The Crack of the "Whip.
Do you hear it frierds? "The
crack of the whip. " It is every
where ? it. is all the time. It
breaks tlio pence and stillness of
these autumn days, and far into
the night its cruel sound tells of
suffering none the less pitiful,
because we cannot sep the pa
tient, shrinking creatnre thit
grieves beneath the lash.
Do you hear it friends? "The
crack of the whip. " Or has its
hateful sound become so a part
of the street's life that it passes
unnoticed?
Listen to it then ? and listen
ing, pity ? and pitying, act, for
surely something can be done
here in beautiful Camden towards
creating a sentiment that revolts
at "the crack of the whip," bo
cause its sound stands for cruol
ty; because its sound stands for
brutality; because it. makes cal
lous to suffering, the. hearts of
the youth, who hearing, imitate.
Ifhe teamster raining blows
upon a defenceless horse ' or
.jntile, is imitated by the inuoceut
faoed boy in his cart drawn by
a tipy goat. When the over loaded
pantyng little creature's strength
faililft it is lashed unmercifully ?
aud why . not? All his little life
the- boy ha? heard "the crack of
the whip."' It is music to bis
baby ears- Every step of his
progress from childhood to man
hood has for its accompaniment
the sound that hardens the heart.
Look friends, at the horses
that are driven through our
streets. Many are well kept,
strong, sleek, the pride of owner
or driver, and the blood runs
faster as we watcli their splen
did pace. But look again,
friends at these others following.
These, the worn out, the feeble
with age; their sides are scarred
with tiie spur, their , bones are j
almost protruding, but patient, !
sad-eyed, hungry, they |>lod
their weary rounds and ever in
their drooping ears, the harsh,
discordant cry and crack of
whip.
Oh friends! The world Will
never be bettor as loni? as iikmi's
hearts are callous to tlio suffer
ing of the dumb servants given
into our keeping. There is uo
surer way to make it. bettor than
to make its groat heart, tender
to suffering in any. form, and"
one of the first steps towards
this end is to make the rawhide
an object of aversion, instead of
putting its miniature copy in the
hands of children.
There are great firms today,
owning hundreds of horses and
mules, whose drivers a?'e never
permitted to have a whip. To
be seen with one would cost the
driver his position. These
horses perform their work with
a steadiness and intelligence de
lightful to behold, and in pleas
ing contrast to the useless plung
ing and spasmodic straining of n
willing team made nervous, rest
less, frantic by incessant yells
and "the crack of the whip."
There are many societies and
clubs in Camden, but we need
one more, whose members should
deem it a privilege to speak for
those that suiter and are dumb.
