The Social Center - iE

That the social center idea has come TO stay is
indicated in a report just compiled by Clarence Ar
thur Perry, of the Russell Sage Foundation, New York
City. Mr.. Perry shows that in places where the
movement has already started tho rate of growth is
much higher than the rate at which it spreads in
new localities. In other words, the actual results OF
the social center are more effective in getting public
support than the words Of its most enthusiastic
champions. -%
The work Is getting on a more solid basis. Sew
%entyone cities had, during the winter of 1928,
paid workers for some form of social center activity,
as opposed to "A the previous season, and the amount
expended III the maintenance of school centers has
grown from $780, 35 in 1912 to $324,575 in the past
year. There are 1927 paid workers reported. This,
with the volunteer workers, brings the numbe of
persons engaged in social center direction consider
ably above the 5000 mark.
That the general social and recreational POSSIBLE.
tiles of the "widcr-use Of the-schoolplant' movement
are making a constantly greater appeal may be seen
from the fact that in 9Sl school houses there were
public entertainments and lectures; in 49G school
buildings there were open meetings of adults 10 dds
cuss local problems; athletics or folk dancing in l74
schools; and social dancing in 1870.
A notable development of wider use in 1928
was for election and other civic purposes. Balloting
during elections took place in 500 school houses; 259
buildings were used for registering voters; and polit-
ical rallies to the number of 1S1 took place in school
ediiices.
Mr.. Perry reports great difficulty in obtaining OK
act statistics of social center activities. Little uni.
formity of agreement exists as to what constitutes
a social center. Even the name itself is not constant
the institution is variously reported as recreation
CENTER" civic CENTER" Social and recreation cen
ter" Governing CENTER community center" etc.
Some cities have social center activities going on six
nights a week; while others open their school build
ings once or twice a month.
. We should, however, look beyond the mere figures
in Judging social centers. says Mr.. Perry. "Centcrs
Of individual growth and refinement. of civicism and
and social integration-that is what these places are,
and no system of numerals can ever be devised that
will convey an adequate notion of the vitalizing III.

On the stock exchange confidence
is steadily reviving as q result OF the
new currency bill and tue more rea
sonable attitude of Washington to-.
ward big business; also because. Of a
graowing hope that the. railroads will
in due season receive SOME considera.
ton from the Interstate Commerce
commission. Political agitation is be-
coming less popular. Quite a fair ad-
vance has taken place in the leading
securities and profit taking caused
temporary reactions. The outlook,
however, is still favorable to a we'll
sustained market subject to moderate
reactions through profit realizing. The
local financial situation is sound and
is likely to strengthen in the first few
months of the e year. From a world
wide viewpoint the United States is in
better financial and commercial con-
dition thany any other country in the
world. This is worth bearing in mind,
for the United States has often in the
past led the world in business recOv-
cry. We have been through a period
of liquidation and contraction. Great
Britain is just beginning this process,
while Germany has not yet emerged
from a; reaction which began over a
year ago. The financial situation in
Europe is still one of strain owing to
effects of the Balkan war and the ex-
haustion OF capital by the continued
pressure of new issues in England,
France and Germany. For these rea-
sons it is hardly to be expected that
Europe can lead any upward move
ment in American stocks, especially
as the floating supply of our stocks
abroad is much reduced. Canada is
still suffering from overborrowing and
Canadians have large sums out on call
in this market which would be with
drawn in case of emergency. OF late
there has been some Improvement in
the local investment dmand; also a
better inquiry for bonds fro minstitu-
tons, as Is usual at this; season.
There is still a considerable short in.
terest in the market. Occasional re-
actions must be expected, but condi-
tons. ASA whole favor a more active
and stronger market,

who divulge these interesting facts.
What is more, the penalties pre-

going to be adequate protection to
the big tax payer who is worrying
over what the assessor may do to
him.
The intricacies of the income tax
law which have been causing no end

law suits and great anxiety, have
become the subject Of high priced

which was contained in a souvenir

Bismarck basketball fans will be
given a treat Saturday evening, when
the fast Co. A team will meet the
Minneapolis Ascension quintet, the
champions of the Twin Cities.
According to all indications, this
game should be the best played at
Bismarck thus far. this season, II not
in several seasons past. The As
tensions have a brilliant record and
their playing is said to be a revela.
ton in the art of basketball playing.
On the other hand the local team
is a speedy organization and should
give the Minneapolis men a battle
right from the whistle. The Ascen-
sion list of victories includes tri-
umphs over the Triple B. team from
Billings, Mont. the New York Ma
tionals and the Fond du Lac Nation
al champions.
In order to secure the appearance
of the Ascensions the management
Of the local team have been com
PEELED to guarantee $45, as well as
agree to pay the hotel expenses Of
the six men carried by the Assem-
sions. Therefore, it is up to the fans
in Bismarck to see that there is Il
good attendance at the game.

Passing of d S. Weir Mitchell

Dr. S. Weir Mitchell, noted author and physician,
died at his home in Philadelphia, Jan. A.. Death was
due TO influenza, accumulated by his advanced aye.
He was in his S5th year. Funeral services were
held Tuesday. Jan. c..
Dr. Mitchell was stricken Monday, Dec. 20, with
what was at first thought to be a mild attack of
grippe and until Saturday no apprehension for his
recovery was felt. His condition, however, became
grave Saturday night and the distinguished patient
did not rally, the end coming a few hours later.
Members of his immediate family were with him
during the last hours of his life.
Dr. Mltchels fame, both as a physician and an
author, was international, although he probably was
more widely known as a writer Of fiction. His last
book appeared a few months ago, under the title of
west Ways One of his best known books is
Hugh Wynne.'
DIR. Mitchell was noted as d neurologist, and his
medical works were largely on the subject of nervous
diseases. He held memberships in medical societies
in many parts of the world.

The Enqlish LANGUAGE

Talk about revision of the tariff-what the Eng:
lish speaking people need is a revision of the ian.
guage. '... Is
There is getting to be too much of it for any use.
A new dictionary of the English language, just out,
contains nearly half a million words. -i...
This is a far cry from the year 1916, when John
+ Bullokar, the first English photographer, issued his
'Compleat English Dictionary" with a few more than
five thousand words in it. The rate Of growth in
three centuries, therefore, is four new VOLTS a day.
1t was bad enough when a dictionary was issued
in the latter part of the nineteenth century containing
two hundred thousand words; but four hundred and
fifty thousand words is too, too much.
No human mind can know so many words. Tie
average individual of fair education gets along pretty
comfortably with a vocabulary of a very few thous-
and words. The number of people able to express
their wants and thoughts with vocabularies limited
to u few hundred words is enormous.
The Congressional Record is too bulky already.
The flow of after-dinner oratory and stumpspeaking
is torrcntial enough in all conscience. The world is
being drowned n a diluted flood of words, in which
the island of real thought are rare as cases in a
desert.
Where do all the words come from? New inyeE-
lions each bring a little corps Of new words i'll their
train. Science is adding formidable polysyllables
yearly. Slang is graduating constantly a large crop
Of new words seeking and gaining the polite society
of the dictionary. Tie slang word which today's
dictionary rejects with scorn demands its place in to-.
morrow's dictionary, and gets it. r
What is needed is a revision VI the language-a
cutting out of dead wood, an excision of superiiuous
%verbiage. If about seventy-iive per cent of the words
in the new dictionary could be thrown out and for
gotten thought would be clearer and misunderstood
ings among men would be fewer.
The idea of a propaganda for the revision Of the
language should be suggested to Mr.. Carnegie before
he spends all his money.-Duluth Herald.
