If you haven’t got a ha’penny – God bless you! Many of us know this song from our childhood. It’s a Christmas classic that should never be lost. It speaks to our me – when some of us have fat geese, some have geese that are skin and bones because their food had to go to feed the children, and others – well, their goose is cooked. It speaks of charity – a word that lost a lot of its oom-pah" when the King $ames Version of the Bible gave way to modern translaons which changed the translaon of 1 Corinthians 13. It no longer spoke of charity,” but of love." ) Now abideth Faith, Hope, and Charity [ Love ]; but the greatest of these is Charity [ Love ]") It’s sll the same word in the original Greek – agape )pronounced ah-gah-pay) – the same word that e,uals God in 1 $ohn 4.8 - God is love )agape )." 0ll, modern translators agree that charity" is a less-than-correct translaon of agape. 1hat comes of our scholarly correctness is a loss of the knowledge that Chrisan love" is not a feeling, but an acon. 2ove in acon takes many forms, and may be limited by one’s abilies and resources. 3ew of us could a4ord to feed the hungry of Greece ) much less Rochester) for a year, or probably even a day.

  • Charity and Reciprocity
    chapter 3 Charity and Reciprocity Can Reputation Explain Charity? This chapter contains a simple reputational model of charity. That model not only applies to charity as usually de‹ned but to voting par- ticipation, which we examine in the next chapter. Both are cases of socially approved behavior, and both involve costs to participants. A reputation for good deeds requires others to know about them. Rela- tively few people know about many donations, and fewer still about the voting participation of others. How, then, can charity or voting participation enhance reputation? Glazer and Konrad (1996) provide evidence of the reputational character of charity when charitable contributions are known. They ‹nd that the proportions of donors who make anonymous contribu- tions to charities is exceedingly small, between 0.2 and 1 percent. They also ‹nd that when charitable contributions are published by size cate- gory, contributions tend to be near the minimum amount necessary to get into a category. Consider the contributions to a fund established by the Cameron Clan at Carnegie Mellon University for 1988–89 and pub- lished as donations in the $1,000–$4,999 category. Of the eighty-two contributions, ‹fty-six (68 percent) gave exactly $1,000. Another seven- teen (21 percent) gave contributions somewhere between $1,000 and $1,100. In contrast only four gave between $900 and $1,000 and thus got published in the $500–$999 category. (The average size of the gift in the latter category was $525.) Similarly, the 1993–94 Harvard Law School Fund reported that of those in the $500–$999 category, 93 percent gave exactly $500.

  • 2020 Jan Feb CRC Carpenter
    CRC CARPENTER The Newsletter of the St. Louis-Kansas City Carpenters Regional Council JAN / FEB 2020 FROM THE EST Vol. 24, No. 1 Al Bond, Jr. Executive Secretary-Treasurer It’s a new year, in fact a new decade, and what a year it will be for all of us in the regional council. In November, we’ll join the rest of America voting in the next presidential election. On the national level, and even on the local level, these political elections are having extreme consequences for people like us. Our livelihood has come under attack by well- funded extremists and the elected officials who are willing to put big money donors and corporate lobbyists ahead of working families. We all remember what almost happened in Missouri in 2018. It was only because of our solidarity and some very hard work that we were able to flex our muscle and keep Missouri from becoming the next “Right to Work” state. As we often say, elections have consequences and this year is going to be an important one for us. Let’s be smart and support those who stand up for us. It will also be an exciting year for high profile, landmark construction. In Kansas City, our members will be getting years worth of steady work thanks to the KCI airport renovation. It’s the biggest construction project to come to KC in decades. And in St. Louis, NGA is providing another billion-dollar build, a ton of good jobs and a new beginning for a long neglected section of North City.

  • THE SIX and EIGHT Suzy Rigdon
    THE SIX AND EIGHT Suzy Rigdon Despite the still-bright sun, Kavanagh watched a seagull dive for some scrap left in the center grass of the racetrack and thought of how damn good the place looked at night under floodlights. It was peaceful outside facing the painted board where winners—both man and horse—were proclaimed after each race. He loved it out here when he was alone. When he could really think. Tonight, Kavanagh knew, was going to be good. It had to be. He had Charity Case lined up and that horse had never steered him wrong. Charity Case was a beaut. A black beauty: long legs, soft coat. He always shone under the lights; his muscles bunching, nostrils flaring. Kavanagh stubbed his Marlboro Red out on the bottom of his scuffed shoe, then left it still smoking in a divot in the cement by the double-wide glass door. He’d been sweating, and his light green polo had started showing dark pit stains and a necklace of moisture as he’d sat outside, thinking of his luck. The air conditioning prickled his skin into goose bumps as he walked back into the hall and wiped his forehead with a kerchief that he always kept stuffed in his pocket. For a Saturday afternoon, the hall was quiet and Kavanagh surveyed the floor. On one side, near the main entrance, were small, circular bar tables with a man or two stationed at each, the day’s program curled up under an arm or spread out on the table, stacks of tickets from each bet in their hands.

  • Lye Poisoning in “A Worn Path”
    Parting the Curtain on Lye Poisoning in “A Worn Path” Melissa Deakins Stang, Atlanta, GA Eudora Welty’s sensitivity to words and images in rural Mississippi during the late 1930s are often reflected in her writings and photographs (Barilleaux 21). “A Worn Path” is evident of this. Written, apparently, in 1940, and published in 1941, it is a short story about Phoenix Jackson, an elderly grandmother who undertakes a heroic journey into town to procure free “charity case” medicine for her grandson’s throat (177–78). The story is predicated on the unfortunate circumstance that the boy’s throat periodically becomes swollen because he accidentally swallowed lye. The doctor’s office that Phoenix returns to “like clockwork” confirms this: “Yes. Swallowed lye. When was it?-January-two-three years ago-” (178). How accurately does “A Worn Path” reflect conditions of the poor of Welty’s time and place, and from where does she draw inspiration for this tale? The child’s condition is something Welty obviously understood, as her story and its allusions to medicine clearly show. Traveling throughout her native state as a junior publicity agent for the Works Progress Administration in the 1930s, camera in hand, Welty observed the lives of rural people closely and took photographs depicting black life, including several that portray images of women like Phoenix Jackson. Unlike many writers and photographers of her time—for example, Margaret Bourke- White and Doris Ulmann—Welty was not on a Depression era crusade (Black 35), although she is clearly sympathetic to the people whose images she snaps.
