CHARITY WITHOUT PITY.

Sorosis celebrated It's twenty-scvcnth birthday
with a discussion II the question. is the
philanthropy Of the present day more thco-
'rctcal than practical?' Some complaints were
made that philanthropy rather more thco-
rctical than practical when II expended It's cncr-
giles In building institutions and left the insti
tutions to care for the needy as best they could.
The prcpondcrancc ~ opinion seemed 10 BE-.
however that philanthropy had OF recent years
become more practical in fact, that there was
a new philanthropy clearly distinguished from
the old The old charity, II WAS said by one Of
the leading speakers. was synonymous with
pity II gave aims The new sought 10 cdu-
cate its bcnclcarIcs To do without aims. The
old relieved the distress Of the moment; the
new trained the distressed TO work and help
themselves
This is perhaps Il just view Of the situation
up TO a certain point. but there is need to go
step further in order to appreciate to the full
the meaning Of the new philanthropy which
abolishes pity, II indeed II will endure to be
called by the name philanthropy nj ALL The
old is objected 10 as involving pity, but In the
minds Of the more advanced students of social
problems Is not the new quite rs open to oh
lection as involving the idea Of bcncfaction?

Of 81. Oucn. France, and he only echoes the

to be grateful and gratitude with these thco-
