To get this experience you must be perfectly familar with the city as set forth in Hull House maps and notes. These locate the different races and classes 80 cxactly that you know just where to go to.find what you want, For instance, all the dark blue parts of the map show you The to compel schools a ew York legis systematic re passed an act teaching in all the to the effects of alcohol and to alth.

In the same way yel- luw indicates that here live the self-support- ing poor, while the purple districts are in- habited by what is known as the “relief” class, Other races and other classes are indicated by other colors. These maps were prepared by residents of Hull House and this brings me to the subject of my story. It s not a reformatory, it is not a char- itable institution in the ordinary sense of the word, since every one pays for what he gets there, but it can perhaps be best de- fined as a soclal experiment. POVERTY IN PLENTY, The Nineteonth ward is the most densely populated district of Chicago. Nineteen dif. ferent nationalities are represented by its inhabitants and the sanitary conditions are something frightful to contemplate. Plenty of children here, half clad, half fed and wholly neglected. How could it be other- wise? Whole families live In one room and in thousands of cases the joint earnings of such families do not amount to $6 a week. As you wander about through the narrow, flithy alleys and miscrable tenements you begin to understand the why and the where- fore of the anarchist, and go away feeling utterly helpless and miserable. But this feeling of helplessness did not overcome two brave women who flye years ago came to make their home in the very midst of this squalor and want and sin. They believed that soclal fntercourse could best express the growing sense of the economic unity of | soclety, and 5o moved in. Think of attempting to influence such a gommunity through its soclal life, where the only gutherings were about the doors of a saloon to see the police drag out the participants in a fight or in the halls of some miscrable tenement to see a drunkard | beating his wife and children. But these brave women belleved that the saloons were the soclal centors because they had no rivals and that many men and, horrible to add, many women who frequented them, would soon desert them If something better were provided, § ORIGIN OF THE MOVEMENT. No child growing up in that district today ean complain that something better has not been provided, for the two rooms into which Miss Addams and Miss Starr first {nvited & few women of the neighborhood to take t with them, much to the surprise of that seldom lovited few, have grown to Hull House, which alms to be and 1s a social center about which these people may group their various organizations and enterprises. | Hull House does not make the common of trying to reach people only | the casual visitor? leges and public schools of Chicago give their services free. The University exten- slon of the University of Chicago gives a course of lectures each year and the Soclal Sclence club provides the best speakers for occasional lectures. If half a dozen people desire to study some certain branch they form a class and a teacher is provided. Not for charity, though, each member pays 50 cents a term. This pays for gas and heat and removes the feeling of getting something for nothing. Every department in the house has grown from a discovery made through natural and reciprocal social relations. SANITARY CONDITIO! Miss Addams has given special attention to | the sanitary conditions of the ward and has rallied to her assistance every mother in it. These women have made life such a burden to the garbage collectors that even the extra supply of d's in Miss Addams’ name has not been found sufficient to relieve their over- charged feeling: Mayor Swift has re- cently added to their woe bp appointing Miss Addams garbage inspector for the Nineteenth ward. This gives to an already busy woman much additional labor, but it means a great deal in the way of cleanliness and health to a people who are greatly in need of both In art, literature and music Hull House maintains that the best is the fittest and it ofters no other. The lectures and con- certs are exactly such as are given before audiences of scholars and musiclans. And now how does Hull House appear to In a reglon where space is 80 valuable that a foot or two is often the source of much costly litigation, and where ev person and thing seems to be cramped and squeezed In just as much as possible you suddenly come upon a vacant lot, bounded on two sides by a woven wire fence at least ten foet high. This is the playground made this spring by tearing down two very low tenements. It is only treeless as yet, but there are tents and awnings and hammocks and sand piles and buckets and spades and balls and tennis and croquet, and men and women who are children again for the sake of the children. Watching them you decide that each of the nineteen nationalities hy contributed its share, but just let me show you how much Chicago is ln the crowd. On the opening day the gates were kept closed until a certaln hour, but the children who were accustomed to riding under the rivers and over the roofs were not to be delayed by a triffie such as a ten-foot wire fence.

