Ye: heiw we are, home again, completing the last lap of an 18,000 mile journey. 'It was wnlle .., Germany, especially along the hlstori- ttl Rhine, and, while In the mountains j of Switzerland, that the social pruj ltm or. England struck me so U...i. Juot out of that poverty stricken, roy. aKy ridden district of England where vast estates owniad by men who In herit them and didn't earn them, lay Idle except io furnish amusement for the rich, and where the poor man is not aiding in the productiveness of the soil' for someone's good, I could com mence to appreciate the wonderful ef fort on the continent to utilize every inch of land. They do utilize the soil there and the result was that on my entire trip on the continent I was not accosted by a single beggar. In tine Alps we 'saw soil, producing 'food stuffs, that resembled in every way the rocky road between here and Per ry. Wherever there is a foot of land without a rock, you will find some thing of usefulness growing. The na lives are well clad, happy, Intelligent and comfortable. The panacea for the labor problem thene is to give employ ment and not take away. ' There is a man for everything and the railroads are manned .with capacity crews While the natives devote their time to utilizing the soil the non-farming ele ment is working at something else. It is true all over the continent. Yfhj Alps Are Pretty. "The chief reason why the Alps are so beautilul Is that wherever ' there isn't snow, that is, farther down the steep slopes, there are frequent spots where there are no trees. It is the oak that grows most prolific in Swltz erland, the big monarch of the forest Where one of these open places are found, be it ever so small, yon will find a family tilling the soil, packing necessities up the steep hills to the place of abode.
