Sordid Cares of Teachers
Keller, in The Review

A. c. Keller, in The REVIEW,
 There are inalterable social laws that set the conditions of social recognition and recompense for all the various vo- cations. It would appear that they do this, in many cases, independently or in defiance of the findings of reason. Theoretically everyone believes in sound education; nevertheless, in prac- tice, that prime des.deratum can not be attained in full measure because the re-

wards of service in this line are far below the grade necessary to attract the most highly competent into it. It is not desirable that the rewards shall stand comparison with those in, say, business; for the best teaching must always have in it the elements of dis interested enthusiasm and of self -sacri- flee. But no one who is not a fanatic can contemplate a life. for himself and his, in which the proportion of sordid care is prospectively so great.

AN APPEAL IOs,AMERiCANs
FROM THE "NEAR EAST

Cardinal Gibbons has issued the
following appeal to the Christian
people of America: "The attempt to
'elieve and save the starving peoples
n the Near East deserves the sym
pathetic support of all Christian
people. Not only have the Christian
inhabitants of Turkey been impover-
ished and decimated by succession
Of wars, but deportation and mas
sacre have destroyed many fathers
and mothers, leaving hundreds of
thousands Of orphans to- be fed,
clothed and provided with homes.
The American Committee for Arme-
man and Syrian Relief is to under
take to raise, in January, a large
sum for this purpose. l hope that
Ill who have given freely for this
and other forms of war relief will
be generous still in the face of this
;reatest tragedy of the war;"

REAL! ESTATE MEN TO
B. FORM AssOcIATlON
Meeting to b Hold In Ilians.polis
ian. 9Th md 10th 70 Promote 8
!: =. Development Of State.

Land owners and dealers Of Min
nesota will organize a State Asscia-
tion and prepare to. take grip on
the problems Of development affect
ing all the interest of real estate.
This is the declared intention Of the
meeting which will be. held at, the
Radisson Hotel January 9Th and
10th. Real, estate men have never,
according to those urging a power
full State Association played J. the
part which there prominence in the
business has warranted, and conse-
quently the interests of real estate
men have never been given recogni-
tion proportional to the large tax
burden which it bears.
To show to the real estate men
themselves and the State at large
some of the possible benefits OF
such an Association and some of the
important development projects
which are to come soon before Min
nesota, a program, including speak
ers of state and nationwide promin-
ence has been prepared. Mr.. c. P.
Craig of Duluth has been successful
in securing from the United States
Steel Corporation the promise Of i'm
mediate expenditure of about $15,-
OO0,000.00 for steel mills. The direct
bearing of this project on the indus
trial development possibilities of
many cities in Minnesota, not only
near Duluth but throughout the
Northwest, because of a resulting
change in market conditions of the
primary products of steel, will be
discussed by Mr.. Craig and ]. L.
Record of Minneapolis.
The proposed State Highway Sys-
tenn, for which large bond issue
has been proposed, and which will
be one of the questions before the
next legislation, is another matter
directly affecting real estate inter-
ests over the entire State, and will
be considered at the Convention.
Matters of taxes will receive an
important place and in addition
there will be number of addresses
in regard to financing agricultural
projects, and matters of immigra-
ton and development. DR.. F. J. Al
way will present an address on ''The
Value Of State Soil Survey" and

HOW MUCH WOULD YOU . VII. -,
- GIVE TO SAVE 4 LIFE;
By Bruce Barton.

1 sometimes picture it to myself
this way. @..@=
Suppose that somewhere down
town in New York, or in Chicago or
St. Louis, there were a huge auction
room, where the lives of men and
of little children were on sale.
Suppose that every day the auc-
tioneer's red flag hung out as a sign
that on that day so many, men were
to be allowed to die; 50 many ,wo-
men; and so many little ones.
Allowed to die, just for the lack
of few dollars. Just for the want
of the little sum that would ransom
them.
Suppose that were the case, say
to myself; could I possibly stay
away? Is there any argument 1 could
give to myself that would keep me
from going there day after day, and
buying with all my power? Buying
men and women and children, at
lars that would mean life to them?
It's not very pretty picture; yet
compared to the pictures that have
seen from stricken Armenia and Sy-
ria, and all the empires of the Near
East, it is almost beautiful.
For men and women and children
are dying over there-dying for the
lack of sums that seem pitifully,
miserably small.
am not rich, and I have all the
little worries that are common to
us middle. class folks. Worries about
next years income tax; and about
the future of business, and where
my income will go to as such and
such things take place.
But l have worse worry than
that. The worry for what my con-
science will say to me, if in this
hour of the worlds tribulationI do
not do my share
The worry lest in my ears for the
rest OF my life there should be the
cry of man, or woman, or little
child whose life I might have saved.
For they are crying over there to-
\ day., stretching oNt their weak tired
arms. And it's marvellous thought
y to me, that modest as my income is,
it's big enough to let me save the
B life of one of them-big enough to
give me a man, or woman, or a
child who will never cease to be
thankful that l did my part.
&s They are waiting for our answer
over there: yours and mine. A poor
stricken man broken by the war; and
a woman, weak from her struggle
and terror; and a baby who can
grow up into useful manhood or wo.
manhood, if only you say the word
