UNEMPLOYED AND
EMPLOYED.
That many men are out of work is no
new fact in our industrial life. The
unemployed are among the poor that
the bible sayB we shall always have
with us. But the conditions growing
out of the Kuropean war have greatly
aggravated thfs fact. All over the
land, even in the South, where men
have generally been able to find work
of some kind, hundreds and thousands
of good men are without employment;
and Rince labor is an essential part of
the capital of the community as well as
the nation, every unemployed man is a
dead asset of the industrial body.
To lind the cause or causes of a thing
1b not always to find its remedy; but
we shall not find a preventive for any
particular evil unt l we have found the
cause.
One of the causes of unemployment
is the very nature of the work done
and required these days. Specialism is
universal. It used to be that a com
petent blacksmith could make a good
buggy from wheels up. and a goop
shoemaker could turn out a good pair
of shoes from heel to toe. Now every
sort of thing, from buggy to shoes, is
made by factories and machinery, and
factories and machinery can be run
only by specially trained men and wo
men. No one can be a specialist who
does not give practically all his time
and attention to his specialty. Hence
we have many men who can do only one
thing, and when employment fails in
their special line, they are left without
work. That man is fortunate who can
do one thing well. More fortunate
still is the man who can do several
things fairly well. It is dangerous to
put too many eggs in one basket.
A more unfortunate class of the un
employed is made up of those who have
never learned to do anything. No pa
rent has done his full duty to his chil
dren until he has taught them sons
and daughters to do something that
a worth while. A father who neglects
this bequeaths misfortune to his children.
One division of this class we are
studying is composed of those who nre
fastidious about the kind of work they
do, and the pay they exact. Since they
can’t get the work they want, they do
nothing hut sponge on their neighbors.
Such folks deserve no more sympathy
than they get, and they get but little.
No man can be thoroughly honest when
he remains in idle dependence on others,
when there is any sort work to do that
is open to him.
We have spoken above of the un
employed. We may do well to consider
the obligation resting upon those who
are at work these trying times.
Of course, the unemployed should re
ceive sympathetic treatment at the
hands of the employed. Most men
have been out of a job at some time in
their lives. The exceptions to this are
those who have had means to carry on
some *ort of work independently of the
help of others. A self-respecting, in
dustrious man out of work is mortified
enough already. lion’t make him feel
worse by letting him think that you
CBteein him less because of his misfor
tune. Help him to find work, or, fail
ing in that, help him in some way that
will not make him feel that he i9 a
Oeggar. It is bad to be without work;
it is worse still to lose any part of one’B
self-respect.
It is one of the common complaints—
and one which, unfortunately, most peo
ple accept as true—that capital is sel
fish; that it has no interest in the work
ing man, except to get his services for
as little money as possible. This opin
ion may be partly true, but, like most
popular beliefs, it has an element of ex
aggeration in it. Still, it is manifestly
the duty of those who have means to
go to the utmost limit of their ability
in finding work for those who wish it
and need it. Corporations may be able
to declare larger dividends by reducing
their working force in times like these,
and in doing so increase the number of
' tramps and criminals. The unemployed
man without means is not merely a
i useless member of society; he may be
come a menace to it. From such are
recruited anarchists and bomb-throwere
and Hay Market rioters.
The world at large, and this country
in particular, can learn some things
from Germany besides how to fight the
most disastrous war in all history.
Germany has learned to find work for
all its men who can work, and to pro-
, vide old-age pensions for the aged, and
' to make provision for those who are
i afllicted. The strength of Germany is
j not in its Krupp guns and ample ammu
nition, but in the.belief of the people
that the Kaiser cares for their interests,
and that the Government is being run
for their benefit. The weakness of our
country to-day is'the belief of the peo
ple that the'Nation and the State take
no interest in the special welfare of the
citizens, and that the rich care only for
themselves.
OUR FOREIGN RELATIONS.
If this country keeps out of war
with Mexico that greatly disturbed
country will deserve no credit for the
escape. Only such forbearance as
America seems alone capable of exer
cising under undesirable and most try
ing conditions has kept our armies
this side the Rio Grande thus far.
