Supervision of Maine Schools

Following the example of Massachu-
sets and the other New England
states, Maine enacted in 1897 a law
providing for the union of towns for
the employment of superintendent of
schools. Massachusetts, originated this
plan in 1870. adding the state aid feat
ure in 1888 and still later made the
adoption of its provisions obligatory
to all towns. All the other New Eng
land states with New York and sew
eral states of the middle west have
since adopted the original plan of
union supervision with such modifca-
tons as local conditions have sug-
gested. At first Maine towns were slow
to adopt the provisions of the Act of
1897. A few pioneering towns having
adopted the scheme, other towns pro-
flied by their example and voted fay-
orably on the proposals to form unions.
During the past ten years, by figures
taken from the Maine school report, it
is shown that the process of bringing
the State under skilled supervision
has been reasonably rapid and that
the unions have been encouragingly
permanent.
For the year ending July first, 1914,
there were 81 unions with 221 towns,
These figures report an increase Of
two unions and seven towns over the
preceding year. There were in these
81 unions 1853 schools. an increase Of
50 over the year 1928. The towns
paid s47,6S2 for this supervision while
the amount of State aid for this pur-
pose was $63,643.
Practically so per cent of the school
population is now under city or union
supervision. 1t is reported that there
are numerous instances Of towns that
desire to secure the privileges Of the
law but are unable to do so because
the neighboring towns have already
perfected unions that reach the maxi
mum provisions Of the act 1t is sug-
gested that in justice to these towns
and to the interests of the small
of children not served by the
present unions, measures to redistrict
the State for permanent supervision
should be undertaken soon.

Parkman. which will be we'll received
throughout the State, is in line of pro-
motion carrying an increased salary
from the position of assistant clerk of
the Railroad Commission to chief of
rates and schedules of the Public
Utilities commission.
The many years experience of Mr..
Parkman In railroad circles eminently

the schools of his native town and

ia. After leaving college he learned

and operator under Station Agent

after which he was appointed station
agent at Augusta, a position which he
held for some time He was appointed
by the late Hon. Payson Tucker, at
the age of "a years, and was at that
time the youngest station agent of any
station Of importance on the line Of
the Maine Central Since December.
1909. he has served as assistant clerk
OF the Railroad Commission. Mr.. Park

tax collector of Penobscot by prac-
tically unanimous vote but did not

ed States enumerator In 1910 under

State House Chat.

One who has not visited on the top
floor Of the State House during the
past month would be greatly surprised
upon visiting that part of the Capitol
building now to see the Office changes
which have been made. He would find
the office of the State Board of Chari-
ties and Corrections, which had hither-
to been on the third floor. on this floor
and also the offices Of the Public Util-
tiles Commission, which comprise six
rooms taking in the room formerly
used by the reporters, the old rail-
road offices, the finance room and the
room formerly occupied by the Water
Storage Commission. Three of the
rooms occupied by the Public Utilities
Commission are private offices for the
members of the commission, Messrs.
Cleaves, Mullen and Shelton. The for
mer railroad office is now the business
office Of the new commission, the
finance room Is used as the court room,
and in the room formerly occupied by
the Water Storage Commission the
work hitherto done by that commission
is now carried on by the new commits
sion. Last week the Charities and Cor
rections Board moved its Office from the
third floor to the room on the top floor,
occupied during former sessions Of the
Legislature by the barber and used
since the last session Of the legislature
as the blue print room. The room va

pied by the House reporter. The re-
porters for the various newspapers will
carry on their work this winter in the
room Of the Pharmacy commission on
the fourth floor.
The Augusta Red Cross Society is
now using the acknowledgement owned
by the State Board Of Health for ex-
hibition purposes to aid in the selling
of Red Cross stamps

such entertainment as can be provided
in the winter for holidays and Sun
days. with reading, and study by some
of the younger men, and anticipated
release by parole, softens somewhat
the grip of prison life.
To this slender list of prison benefits
should be added assistance to the man
on his re-entry to civil life. 1t is moral
ly due to him, and for the States inter-
est, that favorable opportunity be
created for him to reconstruct his life,
If so disposed. This assistance, made
possible by his labor. in conjunction
with the humane treatment accorded
him while in prison, would discharge
all obligations which the State might
owe him under the present system of
affairs
In the administration of the indus
trial departments the results show in
telligent supervision and energetic and
judicious methods of operation. Each
department is a well ordered and sue
cessful business corporation. An ag-
gregate of nearly 100000 is handled in
doing the business Of these depart
ments. 1t is very evident that only a
few available men possess the requisite
qualities. the experience and business
capacity for the varied duties of the
of such institutions
1t is clearly to be seen that an insti-
tuition which carries with it so much
responsibility, and the administration
of which is so important to the State,
should not be subject to the uneven
tenure of political favor. We believe it
reasonable to suppose that the day is
not far distant when our prison will be
conducted by the State after the man.

VIIASHlNGToN. Dec. 1o.-It
wv was blunder which land
W ed the American forces in
Vera Crux--a blunder by an sd.
mirRi.
Traditionaily the admiral was
right. but the tradition survived
from a time before there were tele-
graphs or cables or wireless. when
admirals were entrusted In distant
waters with the functions OF inter.
national diplomacy.
Admirals in the old days were
accustomed TO uphold the dignity
OF the nation by compelling respect
for the nag and by insisting upon
certain formal observances like the
firing Of guns in salute OF the flag
and the presentation OF apologies
when these observances were neg.
lected.
Thus II happened that what an
admiral regarded as an insult 10
the American nag made IL neces.
sary for the president to send the
fleet and 5000 men TO Vera Cruz
and To keep them there at large
expense for many months.
II was pointed out TO President
Wilson that the morale of the
whole navy would be destroyed
