PEOPLES COLUMN

TO the Editor of the Newark Post,
Dear Sir: What more fitting
time can | select for giving express
sion through your paper to
thoughts which have been troubling
me much Of late, than on this day,
set apart by all denominations, for
the presentation of tuberculosis
from the Pulpit to the Pew?
This town is installing a sewer,
thereby hoping to aid in stamping
out Typhoid. Now, what can be
done for the White Plague? I
would suggest that the Mayor and
Council, men Of intelligence, and
feeling for the good Of the whole
community, Immediately pass
law, prohibiting expectorating on
the streets, either on their own Or
others, sidewalks; and allow any
spectator OF such an offense to re
port the same and a fine be de-
manded from the prepetrator; the
fines to be used as a fund for the
Tuberculosis Hospital And this
law to be, not one IN name only,
but TO be strictly enforced. At the
end Of a year, think this thought
less, filthy practice may be broken
up. and quite a fund in Bank.
have been moved to write this
by what | have seen from our win
d0ws in a very quiet section; men
Of intelligence and refinement, i'm
migrants who know no better, spit
ting right and left, over ground on
which innocent little children play
by the hour. Only yesterday | saw
four. or five, or six, Of them crack,
ing waInuts on a pavement, anC
with their little fingers picking up
and swallowing the tiniest crumbs
they could find. Who knows wha'
microbes went down those LITTLE
throats?
/ Let this one incident be warn
ing to mothers, TO talk seriously t
their children about what they pu
| in their mouths, and to fathers
about the Importance OF cioanlines
in doors and on the streets.
Very respectfully,
Mary r. Croft.

Start 4 Club

If man wants to know what he /
thinks. he starts a club; and II he !
wants to be very sure, he calls a
convention. From the National
Cn3ertakers' Association and the +.
Launderers' League to the Chris |
tian Endeavor Tournament and the |
World S C0ngress-tha Midway
Plcasance of Piety-the conyen-
ton strides the world with y0cifer
business. The silence that de-
scends from the hills is filed with ,
its ceaseless din. The smallest /
hamlet in the land has learned to
listen reverent from afar TO the
vast insistent II, as the Voice OF
the Times.
Every idea we have is run into a
constitution. We cannot think
without a chairman. Our whims
have secretaries; our fads have by
laws. Literature is a club-PhlI-
osophy is a society. Our reforms
are mass meetings. Our culture IS
a summer school. We cannot mourn
our mighty dead without Carnegie
Hall and forty vice-presidents. We
remember our poets with trustees,
and the immortality of a genius is
watched by a standing committee.
Charity is an Association. The
ology is d set Of resolutions. Reh-
zion is an endeayor 10 be numerous
and communicative. We are the
.impenitcnt With crowds, convert
the world with boards, and save the
lost with delegates; and now Jesus
Iof Nazareth could have done 50
great a work without being on a
| Committee is beyond our ken.
What Socrates and Solomon would
have come to if they had only had
the advantages of conventions It
would be hard to say; but III these
davs. when the excursion train IS
applied to wisdom; when, having
little enough, we try to make 1t
more by pulling it about; when
secretaries urge us, treasurers dun
us, programs unfold out OF every
mail-where is the man who, guile
5 less-eyed, can look in his brother s
face; can declare upon his honor
that he has never been delegate,
never belonged to any thing, never
: been nominated, elected, imposed
OH. in his life.
Everything convenes, revolves
! petitions, adjourns. Nothing stays
adjourned. We have reports that
think for us, committees that dc
right for us, and platforms thai
spread their wooden lengths ovel
: all things we love, until there is
e hardly an inch Of the dear ole
e earth to stand on, where, fresh ant
