not make use of the experience of others

Editor, Times: The Salvation Army

street Saturday in behalf of the winter
relief work among the needy poor. This
matter has received very little attention
in the last couple weeks by the public in
general and the consequences are that
we have had to borrow from the funds
of the local work to keep it agoing.
There has apparently been some ques-
ton about the need of this work here.

need for it and | can't get funds to carry
It as far as / would like TO. as / would
like to carry it into homes more than !

plan whereby this can be remedied with
very little expense to the public in gen

CURRENT COMMENT
A Progressive Mortified.

This long, hard winter is coming to a
close pretty soon. cheerful thought
in this, anyway. Now when the sun
shines on both sides of the road let us
take hold and lift for the town. By
united effort, and this alone, much may
be accomplished toward putting North
field among the progressive towns of the
state. No matter whether it is the hotel
project, or anything else this get.togeth
er spirit seems to be in the air. Cement
it, keep it warm, and all up for anything
that win help the town. In any commu-
nifty there is bound to be difference of
opinion as to how this or that problem
should be approached. Talking things
over, frequent get togethers, and in any
way that seems desirable, should be the
order of the day in this town. One hard
headed man at the meeting the other
night at the Brown library said, at
should not be- They are talking of q ho-
tel project" He said. and rightly, too,
1T should be WE are going to do things"
This is the proper spirit. Northfeld

constant appeal from all sorts OF organi-
zations for funds to carry on relief work
among the ruined nations across the sea
and the response has been liberal and
continuous. Still there is an end to the
streams of benevolence on the part OF
many givers. They have only so much
to bestow, and if the money is diverted
to other channels in response to the per.
sistent calls there is nothing left for
home consumption.
The sufferers abroad should be assist
ed, but there are needs in our own coun-
try that must not be neglected Children
here are orphaned and abused and neg
lected and are homeless rs certainly as
in Belgium. Probably as pitiful tales Of
suffering could be related by charity
workers right here in Vermont as any
that have been featured abroad to stir
the sympathes of the benevolent. There
are cruel and poverty stricken parents
here who starve and abuse or desert their
and their condition must be
alleviated by charitable institutions. To
dry up the stream of beneficence at its
fountain head. or TO divert it into for
eign channel is TO do great injustice TO
future citizenship. That Is strange
idea of charity which consists in neglect
Of ones own in its efforts to help those
who are on the other side of the world.
If there is only so much money to be dis
pensed. by all means let II be divided
between two objects which are equally
