HOW TO nnLp THEN.

The promptness with which all sections
OF the country have responded to the APP
peals for aid in the flooded districts of
the Brazos bottoms is the most gratifying
feature OF the whole situation.
Thousands and thousands of dollars have
been subscribed for the benefit OF those
who are hungry and destitute. Rich and
poor alike have responded to the call for
aid, and nearly every heart has been
touched by the sufferings of those made
homeless by the rush of waters.
Much distress has been relieved, but
there is still great deal to be done. The
full extent OF the disaster will not be real
lied until the waters recede and efforts are
made to give employment to the thous-
ands who are without homes, without
food, without clothing and without grow
ing crops. Fully So per cent of the suf-
ferers are negroes. They had nothing ex-
cept their little homes, and expectations
of bountiful crops. With these washed
away their condition Is Indeed deplorable
Doubtless the best way to relieve the
situation would be for the merchants.
bankers and business men generally
throughout Texas to subscribe toward a
fund to purchase seed for food crops that
can be planted at this late day. Give them
work wherever possible and see that they
have something with which to start crop
OF some kind. The situation is grave
one and concerted action will be necessary
in order to make the relief OF practical
and lasting value.
The Post will continue to receive cash
subscriptions for the flood sufferers and
1t is hoped that contributions will be sent
from all sections OF the State. Let help
be given freely and literally. These sub
scriptions VIII be turned over to the CEN
trail committee organized here yesterday.

CHILD LABOR.


Under the caption, "a Sad Feature OF
Our Civilization" the New York Journal
has an editorial on the question OF child
labor in that city. From what The Post
can CLEAN by reading this article tho sad
features consist more In the law OF New
York governing child labor than in the
fact that children have to work
In many respects. from a humane view

have to spend their vacation at work, but,
In the light of the history OF the past,
and even in view OF the conditions that ex-
LIST In other countries even now they are
fortunate indeed to have schools 10 attend
a part OF their time. with the prospect OF
getting honest employment when school
is out.
There never has been, and in all prob
ability there never will be. In any country
conditions under which great many OF
tho children will not have to work.
In the large centres of population 1t Is
unreasonable to expect any othcr condi-
tion. Many parents with large families
are poor and the little ones early In life
must OF necessity learn to be self-support-
ing. Then again many are orphaned. and
are thus boreft of that natural support
due them.
Commenting on this condition in New
York, the Journal says:
Their school days being over for the SUM

tlncatos that viii allow them TO 60 TO work.
