CONSIDER HE ANIMALS

Every year there is in the list of special observances q be-kind-t to- ani- rnals week, a period in which it is ex- pected that extra attention will be given to the many ways in which bet ter treatment should be accorded to the domestic animals.
 For the past fortnight pr longer there has been the kind of weather which should cause any who gieaned ideas from the special efforts in be- half of animals to put them into use During the frigid, snowy and icy weather it was no time to overload the horses, no time to permit them to stand unblanketed for hours at a time and no time to let them go without proper shelter and care. The horsc responds in keeping with the attention that is given him and there is a limit to his endurance. and what is true of the horse is likewise true of other animals If they are worth keepine they should be given proper care and not treated in an inhumane manner because they are unable to accomplish as much under bad conditions as the, are under good.
 It is of course true that much ot the work that was required of horses is now being done by the automobile That there is some means of relieving inc animals during the days Of hart wheeling and bitter cold is cause fo. qualification but the day Of the hors1 is not at an end. He may not be uset so much on the milk route, the groc cry wagon Or the truck but there il still need for his services ant
 wherever he is employed proper con
 sideration should be given to the fac
 that though dumb he has feelings.

Ohio they are so sure of a great fu- ture for apples that they are eXperi- menting on run down orchards and strongly advising farmers to go back to apple growing as a sure road to fortune. They report that dozen

 We would not presume to say that Admiral Sims is right or wrong in his statements concerning naval matters, but we do not hesitate to say he is fundamentally and everlastingly right l when he declares that constructive criticism is the duty of an officer. Ev-
 cry right thinking American citizen ] will concede that fact, whether in the army, the navy or civilian affairs l There is a short sighted and shallow

MEMS LITTLE WAYS

What do you do to patent leather pumps that have got rained on ?'' in-8 quired the bride with deep pathos. when I think what paid for those shoest And they look now. just as though they were ready to break out with the measles or turn into road

 bride.
 .sNo guessing about scientific cause and effect replied her friend. When it is a fine, soppy, rainy night, every married man suddenly wants to go to a theatre. A married man will remain hermeticalIy glued to his chair by the lampside night after night, deaf to the signs and means and greans of his
 bored wife who wants to go out for a change of scene She may eXclaim
 over what a beautiful night It is. she may Haunt her best gown in his face and iffnocently mention that she had a marcel that day and did he ever see her hair look so nice. She may rest her nose against the window
 pain and exclaim over the fact that MT. and Mrs. Jones are just starting out with an opera bag or she may openly ask what plays are in town. ] If she has been married years and years she will disdain all this delicate l subterfuge and come right out with 1 the news that she is dying to go down. town to the theatre.
 ''But whatever she does the result 1 is the same. Her husband merely
 gruflts, sinks deeper into his chair and
 gives an imitation of man bending l his mighty brain to the task of com pretending an epoch-making editorial and daring anyone to interrupt him
 There is absolutely nothing doing.
 If she is young and ignorant she re- tires to her room and Soos, while if she has attained philosophy through i experience she just shrugs and says i Oh, heck, I'd like a good. energetic ] dynamite bomb to set off under that
 mans chair. Anything to make him
 realize there is any one on earth but 1 hinselft"

against liquor, then there would not be the slightest f41drfnuf of dissent
 MT. Blacksmith, I did not mention in my letter anything about the rev enue derived from liquor I believe that that question should not enter into the subject at all. And as for consideration for a drunkard's family. mentioned in my first letter. if you recall, that the foolish man, the man that makes fool Of himself and de- prives his family, and lies in the gutter, and disgusts the passers-B by, is not the real representative of mil lions, by any means. and our laws and courts should be made sufficient to cover his wrong doing, and to prose cute the dealer that persists in selling to him.
 MT Blacksmith you are mis- inform ed about thirty-tWo states going dry, as a result of the referendum. Only fourteen states have the referendum. Where in the world did you locate those false figures of yours?
 If after prohibition (now that it is here), is given a fair trial. and found to be successful, and for the nation s best interests, we will all of us back it up to the limit, and support it.
 However my whole argument is based on the right of the individual not to make nnisancp Of himself, but so to lead his own life. that he may at least feel snne of the benefits of oiir inherited freedom.
 Understand, MT. Blacksmith. am not upholding the drunkard but sim nlv believe that a mans right to in dulge temperately. if he so desires, ought to be unprecedented.
 am for taTnperanee but not for prohibition. Thus ends my newspaper argument on the question. Accept my bindest regards. Mr. Blacksmith, and I promise you I will remain, FAIR MINDED.

MT. Editor: Your article, page B. this mornings Bulletin, headed, What is to be done with Buckingham Memorial, ' alludihg to very important meeting of the post on Wednesday evening, 2Sth inst. omits allusion to the fact that the members of the so called "Cit- izens' Corps are expressly included in the official invitation signed by the commander and adjutant of the post contained in column one. same page.
 As the Citizens corps furnished in large part. the money with which the memorial building was purchased, the invita- ton to them is made emphatic by the words addressed equally to them as to the post: You are cirdially requested to attend.
 As a member of the post I trust the attendance of the members Of the Git izens' corps will be as full as the in Vitation of the post officers is "cer- 1 dial"

No pessent IF Verdict of the People.

NO OSSSE1L IT GFUtSL tftG FGpRtSs
 MT. Editor: believe in the fifteenth century, by crown decree. liquor and intoxicants were abolished in England and after lengthy trial it was found to he decidedly impractical.
 Of course I realize our modern in telligence and good citizenship will overcome any existing prejudice that may finger today, on the part of the -prohibitionist in this matter, and I also realize and believe that prohi- bition cannot remain permanently successful
 And, if you please, Mfr. Blacksmith of Groton, it is true as you stated, that liquor has ruined lots of individ- uals and lots of families, but these cases do not represent the masses, by any manner or means.
 Prohibition, in my belief. Is funda mentally wrong. It interferes with a mans right of free citizenship.
 If this question were left to the peo- pie, as I stated in my first letter. and the people by their own action decided
