| + | * I have been in it since,Michael Kors Sale, and it is not so bad]<br>Once again it was jolly autumn weather,Michael Kors Sale, and the road was <br>quiet, with few cars passing. The air was like sweet-briar <br>after the spike’s mingled stenches of sweat, soap, and <br>drains. We two seemed the only tramps on the road,Michael Kors Outlet. Then I <br>heard a hurried step behind us,Michael Kors Outlet, and someone calling. It <br>was little Scotty, the Glasgow tramp, who had run after us <br>panting. He produced a rusty tin from his pocket. He wore <br>a friendly smile, like someone repaying an obligation.‘H<br>ere y’are, mate,’ he said cordially. ‘I owe you some <br>fag ends. You stood me a smoke yesterday. The Tramp Major <br>give me back my box of fag ends when we come out this <br>morning. One good turn deserves another — here y’are.<br>’<br>And he put four sodden, debauched, loathly cigarette ends <br>into my hand.<br>Chapter 36<br>I want to set down some general remarks about tramps. When <br>one comes to think of it, tramps are a queer product and <br>worth thinking over. It is queer that a tribe of men, tens <br>of thousands in number, should be marching up and down <br>England like so many Wandering Jews. But though the case <br>obviously wants considering,Michael Kors Outlet Online, one cannot even start to <br>consider it until one has got rid of certain prejudices. <br>These prejudices are rooted in the idea that every tramp, <br>IPSO FACTO, is a blackguard. In childhood we have been <br>taught that tramps are blackguards, and consequently there <br>exists in our minds a sort of ideal or typical tramp — a <br>repulsive,Michael Kors Outlet Store, rather dangerous creature, who would die rather <br>than work or wash, and wants nothing but to beg,Michael Kors Bags, drink, <br>and rob hen-houses,Michael Kors Outlet. This tramp-monster is no truer to life <br>than the sinister Chinaman of the magazine stories, but he <br>is very hard to get rid of. The very word ‘tramp’ <br>evokes his image,Michael Kors Wallet. And the belief in him obscures the real <br>questions of vagrancy.To take a fundamental question about <br>vagrancy: Why do tramps exist at all? It is a curious <br>thing, but very few people know what makes a tramp take to <br>the road. And, because of the belief in the tramp-monster, <br>the most fantastic reasons are suggested. It is said, for <br>instance, that tramps tramp to avoid work, to beg more <br>easily, to seek opportunities for crime, even — least <br>probable of reasons — because they like tramping. I have <br>even read in a book of criminology that the tramp is an <br> | ||
