We must make our government and our science and art touch in a real way the life of the common people. We must recall 1912] Thompson: Tolstoij's ''What Shall We Do Thenf" 175 that it is they who, in large measure, support the govern- ment and pay the taxes. The government should represent them as well as the other members of the state. Tliis exaltation of the toiler has another good lesson for us. Too many of our college settlement workers go among the poor with the distinct idea that in some w...ay they are removed from the poor and that they belong to a different set of creatures. Tolstoy insists rightly that the difference between the poor laborer and the rich idler is merely that one does his duty and the other does not. And this is true. In kindness of heart and in honesty and character — the things that really do make the difference, the settlement worker does not differ greatly from the poor and honest people whom she tries to ' ' elevate. ' ' The seem- ing difference is ordinarily a matter of externals — educa- tion, dress, money, rearing.
