The Lassen Association will be hosting a two-day photography workshop at Manzanita Lake inside Lassen Volcanic National Park. Participants will use Lassen Volcanic National Park's stunning land- scape and diversity of eco- systems to improve their skills making photographs. By combining in-class and hands-on photography ex- periences in the park, par- ticipants will learn about compositional principles that will enable them to make more compelling photographs of wildflow- ers, geologic features and grand mountain views. The workshop will con- sist of a two-hour in class presentation on the prin- ciples of lighting and com- position, a five-hour hands- on field excursion, a one- hour optional session, and a post photo-shoot critique session. The lecture will be 5:30- 7:30 p.m. Saturday, July 23 and the excursion and cri- tique is set for 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. Sunday, July 24. Cost is $135 for Lassen Association members, $150 non-members.

LASSENPARK Naturephotographyworkshopoffered This past weekend, PETS held an adoption event for the homeless animals of the Tehama County An- imal Care Center at Prime Cine- mas during their pre- miere show- ing of "The Secret Life of Pets." Not all the animals that were brought were ad- opted, but for those of us involved it was a resound- ing success. Anytime we can learn from an experi- ence and bring a bit of joy into a life, whether it is human or not, the effort and time given is an ac- complishment. When the children came in, their immediate reaction was one of un- surpassed delight. The event confirmed what we have always believed, that children adore ani- mals, and if any commu- nity is to have responsi- ble and compassionate adults, we need to en- courage and nurture that adulation. Since children are inherently curious and absorb information at an astonishing rate, it is a perfect opportunity for us to instill lessons of kindness and empathy so that not only the welfare of animals, but also our own citizenry, is ensured. When children learn to care for animals, and treat them kindly, they obtain invaluable prepa- ration in learning how to treat other fellow mem- bers of society. Learn- ing about compassion and respect in the forma- tive years aids in helping reduce instances of vio- lence and cruelty to all living beings. If we wish for a brighter tomorrow, we need to start with the children, and it is never too early to begin. No matter how much we profess our love of animals, pet homeless- ness is a problem many ignore and, even worse, contribute to. If you do not think it is a problem, then let the appalling sta- tistics convince you. Ac- cording to the National Council on Pet Population Study and Policy, 90 per- cent of all dogs born in the U.S. every year have no permanent home, and homeless animals out- number homeless people 5 to 1. We bear witness to this every day at the An- imal Care Center. What statistics do not show is the impact on the emo- tional lives of these ani- mals. Their lives are more stressful and frustrat- ing than is natural or ac- ceptable. Even the best of shelters are loud and frightening places for the animals who reside there. To ignore the ef- fects that living in a shel- ter environment can have on the overall well-being and behavior of these an- imals is to do them an ex- treme injustice. How- ever, for a brief few hours, the dogs and kittens who were brought to the adop- tion event had a hiatus in their otherwise sorrow- ful lives. The unabashed joy we witnessed from these an- imals with the attention they were given would bring everyone, except the most hardened, close to tears. Tails wagged in eager anticipation of scratches and belly-rubs. Kisses and licks were freely given and each one displayed behaviors that made us all ponder why they had been either discarded like trash, or never searched frantically for if they had been lost. You could almost hear them saying, "Please take me home with you". Discussing a shelter an- imal's emotional well-be- ing may indeed sound silly to some, especially to those that firmly be- lieve animals are devoid of feelings. But it is easy for many of us to vocal- ize the necessity of do- ing what can be done to make life better for these forsaken animals. We also firmly believe that we are caring and princi- pled in our treatment of not only the pets in our homes, but also to those who are looking for com- fortable, loving homes of their own. In addition, when we assist in provid- ing happy-endings to not so fairy-tale lives, we val- idate the existence of the animals to be more than worthless. While not all dogs and cats were adopted dur- ing the event, it gave those animals that came a break from the daily stresses of shelter life. With the public, the event made the invisible visi- ble to a new set of people who we hope will become future adopters, or volun- teers, or fosters, or sup- porters of the Care Center and the animals within. It additionally provided a perfect venue where ad- ditional training and so- cialization of the animals could occur. It was an ex- cellent opportunity to ed- ucate the public about pet homelessness and other animal-related issues. It offered openings to teach children about kindness to animals and answer the many questions they had. It was also an occa- sion to share in the fun. Yes, from all of us in- volved, this past week- end's adoption event was an unmitigated success. RonnieCaseyisvice president of PETS — Providing Essentials for Tehama Shelter.

Police Logs The ladies of Red Bluff who operated the jitney lines to the show grounds yesterday in an effort to in- crease their fund for Com- pany H boys, checked up their wealth last night af- ter a day of delightful en- deavor, and were able to account for about $15. Considering that there was no unusual crowd in town because of the show, the la- dies had a very good day. And they had oceans of fun. It was a new experi- ence, but had their been the usual circus crowd in the city the ladies would have found themselves mighty busy to haul the people. The fund now con- tains more than $100. — July 16, 1916 100 YEARS AGO... Jitney line added to fund fi een dollars DAILY NEWS FILE PHOTO Ridge Lakes at Lassen Volcanic National Park.
