A Civic Zoo.
Article from the Evening Times supporting the decision of the Glasgow Town Council to reject the motion that the possibility of a zoological garden be considered and reported upon by the Parks Committee. Although the author states that there would have been no particular harm in passing the motion, he/she questions the appropriateness of such an expensive hobby during a time of implied economic hardship in Glasgow. They also point out that Glasgows climate would not be hospitable for animals in the way that the climates of continental cities which house zoos are. The writer then concludes that theoretically a municipal zoo is an excellent idea, but [owing to the factors outlined] the time is not yet.

My Teddy Bear.
Short rhyming poem in two stanzas entitled My Teddy Bear, which seems to be written from a childs perspective about their pet bear. The poem describes how the bear, once wild and free, is now a beloved pet. Though there is no date of the poems publication, due to its inclusion with articles and letters deliberating on a zoo for Glasgow, it would follow that the poem might be designed to highlight the strong affinity children have with animals and what a tragedy it would be if the rejection of a zoological garden in Glasgow deprived of them of such opportunities to enjoy the presence of animals.
