(Copyright, 1806, by Amerlcan-Journal
Examiner.)
A LL Boston people with hearts
know of the wonderful work done
by Mm. Huntington Smith, with
her Animal Reecue League, No. 61 Car
ver street.
In her annual report hire. Smith
eaya: 1
“In our first report, Issued February,
1900, we gave a record of 2,696 animals
received.
“The record for 1901 was 6,131; for
1902, 7,769; for 1903, 9,044; for 1904,
13,161; for 1906, 16,761. During the
year just closed we have received 17,-
886, and mill thbro are men and women
IliK to III- league •■'■TV « e..k who
- -flu- 1 * -
can be carried.
"Of the 17,886 animals received dur
ing the last year'there-were 8,143 cate’
npd 6,107 kittens, making a total of
14,440 cats and kittens. . ,
‘"Three'thousand and 'three hundred
and twenty,-six dogs -were cared for;
and beeldes these animals there were
brought te ue for various reasons, elth-
S ' to be relieved from suffering by
erclful-death or with a hope of -plac-
g them In homes, forty birds, In
cluding six pigeons and two parrots,
forty-tnree white mica and white rate,
fourteen guinea pigs, nine rabbits and
four squirrels.-
"We have also bought slxty-two old
or disabled horses that the law could
not take from their owners and had
jhem 1 mercifully killed. During the
year 618 dogs and 641 catr and kittens,-
making a total of 1,846 animals, were
placed In good homes.” •.
Educational Work.
.' But this Is a small part'of the work
done by this league. Ite most Impor
tant work Is educational.' "Bands of
Mercy,” "Kindness Clubs" and orgaht-
katlons which develop the minds of
children along the lines 1 of sympathy
and protection for weaker things, hare
been the main Interest of this good
woman.
It Is to be hoped that In all the other
rltles of our greet America good wo-',
men Will be found'to undertake the
rganlxatlon of Kindness. Clubs
The club has a president, secretary
and treasurer, selected by the organ
iser first, end each year afterwards
elected by th*. members.
After the meeting Is formally opened
each member relates tome act of mercy
and klndnees he or she has been able.
i perform during the week. Not only
acts of kindness to animals, but to
-human beings. One little hoy reported
that "he had helped moMer.
Others report, picking UP.a blanket
which had fallen from a shivering ani
mal and. replacing It. Another picking
up broken glaaa and old tin cane from
the street to save the. feet of horses.
Othars, It Is to he hoped, tell-of giv
ing tired people with bundles seats In
can and stages; of assisting cripples
and blind people over the streets, and
of saying a kindly Word to the poor
and decrepit and deformed, instead of
staring them out of countenance, as so
many children, supposed to be well
reared, continually do.
Mrs. Smith reports the remark of
one mother, which le full of-signifi
cance. "Now that my children are
grown,” she said, “I see the great mis
take I made In not teaching them to be
thoughtful and kind. It le the most
necessary virtue on earth, but Is rarely
taught In churches In any way to Im
press It upon the minds of the young."
I am happy In the receipt of a letter
Sheehan, of No. 314
lyn, N. V.,
c place, Brook-
xvhich says; "My sister,’who
Is as fond of animals as I, wishes, after
a time, to have a home built for home-
lenH-nnlmals, nnd the family and. I fa
vor the rtXn. If will be situated
somewhere 1 . In Umoklyn.”

two men already In Brooklyn aa a testi
monial of their humanity aa drivers.

the hard position'of drivers through
crowded etty streets.
Following her example, I have or-
ired three of the “Ida Medals/’ which
_ am sending to the only three humane
drivers I found In Jamaica, IV. I.
Some one asked Mrs. Smith It her
Kindness Club wad not calculated to
tneko children egotistical and vain
glorious.
She replied: "If I can teach children
to glory In doing good deeds, I am
willing thay should becoms a bit vain."
If you want to help make the grow
ing generation better, write to Mrs.
Bmlth at the addreaa,given above, send
her an addressed and stamped envelope
and ask her how you can start a Kind
ness Club In your own town. •”
; Write also to Stella J. Preeton, sec
retary, the New York State Humane

only a r, but MUs Preeton report*:
"Several newspaper* throughout the

for children. Inviting hem through the
papers to sign the pledge, 'I will try
to be kind to all harmless living crea
tures' and protect them from cruel
undreda.of children have been
prompted to write stories and letters
on humane subjects to thsae papers,
