WHY THE POOR---ALWAYS!

,child who have to endure it, the ques-
ton arises: How can present poverty
benefit those who are now rich?
We hear it from the pulpit that con-
ltributions to the destitute serve to keep
alive the generous impulses of the
rich. This is true, but there is some
thing else: Poverty teaches valuable
lessons in optimism. A Wilkins Mic
awber, even though he be not shiftless,
has a peculiar courage; he S always
expecting something to turn up.
When a rich mans project fails to
materialize, he is often too ready to
declare that everything has already
turned down. There is a hitch in the
arrangements for some social function.
and the millionairess weeps many bit
ter tears, while Mrs. Wigs, in destitu
ton, puts trouble deep down in her
heart and Sets on the lid.
The poor man has been sick and out
of work. After tireless day of fruit
less endeavor to find employment, he
comes home to renew his courage and

wealth may be pacing a polished floor,
in extreme misery, because cotton is
of a point or two; his wife and daugh
tiers may be fretting because the pros
poets are that their new car cannot
have six cylinders.
To be sure there is much squalor and
complaining misery among the poor,
and there is much genuine happiness
among the rich; but if one were to set
himself to find the social or financial
level most prolific of optimists, would
he not be likely to locate it among peo-
pie who are fairly content with small
means?
Once there was country woman
who visited in a great city and then

Eye have the poor always with you.
Although poverty. is word tina
frightens, and always is long time
this statement must be true, for Mat
thew said it, and Mark said it, anc
John said it; furthermore, centuries
before, Moses said, THE poor shall
never cease out of the land" The YER
lest skeptic, taking thought, would
have to confess that this Scripture has
never failed, that it is'now being full
filled, and that the future holds no
promise of universal wealth, or of an
equal distribution of comfort and con-
veniences.
Since we are always to have the poor
with us, the question sometimes whis-
pers itself in our ears: Why! Why
are there always to be poor people
What divine purpose does poverty
server"
In the first place, poverty, rot of the
starvation type, of course, but of the
type which causes the parents to Dc
and systematic in the
home, and anxious about the education
and the future of their children, saves
many a poor father and mother from

obedience to what might otherwise he
inclination.
AS to the children who grow up in
the homes of the poor-if that poverty
be not too servile and too grinding,
the discipline of endurance there re-
ceived is valuable training for after
life.
Andrew Carnegie is rather severe on
the rich, in his assertion that there is
only one generation between shirt
sleeves and shirt-sleeyes; but if all the
leading business and professional men
were interviewed, in any great Amer
lean city, stories enough could be Sc

of the stories would be almost tragic,
and some of them would read like fairy
tales.

AGRICULTURE THE ONLY UNI
YERSAL INDUSTRY

Farm and Fireside, the national far.l
paper published at Springfield, Ohio,
contains in its current issue an articue
entitled Real Rural Banks" by James
B. Norman, who has been in the en-
ploy of the Department of Agriculture
at Washington. Mr.. Norman gives
complete account of the various Euro
pean systems for extending credit t.
bankers. Recently there has been wide
discussion of this matter in our own
country. The Importance of the sub
ject of agricultural credit and cooper
alton in the United States led to the ap-
pointing of Commission to visit Euro
pean countries to study the various
systems in operation. This Commits
sion has studied these various systems
of the different European countries AM
is shortly to report to Congress on the
matter. The following is an extra31
from the article:
Governments are slowly recognize
ing that agriculture is the only uni
versal industry, and that its encourage
ment is JUSTIFIED by the results which
accrue to the whole nation. For my
part can see little difference in the
government aiding rural credit than il
aiding agricultural colleges and exper-
iment stations, excepS that in the form
er case the state or government only
lends money, where as in the latt II
case it spends it. And the state or ma
tional government will be practically
sure to get its money beack ii it should
be loaned to promote rural credit on
easy terms to farmers. In France,
where more has been done along this
4 line than in any other country, tho
rural banks have the reputation of
never having lost cent by the non
payment of loans by farmers. Govern
ment aid to rural-credit banks has put
agricultural on a firmer basis in
France than in any other country in
Europe.
''The benefits which come to farmers
as a result of the establishment of
rural-credit banks have been the means
of their spread into every country OF
Europe. Germany has 1857 rural
banks; Austria, $3.50; France, 1885,;
Italy, 1855; Belgium SAB, AMI ireland,
"a. In Germany the loans made in on,
year amounted to $145,O0O,OOO, and in
Austria to $S6,772,25S. The saving IL
interest to the farmers every year is an
item of no small figure"
