HOW TO HELP THE POOR

o o o o o o o o O o o o o o o o o o q
In these days Of stress and need,
which are SO. largely because Of the
mental attitude of the people, there
are several things to be considered,
1t seems to me, in trying to decide
how to be the most truly helpful to
the greatest number OF people.
In the first place, ii the people who
have money, would also have faith in
God, they would not keep their mon
ey out Of circulation. but would would
realize the truth Of the proverb that
HE that giveth to the poor, lendeth
to the Lord" apS when a thing is
%aDs t' e Him, il Y always repaid

from want. Not only will employment
keep people from want, but from be-
coming dependents and criminals.
The old saying that Prevention ie
better than cure" is just as true here
as in reference TO disease. To help
people to keep -.sy and independent
goes. a long way towards making them
decent. seIf-respecting people. OF
course, just as In the physical realm
when disease has come and L il toe

sought. and sometimes q palliative Ii

TOBACCO SALES IN
VARIOUS MARKETS
Bad Weather and Bad Roads
Make Business Dull in All
Tobacco Centres.

Again the weather conditions were
all against the leaf tobacco business.
Cold. harsh winds and snow, followed
by more cold. harsh winds and some
more snow, kept all OF the farmers in
all CT ,he tobacco growing sections OF
Virginia and North Carolina from
bringing TO the markets the little OF
the raw leaf they still have on hand
Because Of these conditions the deIiv-
cries on all OF the markets were great
~ curtnilcd and the sales generally
wer. light.
In Richmond deliveries were almost
altogether of railway shipped goods
the wagon offerings being very light
because OF the bad weather and the
bad roads. All OF the sales for the
week tiG not exceed 100000 pounds but
th-D we're OF the better stocks. and
there were not few good suncured
wrappers In the offerings. The buy
cr5 were on the alert, and they did
not allow anything to go begging and
hence the market was strong.
There is really very little more OF
tho suncured goods remaining in the
hands OF the farmers To be marketed
and the early or late marketing OF the
same depends very much on weather
conditions.
