SERVICE IS RESUMED WEDNESDAY, AFTER
REACHING AN AGREEMENT TO ARB|TRATE

lowed by Sec. Charles Harbutt of
the stronger churches in the outlying
districts of their sections, a sort of
extension work.
Mr.. Aliens Address
Prin. E. L. Allen Of Good Will in his
address on THE Young People and
the Broader Vision outlined work
for boys in the country who are not
in school and unconnected with any
church. Mr.. Allen has in mind the
forming Of reading clubs and musical
clubs to develop the boys according to
their various abilities so as to make
them able to increase their powers by
themselves. This is adapted to many
boys whom the churches cannot hope
to reach and who for various reasons
are not in school, though of that age.
Communion service conducted by
Rev. r. L. Sheaff of Norridgewock and
H. P. Woodin of Auburn concluded
the afternoon meeting.

Bakers Orchestra. The address of the
evening was exceptionally fine, being
on the subject of Opportunities for
Young People in Christian Work. by
Rev. James Austin Richards of Mt.
Vernon church, Boston. His main
theme was the change that has come
about in religious ideals. He contrast
ed the old theology directed towards
the saving of ones soul alone and the
new activities directed toward the SER
vice of others.
Final Session
The concluding session Wednesday
morning opened with devotional SER
vice conducted by Rev. T. H. Wilson
Of the Congregational church, Show
hogan, and was followed by reports
Of committees and unfinished business.
Rev. Frederick H. Means Of Madison

Young Peoples Conferences and the
oGod They Do" Mr.. Means was one
Of those most interested in the forma-
ton OF the Somerset Boys Federation

character Building and the Public
Schools" was ably presented by Prin-
cipal A. G. Johnson of Madison and it
was the vote Of the association that
this paper be published in one Of the
county papers for the benefit Of the
general public. Mr.. Johnson took up
the different factors which form young
people, the church, the home and the
school. He considered that the home
was not doing it's part and that if the
home assumed it's entire responsible
ity it would make matters much more
easier for the school teachers. He gave
an idea Of the part the citizens could
have in providing good buildings and
healthful environment. The work OF
the public school in character build
ing was divided into several parts.
Athletics rightly managed would Gre
ate a higher moral standard Punctu-
atty insisted upon in the school, hon.

ton for others which was inculcated in
the schools we're other foundation
stones in character building. Frank
discussion of the subject followed in
which Supt. c. E. Ball Of Bingham
Miss Dorothy M. Elliott, sub-principal
OF Skowhegan High school, were the
chief speakers.

Continued on Page 2-CoIumn ~

respect your attitude. We admit your
claim to sincere patriotism to be as just
as ours; we do not ascrbe your desire
to avoid war to be a fear of death to
yourselves or your sons but rather to
your sense of the horrors, injustice and
lneffectiveness of settling any interna-
tional issue by such a brutal arbitra-
ment. Nevertheless we differ with you
In Judgment that in the world of nations
as they are, war can be completely
avoided. We believe it is still necessary
to use threat of overwhelming force
Of a great league with a willingness to
make the threat good-in order to fright
en- nations into a use of rational and
peaceful means to settle their issues with
their associates of the league. Nor are
we militants or jingoes. We are trying
to follow a middle path
Issues CIassed
Issues between nations are Of two
classes: First, issues that can be DECIDED
on principles Of international law and
equity, called justiciable. Second, issues
that cannot BE- decided on such principles
of law and equity, but which might be
quite as irritating and provocative of
war, called non uStlClaDle.
We propose that for justiciable
questions we shall have an impartial
court to which all questions arising
between members Of the league shall
be submitted. If the court finds the
question justiciable it shall adjust; if
it finds IL not it shall refer it for in
vestigation, hear argument and recon-
mend a compromise.
I'VE do not propose to enforce COM
Iiiance either with the courts judg-
ment or the conciliation commissions
recommendation. We feel that we
ought not to attempt too much-we
believe that the forced submission and
the truce taken to investigate the jul
dicial decision or the conciliatory COM
promise recommended will form a ma
terial inducement to peace. 1t will
cool the heat of passion and will give
the men of peace in each nation time
to still the jingces. The league of
peace will furnish great opportunity
for more definite formulation Of the
principles Of international law. The
arbitratal court will amplify it and
enrich 1t in their application Of its
general principles to particular cases.
They will create body of judge made
law Of the highest value. Then the
existence of ~, 'oop1 will lead to
overcoming congresses of the
league, which, acting in a quasi-leg-
islative capacity may widen the scope
Of international law in a way that
court may not feel able or competent
to do.
I'm it's practical application diff
culties now unforeseen may arise, but
we believe it offers a working hypoth-
esis upon which successful arrange
ment can be made.
ut is objected that we only pro-
pose to include the more powerful
nations. Wen gladly include them
all. But we don't propose to have
the constitution of our court compli-
Gated by demand for equal repre-
sentation of the many smaller ma
tons.
1T is suggested that we invite
conference Of neutral nations to bring
about measures for present peace and
to formulate demands as to the pro-
lection Of neutral rights. This may
be good plan, but, as Kipling says,
that Is another story"

Some Of the planks which should be
included in the 1916 platform of the Re.

architect as he is reputed to be, Protec-

confront all good statesmen. The Ter
Commandments, Mr.. White declares, Will

Hon. e. c. PIummer
The American voter of today cannot be
won by party name conjury, according
to Hon. E. c. Plummer; ne will attach
himself not to the party name but to the
principles which the name represents.
Consequently such meetings as the one
held in Auburn hall are in order, for the
voter must be given more opportunity
to learn the principles of parties and to
study those principles, and campaigns
must be waged on intelligence and not
on conjury if the party system is to con-
tinue a success. Mr.. Plummer urged
that meetings for political discussion be
often called together by the Republicans
of the district to the end that voters
might learn the value of Republican
tenets.
