The use of the word "dumb" in its title was not intended to disparage non-human animals, but to refer to their lack of capacity for speech; the motto "We Speak For Those Who Cannot Speak For Themselves" was printed on every cover. Its content included news about the organization's activities and members, humane education and reports on cruel treatment towards animals, which was contrasted with the virtues of the animals being harmed, such as their intelligence and faithfulness. The magazine is considered important in the development of the early animal advocacy movement. (en)
