LETTERS TO EDITOR
Poor Always With Us
To the Editor of The Age-Herald.

To the Editor of The Age-Herald. The poor are always with us, and will remain until the end of the world Many things cause poverty. Reverses come mostly from a want of good judgment, but most of the poverty and want is the
 result of bad habits, and a defiance of the laws of God and man. Who can look upon sickness and distress without sympathy
 ard pain, no matter the cause or the vice that brought it on.
 The Savior was merciful to all. l can- not believe that God brings us into ex- istence only for this natural life. We shall live again. All nature is conclusive proof of this, and somewhere the mighty in- teligence that made and rules the world will give us clearer conceptions of his | gift of the Cross, which is only the good and great King.
 | All men should work To be deprived
 of labor, man would soon get tired of I himself. put Tn being industrious and am | bilious, we should not forget the real good of life love and liberality 1 While the prosperous are kind and lib-
 eral to the sick. and needy, the latter should be grateful. There are none of us 1 poor people that are not able to keep oul bodies clean. as there is plenty of water and soap and bath is always refreshing and healthful.
 1 Let us all try to be better men, better
 citizens. better husbands. and better l fathers "Peace on earth, good will to- ward men, J. LAWLER DARBY, 1 Birmingham, December 20. 1911.
