Protection of Animals,
[To The Editor of Hongkong
Telegraph.].
Sir-During the next week the S.P.C.A. will once more invito sub- scriptions from Arms and business houses in the Central District of: Hongkong. A committee of ladies interested in the work of the Society have very kindly consent- ed to call at the various offices and leava subscription cards. for clit. culation among members, of the respective staffs. This mathod of approaching firms and business houses is, I think, appreciated, as Involving the least inconvenienco and dislocation of work. I ven ture to appeal to the community through the medium of your paper to continue to give the Society ta support. The sympathy and Society is in sore need of funds and indeed unless we can rely on |the contínued "support of the pub-" le it will not be possible for the Society to function. As it in, the Uct. 17
number of inspectors has had to Nov. 1 Nav. 14 be reduced owing to inadequacy Nov. 20of funds. Notwithstanding this reduction of staff an increasing 6 a..
number of cases of cruelty to birds and animals have been brought to light and dealt with; but a great Ideal remains to be done to render the operations of the Society really effective.

As you are aware, the Committee of the Society have, in conjunc tion with the Boy Scouts and Girl Guides, organised annual essay competitions with the object of encouraging the youth of Hongkong to take an interest in the welfare of birds and beasts. The subjects of the essays are so chosen as to make it necessary for competitors to see and note for themselves the conditions under which birds and animals are kept both in the city and in country districts and to suggest ways and means of im. proving matters.
