Kenosha County Humane Society
Annual Report Year of 1918.
Probably the main reason for making
and publishing an annual report is that
humane work needs publicity. While
the Society has never published names
Of individuals nor furnished any infor-
nation that seem libelous, it has been
assumed that the people of the locality
affected should have chance to know
what has been done. Comments from
citizens who thus learn Of the activities
of the Society indicate that the policy
is a good one.
In keeping, therefore, with the usual
custom, am making, first, classified
list of the total number of cases hand
led, and, second more detailed re-
view of certain type of cases.

by drivers ............ 81
