Lord Brougham declared Washington
to be ''the only man, in fact, upon
whom the epithet great so thought.
lessly lavished by men, may be justly
bestowed" The Marquis de Chastel-
lux, French officer and a member OF
the French Academy, in 1885 said OF
Washington: Brave without temer-
ity, laborious without ambition, gener-
Gus without prodigality, noble without
pride, virtuous without severity, he
seems always to have confined himself
within those limits beyond which the
virtues, clothing themselves in more
lively but more changeable and
doubtful colors, may be mistaken for
faults Lord Byron wrote:

There are probably in fairly pros
porous years no fewer than 100000
persons in poverty in the United
States; that is to say, underfed,
underclothed. and poorly housed"
says Robert Hunter in Poverty" "Of
these about 100000 persons are pub
lie paupers. Over 100000 working
men are employed nom four to six
months in the year. About 100000
male immigrants arrive yearly and
seek work in the very districts where
unemployment is greatest. Nearly
half the families in the country are
propertiless. Over 100000 little
children are forced to become wage
earners when they should still be in
school. About 100000 women find it
necessary to work and about 100000
are employed in the factories and
mills. Probably no fewer than 1,000,-
600 workers are injured or killed each
year while doing their work and about
100000 Of the persons now living
will, if the present ratio is kept up,
die of the preyentable disease, tuber-
culosis."

The Appeal. [volume] (Saint Paul, Minn. ;) 1889-19??, 1905-02-18

In the year 1929 Rev. James Nlarye,
Huguenot refugee, and his bride
landed o4 Virginia soil. This man
was destined to I'LL a position of great
trust and Importance. He was to be
lhe spiritual guide and adviser OF
Mary, the mother of Washington, and
her family After years of research it
has lately been proved that it was he
that gave to the young George those
famous Rules of Ciyility and Decent
Behavior in Company and Conversa-
tion," which bore: fruit in the produc-
ton of that. most consunmate flower
of George wash
ington That these rules played
most important part in the formation
Of Washington's character has been
acknowledged by all of his biograph-
ers; in fact, the wisest and noblest of
these rules" are famili4 in nearly
every home in the country, but whence
they came; whether they were the
product of Washington's own brain,
or whether they came from some out
side and unknown source, and what
this source was, has been for over a
century matter of dispute and con-
lecture.
This learned clergyman, Rev. James
Marye, belonged to a prominent Cath
olic family Of Rouen, France, and was
educated for the priesthood in the Jes-
ut college of that city. In 1925 he
renounced the Catholic faith, went to
England and was ordained in the
Church Of England by the bishop OF

Statistics Of Poverty

years previous to 1890. The New
York state board of charities reported
that 20 per cent of the people of the
state of New York in 1897 found It
necessary to apply for relief In the
borough of Manhattan 60,403 families
were evicted from their homes in 1908.
This is about IA per cent Of the total
number of families. During the year
1903 in Boston over 10000 persons,
or 20 per cent Of the population, were
aided by the public authorities alone.
1t is estimated that 100000 persons
were aided through private charities.
And there are only about 100000 per"
sons in Boston.
Mr.. Hunter calls attention to ceEr
tain facts in regard to the ownership
of property based on the census. He
shows that "a per cent of the farmers
in this country are renters and nearly
10 per cent of the farms are mort
gagged. The census for 1900 shows
that more than half the families in
the United States do not own homes.
The case is at it's worst in the cities.
In Boston 81 per cent and in New
York (Manhattan) 81 per cent do not
own their own homes. The property
of the nation is so divided that one
family in every 100 owns more prop
erty than is owned by all the remain
ing ninety.nine.
