SOCIAL WELFARE LEAGUE,
Greensboro, N. C.
SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 27, 1915.
: j :
Purpose Of The Social Welfare
League As To Shows.
We are not trying to put the op
era house and the "movies" out of
business. The Social Welfare Lea
gue is not a conscience regulator. Its
standards are not puritanical, nor is
its policy shaped by those who have
any desire to interfer wth other
people's business. '
"It all comes back to a question of
life spell it with capitals LIFE.
There is individual life, which is re
latively simple; there is family life,
a .bit more complicated; and there
is community life, with its social,
educational, commercial, moral, and
a few other phases-r but -only one
community life, after all and that is
necessarily complex.
"I-think I am stating a truth that
is as self-evident as it is trite that
that is the best community life
which affords the largest opportun
ity for. individual development. The
obligation . to the community ' must
be kept in view. " 'I have the right to
stretch out my arms; but my right
stops where my neighbor's nose' be
gins.' Individual liberty must stop
when its exercise inflicts injury upon
the community, or any member of it
"People have not always been
careful to consider the welfare of the
community, in seeking their private
advantage. The saloon keeper is the
most conspicuous example of ' those
who seek their own gain, no matter
how, great the cost to others. And
from this it shades off into many
forms and degrees in which human
selfishness operates.
"You will always find that which
preys upon life. The scale on the
fruit tree, the disease which attacks
pigs and cows and human beings,
and thej multifarious devices that
attack the moral nature, must be
combatted, lest they destroy life.
But to combat these is not enough;
there must be positive forces at
work to nurture life;-so we have our
churches our schools,- our library,
and other institutions and facilities
intended to build upon the life of
the individual, and of the commun
ity. ,-
"The program of .the Social Wel
fare league may be defined briefly,
as follows: To combat all the forces
that tend to destroy life, physical,
social, intellectual and moral; to en
courage all that tend to build up
life, physical, social, intellectual and
moral. And we think it is good
sense to begin with the child.
"Here is the platform:
" 'A whole-time superintendent of
health for' the city of Greensboro,
the observance of tuberculosis Sun
day, community Christmas, helping
the unemployed, physical inspection
of school children, a model tubercu
losis law, play grounds with super
vision, a juvenile reform school for
Guilford county, a probation law, the
indeterminate jentence, and parole.'

constructive policy that will contri

said: v- '
"'Fifty years from now, people
will laugh at us of this generation
for spending thousands of dollars on
schools character building institu
tions, and yet spending little or noth
ing to prevent the very little things,
in public amusement, that under
mine the character of children.' -
"Greensboro s shows are compar
atively clean now. Why not elimin
ate the occasional objectionable fea
tures, and join hands to make them
what they may be a source of in
nocent entertainment to all, especial
ly to the children, and a strong fac

FIFTH DISTRICT."
The Winston Journal Already Boom
ing Candidates.
The Winston Journal, which tried
so manfully to defeat Major Sted
man before, the nomination, is al
ready at its bid tricks. It is getting
to work early r-doing what it can to
get up sentiment againBt the gallant
Stedman the last .-Confederate sol
dier we can .honor hereabouts. It
wants Chatham to run, and we note
the Mount Airy News is also with it,
as witness the following: V
"Already there is talk about who
may be the next candidate for Con
gress from this district. The Winston-Salem
Journal this . week says
Mr. H. G. Chatham is the man to
make the race. It is a well known
fact that for many, years there has
been a strong following who wanted
to send Mr. Chatham to Congress.
The only reason he has not been
elected to this high position long ago
is that he would never allow his
name to' ue used by those who saw
in him a man well suited for the
place.
"Now that Forsyth citizens have
induced him to take a venture in the
political world we predict that he
will not be able to. stem the strong
tide that will set in for him to be our
next representative'. He has property
and business and social standing. The
pressure that is most sure to be
brought to bear on him for this posi
tion we predict will be so strong that
he cannot refuse.
"If ttiere was any good reason why
he should not accept the case would
be different. But so far as the casual
observer can see there is no good
reason why he should deny the strong
following he has. To be a member
of Congress, from this district is an
honor that no man can think lightly
of, and to he able to fill this position
with credit to one's self and to the
satisfaction of the citizenship. is not
the lot of every man, but Mr. Chat
ham can do both, fte has reached the
highest position in the social and
business world, and there is every
reason for thinking' that the oppor
tunity to serve his district as repre
sentative in Congress will open to
him a large field for usefulness and
honor.
"If Mr. Chatham will allow his
name to be used there is every reason
for thinking that he will be our next
congressman."
Yes, "already there is talk" and
the talk is that Major Stedman is
making good; that Major Stedman
has friends all over the aist'rict and
that they will see to it that he re
mains in Congress as long as he is
in the splendid trim physically and
mentally that he is today. Major
Stedman might go2own on the tariff
issue in this district but he will
never go down before a democratic
convention in the year 1916. The
people of the Fifth district will hon
or Major Stedman with a -renomina
tion. The Jpurnal and the News .and

