PRESIDENT SCHURMAN
SEVERELY REBUKED

In recent statement about Rookie.
feller's gift of $32.oo0,oo0 to favorite
educational institutions, Mr.. schur-
mann made this unfortunate break:
IF that money goes for the civilization
Of the South, 1T Is NOT TAINTED."
That gratuitous, fling is on par
with the tmpudence Of the Settlement
Workers, who imagine that because
people are poor they are at liberty to
insult them
Well, Schurmann got what he was
looking for. John Temple Graves, of
Atlanta, is not one who kow-tows be-
fore college presidents or other presi-
dents either. Here Is the way he went
after Schurmann:
"The civilization of the South in
deed! Such sentiment, event from
a college president, argues an obtuse-
ness of observation and a narrowness
of prejudice, in which this region Of
the country would unfit him for the
occupancy of country school.
"This gracious, gentle, charming,
wise and accomplished South, please
God, is to be civilized, according to
Jacob Sohurmann, by the tanned money
of Rockefeller. Why, there are circles
of society in the South to which Meth
er the manners nor the culture of ia
cob Schurmann would admit him upon
terms of social equality. and yet,
through his nasal twang and his cold
provincial prejudice, he presumes to
speak of the millions of bloated
Croesus as being set to the civilization
of a land like this.
Sometimes the insolent ignorance
of these arrogant and Ill hammered &C.
cidents in and out of the Northern ed
ucational circles make us angry, but
in this instance they move US to mirth
and laughter. l!
:To one who is much acquainted
| with the personality and uncourteous,
and the uncultured manners of Jacob
Schurmann, his illusions to the South
assumes the absurdity of comic opera
| or theatrical burlesque."

UNIONS MAKE WORLD BETTER.
The People Must Not Forget What
Organized Labor Has Accomplish.
ed for Humanity.

What ever may be the offenses of
organized labor, we must not forget
what it has accomplished for human
ity.
In the early part of the last century
children of and 8 years of age were
lowered 600 feet below the earth in
England and compelled to labor in the
dark twelve and fourteen hours a day.
At first candle was given. the
younger children, but after they be-
came accustomed to the darkness of
the mines this expense was avoided
The first time in history that the
public ever dared to ask parliament for
laws to protect women and children
was in the year 1900, after an cpl
dem1c Of fever among these UNDER
ground workers. The protection which
parliament accorded was to restrict the
hours Of labor for children to twelve
and to set the age at 9 years when a
child might be employed. This action
ginning Of organized protest against
established custom.
However, bad the conditions in Eng
land may be today, they are certainly
Elysian compared to those which ex-
| listed before labor unions were known
Yet prominent Christian people de-
nounced the government when 1t first
! began to legislate on the age and hours
for children to labor, saying it had
no right to interfere with the liberties
of the employer. -,

Barnum and other philanthropic wo-

which still exist in overtaxing thu
