BY a recent Afternoon census, dur
ing a hot spell in New York City.
127,729 children were counted while
pla ing in the hot streets of the great
city, forced there by the unbearable
ies CT the houses.
Just think of all these children
more than. the entire population of
scr e large cities!
The children of Coyington, or any
know, do not appreciate their bless
ings. am sure that it does not
occur to them that they are in a
corner of Gods, great playground,
where His birds sing. His crickets
chiry, and His flowers grow. They
are not grateful for the cool shade of
the spreading trees, whose protecting
leaves are stirred by pure. sweet
breezes, uncontaminated by foulness
OF any kind.
Ii these same children were trans
ported to some not, crowded city,
where they were forced to seek the
almost blistering pavement of streets
fanked by solid walls of houses. as
their only playground, these same
little. people would then know tee
blessings that had been theirs, and
would, no doubt, pray to the good
God to let them come back again.
But, after all, the 127,729 children
OF New York may be happy playing
ball and ring around-a-rosy on tho hot
for they probably know
nothing better-neither the feel Of
cool, soft earth to hot little feet nor
the delight Of breeze-shaken-tree-
shade to tired young bodies We are
told that it Ia only remembering
happier things that means sorrows
and discomfort.
And the children, even more than
to grown ups. isn't this going back
to the undesirable age even to suf-
fering a keener cruelty than to allow
them to remain in ignorance OF the
happier things, and doesn't this
cruelty entensify when it means .
degeneration and dissertation Of poor
little bodies, youn minds, and their

kuGSt OIL MIS-. ~. u. w llllAlASs
The following is taken from the
st. Francisviiie True Democrat, and
shows what credit the women of Gov
ington are getting for the WORK they
are trying to do in this community:
MRS. e. r. Moses and children lef.
Monday for their home in Covington,
concluding a visit to Mrs. II. N. Levy
and family. Mrs. Moses is prominent
5 in the civic league work of her ho,ae
town, and she says that in addition
to its forming a pleasant diversion
from household routine, that its gem
eral effect has been to broaden her
outlook in life and give her self-re-
lance in wider fields of endeavor.
The league at Covington is one OF
the most progressive in the State.
Thus two of West Felfcianas trans
planted young women, Mrs. Moses
and Mrs. Charles Howell of Kinder.
are doing good service for civic up
1 building in their respective towns.
why cannot some other woman do as
much for St. Francisville. All our
talent, energy and desire for civic
improvements have surely no. emit
grated. All that is wanted is lead
or. Will not some one volunteer
Anent the work OF women here
and elsewhere. Has it ever occurred
to you, my dear woman reader. that
after all is said and done, 1t is COM
paratively little that women can ac-
complish against the odds OF mans
vote and political pull?
No matter how earnest their ef-
forts may be. NO matter how worthy
their cause, they are helpless. ant;
fight to no avail, should tneir course
not fall in lime with masculine APP
prevail or some mans political ~
terest.
This is not sentiment. bu. stera
fact which has been clearly demon
ssrated. Whether this work be II
! the cause Of humanity or civic good.
although it may have taken months
of patient labor to accomplish, It
can be, and has been annullcd, simply
wiped out In day by some disap-
proving man without ever the knoWl-
cage OF the very women w.iO have
wrought the good. Protest? Pro-
testaticn would be Jest:
This is drcary commentary, ba.
alas! true one.