Of course, nobody knows fully the
meaning of recent depredations on the
border by Mexican bandits, but the
thing looks as if the wily Carranza is
at the bottom of it. He seems to be
playing a desperate game. He seems
to think that if he cun provoke the
United States to acts of a warlike
nature against Mexico the effect would
be to rally around his standard the va
rious warring factions among the Mexi
cans and thus lengthen his tenure as
the de fartn head of the government—
a tenure that is by no means strong.
Possibly we ought to have adopted a
firmer policy towards Mexico at the
outset. Some think we should have
done so. But the question was not one
of dealing with Mexico, but with all
the Latin nations south of us. But
new these nations have joined hands
with us, and we can afford to adopt
more vigorous measures, and Carranza
seems determined to force us to do so
If there is a country anywhere in
all the world that needs outside inter
ference in its domestic affairs, that
country is the so-called republic of
Hayti. Since 1H70, or thereabout,
that negro country has had seventeen
so-called presidents, only one of whom
has served out his term of office, and
five of whom have been killed. Occupy
ing one of the richest islands in all the
world, they have made of that fair
land a wilderness and a land of blood.
Better far for the island if the
Europeans had never come to it. The
race of savages that have murdered
each other since the days they won
their- independence from France by
slaughtering and driving into exile
their white masters, have lost all claim
to consideration as civilized folk, and
the United States should as an act of
humanity, and not as a matter of con
quest, go in and take full possession of
the country. The negro brutes down
there have had a hundred years in
which to show the world that, as
Southern people have always contended,
the negro is incapable of self-govern
ment.
The treaty recently negotiated with
Hayti is a good beginning. If it shall
bring peace and good order to Hayti,
well and good. If not, let us as a
nation do what we will not allow any
body else to do.
The Department of Agriculture pre
dicted Monday that the next cotton
crop would be approximately 11,800,000
bales of 500 pounds gross weight. This
prediction was made after the condi
tion of cotton on Aug. 25 was estimated
by the Bureau of Crop Estimates to be
09.2, based on 131,150,000 acres. The
1914 cotton crop was over 17,000,000
bales, or 5,000,000 bales above the offi
cial estimate of the present crop.
Judge Knowles was shot and killed
near his home up in Rhode Island the
other day by an assassin whose grudge
against him is supposed to have grown
out of the rigid enforcement of the laws
against hunting and fishing. Georgians
look at the matter differently. Men
are in danger down here who don’t en
force the law.

Rev. Claude Grimes Called to Pas
torate For Another Year.
Bouton (Ga.) Bostonian.
At their annual meeting Sunday
morning the Baptist congregation voted
unanimously to call Rev. J. C. Grimes
to the pastorate for another year.
Rev. Mr. Grimes will have served the
church as pastor a year on Oct. 1, and in
view of their custom of calling a pastor
by the year, last Sunday was the date
on which to take action on this matter,
so that in the event of a change being
desired, the customary thirty days’ no
tice might be given the incumbent.
It is a deserved indorsement of Rev.
Mr. Grimes’ efforts to lead the church
aright during his one year in the pas
torate. It was distinctly a compliment
to him that not only the entire church
membership were present, but a great
many who are not actively identified with
this church and who were at the Sunday
morning services, voted solidly as well
as feelingly for his retention.
That Rev. Grimes has served his peo
ple faithfully and well since assuming
their leadership has been the prevailing
opinion with other denominations of the
city as well as with the Baptists. He
has done a great and good work for the
local church in furthering the cause of
Christianity, and has done much good
service for the community at large.
Young, aggressive, broadminded, a
fine character, a splendid type of citi
zen, and well-informed scripturally,
Rev. Mr. Grimes has found it not at all
difficult to serve his people acceptably.
His retention by the Baptists of Bos
ton is pleasing to the local public, ir
respective of denominational lines, as
evidenced by the expressions from not
only the pastors, but from prominent
laymen of the other churches of the
city.
A man will sometime pucket his i
pride, but a woman can never rind her |
pocket.

NOT ENOUGH CHILDREN
ever rccrive the proper balance of food
to sufficiently nourish both body and
brain during the growing period when
nature’s demands are greater than in
mature life. This is shown in so many
pale faces, loan bodies, frequent colds,
and lack of ambition.
For all such children we say with
unmistakable earnestness: They need
Scott's Emulsion, and need it now. It
possesses in concentrated form the very
food elements to enrich their blood. It
changes weakness to strength; it makes
them sturdy and strong. No alcohol.
