NOTES FROM THE HUMANE SOCIETY Next National Convention ^he nexit annual convention of the National American Humane Societies will be held at Portland, Oregon, in September, 1926. The national officers and delegates are carrying on a great and progressive work in their offorts to reduce crue lty and needless suffering to a min imum. Teach Children To Be Kind One of the most important things to teach children is to take good care of their household pets; to remember to feed them and to give them water to drink at regular times if possible. k\> We are only doing right if we treat ' every living creature as we would wish to be treated ourselves. If you drive a horse think how you would like to be treated if you were that horse. Treat your dog and cat as you would like to be treated if you could change places with them. Kindness on the farm gentle treat ment of cows: good bedding, good food and a stall large enough to lie down in, for the horse; shelter for the swine; proper food and care of poultry all repay the farmer in dol lars and cents. Try it. The Covered Wagon At the time this picture was filmed there was published in the humane and general press, statement that the author of the historical novel, Mr. Hough, on which the scenario is founded had protested against need less cruelty to animals in the picture horses, cattle and buffalo and had been denied admission to the grounds where the picture was taken. Re ports were later published contain ing a statement ire-:-; h s secret:', v denying that Mr. Hough ever made such complaint The Humane Re cord of Chattanooga, Tenn., prints following sworn statement of Ellis Soper which is reproduced from the Christian Science Monitor, of Bost on. "About six months before his death, Emerson Hough spent an evening at the apartment of the writer at 41 West Fift ? ? Second Street, New York, during which Mr. Hough related several of his experi ences. Naturally the subject of the 'Covered Wagon' arose, and Mr. Hough made the statement at that time that he very much objected to the maiming and killing of the ani mals during the filming of the pic ture, and because of his objection he was refused admittance to the lot during the filming of some of the scenes." Killing the Farmer's Friend A rural mail carrier shot a hawk on the road the other day and when he went to pick it up. the supposed dead bird took a peck that put ou. his eye for which no one can blame the hawk, says the Salem, Oregon, Capital Journal. This federal employe broke sever al laws and regulations. It is aga inst rules to carry a gun on duty, while delivering mail It i? a vioi - tion of the state law to shoot on a public highway. A hawk is one of the most beneficial of birds and one of the farmer's best - friends, daily destroying its weight in vermin, and as it is useless as food, there is no J justification in its slaughter. 1 As a result of similar wanton slaughter of eagles, hawks and awls, | all birds that justify their existence, [ the balance o fnature has been des ' stroyed and a great increase in rab bits, gophers and mice is caus ing an economic loss to every farmer in the land. All of these birds should be protected by law to pre vent their extermination, which is now threatened. Stopped All Traffic In New York a back alley cat , decided to move her family of five kittens across the street. She was so well known that Officer Cudmore stopped all traffic and motor cars while she carried the five kittens safely across. The world pauses sometimes when the American sense of kindness is appealed to. A Fit Punishment Judge Stadter of Portland, Oreg on. imposed a fine of $50t) for cruelty to animals and six months imprisonment, in the case of a man dragging a collie dog to death behind his automobile. Such a sentence will bring him to an understanding that even a dumb brute has a right to b( killed without unnecessary cruelty. Bulldogging Is Cruel At Pendleton, Chicago and othe: places where so-called roundups an< rodeos are conducttd it is claime< there is no cruelty in the stunt callex "bul!d[ogging; a steeit." Quite th< contrary true. "Bulldogging" steer: was never a legitimate part of th< cowboy's occupation. It consists oi twisting the animal's neck, pinning it to the ground and holding it by imbedding the teeth in its lower lip. As a public exhibition it is commer cial cruelty, premitted and perform ed only by those who are nidiffer ent and insensible to animal torture. Humane Bequests Those who advocate kindness to all living creatures, and are praying and working in the great national education campaign all forms of cruelty to animals, should remember the Humane Societies in making their wills. Miss Anita Coakles, a teacher in the Columbus, 0., public schools, was discharged for spanking a 10-year old boy pupil. Manufactured in Wilmington, N. C., a "knocked down" house was transported to Miami, Fla., in ten airplanes and there set up. More than $10,000 worth of frogs have been shipped this winter from Portage, Wis., to Florida for stock ing mosquito-infested lakes. Radio has been banned from dor mitories at Goucher College, Balti more, because it keeps the girls up too late at night. Mrs. Mary Tinkleman of Philadel phia was arrested for making re marks about a neighbor woman's short skirts. Since its establishment in 1886 the Moody Bible Institute has trr> ined 1,252 men and women for mis sionary work. When the wife of Pat McCloon of Dublin bobbed her hair, he tied her up and shaved her head. Baby Chicks In order that I may get what baby chicks I want from my own yard all at one time, I have carefully selected and mated about 400 of my ver ybest hens.

