S.P. C. A. ON A WHITE HORSE.

ride, ride to Bamberry Cross
And see an old woman ride on a white
horse"
says the old nursery rhyme, but to-
day there was no need of seeing a wo-
man on a white horse, or going to
Bamberry Cross, either. The white
horse was ridden by Agent O'Leary,
of the Society for Prevention of
Cruelty to Animals, and the white
horse was kindly loaned for the occa-
sion by the owner, Mrs. Robert Moss.
chairman of the executive committee
of the S. P. C. A. tag day, who had
the great work of today in charge.
The white horse was gaily berib-
boned and betagged. He never was
so decorated in his life, and there
were tags of green, blue and yellow,
not to mention red on his bride and
saddle, his name and tail. In all the
glory of white horse done he paraded
the streets affectionately bowling to
the passersby as if to say: "See my
tagsl This is Tag Day! Help my
cause long and buy a tag,or several
of them"
From early morning until late after
noon the tags were sold by earnest
little children, each vying with the
other in friendly rivalry to win one
of the three prizes offered. One little
girl was most Industrious. She start
ed out with rs tags early and in an hour
or two came back for more. You've
got to get up early to beat the girls,
but some of the boys are hustlers, too.
