“BE KIND TO ANIMALS WEEK”
Is Being Observed Throughout the
Country.
The following item is therefore
timely:
How One Woman Helped.
Editor Our Dumb Animals:
A few days ago, while a boy was
leading several horses along a slip
pery street, one of them, becoming
frightened, jerked loose from his rope
halter, and ran onto the pavement.
He fell on the icy sidewalk, rose, and
fell again, but struggled to his feet
though his hip was injured. The
young driver, leaving the other horses
alone, went to help him back, but the
nervous animal refused to walk, fear
ing another fall. A Colored woman,
from her doorway, called to the boy
to wait a minute. Soon she brought
a box of ashes which she spread
around the horse’s feet. Getting an
other box, and telling the young man
to lead the horse, she walked ahead,
sprinkling the ashes in front of him.
Finding firm footholds, the horse
walked back to the waiting group.
One who witnessed this incident
praised the woman for her kind and
sensible act. She replied that her
heart ached for the poor horses, ill
treated by ignorant and often cruel
drivers, and that she did all that she
knew how to relieve their suffering
or to prevent it. When questioned
she answered that she would be glad
to give humane literature where it
was badly needed, and expressed a
wish to join the S. P. C. A. When
taught how, this kind woman will
form Bands of Mercy among those
whom it is difficult for others to
reach.
The humane cause needs many such
ardent, sensible workers.

IN MEMORY OF MARIK LAWRIE
For many years I’ve had a friend,
A friend so dear to me,
That when I think of her today
It makes me sad as sad can be.
FoF years she was my schoolmate,
As up life's path we trod,
For years she was my playmate,
And now, she’s 'neath the sod.
She was a girl beloved by all,
As happy as a lark was she,
And every home she entered,
She w'as welcome as could be.
Every day to her was pleasant,
And she always wore a smile,
Life to her and those about her^
Always seemed to be worth while.
Now, having left us for a while,
Though linger long we may,
We’re bound to meet her once again
Upon the Judgment Day.
Rest thou peacefully friend Marie,
Until we meet above,
And sing again as oft before,
The triumph song of love.
—Madeline Roberts.
Ask your neighbor if he is a sub
scriber to The Monitor? If he isn’t,
he ought to be.
