In England, in yar time, such economics may be laudable. But in this country, at the present time, this kind of teaching cannot be too loudly condemned. Certain forms of economy are sensible; saving i s always a virtue; but the willingness to go without the common decent comforts of life produces a loss of self-respect. The lower the standard of living, the lower the “living wage”—and the larger the profits of the capitalists who support the settlement houses, where the poor are taught how to furnish homes with chairs and _ tables made from old packing cases!
