Banks new book, "White Slaves" show
ing the extent of the evils of the sweating
system, as the writer found them to exist
IN BOston-One poor woman with a Grip
pied child earning 10 cents q day, by work
ing from 7 in the morning until II at
night making large white aprons; another
finishing cheap overcoats at four cents
apiece another making boys short trou-
sers at rs cents per dozen pairs, and so on,
through a long list, a recital of which
makes the heart sore. These sweating
shops are mostly in tenement houses which
are unfit for human habitation and a dis
grace to the country. 1t it the duty of
every good citizen to agitatc the question,
and to use his utmost influence for wiping
out all such places, which are recognized as
breeders of disease and vice. Americans
sympathize with the Irish peasantry in the
cruel evictions which are practised upon
them, but in New York city alone there
are over 100 evictions for every working
day in the year, and in certain districts of
the city the marshals refuse to serve the
eviction notices for fear of contracting con
tagous diseases.
'In the face of these evils to which |
have referred, and many more not men
toned, it is our duty to feel more than ever
than ever the good Samaritan's part. Few
of us may be able to huild better tenement
houses or to endow benevolent institutions,
but it is the duty of every one of us to be
walking benevolent institution in himself"
The discussion which followed the pa
per was very animated, and a wide diverg
ence of views was developed. At the bus
mess meeting which preceded the supper
and paper, suitable recognition was made
of the great loss which the club had sus-
tanned since the previous meeting in the
death of DR.. Joseph Draper. DIR. Holton,
as one of the original members of the club,
contemporary with DIR. Draper, alluded to
the active and constant interest which DR..
Draper had always shown in the work and
success of the club. He had been unfail-
ing in his attendance on the meetings, and
by his personal interest and efforts had
done more than any other member for its
success and perpetuity. Several other
members recognized these facts and spoke
of the sincere and courteous interest which
DR.. Draper had always manifested toward
every member of the club, and especially
toward newcomers to the Brattleboro com
munity. The secretary was asked to make
suitable recognition upon the records of
these expressions.
Reference to the journal Of the club
shows that DR.. Draper gave the first paper
which was read before the club, on the
evening Of Dee l. 1850. He had more
than once been elected president ON
Jan. II. 1885, he read paper on "Ihc
CrystaliZationS of Social Life, and on
Monday evening, May Is, 1891, he WAS
again the cssayiSt when his subject was
