FROM W0MANS
POINT OF VIEW

Every man and woman, who IS self
supporting OF beyond the need Of finan-
ciaI assistance. should do something each
year for the great cause Of charity. Il
matters little in what form the aid takes.
the giving Is the real point az issue.
Some contribute 10 church charities.
others TO public ones. There are number
less private charities 10 which friends
and acqUaintances are expected 10 con-
tribute. but the most popular way Of
drawing money from our pockets IS in
the form OF entertainment. and q good
deal Of money Is raised in that fashion.
There is this TO be said against it-only
a part OF the funds goes into the good
work There are expenses-heavy ones,
scmeumes-but as il is the only form
" Nhich appeals 70 many women. It IS TO
be recommended There should be no
need Of public giving-there should be
work for those who want II, and those
who do not want Il should be made 10
earn living Of some sort by a plan
similar 10 that In penal institutions. The
unfortunate should be cared for by the
government
OF course, never expect to see such an
ideal condition. but that does not interfere
with my belief that the thing is possible.
Lazy men and women. dissipated men and
women, should not be allowed 70 bring
misery upon others, even though they in
sist upon throwing away their own
chances for comfort But while we are
waiting for the millennium there is a deaf

ought to assume our part Of the burden

saves her papers and magazines and rags
and discarded clothing for the Salvation
Army agent, who makes periodical calls.
She says Il is the most she can do. and
know that II is much more than many
prosperous women do for the cause OF
charity.
suppose that everything can be put to
use by somebody-the dificulty lies in
finding the places OF need But Is not
that 2 part Of the work we should as

There are men and women who are will

Of investigating and the hard work OF
distribution. so if we do not give We have
no excuse save selfshness. We have a
deal 10 say against the rich and fashion

not for the kind hearts OF men and
women Of that class, the misery OF the
poor would be more than trebied. and
many OF these open-hznded persons are
not afraid OF hard work in such cause
