WHAT'S THE USE OF SOCIAL surveys?
Why Facts Of City Conditions Are Necessary Basis for
Sound Civic Progress.

from cities have been determined by sew
eral factors-chiefly the timeliness of the
proposed survey and its probable influence
on other cities. AS to timeliness, con-
sideration is made of the probability Of
the project being adequately financed,
and of its receiving representative local
backing. II a city cannot see sufficient
value in a survey to be willing to pay
for it, especially when all overhead
charges are, borne by an outside organiza-
ton, it is considered not ready for .
survey.
Moreover, the undertaking should be a
community enterprise, aimed to advance
the well being not of any particular in
terest or set of interests but Of the COM
munity as generally as possible. The
survey is an effort toward a democratic
solution of local problems. and therefore
must be shouldered by representatives OF
all interests and groups in the popula-
ton Emphasis has been laid upon the
Importance of the work being done by
persons with adequate training and ex-
perience. Emphasis has also been placed
upon the importance of cooperation with
national organizations SO that the local
program following the survey, whether
II involves housing, organized charity.
prison reform. or other special effort.
VIII be in harmony with the standards
set up by the national organizations in
the various fields.
Practical, Not Theoretical.
The question has sometimes been
raised: Why make surveys over and
over again in cities all over the country?
Won't a few sample surveys cover prac-
ideally all the city problems and thus
supply TO all cities the proper programs
Tor Improvement" But conditions vary
ia different cities. and the citizens Of
one Iocailty will not be convinced Of a
ioesi public health or recreation problem
merely because some other city in a dis
taht State has one. Each city will not
and should not be satisfied unless the
study is made Of its own actual condi-
tons
The surveys conducted by the Depart
rnent Of Surveys and Exhibits have thus
far taken four general forms. The first
ID quick neighborhood study to gather
such salient facts as many indicate some
Of the principal social and civic needs.
Such a neighborhood survey was made,
for example, in district OF Old Brook
lyn. comprising over 100000 people. One
organization of the Old Brooklyn Civic
League with a paid social worker now

cities in two-thirds Of the States have
become interested. Nearly a score Of
cities have actually completed surveys So
great became the interest. and so urgent
the desire for scientific thoroughness in
the work, that the Russell Sage Founda-
ton last October organized a department
of surveys and exhibits In these nine
months over 100 cities-from HALIFAX TO
San Diego, and Atlanta TO indian Head.
Saskatchewan-have asked for surveys
or advice in starting local survey move
ments. In many cases requests are back
ed by local commercial Organizations,
chambers of commerce and boards Of
trade. Business men are recognizing the
commercial value of healthier, better snc
more comfortable developing conditions
for all the city's jewellers.
Reckoning with New Forces.
The essence of the survey idea rests On
a recognition of important changes ia
human relationships due TO tremendous
industrial development, the cfty~sfo
movement immigration. the influx Soof
men in industry and other causes. With
these changes have come new problems
calling for new diagnoses and study TO
learn whether the old machinery for in
dividual and social advance is fitting the
new needs, whether the community has
been keeping abreast of scientific prog
ress. We have been experimenting with
instruments to get at, register and inter-I
pref the situation. The creation Of the
new department in the Russell Sage
Foundation may be regarded as recog-
MIXING in a new and larger way than
heretofore, the survey as an organized
method of social discovery. and the ex-
hibit as an agency for popular interpre-
tasion- Their usefulness has been demon
strated as means to be employed in audit
ing present efficiency, in securing cor
receive action and in constructive plan
ming for the future.

That means that every time you en-
franchise 100 white women you also give
the right Of suffrage to lol negro women.
A hundred white men could only escort

SIMPLE EXPLANATION.

"Frost year, fruit year; year OF
snow, fruit will grow" "a year OF
snow, a year Of plenty" and "a late
spring never deceives," all three Of
which mean the same thing, are very
easily explained. If the winter is a
normal one, with plenty of FROST and
snow, and spring comes at the right
time, it is not possible for the fruit
trees to blossom prematurely and be
later killed by hard frost or de-
stroyed by alternate thawing and
freezing. Consequently, all this
proverb means, and its meaning is
cutie obvious, is that normal sea-
sons mean normal fruit crops.

PICKLE BROWNS IDEA.

Fatty Sanders and Pete Simpson were
playing throw and catch out back OF the
Methodist parsonage. Fatty never caught
the ball, but he was so big il couldn't
get past him and so he made a pretty
good catcher.
Pickle Brown. the ministers son, climb
ed over the back fence and was going to
yell for first bat at one old cat when he
saw Stats Perkins coming looking like a
dog that's been caught stealing sheep.
So he waited. Stats always had an idea.
Ma licked me- said Stats. "She said
they want moren two out o fifteen
sticks o. kindlin' j split but was too long
fer the stove. She licked me good, in the
woodshed.'
1t was funny about Stats. He always
told when be got licked. The other boys
never did. But then grown folks said
he was going to be a lawyer, or q book
agent, or a poet, or something like that
when he got big.
Does il hurt?' asked Pickle. He never
got licked, but he would rather and have
il over with than to learn twelve verses
In the Bible by heart every time he was
extra bad.
Nav. didn't hurt much.'' shrugged
Stats. Lets get even.
WHO ye goin' to git even WITH
