Dabbling With Symptoms

Some charity workers who find
homes for juvenile victims of poverty
appeared before the Legislative com
mittee on appropriations recently. Al
ter rendering an admirable account
of their stewardship, they asked for
an increase in their stipend. Cues
toned by member of the committee,
something like the following dialogue
followed:
But you say that you found homes
for these unfortunates last year. Why
doesn't that end it?'
Because there are even more that
need homes this year"
Then what you did last year didn't
cure the real difiiculty?'
"Oh no! You see the condition OF
these poor people seems to get worse
and worse every year
Then if we give you more money
this time, you will have to come
back for yet more later on"
probably
We'll If we go on in this way can
you see any limit to the amount of
money that the State will have to
spend in charitable work during the
years to Gomez"
No"
Then instead of fooing around
with these few unfortunate cases.
why don't you go to work to cure the
difficulty that is producing them
"Oh we wouldn't know how. That
is something we've never studied
about"
Some day when the burden of char
ity has become heavy enough, our
people will awake to the fact that it
is a great deal cheaper and better to
prevent poverty than to try and cure
it's symptoms. We are somewhere
near that point already.

BOYS AND GIRLS AGRICULTURE
AL CLUB WORK.
An interesting feature of the weeks
program will be an address by A. A.
Head of Waterville, secretary of the
Laymen's Christian Federation Move
ment in Maine. on Cooperative Work
With Boys. This will be given on
Tuesday evening, March I, and will
be followed by discussion of boys
and girls club work. Plans are be-
ing formed to take up the organiza-
ton of boys and girls agricultural
clubs as an important part of the
agricultural extension work OF the
University. In their plans for or
SANITATION and direction OF these
clubs the work will be done in CO
operation with the officers of the
Maine State Grange, Pomona and sub
q, dinate Oranges, State superinten-
cent of schools, and the Secretary
OF the Laymens Christian Fedora
ton. This movement has gained con-
siderable Roadway in many states of
the country. 1t was first taken up
in New York state quite a number
Of years ago. and at the present time
there are more tain 5000 boys and
GIRLS connected with the different
clubs in the state. These clubs not
crly carry on educational work, but
organize contests among the mem
bers. The boys contests are directed
along the lines of raising and eXhi-
biting different farm crops; and the
girls in sewing and cookery. Invita-
ton has been extended to different
boys clubs located in the vicinity of
Orono and it is expected that
large number will be in attendance
at this meeting.
As special inducement for the PEG
pie to attend the Farmers Week
course, the different railroads of he
state have offered reduced rates for
the entire week Board and room
can be secured either at Orono, Ban
gor or Old Town, ranging in price
from $100 to $50 per day, each per-
son. 1t would be best for anyone de-
string board and room to make re-
seryation in advance.
Programs are now ready for distri-
button and will be forwarded on ap-
rlieation to the College of Agrieul-

That isn't a particularly cheerful
story and we shouldn't repeat it eX

the great seal of the L. S Department,
and local events have repeatedly dem

isn't it about time to profit by such
lessons?
The thriving town Of Brewster \.
Y, affords a shining example. Dur
ing a brief stop there few years
ago, we took the trouble to inquire
what industry made that attractive
burg, and ELECTED the information
that it was merely the county seat and
market town for the farming country

and the money thus distributed made

The Board of State Assessors re
ported to the Legislature their valua-
ton of the Maine Central Railroad
system as about forty-two million
dollars. According to the company
annual report. the outstanding bonds
amount to over forty-fye millions,
while the dividend paying stocks
bring the total capitalization above
sixty-eight millions. But then, no
doubt the assessors were operating
on the two-thirds valuation basis that
is so generally prevalent.
