BURMESE FOND OF ANINALs
Characteristic That Might Well 30
Copied by Other Nations More
Highly Civilized.

The Burmese people naturally are
full Of the greatest sympathy toward
animals of all kinds, understand their
ways, and make them feel they are
their friends. And we know that If
person is kind to animals he Is gen.
orally kind to his fellowman.
A Burmese boy would never be al
lowed TO go bird-nestlng, or rafting
with a terrier, or ferreting rabbits.
These would be crimes.
A Burman hates to kill. Neither for
sport, nor for revenge, nor for food,
must any animal be deprived Of the
breath that is In 1t.
All the animals-the ponies, the cat
tie and the working buffaloes are so
tame that it is an almost unknown
thing for anyone TO get hurt You
can walk through the herds of an eve
ming In perfect safety for they will
not attempt to touch you.
Many of our growing boys think It
grand thing to be indifferent TO
pain-not only their own but to that
of all others. To be sorry for wound
ed dog or a hunted hare seems "girly"
to them. But to the Burman kind
ness to animals is the highest Of all
virtues. He believes that nothing Of
great value can exist without com
passion and love and sympathy-that
these make up all that Is most beautl-
full In life.

the Burmese In their dealings with
dumb animals,-The Young Soldier.
