The working man can fill his house with beds bought with the wage he earns in half a week.

This, I suppose, is one of the "curses of capitalism." I have heard how "the rights of small peoples" have been destroyed by capitalism; and if the right to sleep five in a bed was prized by the little folks, this privilege has certainly been taken away from them.
At the Mooseheart School we are pinched for sleeping room for our fast-growing attendance.

I suggested that, for the time being, we might double deck the beds like the berths in a sleeping car.

"No," cried the superintendent.

"Not in this age do we permit the crowding of children in their sleeping quarters." So this is the slavery that capitalism has driven us to; we are forced to give our children more comforts than we had ourselves.
