WORKING FoR A LIVING

WOKklNJ FOk A LlNlNG.
10 the Editor Of THE EVENING
JOURNAL.
Sir. The man or the woman who
works for living has to put up with a
great many inconvenience most Of
us do. We find the dismal grind wear
ing ON nerves and patience at times.
Then, when we look about us and see
Others struggling on. bearing their bur
dens and not complaining any more than
enough TO keep their hands in, the old
world changes from the gloomy spoJ
which il mas been pictured into a com
Portable, agreeable and quite commodious
place OF abode. When necessity cOmpcls
ono to work for living. no matter OF
what nature the work may be, If there
be q daily profit the grind Is alleviated,
the burden is ligbtened; for the day is
coming TO that person when necessity
will not be- so compelling.
But If that happy day when compul
sion will not bc so wearing seems a long
way OF. there is still comfort to be
gained to the worker. Let him look
about the world and sec some OF the
things which come 20 those who neglect
their opportunities TO work. Honest
work never got anybody into jail Hon.
est work never impelled one TO do muir
der. Indeed. there is not one item in
the whole gamut of crime which can be
traced 60 honest work. Crime is born
in minds not engaged in useful work. 1t
is done by hands that lack useful occu-
patton. Not one of the thousands Of in
mates in penal institutions of the world
ever arrived at that unhappy goal
through honest work. Mighty few men
have even accomplished anything useful
in the world without work. Men do not
arrive at responsible positions, either in
private or public life. without the ele-
waiting influence of work.
OF course. there is a popular notion
that work is degrading; that the man or
woman who works loses some of the at
tributes of manhood or womanhod and
becomes unfit to associate with those
who. through circumstances beyond their
control or which do not seek the light
of day, are permitted TO live in idleness.
But work. nevertheless. remains the
prime cause of the worlds progress in
the arts and sciences, and in literature
and mechanics. The man or the woman
who performs the most menial of tasks
is a filter object of the worlds respect
than those whose proudest boas. is that
their hands were never soilcd nor thcir
bodies burdened by labor.
