RABBI VS. AID PovERTY.

While Rabbi Stephen Wise, in his
address before the Northern Indiana
Teachers convention, dwelt upon an
ole theme. in dealing with the Crime
OF Poverty" his treatment Of it was
IN a manner to some people compar-
atively new. In sociology all the good
in all the religions of the world can
clasp hands. and shedding their theo-
logical aspects. undertake a service
70 man, and the upbuilding Of the
race, TO the credit Of each OF them.
1t was really sociology that the rabbi
was advocating, with the proper edu-
cation OF the youth Of the land at the
basis Of IT,
And this education Is decidedly es-
sential Throughout the ages the
world has preached charity as an allie
Walton for poverty but never until
quite recent years has anything been
undertaken TO render poverty less
probable. 1t is about the most unpop-
ular thing in the world too, that a
man can undertake 20 advocate. The
forces OF entrenched wealth are
against It and that is a most formula

then to pay back what they please as
their victims sink lower and lower I'M
til they need it,
Fitting the minds of the rising
generation for such humanitarian
service as Will be able to meet these
conditions is q splendid thing to talk
about where instructors Of those
minds are brought together. We hear
a great dell now-a-days about our
school system resulting in impractical
BILE training. While making a living
is important the ethical side of life
should not be overlooked. We may
we'll regret that so much of the criti-
cism OF our school system should ema-
nate from men whose main interest is
TO keep down the advancement of eth
zeal training. Observing that with the
growth of intelligence the ways of the
oppressor is growing harder, it is but
natural that he should seek TO stem
the tide and head off much as posi-
bic such brain cultivation AS fits

and placing him above the dollar. seek
TO secure for him such rewards as
justice demands.
We may quite expect, on the heels
Of the convention, a world of criticism
on certain of the utterances that have
been made before the teacher body.
and Rabbi Wise most certainly will
not escape. Men grown rich on the
sweat of others regard any spread Of
humanitarian doctrine. such as may
inspire an inclination to sometime clip
their wings, are quite certain TO rebel,
hut it is too late. The religion OF the
future. and likewise the politics of the
future, are bound to assume more Of

the past and the reactionary who
thinks he can head it off will fail
just as truly as did the small dog,

 This Is the first time we have been accused of boosting any ball player. The attention of the Bir- mingham baseball management Is called to the above.
 Nashville was stopped yesterday by Chattanooga. It was about time. Dannie Clark was the star in the field yesterday, accepting nine chances without an error. Clark also walloped the ball for timely hits.
 Tod Sloan was also on the job with his bludgeon-the right fielder making two timely hits, one two- bagger.
 Hemingway, who usually stars at the bat and in the field, had little to do, having only one put out and no assists. At the bat Hemingway appeared four times-and that's all. After all the feature of the game was the grand pitching of Dickie Robertson Holding the Gulls to two hits is some hurling feat
