GIRL GUIDE'S PLEA FOR ANIMALS.

PRIZE-WINNING ESSAY.

The prize recently offered by the Hong Kong S.P.CA, for the best essay on cruelty to animale was won by a Girl Guide in the and Kowloon Company. Our readers will be interested to read the impression of this observant young lady of fourteen upon every- day scenes in the Colony. We quote as follows. Inserting a few cross-headings:-

Spoiled Pets.. There are not very many animals to be found in Hong Kong, and those that are in the Colony are not very well treated. Most of these animals are used for domes- tic purposes.

It is hard to make people realise that animals have feelings, and so should not be so badly treated as they are. But there are some animals kept as pets, that may be termed "spoilt."

These become overfed, grow lazy and fat, and live com- fortably. Let us see how pets and domestic animals should be kept, and what improvements should be made.

Dirty Dogs.

*

You can see cäge upon cage of birds, and rabbits, and all stacked together untidily. There is either not enough room to fly about, or not enough bird seed, or not enough water to drink, Wild birds should not be kept in cages. They pine away for fresh air and freedom and often die. This should not be. If a person wants to keep a bird- shop, that person must see that the birds are comfortable and given food and warmth.

Studing Poultry With Sand. There is still another bad way of treatment that is often done tö chickens and capons. It is only his natural that a person goods to sell, but is it right to cheat all customers! A friend of mine once saw large lampe of sand or other indigestible substancey being pushed down ·✡ capon's throat, to make the bird put on more weight, and then sold to people. This also applied to what is done to ducks and turkeys too. If the man wants to make money, he must do it in the right way- feed his chickens, ducks, or tur keys, and for the ducks, give them

When going for a walk round the poorer districts of Hong Kong and Kowloon, many ways of ill treatment to cats, dogs, and cows and other domestic animals can be found. One seer dogs with cuts and gashes all over the body, ears, and legs, bleeding and open wounds here and there; and dogs with dirty coats, showing that they have not been washed for some time; and you will also see dogs with cheek bones standing out: most prominor make for them a pond to swim ently. What does all this meant one may ask The answer is ob vious, The coga bave not been cared for properly, no cleaning and washing of wounds, no regular baths in a week, and no regular meals a day. It I will ever have a dog, I would see that it will have all its wounds and cuts-if it does have any wounds and cuts-attend. ed to; that it has at least one bath week; and also that it has its proper meals, not less or more.

Cruel Policemen.

Even pigs are not well kopt; they certainly are not well carried in their cages. One on top of the other, I pity the bottom cael A little more time and work, will not hurt the owner, so why not make the most of it The pigs are most uncomfortably placed, with their legs poking out, and no room to move in. I wonder how can they stand the strain !

I am glad to say, though, that

are picked up by the tail or biod legs, and then roughly pushed in- side the cage. Another way is to half strangle the poor, dog, by catching it with a rope threaded through a thin wooden pipe, and then tying it, at one end, into a loop, ready for the dog to get in. Yet another way, which is most cruel, is to shoot stray dogs. Why cannot the man find out whose dog it is, and then fine the owner for carelessly letting the animal out of the house instead of shooting the dog. without anyone knowing.

The Fish That Vanished, Cats are also not very well kept Some time ago, in some homes. whilst living at Jordan Road, a great commotion was heard cut side my window, I looked out to see what was the matter, and learn ed from one of the servants that the cat upstairs had eaten up s ash, lying on the table. Then the servant upstairs come in, just in time to see the cat fuish the fsh. When she saw the cat licking its lips she grew most angry, and being afraid of her "mistress too, the picked up the cat good fung it downstairs to the ground floor. It was with much difficulty that the cat was brought back to its senses. Every living thing must have food, and enough of it. So one has to see to it that cats and dogs have regular meals, just as being has to have food.

Want of Thought.

If a person wants to keep animals and pets, he must see that they) are treated well, or it will be of no use his keeping them; and if "everyone who does keep pets and animals will look after them pro- perly, there will not be so many cries against ill-treatment of them. Let us hope that in future animals will take a little more space in our thoughts, and that they will be treated as they ought not like slaves, but more like a human being.
