S. P. C. A. Pleased at Week
Set Aside For Animals;
Plan For Big Membership
Officers and directors of the Har
risburg Society for the Prevention of
Cruelty to Animals to-day expressed
themselves as being gratified by the
proclamation issued yesterday by
Governor Brumbaugh designating the
week of April 15 as "Be Kind to
Animals Week" and denominating
Sunday, the 21st, as "Humane Sun
day." The society has endeavored
for several years past to have these
days appropriately observed by
churches and schools, and hopes that
the Governor's proclamation, which is
in accord with a nation-wide action,
will do much to direct the attention
of the people to the causes for which
the S. P. C. A. stands.
This organization has accomplished
much good in Harrisburg and vicin
ity in a quiet way. A marked de
crease in cruel or unkind treatment
of animals has been noticed by all
whose attention has been given to
that matter. However, the society
has had to struggle along under dif
ficult conditions, because of the com
paratively few people who have ta
ken a sufficient interest in the wel
fare of animals to become members
of the organization. Less than 300
Harrisburgers have given their as
sistance to the work, despite the fact
that the annual dues are but sl.
An effort is now under way to se
cure at least 1,000 members for the
society. A dollar a year from these
members will enable it to do far
more efficient work. The appeal is
now being made by the society,
vtich will be accentuated during the
week of April 15, and should result
in bringing to the society the mem
bership for which it is working.
Al. K. Thomas, -of the East End
Bank, is treasurer.
Swift & Company's 1918
Year Book Very Artistic
The photogravure which consti
tutes the cover pages, front and
litck, of the Swift & Company Year
Book for 1918, now being distributed,
might have been taken in the Penn
sylvania corn belt, so far as appear
ances go. The scene depicted is of
corn standing and In shock, covering
a rolling landscape leading up to pic
turesque and ell-wooded foothills.
The picture is highly artistic and,
f reined, would make an ornament
worthy of any room.
The contents are just as artistical
ly presented as the outside and full
of Interest for the man or woman
locking for light upon the meat and
nieat product industry of the coun
try. The course of the cow, pig or
sheep from farm to the consumer is
traced in well-written articles, stat
istics and diagrams. Not the least
feature of the book is the compari
son of prices and quantities of last
