PATIENCE the Greatest EIIxir.

Life has such hard conditions that
every dear and precious gift, every
rare virtue, every genial endowment,
love, hope, joy. wit, sprightliness, be-
nevolence, must sometimes be put int
the crucible to distil the one elixir
patience.-Gail Hamilton.

rather than the difference between party and

Justify the demand OF Mr.. Bodine. The case
should not be prejudged. In that event and
in the event Of the decision Of the city to
go to the relief Of the company, not because
II must, but because II desires to be fair, It
should be definitely arranged that not a
single dollar Of the extra money turned over
to the company should go to the shareholders
in dividends to increase the value Of their
shares and to make profits for spectators In
those shares.
The inquiry into the condition Of the
company ought to go beyond its financial
affairs. In seven years the contract with
the city expires and then the gas plant re-
vcrts to the city on the payment to the COM
pany of the money Il has invested in i'm
provements, provided the city wishes to
exercise its option. The inquiry should 20
into the issues involved In the retaking Of
the plant by the city. II is not too soon for
the Mayor and the Council to begin a con-
sideration Of this matter. Nor is II too
early for the gas company TO begin to make
plans for the future.

CENTRALIZlNG CHARITY

TNIIE GENERALIZATION Of the charitable and
l. social welfare activities of PhiladcIphia
has happily passed beyond the theoretical
stage. Representatives OF more than 100
social agencies are now organized in single
body, the prime object Of which will be
elimination of hundreds of different cam
paigns and drives after the method 50 sue
cessfully introduced by the War Chest.
The system as applied to charities has
worked well in several other cities Thee
Is every reason to believe that Philadelphinns
will continue to be AZ generous and philan-
thropic as heretofore while rejoicing in the
scheme Of simpifcation which at once rc.
moves the inappropriate spirit of competi-
tion from humane enterprises and cuts down
,waste and duplicating administrative ma
chinery.
The state of Pennsylvania has occasion
ally considered adopting a more compact and
equitable method in making its appropria-
lions for charities. Fortunately, by the time
the next Legislature ends its sessions the
central welfare federation in Philadelphia
will be fully under way aud its quota pro.
gram ready for presumably favorable in
spectiOn.
The charities and social undertakings iu
this city are to be congratulated for the
spirit of sympathy which they have brought
to the development of u welcome reform.

CUSTOM AND CONVENIENCE

FINHE ingrained local custom of crowding
the south side of Chestnut street has
sometimes been compared to inrxpicahlc
metropolitan habits elsewhere
Just why tEH elite of Burnos Aires insist
on walking in the roadbcd of the Gale
Florida and ouStng all wheeled traffic
thercfrom on fine afternoons remains n mvs.
terry. London and Paris have their prone.
nading perversities whose origins are
wrapped in obSCurity. II would be havorful
II the predictions Of Philadclphians on one
of their main business streets were equally
battling.
Truth, however, imprls the belief that our
local boulcvardiers have throngrd the lower
side of Chestnut street for the emnPntly
practical reason that the pavcments we're
wider there.
But a test Of the vitality of habit is now
about to be applied. Mayor Moore has or
dered condemnation proceedings compelling
the demolition of several buildng fronts pro.
jecting more than six feet into the sidewalk
on Chestnut street below Fifteenth Com.
paratively few infractions of the revised
Chestnut street building line are to be found
between Broad street and Sixth.
The remaining term Of privilege is prob
ably brief, With wide pavements on the
whole thoroughfare. the contest of fictitious
inhibitiOns and convenient realities will soon
be on. 1t will be interesting to watch the
behavior Of native sons and daughters

IMMIGRATION RESPONSIBILITIES

unfortunate immigrants, who are now
stranded on the docks ut Chcrbourg. The
trick was shameless contemplate.
1t Is questionable, however. whether the
moral Obliquity displayed was any deeper
than that contained in the present wholesale
methods Of corralling European populations
for shipment abroad.
The immigration authorities in New York
are painfully aware Of how ruthless and
commercially greedy some of these practices
are. Cases of passports incompletely viseed
and of infrnctions in Europe of clearly
specified health regulations are numerous.
In principle, America welcomes the
stranger. She is properly loath, however,
to receive victims Of systematic delusion.
