Rev. Donald Guthrie gave a short talk
on philanthropy" before the Woman's
Club yesterday evening, which was much
enjoyed by the ladies present
True Philanthropy" said DR.. Guth-
RE, "cannot be carried on without reason.
In philanthropy, above all things must
be used the shrewdest, keenest intellect.
Unreasonable philanthropy is curse to
the world. In fact, most philanthroplsts
need not any less heart, but little more
head"
DR.. Guthrie went on to say that 1t was
a common error Of philanthropists to look
Upon people en- masse-to "deindividual-
lie" them Again, the "kid glove and
lavender water philanthropy, which
took up the lower classes as man puts
a piece of soft coal on the fire." was al
together wrong. A true philanthropist
does not look down upon the people he is
trying to help. Then, another grave mis-
step in philanthropy is to create wants
in an individual I'm the lower state of life
that he can never fulfil. This breeds dis
content.
a phllanthropist must first attend to
the essential wants Of the people, such as
food, clothes. health, and shelter, before
he thinks of eleyating his mind with beau
tiful pictures. The great object and aim
OF true philanthropy is education. Phil
anthropy Is It's own reward. Through it
men lose all thought Of self and aim at
the highest lines of life.
DR.. Guthrie was introduced by Mrs
Lewis, the president of the club. When
this highly interesting and instructive talk
