J.W. Chase, Of Ellsworth, was . recent
caller at the Journal office, and remarked
that be had noticed several items in the
Journal regarding old coins, and thought
he would put . few of his in his pocket as
be was coming to the capital. They in
cluded six United States pennies, OF dates
1913, 1874, 1875, 1873, 1877 and 179S; .
Massachusetts half-cent of 1857; half
cents OF 1874 and 1877; and two Massa-
chusetts cents OF 1887 and 17Ss. The 1913
and 17Sa pennies, the 1796 pennies,
with liberty cap and flowing hair,
and the Massachusetts, half cent are
very rare. The penny Of 1794 is
marked on the edge Zone Hundred for .
Dollar" and the half-cents OF 1794-7 are
marked in the same place, 1.-TWO Hundred
for Dollar" They are all in fine con-
dition, and Mr.. Chase handles them as
though fully aware Of their value. He is
an ardent collector and has fine collec-
tion at his home in Ellsworth.-Kennebec

Concentration Of schools.


Ellsworth is nearing the end OF Its
first school year under the district
superintendent plan. We have yet
to hear the first complaint from q
citizen Of Ellsworth that the expert
ment has not been satisfactory. The
year has been marked by quicken
ing of interest in their work on the
part of the teachers and pupils, and
by an awakening Of interest in the
schools on the part Of the citizens.
The bugaboo of politics has been
practically eliminated, and the citi-
zens can get together on common
ground for free and unprejudiced dis
cussion OF school matters, having in
view only the best good for the
schools and for the community.
The time seems ripe, therefore, for
another step in advance, in the way
OF school concentration or consolida-
ton. There are several schools in
Ellsworth which might well be con-
0Ou0AtGo WILL OtAOk oSAOOA0t Aot WHY
for the sake of greater school effic-
iency, but for economy. We believe
the school department is the Last
in which economy should be practiced
If at the expense Of efficiency, but
when efficiency and economy both
point in the direction OF school con-
centration, it seems the wise and logi-
cal course to pursue.
Did the finances of the city permit,
q large central school building, to &C.
commodate pupils from all sections Of
the city proper, would be the ideal
solution, but this 10 out OF the ques-
ton, for the present, at least. Some
thing can be done, however, in the
way Of concentration of the schools,
II the parents will cooperate with
the school officials. The Water street
school, for instance, might we'll be
discontinued, and the children now
attending there sent to the Pine
street school. The same might DO
done at the Infant street school, the
children being sent to the Falls
school. We believe these two con-
solicitations alone would result In 8
saving to the city of from $500 to $500
a year, while the change would be q
benefit to the children through the
we'll recognized fact that the greater
competition among pupils of large
school is an incentive to better school
work.
This matter OF school consolidation
is not new proposition; it has been
preached in years past, but between
parents and politics, obstacles that
were insurmountable were always
thrown in the way. We believe the
present school board, If 1t should take
the matter up, would find the parents
In q more receptive mood than form
eriy, and more ready to cooperate
with the school officials.

No PEACE UNLESS
GERMANS MAKE
FULL AMENDS
Lloyd George Says Must Ac-
code to Terms Before
Negotiation.

LONDON. Dec. 19.-prcmicr Lloyd
George said in House of Commons to
day that it was felt they should know
before entering on negotiations that
Germany was prepared TO acceed to
the only terms whcr"On it. was possible
for peace to BE- obtained and main.
tanned in Europe. The Premier said
that without preparation, peace would
be impossible.
The first appearance Of David Lloyd
George before the House Of Commons
AZ Premier was made today in cir.
cumatanceS seldom If ever faced by Il
new holder OF the Office. Even if the
peace proposals Of Cent?! powers
had not interviewed his statement of
policy Of his government which was
chosen in reply to II public demand
for more vigorous prosecution Of the
war would have marked important
step III world conflict
Mr.. Lloyd George said there were
no proposals for peace To enter into
proposals. OF which they had no knuwl
edS" wa" to put their heads into Il
moose with the rope end in the hands
Of Germany.
Much as they !ongcd for it the Pre-.
mi"r added the Central powers note
and me speech preceding it had af-
!ordcG small encouragement and hop
tor honorable and lasting peace.
Mr.. George said Our answer will
be given in full accord with our allies.
Each Of the allies hav" separately and
independently arrived at same con.
clusion. | am glad Of tnc first answer
given by France and Russia" Nj
Lloyd Gc0rg" said. The allies would
insist that the only end %! the var must
he complete guaranty against Prus.
sian militarisIh disturbing the peace of
Europe"
The formal reply OF the allies. the
Premier said. will be given in the
course OF Il few days.
The Premier said. "Wc will await
Until We hear what terms and guaran
tees there arc surer than those which
Germany broke. Meanwhile We put
our trust in our unErokcn army"
