prominent
citizens. on these occasions the read
ing OF original compositions by boys is
always an attractive feature
Censorship of Moving PIctures.
The wisdom CT the police regulation or
censorship Of moving picture exhibitions
in New York City is Illustrated by a
tragedy at Burlington. n. J. A boy there
attempted to enact a portrayal he had
seen Of a Western hold-up. with the re-
suit that a little girl was killed. The pO-
lice Of several Aries are looking with In
creasing scrutiny into these exhibitions,
which are capable OF innocent and in
structive entertainment. instead Of merely
sensational exhibitions. They have sup
pressed IN a number OF instances the rep
reservations Of murders and other crimes
Ultimately. Il is public opinion that Will
afford the best censorship. as Il does OF
