Gln A nd Si or (Official City, State and County Newspaper) Finding the Utopia It was back in 1887—less than 40 years ago—that The hero, Julian West, a young Bostonian of 1887. He found a smooth-running society composed of individuals who could not believe his tale of how things went back in 1887. This Utopia, most marvelsus of all, was so regu- luted that human beings could have the elementary physical functions of life taken care of—food, shel- ter, warmth, and yet have time and energy and means left to get ut some of the ends rather than the means of life. Which, ufter all, isgabout the only eternally big human problem—how to'keep going and yet have a good time, in spurts, at least—how to “get some- thing out of life.” The only reascn for recalling “Looking Back- ward” right now is that so many ways are being tried today to make this sort of Utopia come true. Shorter working hours, higher wages, all sorts of better employment condition regulations, seek to make werk an easier and pleasanter thing. And the radio, the theatre, the automobile, the Maybe by 2000 A. D. this Utopia will be found.

The dashing lover Of course Leopcld did not come to Astrid on a fiery steed, but he came by third class rail compart- ment, and that was his way of showing Princess Astrid that he was coming for her and not for the pomp and glory and the circumstance of a political alliance.

No human sympathy remains in this hectic, money-mad day.

A few days ago “Old Pete” went into a mine down at Cambridge, 0. He did not come out. If a hundred men had been entombed alive, there could not have been more alarm and feverish action in this little mining town. Squad after squad of men went down into the inky blackness, coming out with clothing torn, bodies exhausted. Nor was it only the miners who groped for “Old Pete.” The mine officials, the state mine inspector, @ppeared on the scene, directing the search.

It will be reassuring to parents to see with’ what intelligence, patience and skill their children a1 a rule being taught. The constant wonder is that such instruction, in mcrals and manners as Well as in subjects of study, should not make itself4more felt in the streets and in the homes. One steps from a school of cleanliness, order, honor, beauty, cheerfulness, into a street where there is litter, refuse, dispute, disorder, selfish disregard of others, ugliness, recklessness, vice. The schools are the brightest spots in many parts of. the city and gen- erally ‘the most hopeful institution that democracy has to count upon. The constant surprise is that the adult world is not better than it is with such tuition. But one has to search outside the school for the reason. It was suggested by the health commissioner a few days ago that the school day should be short- ened for reasons of health, But the remedy for conditions which he had in mind is not shortening the school day but adopting the program which several of the larger cities’ in America have put into: successful operation—a platoon plan which di- vides the time among the varied activities that may most profitably engage the child's attention and incidentally makes fuller and more eeonomical use of the schoo} plant. It is a significant commentary on the commissioner's proposal that the most hope- | ful way of develcping health habits in the homes of certain districts is through the lessons in | sonal hygiene that the children‘learn in the schools. Visitation of the school in its daily routine’ will have a wholesome effect in bringing into closer and more intelligent and sympethetic cooperation those who have the welfare of the child most at heart, the parent and the teacher. ° Incidentally it will not: be the home alone that will benefit by this; but the pub- Nid at large, tie state itself.
