coNTENTMENT IN POVERTY


William Chase Greene, in The North
American Review.
There is a sort of poverty that is of
the devil; it means squalor, famine.
and disease. 1 hold no brief for such
poverty, or for it's forbearers, or for
it's offspring. There is, too, an ele-
giant sort of "straitened circum-
stances that means giving up one of
the automobiles and the better brand
of cigars; it deserves few tears. But
between these limiss exists the pro-
vince of true poverty in which more
than half of us always life-and
usually wish we did not, and see no
reason why in a free America We
should not emerge from it. This is
the province of skilled lahorers and
of most professional men; it includes
the men who run their own furnaces
and the women who edo their own
work" but not other peoples. From 1t
comes the bulk of the support of the
movies, the public schools, the Ford
car. professional baseball, and the
church. On the whole, the wealth
and the comfort of those whom 1 de-
scribe as truly poor" Is slowly in
creasing; but unless new sources Of
wealth are tapped for a population
that remains stagnant, there can be
no very sudden increase of wealth or
comfort for the poor as a class.
Yet most of the increase in happi-
ness of the nation, If each individual
Is to count for one and only one, must
come within this class. for the OBJ
vious reason that 1t includes most of
the population. l am not at all sure
that the bulk of the population Is
consplcuously moro happy today than
it was 100 years ago, or 800 years
ago. But l am confident that the
poor" have In their possession or
within their reach enough assets for
happiness to make Croesus look fool

ELKS PUT
 LIN DECREE WORK IN JEROME LODGE
Fraternal History Made When Over Hundred Prescott Mem bers Initiate 59 Into Copper City Lodge
O7rom Tuesdays Daily)


 The high wind and subsequent fall of snow in Prescott and vicinity was one of the results of the earth-rock- ing doings at Jerome Saturday night. Of this, a number of local Elks are fully convinced, having been i'll Je rome and having witnessed the pro cesses by which 59 residents of that and surrounding communities were inductcd into the B. P. o. Elks.
 The fact that Yavapai county did not tip toward Jerome with the weight of the serious transactions going on in the Copper City lodge, is attributed to the vast underlying strata of mineral-bearing rock from which so much wealth is extracted.
 Over one hundred Prescott Elks accompanied their officers to Je rome. A band was taken along. One of the largest buildings in the town had been rented for the night. Pres colt officers and the local degree team worked on the candidates and when the final initiation ceremonies had been put on, the entire assem- blaze, numbering 360, went and sat down to a turkey dinner, the like of which is not often encountered out side of the holiday seasons. The banquet was enlivened by number of short talks concerning fraternal matters and the spirit of good will between the two chief lodges of the county.
 The dinner having been discussed for, over an hour, the crowd repaired once more to the theater of the re- cent war and attended fine series of vaudeville acts, including a group sof Hawaiian singers, a cartoonist and other fun makers. Many of the Prescott fellows remained over un- til Sunday before returning while few boldly drove home, arriving all the way from 2:3O to dawn,
 The affair was one of the most pretentious ever held ill Jerome and will mark a high spot i'll fratcrnal exchanges between the two lodges. Jerome played the host with excel lent success and the local team put on the work with commcndable spirit.
