When You Beg
N every community there are
I certain men and women who
have the reputation of being
good beggars: and a person who
is known to -be a ”good beggar"
is usually sought eagerly by
boards of managers and committee
chairmen in all sorts of charitable
and philanthropic organizations.
But to be a good beggar does not
mean simply to be willing to start
out courageously trying to pere
suade other folk to give for some
chosen cause. To be a. good beg-
gar you must be able to raise
funds without giving offense or
causing regret.
The other day a woman alighted
f r o m a three-thousand-dollar
limousine driven by a liveried
chauffeur and rather gingerly
picked her way across the side-
walk to a little village fancy .
store.
"\l'e n-z-cd new supplies for the
hospital." she said. "I'm sure
you are interested in the hospital.
One never knows when one will
be carried there and need kind
treatment. As I was saying. we
need new supplies. we need a
hundred yards of unbleached
muslin. I know you'd be willing
to sell it at cost and I thought
maybe you'd do even better than
that."
It happened that expenses that
month for the proprietor of the
little fancy store had been greater
than receipts. Most of the people
in the small town sent or went to'
the nearest city for their supplies.
The woman begging for the un-
bleached muslin has never bought
a cent's worth of anything in the
shop in her life—and she thought
she was a good-bare".
The little shopkeeper was about
to offer the material at less than
cost. when he noticed the car out-
side and the pompous chauffeur.
He quickly figured out that just
to come to his shop in such style
was a matter of more expense than
the price of the unbleached mus.
lin. and the little shopkeeper had
the courage to refuse.
It is a wise rule if you are man-
aging an organization. never to
send a rich woman to beg from a
poor person. .And it wise also to
remember in your begging that
you should‘ never take the atti.
tude that people are only doing
their duty in contributing.

settlement. She had spent the sum—

embodied her experiences in a novel
that had run into fifty thousand.

There was old Silas
orig-g. the deacon. an inimitable
character who had really been the
success of the book. There were
half the young men and young
women of the valley. And above all
there was Mrs. Pringle.
Elisabeth Pringle. the kindly. mid-
die-aged woman who was now wel-
coming her so hoepitably. so igno-
nm of the fact that she. with the
deacon. formed one of the central.
characters of the novel. Every-
thing that was Elizabeth Pringle
had gone into lmris' book. her queer
ways. her homely speech, her ‘slm-
piicity.
Yes. Mrs. Pringle had been a
find indeed. There were few Mrs.
Prlngles anywhere but in Pleasant
Valley,
and Ma he: more m

like a scene out of her own book
when Deacon Grin came in after
supper and eat with them in the
little low~ceilinged room. talking at
the crops and the docks. and detail-

And then the rent secret came
out. "Yes, Harm. Mre. Prtngle and

"T ’céng’r’e’tilate you very ain‘-

she simply must get this scene into

Deacon Grigg's next words left
Doris cold and quivering.
"We were reading that there book

he said. "Mrs. Pringle and me used
to set here a-reading it over the
stove night after night last. winter.

characeers you got into it-—old
Hank. the liveryman. and Mlle

Doris eat like a stone, overcome
with horror. She had never dreamed
that these people would diecom

Mrs. Pringle nodded and whis-

subject. A little later Dorie rose to
go to bed.
But she sat in her room a long
time. half—stunned still to think that
they had read her book. and had
taken it all so kindly.

The problems for solution this

those of yesterday. but because of
our changed mental attitude
towards them as they bob up un-
expectedly, we are not in the right
mood to take hold. or to make
proper disposition of them until
we have adjusted ourselves and
smoothed out the wrinkles in our
ruffled dispositions.
W'e ate a. late dinner last night.
gorged ourselves to repletion and
we are in an ill humor. In con-
nection with our irritability we
are tormented with indigestion
and indecision.

have a hard day before us. which

We are each day tried by laconc

seem quite competent to read the
compass or handle the wheel.
Our inability to keep going on
the right course. to find the proper
solution of complex problems. re-
sults from a weakness in our men-

blame but ourselves.
We boast of our strength and
make hold to tell others how to
get a grip on themselves and con-
trol their tempers. when in reality
we are the weaker veaels.
Through such a sea of con-
