GETTING RID OF THE UNDESIRABLE.

The human family is divided into two classes
those who take responsibility and those who shirk it,
says the Bulletin The shirkers the happier, and
perhaps the wiser class They usually have their own
way get what they want and the responsibles as
drudges and servants.
Babies are typical of all irresponsibles A baby
simply lies its back and demands that it be waited
on. When hungry the baby raises up its voice and
promptly the hunger is satisfied The baby does not
ask whether people have anything else to do but wait
upon camorous infant. It does not concern itself

There are thousands of grown-up babies who re-
fuse to assume any responsibility for themselves
anybody else and who invariably find other persons
to carry them along, to take responsibility from their
shoulders and generally, play the part Of wet and

pended brother or son or father. Perhaps he is a

There is always at least one responsible member Of
every family some poor wife or husband or mother,
daughter or father or son. who bears the troubles
of all the others The responsible members do all the
worrying and most of the work of the family, One
half of the race is supported by the other half, the
rresponsibes by the responsbles the drones by the
workers; and the rresponsbles it may be remarked,
resemble drones in more ways than one, for they
multiply rapidly and when they die, usually leave
legacy of hungry little ones to be supported by the
responsible portion Of the family. a
The care of few irresponsibes is a clog on ris-
ing man, but there are few men of achievement that
have not borne one or two shrkng relatives on their
backs in theupward climb. An ambitious man. ele-
waiting himself, endeavors to drag the rest of his
family upward with him.
1t would be an excellent thing for the world and
for the responsibes if all the irresponsbles the de-
pendents the parasites the lazy iders the drunkards
and other ncompetents- excepting, of course, the
bodily infrm-were to be shipped to Africa and there
left to their own devices Africa and the rresponsibles
both need development. 1t would be shrewd action
for all the civilized nations to set apart the African
continent as dumping ground for abe-bodied para
sites of all kinds There among strangers, the ire
sponsibles would be forced to bear responsibility and
look out for themselves, and the responsibles in
Europe and America would be relieved of great
burden. No doubt in Africa the feeber parasites
would fasten upon the stronger and one-half the
population would still support the other half but at
least the new conditions would train many to habits
of responsibility and certainly Europe and America
would be better fcr the rddance of all rresponsbes.