Will Hardly Get Through.
Congressmen tire doing all they
can to get through business by next
month but so much remains, and
the ship bill is still a mystery. Maybe
the President will put it over. If
he doesn't an extra session is liable
to be on again. It is a sure thing
that the Congressmen have earned
their salary under Wilson. He is
more strenuous than the "strenuous
one. : -

of the Kuester-Lowe wholesale groc

progressive in the commercial world
he has no peer. He is the man who

Cut Into Three.
The Cameron Highway Bill, want
ing thirty thousand dollars to aid in
builoing good roads finally got
through the house, but it was a bit
ter fight, and the amount was cut
from $30,000 to $10,000.
II was a hard fought bill. The
legislators are not doing much ap
propriating, and this being some
thing that meant future appropria
tlons and the establishing of a per
manent commission, the law mak
ers were a little slow, about acting.

Senator McNider introduced a bill
doing away with exchange between
railroads and. newspapers as to mile
age.' Such ' a , bill should become

shot against railroads wculd get, no
mileage, but railroads could contract
and- pay cash and this would give the
venal editor a chance to get much
gold. . As it is now he secures passes
and all editors secure them there
being, no ' difference. But let it be
made a law that no more . mileage
was to he given and you would see
the venal editor getting much coin.
The editor friendly,' like we are to
railroads would be a favorite and he
would get more cash . advertising
than ever he got in mileage. r
If the people want to be served
fairly better leave the present law
alone. Because the custom of pay-
ng cash has not yet obtained, but if
it comes the railroads will have ex
cuse and reason to "fix" any editor
who wants to be fixed.

Could Laugh In Sight Of
Seven
Sticks For A $?
Colonel Alex Fields has need to
think again. We wrote a tragedy
and he copied it and thought it fun
ny. Listen to him in his State Journ
al: 7 -
"Last week we copied from Col.
Fairbrother's Everything his account
of the finding of a stick of fire wood
eighteen inches long on the streets
of Greensboro, supposed to have
been lost from a load containing six
simila'r sticks. In some way the ar
ticle was not properly credited. We
hasten to make amends, for fear our
readers may think we were trying to
be humorous."
Why, man, a stick of wood is
worth its weight in gold in this town
in fact more . than that. Seven
sticks for a dollar figure it out.

WANT PREPAREDNESS.
The Thoughtful Men Insist That We
.. .. Prepare. ,.7
President Lowell, of Harvard, gave
out and interview the other day and
among other things said:
"Summer military camps for stu
dents have assumed far greater im
portance than ever before. The Erro
pean war has shown that the chance
of an-unexpected conflict is a more
real danger than we had supposed.
There is urgent necessity for a much
larger number of officers or men
with at least the rudiments of an
officer's training than our regular
army and the militia can possibly
supply."
It seems that -because other Na
tions prepare we must. That seems
sensible, but. when all know that
"preparedness" is what gets us into
war why can't the Hague and all the
wise men of all the nations agree
that no one of us shall prepare? In
just a minute by our Ingersoll watch
that would top all war. And the
right men representing the Nations
can bring about such an understand
ing just as soon as this war is ended.
Unless we get into it before it ends.
Selling Bonds.
All the towns round about are
selling their bonds and it looks like
Greensboro will have no trouble to
sell her $100,000 issue. When that
is done and the street work starts we
will see things a little livelier
than just now.
