Sometimes the world may be de-
tected in the act of moving. Such a
time occurred in Philadelphia when a
man and his wife left $4,000 for the
erection of a chlldren's play house and
the arrangement of a play ground in
Paramount Park, Philadelphia. Cribs
and couches are also to be provided in
case the little ones fall asleep or are
taken i'll. Hot weather will see the OPP
ening of house and grounds, and the
beginning of philanthropy whose ben
eficent results it would be beyond the
power of man to estimate. 1t has
taken IS centuries to approximate TO
it, yet surely the world has grown
kinder and tenderer and more pitiful
since our Lord first took a little
child in his arms and blessed it, setting
his seal upon every act of loving kind
ness that should ever henceforth be
done in the name of childhood.

Boston's horse show is a very credit

horse shows, but they long ago devel-

Of the chappies and the men about town

with gorgeous gowns? This is not said
in disparagement of the horse, but for
the glorifcation of woman. Mr.. Harry

on the track, and has given Worcester
prominence by the splendid perform

because l believe 50 thoroughly in TINS
that since coming here 1 hayesometlmes
made myself a laughing stock to those
who know less than they think they do,
for I have insisted that l was the as
sistant of every other pastor in the city
and that every other was mine. For
one church to compete with another or
to rise by the pains Of another, should
be spoken against and hunted down.
There should be unity and absolute
fairness between the pastors, teachers
and Sunday school teachers; to me this
is enormously important.
Next in Importance to organization
comes the being adequately equipped.
You can't do business in place like
Worcester on a small basis, and for this
reason an adequate plant is necessary
to the Y. NJ. c. A. No work of this sort
can be carried on except in a magnifi-
cent way. 1t should have force OF
men and a force of means at its COM
mand adequate to do its work, and not
be accused of extravaganza or waste,
either. There are no enterprises in the
city carried on with so small salary
list as the Y. NJ. C. A. But then, there
are no such interests in the world
handled on means so small as are the
churches People cry That big pay"
,
1t is small, small, when you consider
what his training has cost him. I don't
ask for a larger salary myself, but this
Y. NJ. c. A should have a larger year
ly income. Where will our ideals
broaden to the inter denominational
basis? AS it stands, work that is not
the pet of any denomination is damned
by all For my part, propose to stand
by the general interest of the city"

That tolerant and forgiving spirit so
eminently characteristic of the descen-
dants of the Puritans is in evidence
again. petition was introduced in
the legislature yesterday to revoke the
sentence of expulsion of Roger VIII
liams by the general court. He was
banished from the Bay State only 264
years ago, and can hardly have begun
to repent Of his heretical ten
denotes by this time. But never mind;
we are a kindly people after all, so
come back, Roger, and all will be for
given. 1t is a question which made
Roger Williams more famous, and of
which he had reason to be most proud,
his expulsion from Massachusetts or
his founding of Rhode Island.

DR.. Willard Scott has not been in
Worcester very long, but he has had
the penetration to discover one of the
causes that has done more than any
other to stultify philanthropic work in
this city, and he has the courage of
his convictions, too. There can be no
doubt that excessive individualism
works as a disintegrating and stultify-
ing force in religious as well as social
life, and that the cold shoulder is too
often turned to those causes and or
CARNATIONS that happen to be indepen-
dent of UNCONVENTIONAL influence. How
else can the Indifference be explained
that dogs the steps of the Associated
Charities, Welcome Mission and the
Young Mems Christian Association?

Reed c. futile is comparatively a
new conner into the ranks of American
artists, yet his work Is so individual
and brilliant that it cannot fail to in
terest and charm all who see it.
Twenty Eight Of Mr.. Tuttles water
cOlors were hung in the Davis art gal
leries on Elm street Monday TO remain
through the 29th and whoever likes to
be waited away from this reticent New
England Spring into a country If lush
grasses and flowing old Chateau gar
dens, Of smiling river reaches and CEN
tury-old castles, may spend happy
hours with these water cOlors.
But first a word as to Mr.. futile him
self. His home Is in Windsor, Conn.
He studied for an architect, but mas
tered by his aesthetic powers, he broke
away from his chosen profession to
paint pictures. His work was eXhi-
bited at Dole & Richards galleries in
Boston and in Carnegie hall, New York,
and was warmly received by the critics.
Then the young artist went to Paris,
whence he has just returned, after five
years of study, and the praise Of the
critics has been redoubled. Mr.. futile
is a connection Of the Cromptons Of this
city.
There are 2S pictures in the present
collection, all of them French. There
are eight from Blois, seven from Pa
ris. four from Barbizon, three from Am
boise, and one each from ChaumOnt
Chambord, Chenonceau, Langeais and
d Uzes.

plating placing memorial tablets on

ciety will probably cooperate with the
Daughters of the Revolution in mark
ing some of the spots famous during
the revolution though no definite plans
have been made yet.
