Pet Animals Sold for Charity.

In these days, when nearly every
body in Britain is giving up something
to the cause of the war, pet animals
have played prominent part as a
form of war charity. People have CIV
en- their dogs and cats to charitable
institutions to be auctioned off to raise
money for wounded soldiers. So many
unstable pets have been offered as
to make them burden to the animal
protection societies. At a recent sale
many Of the cats and dogs were SO old,
decrepit and dirty that no bids could
be obtained for them, that they were
handed over to the societies to be
put to death by gas.
