PRESERVATION AND PUBLICITY
FOR THESE

Governor Brewster is telling us
that the spirit CT Maine is youthful,
and he cites examples to emphasize
the claim. He also reminds Us that
there are excellent reasons Tor
cherishing and considering the works
of those who wrought here when the
communities of Maine were young IN
years.
Lord Bolingbroke quoted approv-
ingly the ancients who concluded
that history is philosophy teaehins
by examples. People, consciously or
unconscio .,sly, seem to be aware OF
that truta. Anyhow many OF them
manifest noticeable interest In his
torical matters.
Governor Brewster finds this IN
terest displayed by our summer
visitors. Doubtless many Of them as
school children became interested IN
events with which our historical
places are connected and this inter
est is awakened when they learn OF
the opportunity to see with thelr
own eyes. So these historical places
are seen to be among Names assets
In more ways than one. Wisdom
suggests both preservation and pup
licity respecting them.

ELIMINATE THE CAUSES

That the child labor problem is
not one to be solved by legislation
alone, is the conclusion Of the Ma
tional Industrial Conference Board
after an investigation of the situa-
ton. As for children under fourteen
years Of age their employment in in
dustries under present conditions
the Board finds to be Improbable; !;
also that the disposition of youth to
leave school and 90 to work depends
on many things, such as racial
customs. parental influence, whether
the school is able to arouse their in
terest. Lack Of this Is found to play
an important part; likewise the need
Of wages to support living condi-
tons. Increasing efficiency Of pro-
duction would raise the standard OF
the wage Garner and help to remedy
conditions now calling for the work
of youth. Prohibiting their working
would nowise contribute to their
support.
The Board finds that the great ma
jority Of children who work are not
employed in the manufacturing in.

ton by the Piscataquis Farm Bur-
eau and Extension Service will be

PUT THE MARK ON THEM?

Mr.. George Anderson, wanted tor
the murder OF Ben Hanee, appears
to merit the title of the great Amer
lean traveller. All the evidence in
dicates that he has been roaming the
country since his escape from Cncie
Sans custody at Atlanta. II anyone
supposes it would be possible Tor
him to go about this way II the
forces Of law were as well organized
and alert as are the forces OF crime
we would like to know upon what
such supposition could be based.
A scientific expedition is soon to
be sent out to shoot tags into the
blubber Of whales so that later they
may be identified. wherever they
may roam. OF course some would
say it was brutal to mark criminals
for identification. II all other ef-
forts fail, however. We might be
justified in doing this in the case OF
the worst criminals. Cropping the
ears of Kirby, for instance, would
hardly excite much sympathy here
abouts.
One thing is reasonably certain:
public impatience with present con-
ditions is getting out Of bounds and
will not die down instantly. The
criminal element is not permitting
the public to forget. Daily 1t out
RACES human sensibilities. Men, of
whom once such an attitude would
not have been suspected, are now
asking that whipping be established.
They produce data to show that 1t
is one of the most effectual deter
rents of crime known to penology.
A thorough flogging takes something
out of the criminal which he now
fiaunts in the face Of the public.
If some check be not soon had on
this condition of things the pendu-
lum of public sentiment, which has
swung high toward sympathetic
helpfulness Of the criminal. will
swing to the other extreme and there
will be brutalities committed in the
name of the law which society may
later regret.

On the whole. theories are an ex-
cellent ferment for mentality. but
until proven they should bear their
proper label and not be confused
with fact. For instance there has
been a generally accepted theory
that the speed Of projectile from q
gun increases for some distance
after leaving the muzle. propelled by
successive explosions of gas behind
it. Now it has been found possible
to get better photographs by aid OF
an electric spark with a duration OF
a millionth Of a second. These
photographs show the theory is not
tenable as the projectile's speed ea-
ceeds that Of the gas and y draws

Not Dead, But
(The Nation)


The Ku .Klux Klan is not dead
yet; it can marshal 10000 Klansmen
willing to don sheet and peaked
nightcap and march through the
streets of Washington on a sweiter-
ing August Saturday. But when the
Klan announces its parades in time
to sell concessions in advance to the
hot-dog vendors, when it charters
trains and has itself photographed
Haunting the star-spangled banner
on the Capitol steps, it ceases to be
either a fascinating mys.ety or a
threat to society. 1t has settled
down to be just one more in the long
list of shriners, templars, tall cedars,
veiled prophets, red eagles, white
rats, western bees, blue geese, and
other dress.up orders which serve IN
their solemn way to let loose the
repressed play instincts Of grown-up
men who have forgotten how to play
naturally. Gone Is the sudden drama
of the flaming cross at midnight;
gone the passion to regulate other
peoples lives and habits in pic
turesque disregard of the law. The
Klan is no longer even 100 per cent
white, Protestant. and Nordic. Its
chiefs confer with good" Negroes
like Marcus Garvey; it denies class,
race, or religious prejudice; 1t buys
its klaverns from Loebs and Woolfs
and sells to Fabians and klotzmans.

Bar Harbor has lost another of its
ancient hotels in the burning of the
Mt. Desert Inn, known to thousands
of visitors to the queen Of summer
resorts as the Lyman House, says
The Bangor Commercial. Built
more than half a century ago the
LYMAN House had sheltered q
myriad Of guests and in the days OF
Bar Harbor's first popularity as a
summer resort was one Of the most
fashionable centers. One by one the
hotels that were famous In the
early years of the summering place
have departed. Tho Grand Central
the West End and the Rodick
House, to mention but a few. are nc
more and contrary to the history OF
most popular resorts have not been
replaced. In the eighties Bar Har-
Dor might have been classed amons
the hotel watering places but the
charm of the place was found sc
great that those who came to the
hotels, constructed summer villas
and became more closely connected
with the life of the resort. The
Rodick House once catering to a
thousand guests became almost de-
serted in its last years. Bar Harbor
today has some of the early hotels
reconstructed and renovated and OF
fering superior accommodations and
receiving excellent patronage but 1t
