MR.. LIONEL c. NOISE,
CARE THE AMERICAN
WEEKLY.
NEW YORK, n. y.
DEAR MR.. NOISE:
THANK you for your very
Il fine article on vivisection
cruelty in the American
Weekly. You are to be COM
mended for bringing this mat
ter TO the attention of animal
lovers all over the country.
Dogs are used in the service
of our country and are being
sent TO battlefrontS in great
numbers and il should be the
duty of our government TO pro-
tect them by outlawing this
vicious practice once and for
all.
Through your article and the
kindness of the Hearst news
papers in publishing these let
tiers, II is my sincere hope
public sentiment writ nc aroused
10 such an extent that our law
makers will be compelled to
take action at once.
shall be glad 10 help in any
way | can. Sincerely yours,
MRS ELEANOR CANNON.

DEAR SIR:
7 DID not read your article on
Il ant i-viviSection because |
can not bring myself To even
read of such cruelty TO the
dearest friend a man can have
his dog. practiced under the
transparent cloak of science,
in the interest of mankind.
Bunk! 1t is a luStful practice
for Sadlsts.
l object TO viviSection in re-
spect 10 any living creature,
but a dog or a horse, the two
animals that know, love, obey
and wait on their masters, as
intelligently as any human be-
ing could, but much more will
ingly, it is inconcelvable.
Also, as progress IS made
against vivisection, which l am
sure it will be. cannot such
sport as the fox hunt" as pic
tured on the picture page a
few months ago in the Hearst
papers, be featured often
enough so as to bring shame on
the state that permits such
sport, and eventually the legis-
lation necessary TO make 1t a
criminal offenSe.
/ wish at this time 10 eX-
tend my SincereSt thanks also
to Mr.. William Randolph Hearst
for his efforts in behalf Of our
friends. the four-legged animals.
and the publicity he has given
to the different tricks that have
been used by the moving picture
industry 10 provide thrills
for the patrons.
What can each individual do
10 advance this movement
against viviSection? Would Sug-
geSt that plenty Of publicity be
given 10 the side which proves
that science has not benefited
by it.
Yours very truly.

DEAR MIR. NOISE:
GOD bless you for what you
" are doing 10 help those
loving sad-eyed dogs and cats.
They steal pets here in Los
Angeles, and we have seen
small barred trucks late at
night and early in the morn
ing. My sister has lost three
puppies and a grown dog, and
they saw one of these small
trucks near. and no more trace
of the dogs. They searched all
the animal shelters, pounds,
etc. Their dogs never ran the
streets and they were stolen
out of their yard.
/ have lived near the uni
verSity and have seen those
dogs in pens behind one of their
buildings. No waHer, as the
tests say: mo water"
My friend worked in an Of
fee next to the place and quit
her position because she could
not stand TO know those Suf-
fering animals were so close
and she could not help them
/ have signed petitions for
years. ! think of those sad, de-
serted dogs that would gladly
die TO save their masters. Why
do they have TO suffer? And so
uSeleSSly.
God will punish them in his
own way. but until then please
do all you can. and / know
some one will help US. wake
UP at night and grieve, for !
alone can do nothing.
Sincerely,
An animal lover and defender,
MRS. MARY FRAZIER.
