FATE OF CATS IN BALANCE.
"Strays' Have Small Show Unde,
Regulations Proposed for d. C.

The fate of the Washington cat hangs
In balance. with the District Commits
sioners giving consideration to a prop
osition to license" felines and place
them under the same general restric-
tons imposed upon dogs. The cat is
decidedly in bad" with a big portion
of the capitals population and the
Congress of Mothers and Parent-Teach-
ers Associations in particular, which
look upon the feline as disease
spreader as well as nuisance in his
nightly serenades. Just what the Com
mlssioners are going to do about it is a
matter of conjecture, but they have
gone so Tar as to ask the health officer
for his recommendations as to the
licensing proposal.
If it is the opinion of that official that
1t is just as desirable to license cats
as dogs and that the stray ones should
be done away with, a regulation to this
effect doubtless will be promulgated
within a short time.

What can l do for my country
Come on. children. there is message
in this for you today.
There is a suggestion. also. to young
ladies in seminaries and colleges clus-
tered about Washington, and to every
woman of one particular little deed
that she can perform directly for a SOL
der or sailor, helping to make him
comfortable.
In previous articles in this series
general information has been given re-
garding the three broad lines of the ma
tion's defense to meet war conditions
military, Industrial and relief work. At
this time IT seems fitting. when every
body is anxious to do some personal
act, helpful to the nation and it's de-
tenders, that suggestion should be
made regarding what every woman and
every child can do in each home.
All the children can help by collect
ing their games and storing them care
fully away, for the Red Cross is soon
going to ask all of the children of the
country to contribute games for the
sailors on the warships. the soldiers in
camp. and the wounded and sick in
hospitals.
