~ other large cities, thoughtful
men and women interested
in the social settlement and aware
of its Importance to the tenement
community are confronted by the
problem of what step the settlement
must next take in the furtherance
of social development.
. With war activities and war
needs, as we'll as the increased cost
of merely living, appreciably de-
pleting and diverting the funds
heretofore invested in such philan-
thropic institutions, social settle
ments are suffering financially and
A., are seriously concerned for the
future. Along with this problem
another and graver crisis has arisen
as result of the settlements very
efficiency and thoroughness as a So
cial laboratory, namely, the growth
and adoption by public institutions
of those public benefactions which
have had their birth in the settle
ments.
Does this, therefore, render the
settlement unnecessary? Has this
old and faithful stepping stone be-
tween the alien and American citi-
zenry, this interpreter of the coun-
try's ideals and customs, run the
gamut of it's usefulness? In order
to continue rendering service and
filling a real and actual need shall
the settlements of our large cities
find some new activity or develop
some new and better way of carry
ing on the old? Or shall they main
tain a qualitative, rather than
quantitative, standard, and, appre-
ciating the value of personal con-
tact, continue on their old course?
There are other solutions, but none
can be considered hastily. Careful
deliberation and serious thought are
being given to the problem by all
those who are commemorative real
ize that the outcome of their DELHI

Element as factor in social devel-
opment.
University Settlement
Must Answer
Perhaps the most representative
of the institutions faced with this
question is the University Settle
ment Of this city, the first settle
ment established in this country and
the pioneer in so many movements
which have led to civic and social
development. Its history is of un-
usual interest in that it is an out
growth of the policies and principles
of famous Toynbee Hall in England,
and it's work is still developed along
much the same lines as that older
institution. 1t has so far met all
problems with courageous philoso-
ply and surmounted with flying
colors the many difficulties with
which it has been faced.
The two problems now confront
ing it-one a question Of finance,
the other of policy-are being
weighed with the same optimistic
thought that has been found in all
crises, and which, in this instance,
has resulted in a solution for the
first and several as yet embryonic
plans for the latter. Because this
settlement is typical of many an
other, because it is attempting to
meet successfully the same situation
that confronts other settlements,
and because in the one solution it
has hit upon a revolutioniZing
scheme that would tend to make it
truly democratic institution, it's
birth and growth are worthy Of con-
Sideration.

The arrival of Capt. Sumner c. Hill
at his home in Sanford last week was
genuine surprise to his many
friends. He returned under orders u
report at Fort Monroe, where he eX-
pected to sail again for France with
new troops. Capt. Hill is the second
Sanford man to arrive home from
France. He was captain of the old
9Th Company, which left more than a
year ago and which has since been
known as the 23d Company Some
time after his arrival with the San
ford company at Fort Williams, Port-
land Harbor, he resigned as captain
to become a battalion adjutant and
was later sent across, where he took
part in several big battles. He was
wounded twice and gassed once.
DR.. Richard T. Leader of Lewiston,
who is stationed at Camp Greene, S.
c., has just been promoted from cap

was graduated from the Jordan High
school and from Bowdoin Medical
School, the latter in 1902, since which
time he has practiced in Lewiston.
Mrs. Charles f. Inman of 333 Grove
street, Bangor, received a letter from
France last Thursday which con-

brief as it was written by a friend OF
Lieut.. Inman who had both arms

Stimed Voices.

The following statement wac is
sued yesterday. from the Republican
Publicity Association headquarters
in Washington through its president,
Hon. Jonathan Bourne. Jr.:
NO other business has been hi.
harder by the war than the news
paper business, particularly in the
smaller cities and country towns.
The large metropolitan papers have
probably suffered least. During 1917.
more than 1900 publications went out
of business. After making allowance
for new papers started, it appears
that there was a net loss of 81 dailies
and $50 weeklies.
1.-THE mortality statistics for 1918
will probably show as great a loss,
for the shortage of papers, the in
creasing cost of all kinds of supplies,
and the higher wages. together with
the heavy call upon newspaper men
for military service, have been more
severe this year than last.
And one Of the serious features Of
the situation is that the people of
tHC SooAIAy piOcociy w INV ASe~AhAS
that the most valuable portion of the
press has sustained the greatest loss.
Under popular government the coun-
try press, including not only country
weekles, but the smaller dailies, is
the real voice of the people. Editors
of large metropolitan papers do not
have and cannot have the close touch
with the people that is a necessary
incident Of the life of the country
editor. Just as Washington, D. c., is
the poorest place in the country to
get a line on the political thought of
the nation, so the big city newspaper
Office is the poorest place to get a
correct picture of national thought,
either political or otherwise. The
people of the United States should
realize this, and should see to it that
whatever else happens the country
press shall be maintained.
Freedom Of speech and Of the
press is the first essential of Re-
publican form of government, for the
representatives of the people cannot
know the thoughts and aspirations
and desires of their constituents I'M
tcSS NOlCcu through Tie nleUluiI1Snlp
Of the local press to which they have
access either directly. through the
publication of communications, or in
directly through the editors inter-
probation of the views of his COM
munity.
THE country press, including the
smaller dailies, represents the pro-
ducing element of our national life.
The large metropolitan press repre-
sents the commercial factors. Just
as production is the first essential of
a permanent prosperity, so the main
tenance Of that portion of the press
that speaks for the producers is most
important.
THE metropolitan press has it's
place in our national life and nobody
wishes it i'll. The fact remains,
however, that the vital interests of
the nation are most promptly and
most clearly represented and the
thought of the people most freely and
most courageously voiced by the
country press. The people of the
country may not see it now, but
they will some day realize that the
large preponderance of suspensions
among the weekly publications is a
menace to national welfare"

Make His Retirement Perm anen Mt.

Make no mistake about it, There
world is safe for democracy. The
conflict with imperial Germany is ap-
parently at an end. but we cannot
even be sure of that. One William
Hohenzollern. who was the sole in
stigator Of the greatest tragedy the
world has ever known, has signed a
paper renouncing his imperial office
and has fed from his country. But
he is practically at large in Holland
and near enough to Germany to COM
municate with friends at home. those
submarine commanders, for instance,
who are still loyal and refuse to re-
place the imperial standard with the
red flag.
In 1914 Napoleon. presumably de-
feated and impotent, was sent under
guard as a prisoner to Elba, and the
Congress of Vienna gathered to re-
construct Europe out Of the wreck
left by his campaigns. Napoleon was
in constant communication with the
continent and kept the closest watch
on the trend of events in spite of his
guards. When the time was ripe
when the armies of the Allies had re-
Taxed their discipline. when the at
tention of Europe was focused on
the peace congress. he quietly left
mer place as Emperor of the French
nation and commander of the French
armies, who welcomed him back with
tears Of JOY. He raised force of
cs7 900 men and set out for the north

Days was n period of genuine terro.
for Europe until the man who ha =!
thrown il out of balance was safely
on board the Bellcrophon headed for
ST Helena.
We have TO reason to believe that
William Hohenzollern's dreams Of a
lifetime have been given I'D entirely
because he has been prevented from
realizing them. but it is for us to see
that he never again has an opportu-
nifty. An admirer Of Napoleon and :.
great student OF his character and
deeds, he might-had he the chance
make n break for conquest similar &c
that when Napoleon rushed back to
France from Elba. To prevent just
such an attempt. the American boys
must not be taken from Europe until
the ex-Kaiser's future is fully settled.
That is the reason why today 25o.O0o