AMMON, Farm Demonstrator. Brevard, N. C. ^ IMPROVED UNIFORM INTERNATIONAL fenday School ? Lesson 1 ? By REV. p. B. F1TZWATER, D.D.. Ds?d of the Evening Sctiovl, Moody Bible In stitute of Chicago.) '(?. 1926, Western Newspaper Unloa.) Lesson for February 21 JESUS RAISES LAZARUS FROM THE DEAD indeed to lie we are united to the living Christ, the source of life, and that this Is a pledge of bodily resurrection and eter nal reunion. VI. Jesus Weeping With Mary (vv 28-35). Mary fell at Jesus' feet, uttering the same words used by Martha, but no doubt with a different tone of voice and attitude, ller words were respond ed to with Ills tears? "Jesus wept." He is now a sympathizing Savior; Hp can be touched with the feelings of our infirmities (Heb. 4:15). VII. Jesus Raising Lazarus lrv. 38-44). His great sympathy now expresses itself in supernatural power. Sympa thy would be valueless without this connection with divine power. In this stupendous miracle we sec an illustra tlon of the quickening into life of those dead in trespasses and sin. Observe: 1. He Was Dead (v. 39) This is a type of the sinner dead in trespasses and sins, even morally corrupt (Eph. 2:1). 2. The Stone Must Be Rolled Away (v. 39). This is the part that the human must play. 3. Martha's Protest of Unbelief (v. 39). She insisted that Lazarus had al ready undergone putrefaction. 4. Christ's Intimacy and Fellowship With the Father (v. 42). In His prayer lie declared that It was not for Ilis sake that He prayed, bot for those who stood by. 5. Christ's Manner of Dealing With Lazarus (v. 43). It was by a call. He Is calling men and women today by His Spirit, Word and providence. 6. The Response of Lazarus (v. 44). This shows that the call of Jesus Is with authority and power. With the call goes the power to heal anil obey. 7. The Command to the People (v. (*4). They were to remove the grave clothes and set him free. VIII. The Effect of This Miracle (vv. 45-57). 1. Some Relieved (v. 45). 2. His. Enemies Sought to l'ut Him to Death (vv. 46-53). 8. His Withdrawal (v. 54). The Soul of Religion Always remember that sincerity is the very soul of religion. A single in tention to please God and to approve ourselves to Him must anfmate and govern all that we do. ? Philip Dodd ridge. Holiness Holiness is religion shining. It is faith gone to work. It is charity coined into actions, and devotion breathing eoedictions on human suffering. ? Bishop Huntington. "OUR HIRED MAN" Our Uncle Rob came driving in the yard today with two Jenny mules hooked to the spring wagon. He calls it his horseless carriage. No one can talk Uncle Rob out of using those mules the year round. He takes just as much pride in them as when they used to shy at automo biles. The way they always look shows how much he thinks of 'em. We had a deep thaw last week. That was a lucky thing for the boss My hands are all blistered fron' MBBtin the post-hole auger. The Hs says he's surprised, a top ha:: ? me getting blisters this time of rhe boss looked out at the slough t he's going to tile this spring and d r too bad that ain't in Florida." Anyway, hte hogs enjoy the corn paiion.
