TOO FREE IND EASY

1t is possible that because the chill
dren in this city are such good chill
dren, all things considered, we have
fallen into the error Of being too free
and easy with them. However that
may be, the fact remains they are
permitted to attend public meetings
without proper supervision, and being
children, make nuisances of them
selves altogether too frequently.
We are reminded of this in connec-
ton with the free public rehearsal
given by the Augusta Symphony Or
chestra at the Opera House, Sunday
evening. The concert was an excel
lent one. All who wished to come
found open doors. There were no
door keepers, no ushers, no police, no
money to pay for such supervision.
The assumption was that only such
as delight in music would attend and
give respectful attention.
AS it was many children came and
quite large number of these found
seats in the gallery, Throughout the
concert their childish pranks and tit
tering were a source of annoyance
Many of these children should not
have been out on the streets unat-
tended at that hour. They derived
no benefit from the concert, deprived
others, and must have annoyed the
orchestra. We are too free and easy
in permitting children unattended to
make nuisances of themselves in
public places.

Nature Palace in

palace of nature has been preserved
by President Coolidge's recent proc,
lamation establishing the CARLSBAD
Cave National Monument, located 70
miles southwest of Carlsbad, New
Mexico. Its beauty reminds one OF
the illustrations of Dore in Dantes
Inferno, government experts who ex-
plored the cavern report They trav-
eled several miles through under
ground passages, no one of which was
explored to it's end. They descendeu
vertically about 500 feet but the
depth of the cave is unknown.
So far as known no limestone cav.
ern exists whose chambers approacn,
those of Carlsbad Cave. The internal
decorations rival in variety. beauty
and magnitude those of any cav
heretofore described. The chambers
are of phenomenal size and the oe-
posits of travertine so volumlnou'
and varied in form as to be OF un-
usual scientific as well as scenic IN
terest.
The new national monument COM
prises an area of 719 acres OF lanu,

ago and was first known as bas
Cave" because T. was the hahitat y,

ON THE WAY

An interview obtained by the Bos-
ton Herald with Michael ]. Healey
who has been at the head of the
police force of Manchester, N. H,
since 1892 is interesting for several
reasons. This, of course is not sur
prisins. A man who has been able
to hold down that kind of a job for
more than thirty years in all kinds
of political weather'is good assurance
of interest to start with.
1t is possible that after his long
experience he has shrewd guess as
to what folks would consider a good
interview; anyhow he supplies the
demand. After sc years of acquaint-
ance with the underworld he con-
cludes the world is getting better, his
part of it, anyway. The indubitable
inference from that is there has been
good man on the job. But he calls
upon the recollections Of old timers
for verification.
He reminds them that when he
went on the force the population of
Manchester was only about 10000,
but there were parts of the city
where the police found it necessary
to patrol in pairs. "In the Bar
barry Coast there were 40 sa-
looms in a single block. There
were 400 or 500 saloons in the whole
city and the amount of drunkenness
was something Of which you have no
conception"
He would not have us expect too
much from the prohibitory law while
those are on earth who insist on get
ting alcohol in some form, neverthe-
less he is confident that we may ex-
pect full benefit from it when the
younger generation come into charge
of affairs. He would have only stiff
Jail sentences for the drunken drivers
| OF cars and doesn't indulge in senti-
mentality with respect to law break
ers. 1T is best for us all, best for the
man himself who commits a crime
that he be punished" he declares,
and he is right if the punishment be
melted out with justice and due con-
sideration be given to treating the
criminal wisely when he is under re-
straint.
| All in all an optimistic outlook.
He probably is aware that the public
likes optimism but it must be ad-
mitted he makes out a good case.
From all of which it may be inferred
the veteran officer concludes that
even if the millennium isn't near at
hand it is on the way.

RELIEF IN GERMANY

Commander Towne of the Maine
Department, American Legion, an
nounces that the Legion will not lend
its recommendation to the campaign
to raise a fund for the, relief of Ger
man children He does not think the
need of American assistance has been
sufficiently well established and he
thinks the money could be used to
better advantage at home.
Charity begins at home where the
need Is established. That such a
need exists in this country hardly ad-
mits of doubt, but certainly not, if
we consider all the instrumentalities
now at work to relieve it, to the ex-
tent that 1t must in countries more
impoverished and lacking in such
means of aid.
1t Is reasonable to conclude that
dire distress exists especially among
many Of the German people, who
have had least to do with Germanys
offending. Surely the children have
not offended: surely those who by
lives of thrift laid by a little for old
age and who have been robbed of
their savings by the Ubiquitous finan-
ci... methods for which they are not
responsible, are not offending. We
cannot believe that such relief as we
may be able to bring to these can fail
to be productive Of good.
hut first we would have accurate
information respecting this call for
relief; would like to know what, IL
anything, the industrialists of Ger
many are doing to relieve the people
they have robbed. True charity, 1t
may be said, does not, when it finds
human being perishing in the high
way go about ringing doorbells Of the
neighbors before rendering first aid.
But II we are to have an organized
drive for definite purpose 1T should
be accompanied by an inaccurate
statement of conditions. Notwith-
standing the conflicting claims-all
the more because Of these-we should
have more definite informa ton than
any that has yet been brought to our
attention. BY this we do not mean
need does not exist; but what of
its extent and what are those more
intimately concerned doing or going
to do, to relieve 1t? We may give,
should give. we believe. but the
amount Of the giving should depend
on clearer conception of the actual
situation than has yet been afforded.
