SOMEWHERE OR NoWHERE2

1t was presumably only after long and careful
delberation that the members OF the tlushlng
Association decided to hold public meeting Tor
the purpose of asking Mrs. Ball1ngton Booth TO
discontinue the maintenance Of Hope Han, the
temporary home for released conVlcts when she
has established in that pretty suburb From the
several newspaper reports Of the meeting we
learn that the speakers praised Mrs. Booth and
commended the Hope Hall idea, and while the
resolutions adopted say that the institution is
objectionable" no specific counts are offered in
the general indictment The sentiment OF the
property owners, so far they are represented
by the attendance at the meeting, seems to be
summed up in the frank words of one OF the
speakers: mo matter how good this work may
'be, there is no community that wants such an
institution as Hope Hall set right down at its
back door"
The truth of that statement can hardly be dis
puted But If as the owners of Flushing real
estate admit the work which Hope Hall is do
ing Is admirable in itself, and So OF course,
ought not to be discontinued, to what neighbor-
hood shall Mrs. Booth remove the operations or
her charity? To no neighborhood at all-that
is to some island or to the centre Of some great
tract of land, as one critic suggested? But 1t
is necessary to the success of the work Of
reclamation that the men be within easy reach
of a market for their labor. The institution, If
It is to continue it's work, must be at the back
door of some community.
Her experience in this sort Of rescue work,
however must have been such as to prepare
Mrs Booth for such measure of organized OPP
position, not to the work in the abstract, but to
It's Objectionable character in the concrete. How
many are more than willing that Lazarus shall
have a goodIy allowance Of crumbs and even
cold pieces but object to his enjoying his dole in
their areaways All believe that the interests
md fho+ tho mar UVh faI
into criminal courses and suffered his punish
ment should have chance to reform, but who
cares to give him that chance In his own count
ing room? The prevalent opinion is that Hope
Halls are admirable institutions-for some other
community's back yard. But the season Of
peace and good will is not perhaps the most ap-
propriate for the expression of that human view.

I'm visitin' at Aunt Maria's,

And shavins and sawdust for tea!
She says it amt sawdust nor shayin's,
But some kind o. nu-triTnent food;
Anyway, 'tain't pie nor doughnuts,
Nor fritters, nor anything good!
She never has jam or cookies,
She says they are awful for me;
We eat 'em like sixty to our house,
And we're all of us healthier n she!
She won't let me have any sugar.
Because it will give me the gout,
And meat ! can't swallow a mite of

Didn't know that I had any liver
Cause, you see, was never sick much;
But I'm hungry for all 1 can think of

And Grandma and my old BALI
But guess I'm homesicker for doughnuts
Than anything else at all!
