WATER SUPPLY. The new Water Commissioners are spending several days in Ulster . the water supply to be required when New York has 10,000,000 in- ¥ habitants. In the méantime, while this investigation Is going on, there are two) important things which could and should be done now and the doing of! -which will provide an ample water supply until Greater New York's! Population reaches the 10,000,000 mark. These are the stoppage of leakage.and wastage and the full utilization of the supply from the/ watersheds which New York already owns. 4 ‘The supply and distributing pipes in both New York and Brooklyn! are in bad condition, The great building operations of recent years, ‘especially the subways, have caused a settling of the ground and the) loosening of many pipe joints. The constant disturbances of the streets by the Consolidated Gas Company and the surface railroads in laying | their conduits have caused hundreds of leaks.

Is it better to spend money in seeking the North Pole and in build- tng libraries and in endowing a general education board or to help the mother of a crippled child in her efforts to secure for him the best sur- isical treatment and care? The letter of Mrs. James Yeamans in The Evening World suggests * the broad question of what should be the main object of philanthropy’ 3 and charity. It tends to a reasking of the old question as to what is the a chief end of man and the performance of what duty he should put first when he is unable to perform them all. Is knowledge or happiness most to be sought? And does the seek- Ing of the one imply a near approach to the other, or are both only com- « Parative and the sum of human content more easily increased by the giving of a little to those to whom that little is much, rather than by “ig? to the possessions of them whose possessions are alreadv great ? Af contentment is most to be sought, and if happiness cannot exist without content, then increased knowledge is efit, because without knowledge discontent is limited in its scope. ¢ The most abstruse philosophers can raise no more difficult question is than that presented by a poor mother of a crippled child. «Letters from the People.
