Jules Feiffer (illustrator). "Keepers of the Poor" is a book by Rev. Dr. J. Edward Carothers, who was the associate general secretary of the Methodist Board of Missions. While this book stems from his service within the Methodist Church, its aim and meaning goes far beyond a single church's domain. In this book he was asking for interdenominational efforts to combat poverty, which he perceived was the duty of all Christians. The book has a powerful message, and despite hailing from 1966, it seems to me that the world today could use men like Reverend Carothers and his message, which is surely a message coming from a higher authority. The world is still struggling with the problems presented in this book -- maybe more than ever before. The book starts out with one of Jules Feiffer's cartoons - a cartoon consisting of six frames, three of which we show. Feiffer was a socially conscious cartoonist and his work often had deep meaning. This particular cartoon is one of his more powerful efforts . it transcends the comic humor of its presentation. The chapters in the book are many, and so we have chosen to present two scans of the Table of Contents. TITLE : Keepers of the Poor AUTHOR : J.
