SAYS ANIMALS DC REMEMBER
Why Old Idea 10 Wrong Is Proved by
Incidents Related by English
Writer.

have read an article In which q
trapper denies that animals have q
real memory, says a writer in the Lon
don Times. He admitted that most Of
them knew enough to avoid q trap af-
ter an experience or two with il,
but contended that this was merely
Q manifestation Of the self-preserva-
ton instinct.
The same man cited an instance
not at all unfamiliar-of a dogs re-
fusing to hunt with a man. who had
kicked him. He said that this too
was only the instinct Of all living
creatures to avoid injury.
Animals do have memory-at least
some Of them do. The trappers theory
would not explain those many evil
dences Of recollection wherein self
preservation plays no part. I once
carried a fox-terrier into the house
after he had been well-nigh killed by
an automobile. His master had lust
moved into the apartment house, and
l had never seen the dog before that
day. We moved away two days later,
and l did not see the terrier for over
four months. Then one day passed
the house-or was about to do So
when out came that dog. wagging his
stubby tail. He Jumped all over me,
In joyful recognition-and memory.
An amusing story. significant on this
subject, is told by my father. As q
boy he lived on a farm, and was al
ways a close student Of animal nature.
The mare he usually drove was old
and fat, and would never 90 faster
than . walk unless urged. There were
two roads to town, one branching of
from the other and q little shorter. It
had been Old Maud's custom to take
this road, Of her own volition, until on
one occasion vicious dog barked at
her and snapped at her legs. After
that the driver had to be on his guard:
Maud would speed up when about 50
yards from the turn-off and try to get
BY 1t before she could be restrained.
This showed not only memory, but
sense for planning.
