Be Kind to Animals
Taught in Schools

Detroit. June S-(Ry A. T)--Peo-
Pile are becoming more humane IN

according to f.. f.. Hutchinson. man.
ager of the Detroit Humane Society.
basing the statement upon personal
observations over period of many
years. and upon letters from those
engaged in similar work in various
cities OF the country.
"There are two reasons for the
success of the humane movement"
Manager Hutchinson said. "The
most important work is being car
ricd on in the public schools. School
children are being drilled from the
kindergarten on, that it is manly
and womanly to he kind to all help
less creatures. AS result boys and
girls are looking out for the inter-
est Of the birds and animals as
never before They personally are
watering and feeding animals in
need of attention and do not hesi-
tate to call to the attention of the
proper authorities any cases OF in
humane treatment they observe.
"The second reason is that men
dealing in animals have discovered
that it pays in dollars and cents to
be humane. Cattle buyers are be-
ginning to insist that the animals
under their charge he humanely
treated To do otherwise decreases
the value OF the cattle and brings
them heavy losses. Some of the
animal dealers now are our warm
est opponents of humane treatment
of animals. They are compelling
their employees to practice this.
"There is still another reason and
that is the American spirit of fair
play. No normal American cares to
injure anything that cannot fight
back"
