.. irrrrual Meeting (Continued from page 1)

.__-----—-i.___._____

RAW" °l 5-‘ P- C- A. work since ian. 28. 1029. Dec. 2, i929.

Our, last annual meeting was held in the City Building on Jan. 23, 1939, At this meeting the old officers were ra-eiectcd and officer Trainor ap- pointed inspector for the year i929.

Inspector Tralnor ,read a lengthy report of his activities during the prg- vlous yearin which there were many investigations and several prosecu- tions and convictions.

1n March of‘ 1929 the s. r. c. a. gave the Children's Society an en- tertalnment in the Market Hall. Moving pictures were shown, “The Day‘: Work." at Toronto headquar- rsrs and the "Bell of Atri." Father McIntyre and Canon Malone ad- dressed the children. Nearly a thous- and children were present and all re. ceived membership buttons.

Mrs. J. S. Jenkins offered s prize of $15.00 for essays on "why and how I should be kind to animals.‘ to be competed for by the children of the city schools. A first prize of $5.00 and second. $2.50. to be given in grades‘ from 7 to 10 inclusive and the same for grades 4 to 5 inclusive.

The result of this was that so many essays were written that the judges had great difficulty in going over them all. and there were so many vety excellent ones that it was almost impossible to decide between them.

As the very small children also wrote and as it would not be fair to judge them with the older ones, the Society gave three prizes. $3.00, $2.00 and $1.00 for the best three in grades from} ‘I to 3,‘ and it would surprise older people to read what those little tab‘ have‘ written. and to‘ realize what they really feel and know about their pets. A

‘Ihese prizes were all awarded at the closing of the city schools in Jun . . '

In the second week in May, the Society held a "Mayflower Tag Day." which we hope will be an annual af- fair. Our President. Mr.. Hennessey. very readily donated the Mayflowers.

A special meeting was held on Nov. 5 to consider a letter received from Toronto Headquarters stating that the Societies all over Canada were getting together, with a. view to having the Criminal Code or that part of it relatingdo the treatment of animals revised.

Dr. J. S. Jenkins moved that a letter be written to Toronto. that we concur in the movement, and will be with them in whatever they dzcide is best to be done. Seconded by Mr. Charlie Jenkins. Motion CBTTlEG.’

Inspector 'I‘rainor reported. since last meeting '

30 investigations.

6 investigations by mail.

6 horses found suffering and re- lieved.

The date of the annual meeting was set for Dec. 2.

Dr. J. S. Jenkins suggested that We get .all the publicity we can before the meeting. Meeting adjourned.
