VICAR ADVOCATES THE LASH. “Rough and ready methods”—including the lash if necessary—of teaching loafers the meaning of work, were suggested by the Rev. Basil Bourchier, vicar at St. Jude-on-the-Hill, Hampstead, in a sermon on “The Curse of Poverty.” “Poverty,” said Mr Bourchier, '/was positively dangerous. It created the revolutionary temper, and was a menace to the existence of society. All State relief should be educational. Work—the desire for it, the ability to obtain it, and adequate remuneration for it, were the crying needs of the hour.”
