ly important to know what not to do as
to know what to do.
Il am asked so often what the institute
has done that is tangible that l find it
best to answer the question by illustra-
tions For instance, quite recently Mrs.
j. Pierpont Morgan came into the insti-
tute library TO ask my advice. She said
that in her home town, where some 1000
persons lived, recently a committee of the
townspeople came to her to ask the use
of a basement of a building to be turned
over to a class of rough and rowdy boys
who frequented the streets and are ex-
tremely boisterous and unpleasant to
passerby through their loafng habits.
Mrs Morgan felt that if this building
should be used at all it should be done In
the right way. So she came to US to ask
our advice as to some plan whereby We
could handle this class and remedy the
evil. We suggested the formation of a
boys club. outlining the scope and man
agement for her and a plan whereby the
building mentioned could be used. The
plan, I believe. was a successful one and
the people of that town owe one more
sincere effort in their behalf to their
kindly benefactor, Mrs. Morgan.

Mrs. Mary Rankin Cranston of New
York. librarian of the American INSTITUTE
for Social Service. who Is now In charge
of the British institute. having been call
cd To England a few weeks ago, is from
the south and a member of one of the
most nrouInept southern families. She
is a sister of Mr.. J. W. Rankin OF Dir
mingham. and has many friends here ana
elsewhere in the south who are Interested
in her work.
Mrs. Cranston is perhaps more close-
ly in touch with social and INDUSTRIAL
progress throughout the world than any
other woman in the country, and she has
attracted TO her methods of work NOT
alone the philanthropists of America put
those of England, particularly that class
of working philanthropists who go TO the
very heart of social problems.
In reference to Mrs. Cranston's mission
abroad and her work in this country
recent issue of the New York GLOBE
says:
She has received a distinct compliment
in being called to England to engineer
the formation of the British Institute oil
Social Service, which will model its work
much after the plan of the American IN
stitute. This is the latest of the social
service institutions to be formed thus
far in Europe America having seconded
Frances lead through the one in New
York, and Russia, Sweden and Belgium
all having followed in establishing like
endeavors
Mrs Cranston is a southern woman
fromerly from Atlanta, Ga. She has been
successful in her work here, and enjoys
wide reputation as a student of social
and Industrial problems, and has written
considerably on these themes for Amerl-
can magazines Her technical knowledge
of library work. coupled with a knowl-
edge of social conditions, has made her
invaluable as an organizer OF the proposed
institute, and she combines with these
gifts sound judgment and thorough love
for her work.
ut is only within the memory of the
present generation" said Mrs Cranston
that society has become selfconscious
in a way that shall lead to self-protec-
ton. Heretofore Indifference has char
acterized an attitude which permitted
evils to exist Since the awakening has
come there is a determination in almost
every part of the world to get at the root
of evils which strike at society itself
"'rhe American Institute Of Social Ser
vice Is a transmitter to those who wish
to know by those who do know of what
is going on throughout the world in the
way of social progress, and the British
institute is the same, adapted to the espe
cial needs of that country. The work Is
divided, broadly speaking, into two
classes: social and Industrial betterment.
Industrial betterment taxes up the thou
sand and one questions of labor and cap
ital arbitration. trades onions, employ
ers' associations. trusts wages, hours of
labor. what employers are doing to inn
prove conditions under ich their en-
ployes Woodworking relating to the
labor situation. Social betterment treats
of everything else. every kind of human
endeavor, good and bad alke-it is equal

Bean Shipments Liberal.

Cuba, May 2.-(Special 1.-The ship
ments of beans have been quite liberal to
date. There were six solid cars yester-
day and eight today However, ship
ments will be lighter from now on. While
the price has fluctuated a great deal, it
has been high enough for the growers
to make money. So there is no knockers
club here. That club dsbanded two or
three years ago and moved away to grow
all cotton.
