EVENING CHAT
BY RUTH CAMERON.

1 have been rebuked.
My offense is using the expression
middle class several time in q re-
cent article.
My censor tells me that he is sur
prised that such a democratic person
as 1 have seemed to be, should speak
SO much of Classes He reminds
me that according to a certain very
good authority all people are born free
and equal, and that the possession or
lack of money does not make one man
better or worse than another and that
there is no such thing as class
1 accept the rebuke.
But 1 do not entirely agree with
the gentleman.
] admit 1 was at fault in the article
middle class, I did mean those with a
moderate amount of the world &
goods, and in so doing I went back
on my own conviction that class is not
founded on money.
But very heartily disagree with the
gentleman when he says there is no
such thing as class
There most certainly is such a
thing.
The most radical. the most demo-
cratic, the most socialistic or anarcT1-
istic person living must admit that
there are persons to whom he looks
up and other persons to whom he in
stinctively feels himself superior.
L am sure my censor himself if he
would be entirely honest would admit
having felt that same way
And in looking up he admits the ex-
| istence of a higher class In looking
down he comedies a lower.
But what is this class distinction
that we all feel founded on?
Well, there are some crude people
who make the possession of money
| their sole class criterion.
To them the millionaire, no matter
how ignorant, how coarse, how com
mon, how futile he may be, is of the
upper class.
And the man of poverty no matter
how refined, how we'll bred and well
educated, is to them of the lower
class.
But that is only one point of view.
My censor objects to it. 7 do my
self and 1 know you do.
But what then is our sense of class
distinction founded on?
What should we mean when we re-
fer to the upper class %
Well, that's just what I want you to
tell me. my friends.
Tits a subject on which have often
thought l had my own idea, but I'd
like to know what yours is.
The forum is open to you I hope
that besides my old friends some of
those who haven't yet joined us will
speak this time
Remembe not more than one hun
dred words, preferably less, so that
when l hold the symposium on this
subject, 1 can include many points OF
view.
