Tended them on the plea of small size

creed that those who drove them away
should assign them a spot where they
could retire and live comfortably But
the most curious case of all was in 1887,
when in Savoy prosecution was insti-
tuted against certain weevil or vine
grubs. The counsel for the grubs pre-
scented argument after argument, until
the prosecution became worn out and
finally offered the insects a locality to
which they might retire. Their counsel
first demanded delay to consider the
offer; then came into court several days
after, and in the name of his clients 1.-THE
grubs), declined to accept it, because the
locality was sterile and produced abso-
lutely nothing. The prosecutor joined

force in that old day, now more than a
half-century behind us, was personal and
family prestige, augmented in men and
women distinguished in society quite as
much as they might be in literature, i'll
war, or in public affairs The sub
stantial governing force formed an
element composed of the old families, in
Guiding the parson, the squire, a fey
landed proprietors, possibly the school
master, and the village merchant To this
social nucleus came at times as visitors
the most distinguished personages of the
land, who left their impress upon the So
cial structure of the little town.
Judge Chamberlain maintained that
even by 1887 the old New England towns,
and their peculiar cultivation, had gone
forever. But he very hopefully relied up
on such agencies as the public library to
take their place IF the old had gone, .
he said, Eve must build anew; for
whether New England is to continue New
England or is to become New Ireland, Sc
long as her mountains stand and her
rivers run, and human nature is the
same, she will remain the abode of wise
and prosperous people Her past assures
the speakers optimism is justified by
the development of the past thirty years
In that time the public library has pro
duced its generation of people. What is
it like? Does it repeat and maintain the
cultural suggestions of the former gener-
alton? Are New England villages pro
ducing any more such ripe examples Of
an exquisite cultivation as was Judge
Mellep Chamberlain himself, or the late
Henry NJ. Alden, editor Of Harper,
Magazine and author of God in His
World '-who seemed to emerge from his
native Mt Taber very much the same

himself had been nurtured. Judge
Chamberlain recalled the fact that forty
years before the date on which he spoke
that is to say, in the year 1917 he
had been school master at Brattleboro;
and he made the claim that a peculiar
and delightful form of cultivation existed
in the town at that time which had since
totally disappeared. This culture was
based upon the personal influence of
well-bred and refined men and women,
constituting an aristocracy in very true
sense. The ruling social and cultural

Morality the Object.

The end of all political struggle is
to establish morality as the basis of
all legislation. IT'S not free institu-

end-no, but only the means. Morality
is the object of government. We want
a state Of things in which crime will
not pay; state of things which al

compatible with the liberty Of every
other man.-Emerson.

that the concerto in b fat has been
