Unmuzzled Dogs at Kuling From Our Own Correspondent Nanking, June 23, 1920.
The Commencement Exercises of various educational institutions are practically all over; the Language School student's have completed their year's study, and have been assigned their Various stations, and, with studies ended for a time, the summer exodus to Kuling, Mokanshan, Peitaiho and elsewhere. has commenced in real earnest, the result being that the community has been depleted in numbers to a very noticeable extent. One of these parties, that had left for Kuling, on arrival at Kiukiang made for the motor gat-ago and while waiting, the young son of Mrs. W. F. Wilson was severely bitten in the leg by a Ohinese dog. Fortunately serious consequences ensued.
may say that I spent three weeks at Kuling last year and was alarmed at the number and varied descriptions, sizes and breeds of dogs that were to be seen roaming round among the visitors. unate tended and unmuzzled. A circular was sent round asking for signatures to a protest against conditions then existing. What hi pened or whether any preventive measures were taken by the Estate officials, your correspondent di: not hear as he left the mountains soon after. But the time has now come with the opening of the Kuling season, for all visitors to this beautiful summer resort to be of one mind and insist that all dogs be debarred, and that those met with in the Gap and around the butchers' store and tennis courts should be either securely muzzled or destroyed if found unmuzzled. The officials should insist_that no dogs be brought into the Estate by summer visitors: there are already quite a number there which should be gotten rid of in the interest of men, women and children.—Precautionary measures are insisted unau in Hankow and Shanghai: why should not the same measures be adopted in Kuling? A "dry" Kuting was voted for last summer, why not a dog-barred Kuling as well?
