A FEW WORDS ABOUT THE "LITTLE FOLKS" HUMANE SOCIETY.

Fifty thousand Officers and Members--such is the printed muster-roll of The LITTLE FOLKS Humane Society. As most of the Readers of LITTLE FOLKS are aware, however, this does not comprise all the names on the Register of the Society--for since this grand total was reached many hundreds of Children have enrolled themselves; nor does the fact that in future the publication of the Lists will be discontinued (as announced on page 55 of this Volume) signify that the work of the Society--which has been so enthusiastically carried on since it commenced in January, 1882--is accomplished. On the contrary, the Editor earnestly trusts that his Readers will not only still come forward in large numbers and become Members, by sending in their "promises" to him, but will also, in the future as they have in the past, continue to induce their relatives and friends to enroll themselves under the Society's banner. For it should be remembered that the Dumb Creation _always_ stands in need of help and protection; and it is to a great extent by the aid of such a.s.sociations as The LITTLE FOLKS Humane Society--founded for the purpose of inculcating in the minds of children Kindness towards Animals--that the claims of the weak and defenceless creatures around us are recognised as they should be.

The names of all who fill up and sign the "form of promise" (which is again printed on the next page), and send it to the Editor, will, as heretofore, be duly inscribed on the Register of the Society; and Certificates of Members.h.i.+p will be forwarded to any who desire to have them, if _stamped addressed_ envelopes be enclosed for the purpose.

(The limit of age for enrolment is 21).

Members will also be eligible to become Officers of the Society and receive Officers' Certificates if they induce Fifty other Children to join, and send in that number of "promises" to the Editor, _all together_; but the small book and medal hitherto awarded to Officers will, in future (as stated on page 55), be given only to those who, in sending up their Fifty "promises," enclose a certificate from a Parent, Teacher, or other responsible person, stating that the collection of such "promises" had been commenced _prior_ to July 1, 1884.

The wonderful progress made by The LITTLE FOLKS Humane Society since its inst.i.tution in January, 1882, has, the Editor feels sure, been a source of much gratification to all who have taken part in its work; and while tendering thanks to the Officers and Members--comprising representatives of every rank and station, and living in all parts of the globe--who have so zealously and heartily co-operated with him, he can only express the hope that in the accounts of the Society which he proposes to give in LITTLE FOLKS from time to time, he may be able to record the same satisfactory progress in its growth during future years as he has in past ones.

The "form of promise" to be signed (which should be copied on half a sheet of note-paper and forwarded to the Editor, after being filled up, and attested by a Parent, Teacher, or other responsible person) is as follows:--

To the Editor of LITTLE FOLKS.

[Here insert full name]

I ..................... hereby undertake, as far as it lies in my power, to be kind to every living creature that is useful and not harmful to man.

All communications to the Editor in reference to the Society should have the words, "LITTLE FOLKS Humane Society," on the left-hand top corners of the envelopes.

TRUE STORIES ABOUT PETS, ANECDOTES, &c.

HOW A WILD DUCK SAVED HER CHILDREN.

Dear MR. EDITOR,--Our river is so shallow that in some parts reeds grow in it, where wild ducks are very fond of building their nests. Once, shepherds who were with the cattle, near that river, saw a wild duck, with eighteen little ones swimming about, and as the little ducks were so small they thought it would be very easy to catch them. So accordingly they got into the water, and were trying to catch the young ones, when they perceived that the old duck, instead of flying away, as they expected she would do, was turning over in the water as if she were hurt. The shepherds seeing this, thought it would be very well to catch her first, as it seemed a very easy thing to do, so they went over to where she was. Meanwhile the little ducks got safely hidden in the rushes, and the old one seeing that her children were out of their enemies' reach, flew into the air and left the shepherds standing with nothing.

THE SAGACITY OF ANTS.

Dear MR. EDITOR,--A friend recently told me that when walking in his garden one day he noticed an ant seemingly examining a dead caterpillar which lay on the path. Then it returned to its nest, but soon came back with several others. These, walking round the caterpillar, examined it carefully, as did the first. Home they all went; soon they returned with still more of their companions, then they formed a long column, very like a rope, and dragged him to the edge of the path. The nest being in the flower-beds they had to pull him over the tiles surrounding the garden, but once over this difficulty on they toiled until after a quarter of an hour's hard work they reached their nest.

A KIND HORSE.

Dear MR. EDITOR,--The other day, as I was walking along the road, I saw a horse do another a deed of kindness. One poor horse was out in the road without anything to eat, and the other in a field with plenty of gra.s.s. The horse that was in the field picked a mouthful of gra.s.s and put his head over the gate; the poor one then took it out of his mouth and ate it up. This was done five or six times. The horse then neighed, as much as to say, "thank you," and walked on.

PRIZE STORY COMPEt.i.tION FOR DECEMBER.

In the place of a "Picture Page Wanting Words," the usual Monthly Prizes are offered for the best Original Stories on the subject of "A Skating Adventure," namely---a Guinea Book and an Officer's Medal of the LITTLE FOLKS Legion of Honour for the best Story; and a smaller book and Officer's Medal for the best Story (on the same subject) relatively to the age of the Compet.i.tor, so that no reader is too young to try for this second prize. All Compet.i.tors must be under the age of 16. The Stories, which are not to exceed 500 words in length, must be certified as _strictly original_ by a Parent, Minister, Teacher, or other person of responsible position, and must reach the Editor on or before the 10th of December (the 15th of December for Compet.i.tors residing abroad). In addition to the two Prizes and Officers' Medals some of the most deserving Compet.i.tors will be included in a Special List of Honour, and will be awarded Members' Medals of the LITTLE FOLKS Legion of Honour. It is particularly requested that each envelope containing a Story should have the words "December Prize Story Compet.i.tion" written on the left-hand top corner of it. (Compet.i.tors are referred to a notice respecting the Silver Medal, which was printed on page 115 of the last Volume.)

Home she flies, eyes clouded With a mist of tears; Little bosom trembling With vague childlike fears.
