Listen, My Children: Paul Revere's Ride in Poetry and Legend
Old South Meeting House
310 Washington St.
Boston, MA
Wednesday, September 8, 2010, 6:30 – 7:30pm



Summary: Free and Open to the Public, This year marks the 150th anniversary of Henry Wadsworth Longfellow's poem about "the midnight ride” of Paul Revere. Using new research, historian and author Charles Bahne will examine how Longfellow created one of America's most enduring legends—a tale which, like all legends, often strays from the truth. What did Longfellow know when he wrote the poem? Why did he include some details, and ignore or omit others? What about William Dawes and Samuel Prescott? Included in the program will be a world-premiere: the first-ever public reading of Longfellow's complete first draft, including an entire stanza which was later deleted, and has never been published. This program is the first in The Paul Revere Memorial Association Lecture Series One Hundred Fifty Years of “Paul Revere’s Ride”: Facts, Fables, and Fiction presented by Paul Revere House and Old South Meeting House.

Low Cost Spay/Neuter Clinic
Standish has a reduced-cost spay/neuter program in which 26 veterinary hospitals participate. We offer reduced-cost sterilization to owners who cannot afford regular veterinary fees. We work with animal control officers to identify residents who need help with sterilization of their pets. Animal control officers give us lists of people in their towns who need assistance spaying and neutering of their pets, and we provide them certificates for this service. Every cat adopted from our shelter is sterilized. We sterilize every animal we can! The financial expense is high- over $40,000 a year- but we are making a difference!

For MORE INFO about our reduced cost spay/neuter program e-mail us or call 781-834-4663 (and choose option "4")

Remember: The funding for our shelter and spay/neuter program comes mainly from private donations


Why Spay or Neuter Your Pet?

Spay Your Female To: Eliminate the heat cycle; yowling in cats, bloody discharge in dogs. Eliminate complications of pregnancy and delivery. Prevent unwanted litters, only one in 10 puppies and kittens finds a permanent home. Eliminate uterine diseases, ovarian cysts. Reduce the risk of breast cancer, especially if spayed before 2 years of age.

Neuter Your Male To: Reduce urine spraying in cats; reduce urine marking in dogs, reduce strong urine odor in cats. Reduce urge to roam and risk of fights, injury, poisoning or death in traffic. Reduce mounting and aggression. Reduce risk of prostate cancer and infection and perianal hernias. Eliminate testicular tumors.

For Either Sex: Reduce the number of unwanted cats and dogs. Stop mating drive. Reduce risk of injuries and abscesses from fights. Have a calmer, more content, family-oriented healthier pet. Will NOT make a pet fat or lazy. Can be done at any time, but ideal age is 6-8 months.

POPULATION OVERLOAD

Our communities are facing an overload of pet animals. Too many dogs and cats are not wanted anywhere. They are treated like disposable items instead of living creatures. Pets are abandoned when owners tire of caring for them. Unwanted litters are left at doorsteps or along roadsides. Every year in the U.S., approximately 8.6 million cats and dogs are euthanized (killed) because lasting, loving homes cannot be found for them.

You can help end this tragedy by making sure your pet doesn't contribute to the surplus of dogs and cats. Have your pet spayed or neutered by a veterinarian. If you let your pet breed, you may find homes for that litter, But what happens when each of those puppies or kittens has a litter, when each of those litters produces more litters?

Help reduce the pet populations so that each animal gets the care and respect it deserves.
