SHALL ALL THE DOOS BE SLAUGHTERED? Ever since the world war began to make demands on the American people to save food, we frequently see and hear opinions expressed similar to the following, quoted from an Idaho Indian journal: We presume even a dog may have its place in the world, but it is beyond our capacty to understand the need for the animals. Worthless dogs consuming good food when there is not sufficient in the world to feed the human race. Chickens and pigs are good food for man, but the dog is worthless. Why not become a little more practical! Kill the dogs and raise shoep, chickens pigs, and other useful animals. The big dog and the little dog, the old dog and the young dog, should be condemned and oxecuted and tho food sent to the starving women and children, who will be very grateful for it. Number the dogs and do your duty." Since our friend with the intestinal point of view confesses he has not the capacity to understand the need for dogs, it is perhaps useless to try to impress upon his limited comprehension , of human emotions the fact that to the majority of people dogs iwe friends, whose proved worth during many years is not based upon gastronomic possibilities. Because a dog and I fltn speaking of real dogs, not a Pekinese because grasp the fact that numberless people would willingly deprive them-solve-s rather than see the family dog styot. If, as he suggests, we commence being practical by killing the worthless" dumb animals, severing the ties of affection with which dogs have bound themselves to the human family by their loyal devotion and often' unmerited constancy, let ns also strike a blow at our esthetic impracticalities, that in our efforts to feed the hungrey we at least ant consistently. Let us then, convince our Bernhards and our Paderewskis of the error of their ways and instruct them in the beauties and obligations of Let us convert our public playgrounds into cow pastures, ajnd our art galleries into cabLet us grow onions bage patches. instead of roses, and turnips instead Let us have a pig pen of tulips. where the lilac tree once grew, .and . a fattening squab in the A consistently practical man would say, Why should the state heavily tax its sane, self supporting citizens for the maintenance of thousands of idiots and criminal insane, who not only are of no service to mankind (you cannot eat them, yon know,) but are a very real menace! If the state only had an intestinal point of view, upheld by that sense of duty we are adjured to entertain, it would dispose of these human burdens and send the enormous amount of food they consume re$l food, not the aforesaid starving scrape to women and ehildren. Canine aristocrats doubtless consume good food, but the average dog on table scraps. Our lives kill the dogs and send friend cries the food to the starving women and children." Being a practical man, he doubtless has visualized ships sailing for Europe with cargoes of garbage cans and dog biscuits for the Was grateful women and children. it an oversight, or a doubt as to their gastronomic capabilities, that he failed to include men among the beneficiaries! It is obviously true that an object desirable in Itself may easily become undesirable when indulged in beyond Three dogs at a time, like reason. three wives, are apt to prove inconvenient to a man and asnnoyig to tho It seems a reasonable neighbors. man should be satisfied with one each, though I am aware that the possessor of a kennel or a harem will disagree with me. .
