care for lot of able-bOdied people
There isn't a charity worker in
any of the cities North, whose salary
doesn't loom a great deal larger on
their mental horizon, than does the
welfare of the peaple among whom
they work. And these same people
are wise enough to realize what an
asset they are to the charity work
ers, and the rule works beautifully,
going and coming.
We have put a premium on pau
perism, and the pity of it is it has
taken us so long time to realize it.
When the immigrant learns that he

Walton, under vastly more easy con-
ditions than he did in "the Old Coun-

kitchens, free dispensaries and all
the rest of the mistaken fadS which
do not benefit in the least the proud
poor, who really need them.
IT we are to make Of these people
and their descendants, the citizens
We so badly need, it is poor policy
to place, at the outset, premium ON
their cupidity and greed. Granted
that there are many cases calling for
aid, the real cases are only discov-
cred when a poor old man drops in
the street, weak from hunger after
days of fasting, or the little girl is
found dying in the tenement, with
tuberculosis, because those to whom
she belonged were not able to send
her to a place where she might get
special treatment, and there were
none to interest themselves in look
ing up her case. This is not eXagger-
OF u
time you go through the paper of
any large city-and it seems to be
growing, even though we may point
with pride" to the fact that we, as
Nation, spend more on charity,
have bigger hospitals, orphan asy-
lums and homes under every name,
than any other people.
If we still have so much misery,
sickness and poverty that is uncared
for, isn't there something wrong
some where?
And have We been right along the
line we have taken?
