REMARKABLE EFFECTS

THE EARTHQUAKE

We would be the last people on earth to oppose charity but we must declare

that the sort to promiscuous aluis-giving as practised in Canton is a fallacious act. It aeither benefits the giver or the receiver. There are, so many objection- able features in this whole question of beggars in Canton that we feel some drastic remedies ought no longer be left unprovided for. We enumerate a few of OF these objectionable features helaw:

1. Little belpless innocent babies ersel- ly exposed to inclement weather and trying circumstances

Young children made to beg when they ought to be at play, at school or at work that is suitable for them.

41

2. Old men and women dragging about the streets who ought to be in the asylum for the aged.
