clawing the while at floor or carpet The
thing that can be done has been done
repeatedly, and progress made, but at
what tremendous cost of energy and
effort,
One of the reasons why the war work,
war gardens and the like went with such
astonishing rapidity was that public of
fcials, instead of hindering to the best
Of their ability, really helped and were
ready to help.
Take the case of Register Webster of
Kings County, which is peculiarly llumi-
mating. At first glance his Office would
not be intimately connected with garden
ing, but he made it so, and, because the
records We're in his office he looked up
every bit Of available unused land, COM
municated with owners and placed at the
disposal of the public thousands of little
gardens. He also distributed booklets
and information and made his office q
very fountalnhead of agricultural Wis
dom.
Another man in his place might figura-
tiVely-or llterally--haVe maintained the
attitude Of his feet on his desk and
: serene Indifference to the cause of any
seeker after garden. But Register
Richardson Webster was different, and
so Register Webster's deeds have been
chroncled by the National War Garden
Commission. News of them is to be sent
to other registers all over the country.
that they may observe what possibilities
for serving the public lie in their hands
so far little candle sheds it's BEAM"
Other registers will bless or execrate
him, according to their conception of the
duty of public officials, for setting such
an example.
This is merely cited to show what one
man may make, if he chooses, of a sup
poscdy unimportant office.

We tolerate these things simply be-
cause it is easier to tolerate them than

crossed in our own affairs to bother
about our brothers children Here a
boy has stolen something-there a boy
has murdered some one! SO long as he
has stolen nothing from us and muir
dered no one belonging to us, let us for
get him! If only he can be rushed off
or be liable to be affected by his evil
tendencies we are perfectly satisfied
But that is hardly an intelligent way
of looking at it. Surely, it is not bust
nesslike way of looking at it. Looking
at it from q very selfish point of view
isn't it our concern just what kind of
boy the rcformatory is going to send
back to us?
Suppose these boys sent away meet
other boys who are even worse, and sup
pose also they meet many boys who are
Inherently good, who got there by mis-
take or because of improper guardian

their notions of lfe-as they always

but the poorest mother is infinitely bet
ter than the poorest man for this work
of child raising And child raising is
what the work of the reformatory, in
complicated form, really is.
Let us, for the sake Of balance, have
both men and women in the reiorma-
tory; but if the eyes of the states moth
erhood will be fixed upon these institu
lions, if women will look after them and
have the power to clean them, there is
more hope that they will be clean.
Roughly speaking, the reformatory is

Boys are gathered, tabulated, classified,
according to physical appearance, poured
through the same daily processes and
finally sent out, back into socicty-lin-
ished products. Boys who steal, boys
who play truant, boys who build fires,
boys who play ball on the streets, boys
who have bad homes, and boys who are

he wants to; the drowning person may
not.
So With poverty. The social worker may
apparently be living in it, in the poor
neighborhood and all that, but the terror
is not there for him, the parayzing fear
of what the loss Of his job invoIves-pos-
sibe eviction, inability to feed little chill
dren to provide fuel-his position is by
no means the same.
With better social justice, a purer
democracy, the need Of social work will
pass away. A we'll ordered, comfortable
household does not need a district nurse,
excellent and useful as she may be- We
have already channels enough whereby
this social and industrial justice may be
accomplished by the ordinary means
Of the ballot and by placing men and
women of integrity and vision in ordi-
nary public Offices
We have been doing a good deal OF
work along the lines Of "Americanizingv
our foreign-born population, giving them
an idea, chiefly by lecture and pamphlet,
of what America stands for and what
are our American ideals. But especially
do we need to practise the democracy we
preach. Many of the strangers within
our gates have more real belief in de-
mocracy than ourselves-at least they
had enough belief to nave made them
leave their homes and the world they
knew and come to us for the ideal they
believed was eXemplifed.
1t is up to us, as citizens of d great
democracy, to see that they find our
earlier ideals still actuating US; that
they have fair and just treatment-evcn
kindly treatment; homes that arc warm;
food that they can earn enough 10 pay
for, and that they may find share Of
happiness in this little old New York
of ours.

trial justice--which, after ALL is what
our people need, rather than charity.
And the social worker himself would
improve. He would become more human,
less certain of his or her own infalibl-
lty. AS it is, social uplift, like the min
istry, affords the workers wholly I'M
fair degree Of satisfaction in COM
parison with other men and women in
other professions. The rest Of US at the
end of the days work have merely
earned our living, done our plain duty in
discharging ordinary obligations, the
neglect of which would have been dis
grace The performance of these is no
especial credit to US

Extravaganza of Architecture
Economy i'm Men

The officers in the average reforma-
tory arc the very worst men obtainable,
usually ignorant, stupid, and often inn
moral. The reason for this economy
You will find that millions of dollars
have been spent on beautiful sites, up-to-
date, artistic buildings, beautiful cot
tages, excellent equipment, anything and
everything that adds to outward appear
ance and fulhls sanitary laws And TO
make up for this expenditure there is
economy in the hiring of men.
The average teacher i'll reformatory
gets about $50 month. Of course, no
really capable teacher will take such an
extraordinarily difficult position for
such compensation. The result is that
the institution is run by people whom