It was attentive, however, and Prof. Moulton was learned and witty, as he always is.

No matter how utilitarian the idea, the artistic is never lost sight of at Hull House. The kitchen Is a copy of an old English ion, with low, dark rafters, diamond win- dows, and a large fire pla Besides serving luncheon, the foods cooked here are deliv- ered hot by the quart or pound for home consumption. In the day nursery are cleanliness and comfort, and charts and pictures of famous Madonnas. In the parlors of the Jane club, | the home of fitty young women, who occupy | fine flats under the chaperonage of Hull House, I found a bowl of roses, an open piano with Mendelssohn's “Spring Song” on the rack, a number of really fine pictures, some of them presented by the artists who painted them, and what seemed very natural consid- ering the time and surroundings, a young man and woman holding a very confidential couversation about the weather, no doubt. The club is composed of working girls, and | their expenses amount to $3 a week per capita. No religious services are held at Hul House. It is strictly non-sectarian. On Sun- day afternoons concerts are given, but they are not whatare called sacred concerts. Prof. | Tomlins, who directed the World's fair chor- | uses, has undertaken to train a chorus of 500 working people at Hull Hou He bas also offered prizes for the songs that will best express, both in muslc and words, the om: lite and aspirations of the working ople. ‘The residents pay thelr own expenses and ive their services.

Philadelphia fs confronted with a_ condition similar to that complained of in New York. | School accommodations are {nadequate, It fs | estimated that 20,000 children are shut out | of the schools at the present time, because the school authorities are unable to supply the necessary buildings. Notwithstanding this fact the legislature has passed a compul sory education law, which imposes severe penalties on parents who fall to send their children to gchool. Under the new law every child in the com- monwealth between 8 and 13 years of age must attend for at least sixteen weeks in each year a school in which the common English branches are taught. The law is sweeping In its requirements, excepting only such children as are certified by parents or guardians to be mentally or physically in- capacitated, or who live two miles or more from a public school, or who are being in- structed in other schools or by private teach- ers in the common English branches which are taught in the public schools. The law is highly penal fn its provisions. A fine of $2 Is imposed on parents or guardians in every case for the first offense sgaiost the law, and for each succeedin offense the fine is $6.

By means of an old deed exchanged be- tween two of the earliest merchants of Bos- ton, C. E. Ridler locates the site of what many scholars belleve to be the first recorded free general taxa on the south side of Cornhill, near Washington street. The triangular block bounded by Court street, Washington and Cornhill was, says the Bos- ton Journal, originally devoted to’ the follow- ing public beneficent purposes: A town corn bin on Cornhill, a prison or house of correction, established in 1632; the school, the first meeting house, occupying the commanding position at the corner of Dock Square and Cornbill, and a tavern where the Ames building now ls. Opposite on Washington street was placed the par- sonage, the shop of Cogan, first merchan the first market place, where the old state house stands, and the armo ar by were the great dock, the powder magazine, the spring on the hill above, the aqueduct, the great cistern and other safeguards against fire, town bell, the town clock, the great Indian cemetery, only a few steps away fr the earliest burial place of the whites; town house, the legislature, the criminal clvil courts and the marshal The meeting house having been planted in 1632, Cornhill became one of the very earlicst streets of Boston. Starting from the site of the meeting house in Washington street, the first great thoroughfare into the interior. His conclusion Is strengthened by the fact that there are in the nelghborhood pictur- esque old alleyways, notoriously —crook streets, and” ten so-called public squares. Just above are the three hills, Pemberton, Mount Vernon and Beacon, Here also {s Tremont Row, where Governor Vane, Governor Bellingham, error Endicott, the second schoolmaster of Boston; Rev. John Cotton, teacher of the church: his son, Seaborn, and John Hull, the mint master. Here Tremont street begins, another great, but newer thoroughfare. The newer Shawmut, on a hill overlooking the fon—namel nd lived Go valley and the nelghboring ocean, was begun | by the whites on the spot where the red men left off. The school was starteéd voluntarily in town meeting, April 23, 1635, 2060 years ago. COMMENCEMENT Invitations to college commencements are | trooping in.
