The NO-License Campaign.

The little pamphlet entitled "Ches-
ter County No-Lcense Campaign
shows very plainly the increase oil
prosperity that accompanies the clos
ing of saloons. The result OF one
dry year in Coatesville Is decrease
of "a per cent in accidents at tne
big steel mills and decrease OF 10
per cent. i'm applications Tor ald.
There has also been a decrease OF 81
Der cent. in absence from work on
MONDAYS, or days following pay days.
In the savings departments of the
towns three financial institutions
the deposits have increased $23l ,OOO
over the same period last year.
I'm West Chester, where three OF Its
six licenses were eliminated, the cost
OF maintaining the DRINKS and dis
orderly prisoners has been $1O.95 as
against 1875 paid during the same
months last year.
In Kennett Square the books OF
the Burgess show so per cent. fewer
cases to appear before him for the
six months of no-license thanfor the
last six months Of the open bar. The
citizens (4S in number) are about
erecting a temperance hotel and a
property has been purchased at a
cost of SIT 800. When finished it will
be a four-story building with up-to-
date equipments.
The borough of Oxford holds two
fairs, one in the spring and one IN
the fall. In the days of license four
special policemen were brought from
Philadelphia to keep order; last fall
there were no special officers and no
disorder.
In Atglen when the constable went
to put a man in the lookup in July,
the first since the closing Of the
saloons in March, he found the weeds
in front of the door had grown as
high as the knob, and the spiders had
waven a web over the keyhole.

Placing Boys ON the Farm.

The most practical encouragement
of back to the farm" campaign that
has yet manifested itself is the propo-
sition to send boys to the country
during the summer months. The plan
il SO simple that it must appeal to
everyone who believes that the pros
perity of the Nation depends largely
upon the we'll being and the success
of the farmer. And best of all the
avowed purpose il to keep boys and
girls off the streets during the vaca-
ton period. Thousands Of city child
rem never have the opportunity of
leaving the crowded city during the
hot months. Many OF these long for
a glimpse of green fields, and that
longing is never satisfied. The Coun-
try Week Association and other
worthy organizations manage to give
a proportion OF these children week
or two in the country, but after all Is
a charity that only pretends to look
after a proportion of the smaller
ones.
The latest plan concerns those
over twelve years of age who are
physically able to earn their own liv-
ing on the farm The idea is to send
boys and girls to the country and to
make them self-sustaining from the
close of the schools until September.
The existing agencies are to be util-
lied in putting the scheme into oper-
alton. One 10 the Childrens Aid So
ciety in the city, and the other is the
farmers oranges in the country. The
public school system is to be used to
ascertain the number of boys and
girls who would like to work on the
farms during the summer. Those
who volunteer are to be given physi-
cal examination to prove whether
they are fitted for this sort of en-
ployment.
The plan seems reasonable, but Of
course its success depends not only
on the children themselves. but the
supervision that is given it by the
organizations that have been men
toned. Care must be taken that the
children are properly placed. The
idea would seem to present great
possibilities. If it should inculcate a
desire to engage in farming as an
occupation, there will be general
cause for congratulations
