Last Sunday's New York Times con tained the following which -will be of Interest to folks who know the af fectionate welcoming of a dear dog'a thumping tail, the comfort of a cuddly kitten or the loving caress of a sleek necked horse. "On Tuesday afternoon many promi nent women will assemble at the Rltz to play bridge to aid the New York Woman's League for Animals in their splendid work. Last week the rich dogs gave a show all their own for the benefit of the poor dogs. "If all the stray dogs and cats and underfed and overworked horses around town could realize what society with the capital S is doing for them they would have something to look forward to care, nursing and a nice warm home, as did the glad little crippled girl in the story book. All this the league does for the animals Injured and adrift In a big city. "Naturally women are only too glad to help the animals, and Mrs. E. T. Siraondetti has received much en couragement for the coming bridge, which promises-to be a smashing suc cess. Mrs. William P. Ketcham, Mrs. George Bethune Adams and the Misses Jean W.

Four-footed little beggars roaming the city street; Snatching a bone from the gutter, creeping through alleys drear. Stoned at and sworn at and beaten, our hearts consumed with fear. Are your hearts too hard to listen to a starving kitten's cries. Or too cold- for the patient pleading in a dog's beseeching eyes? Behold us,.your little brothers, starven, beaten, opprest! Stretch out a hand to help us that we may have food and rest. Golden Wedding Celebrated On the evening of February 8. from 7 to 11, at their home in Winnabo-. Mr. and Mrs. Edwin Taylor gave a T" There's a Charm to the New Spring Suits And it is a charm that's more than cloth' deep.
