PROEL

Disc ing the vast possibilities
result gfrom the introduction Of
foreign labor into this section the
Macon Telegraph says that TO the
Thoughtful observer 1t Is apparent
that we IN the south are upon the
eve of what must prove q revolu-
ton in the unskiIled labor world.
In other words, the field occupied
hitherto by the negro as Iaborers
and servants Is being rapidly
deserted by them. How this
increasing shortage is to be sup
piled is one of the great problems
Of the day. 1t viii not down.
Skilled labor is scarce enough, but
the unskiIled Is scarcer. The
servant question is ever present.
We naturally look to the impor.
tation Of white servants, but they
do not as yet come to the South.
Something might be done in the
direction Of developing the white
help of this kind among our OWL
people, if people in poverty could
be educated ont of the erroneous
idea that il is degrading to dc
domestic work about the house. OF
gardens, or to drive plow.
There are many boys and girls
coming to work age-the age Of
use, We might more properly say
in our orphan home, as well as in
the homes Of poverty. These
should be sought out and induced
to take positions In private
families, as helpers to the heads
Of those families, and taught that
it is no disgrace to work with the
hands. AIImen cannot ssliye by
their wits" nor can all women &c
the pace Of society" Some must
work with their hands.
''The negroes are not wholly tt
blame for deserving the farm, the
kitchen and washtub; nor are the
whites to be expected to seek
eagerly after these deserted jobs.
'FThere is considerable blame al
the door of Mrs. Money and Mr.
Wealth. Rapidly increasing pros
perity and wealth has turned the
heads of men and women. They
leave off the simpler life, too often
and set pace Of extravaganza and
show, which in turn upsets theiI
socially ambitious but poorer
neighbors, and away they GO A
place in the society columns oftht
daily newspapers is more greatly
to be desired than sound mind
in healthy body which comes al
the reward of useful employment
in the day and restful sleep a
night.
F'The incidence of ease is no
only harmful to thosei ndulging it
but it is harmful also to others. ,
