from quick 10 double time were good,
but IN marching IN line the alignments
were far from perfect The obliquing In
quick time was only fair; obliquing In
double time was an Improvement, but
the step was too short and the cadence
bad. In wheeling by foprs and platoons
the distances were poor. In wheeling
in donble-time, however, the company
did much better. As rule the align

will reduce It's average. There can be

Suggestive Extracts From the Reports OF
Charity Organization.

Suggestive Extracts From the Reports of
Charity Organization.
The following interesting and sug-
gestive facts are extracted from the can
nual Report of the Charity Organization
Society,"" One of the facts brought to
light by such concentration of infor-
nation, from hundreds of sources, as
our registration bureau alone makes
possible, has recently forced itself into
notice It relates to the extent to which
applications for relief are made to char
liable agencies, far beyond what would
otherwise be credible. OF the many
hundred relieving agencies in the city,
it has been quite possible for 100 to 200
to be operating in the same neighbor-
hood, unknown to each other, and each
having comparatively few applications.
but altogether asggregatlng very large
number of beneficiaries. In examining
our street register it appears that we
had in our records on the last of No
vember 1928 cases living In one single
street on the east side, between Houston
and Fourteenth streets, in 8 section gen.
orally supposed to be inhabited by a
poor but respectable working class, and
containing comparatively few large
tenement houses. These had all been
reported to us within three and a half
years, and resided in a section not over
three-quarters of mile long, one end
of the street being occupied chiefly by
families beyond suspicion of depend
ence, and the other by lumber yards,
factories, storage buildings, etc., with
few, if any, residents At our safe aver
age of four to family, we have pop
u1ation, more or less dependent, of say
$500 persons living on both sides of a
single street, only five blocks long. If
these 1928 cases are all that have been re-
ported or referred to the society with it's
as yet incomplete degree of cooperation
with relief givers, it is fair to estimate
that half as many more applicants, I'M
known to the society, reside there, or a
total dependent population of nearly
5000 persons; showing Enthusiastically
that pauperism must be deeply rooted
and perennial in that locality-and if in
that locality, in how many other similar
streets is the same condition duplicated?
On both sides of a single block of this
street in which there are about fifty-one
numbers, occupants of forty-one of the
houses are reported as applicants,
while only those in ten are not so, and
some of the ten are not used as residents
at ALL These forty-one houses had one
hundred and fifty-seven families asking
aid, or an average of fifteen persons in
each house. In one house of this block
sixty persons wanted help, and in an
other thirty-two, while in other blocks
the numbers in single houses were even
orroator Tho nevt block paSt contains
one house with IA recipients, while in
the block to the west, in five adjoining
houses, and occupying space of 100
feet square, 119 families.
or say 475 persons have asked.
for relief within the life of this society.
The large majority of the lots in this
section have rear houses; and it is in
these that, not the most discouraged or

was standing. Sure enough he heard a
voice, apparently coming from inside the
case, crying out: "For Heavens sake let
me out of this! I'm smothering to DEATH"
With alacrity the merchant ordered an en-
ploye to open the box. A mallet and iron
wedge were brought out at once and the
cover of the box quickly removed. It was
filled with calico goods. But still the cries
for help continued to be heard. The mer-
chant lifted package after package from
the box and piled them in the boys arms,
who stood by, until he filled them with all
the youth could carry; then he threw them
on the sidewalk. The plaintive appeals
still arose from the depths OF the box. The
merchant was in terrible state of excite
ment. He threw off his coat and worked
in his shirt-sleeves. The perspiration
rolled down his cheeks in rills. Finally,
when the last layer of calico was reached, it
began to dawn upon his Opaque vision
that he had been made the victim of ven
triloquist. He looked at the boy, and the
boy looked at him. Then, suddenly, from
the box came quiet good morning" and
the lad lit out, leaving the merchant sur
rounded by a coterie of curious people, who
eyed him with a smile as he grabbed his
coat, protested against such "blamed non
sense" and skipped to hide himself in the
confines of his private ofiee.-San Fran

the most needy, but the most degraded
and shiftless congregate; the cases most
hopeless of cure under treatment-and
the first step in whose reformation
would seem. necessarily to be the rigor-
Gus enforcement of adequate laws to
prevent such fostering aggregations of
moral and physical pollution from being
hidden away from sight along our thor
oughfares. The figures above given are
exceeded in several isolated tenements,
but it causes amazement that whole
street, in section not generally sup
posed to be given over to paupers, should
show such sad developments. Doubt
less much of the mendicancy there is
fostered by private individuals, whose
operations can not yet be gathered and
measured. The facts show conclusively
that the process of infiltration from the
awful cancer of pauperism has actually
commenced, and that this society has
not undertaken day too early its efforts
to prevent the poor of this city from
drifting into deeper degradation and the
more hopeless poverty, which envelopes
the poor of SO many European cities;
and that the task will require all the
wisdom and energy that can be brought
to bear upon it.-Demorest's Monthly.
