Dr. Christine Mann.

The Personal Touch. Not so long ago we pointed out that Charity is Love. It did not dawn upon us then to translate organized charity into organized love. The Fra was handed to us the other day with the invitation to read a contribution by Bolton Hall on "The Personal Touch." One feature that sticks out of every page of the Fra is its originality and its faculty of presenting a brand new angle of almost any real old subject.

Hall says: "That is the trouble with 'Organized Charity' it removes the personal touch; translate it into its original 'Organized Love and see what an absurdity you've got. DeputlzedJove a hired substitute to do the duty that we are drafted for. "We might as well hire iome one to kiss our wives for us." The writer points out that the real evil of organized charity is "that it affords an easy method of avoiding

personal attention to the sufferers, and or shirking personal responsibility for the evils which cause the suffering."

do, and does it with the spirit of a hireling and not with the spirit of a personal representative of every man or woman who contributes to the Central Charity Bureau.

Do you believe that Melpolder would be harsh and unsympathetic to a poor family if one man, standing high in the community, hired him, and gave him all the money that passes through the Central Charity Bureau. Far be it from so. Melpolder, knowing that he is personally responsible to this one man, would nbt dare to employ the tactics he has used in this city. The paid agent of public philanthropy in Richmond has forgotten that he is a personal representative of every one who contributes to the fund. Hence, his cold, impersonal, frigid, heartless attitude toward the poor.

We cannot accept fully Hall's indictment igainst organized charity. None of us have the time to visit the sick and needy even if our inclination were as strong as a mother's love. We believe that organized charity vicariously can do it for us. .

But this vicarious performance of our duty must be done with the same loving kindness with which we ourselves would do it. Or in other words, if John Melpolder, the paid agent of public philanthropy in Richmond, is to be our representative, he must be our substitute not only in title, but also in spirit. It is in this particular that we find criticism Df his work. Melpolder does not employ the personal touch that our vicarious substitute must use. He is a deputy who looks upon himself as a police officer carrying out police authority. He ought to be a deputy looking upon himself as a ministering angel alleviating human misery and woe. We see in Melpolder all the evils of an organized charity which does the work others ought to

A Central Charity Bureau must be maintained in Richmond because it can administer charity in an efficient manner. It can work wonders. It has done so in Dayton and in Cleveland. Why? If you read the reports of these bureaus, which were printed in the news columns, you know that the PERSONAL TOUCH is not lost sight of. Social workers in those cities look upon themselves as PERSONAL REPRESENTATIVES of the CITIZENS. Just as a church delegates to one man. the ! pastor, the duty of looking after its spiritual

needs, so a city entrusts to one man theduty of attending to the poor. If a pastor does not have kindness and love, his is discharged. , And that's what ought to be done with John Melpolder.

. An Angle We Often Overlook. If "reading maketh the full man," many of us are half-grown boys. Few of us have a comprehensive grasp of the elements that are vital factors in our businesses. Adelaide R. Hasse, chief of the document division of the New York Public Library, presents a commentary on our dereliction which we have overlooked, and we venture the assertion, most business men in the city have done likewise. Here's a bit of suggestive advice she gives: "What would you say about a business man who pays taxes for city water, good, clean, filtered water, piped to his house, to be used up stairs and down by merely turning a spigot, who then pays some one to dig a well ia his yard, pays to have the water filtered or runs the risk of using it unaltered, and who uses that water instead of the city water he Is paying for all the time? Yet a great many business men are almost as unintelligent about their public libraries as is this mythical person Who does not turn the spigot to get the city water. Why not make a survey yourself of what yo should be able to ask of your library, and then, if it is not up to your leved of efficiency, why not work to make it eo? It is your library. Why don't you make it a workable, efficient, up-to-date business laboratory for your city and your citizens? The magic co-operation of business men goes a long way in making any public institution efficient."

"Lunch with me at the Carlton today." He drew out a handful of money and counted it. . "We can run to it" . "All right. I'll be in the Palm Court at one-thirty. If I'm more than five minutes late, you'll know that a client has called unexpectedly." He kissed her affectionately, and, whistling "The Chocolate Soldier," ran down-stairs and out enroute for the West Central district.

Perhaps it was my womanly desire to minister to your wants in other words, to supply you with brains! My dear, good idiot, Bobbie Fane was always threeparts a prig!"
