REMEMBER THE ANIMALS.
Kindness to Animals Week, is Being
Celebrated This Week, April
10 to 81.

Amid the shock OF war declaration,
the regular interests of life seem
small and trifiing. Yet our ordinary
lines of civic and humane work must
go on for many day before peace is
declared So in this moment of tur-
mol, attention should be called to
Kindness to Animals Week, April 16
to 81.
This observance was started two
years ago by the Humane societies,
chiefly for the educational work in
the schools. Every owner of a do
nestle animal should Of course
celebrate Kindness to Animals Week
for % weeks in a year. But to get
the attention of children, a special
observance like this is useful.
Daily life is full of maltreatment
or animals. People don't desire to
inflict suffering, but they simply
don't think. And it seems strange in
particular, that an animal that per-
forms so much of the worlds hard
work as the horse, should so often be
the worst neglected. The business
welfare of the owner depends on
Keeping him well. But too frequent
~ he is an i'll fed starveling. and Of
ten sufferer from heat and cold.
Children should be taught to feel
affection for dumb beasts. They
should be shown how with a little
kind care, they can win the friend
ship OF these animals. BY thought
full attentions they can develop a
personal tie of affection with an ami
NAL like the horse, who under such
care becomes more docile and ready
for his tasks.
Once a child's eyes are opened to
study of animals, he gets a new in
terest in the world. He finds pleas
ure in the comfort and well being of
these members of the family, and
feels indignation at neglect and
abuse. If these ideas can be thor
oughly instilled into the minds of
the children, the next generation
will get more efficient service out
of these laborious helpers, and it will
enjoy their companionship more.

FOR PREPAREDNESS
Question of Food Supplies Uppermost
in Peoples Minds Now.

Preparedness is not simply a mat
ter of guns and ammunition and mil
itary training. 1t is also a question
of food supplies. These are short in
the United States and the fighting
countries now.
In hearing appeals for Prepared
ness to resist foreign invasion,
most people think it means necessar-
lily some big thing. They suppose
they are asked to enter training
camps or enlist in the army. If they
can't do that, they settle back, and
conclude they can do nothing toward
the cause.
There are many sides of Prepared
ness other than the strictly military
phases of it. 1t means national eff
cheney along a thousand lines. The
man who raises food products helps
in very vital way toward this end.
He is providing one of the first re-
quisites toward military power. Even
if he grows only enough vegetables to
supply his family, by so doing he
avoids depicting the general stocks.
If there could be this summer a
general cultivation of back yard gar.
dens and vacant lots, it would help
tremendously in the present war sit.
uation that we confront, 1t would
reduce the price of supplies to the
army We shall have to raise. 1t
would make us a much greater force
in the settlement of this conflict.
With an abundant food supply at
moderate prices, we are in a very
powerful position, and the nations
will sue for our favor.
The enormous amount of good
land lying idle in this country is a
testimony to national sloth and ineffi-
cheney. So let every man who is able
get his spade and his hoe and his
seed, and prepare to do his bit in the
garden.

POLO
TEAM MAY PAY
A VISIT TO u. S.

The probability Of series Of inter-
national polo matches in this country
during the coming summer will be an
important subject for discussion at the
annual meeting of the Polo Association,
20 be held in this city February H..
The proposition has been informally
discussed among polo enthusiasts, for
II is known that there is an excellent
chance that n team from Argentine Will
invade the United States. with n more
remote possibility that Spain may also
follow suit.
The only obstacle which appears TO
stand in the way Of the visit of fast
combination of players and mounts
from the South American republic is
the difficulty of securing direct trans
portation at the proper time Of the
wear. According 10 communications
which have passed between the North
and South American players the inn
precision prevails that the invading
poloists would he obliged 10 make the
trip 10 this country via England.
II n can he found that the Argentine
team and ponies can make satisfactory
steamship connections direct 10 New
York. the other arrangements are but
minor details.
