I was, therefore, interested in learning that Pennsylvania state aid was denied certain charitable institutions en the ground that they were strictly and exclusively sectarian bodies.

Among the institutions that I have heard mentioned as black-listed at Harrisburg, was the Saint Joseph's Foundling Home. I was moved by a Ceep curiosity, discovered to what extent this institution was obnoxiously sectarian to the state authorities, and so, accordingly, I visited there last Sunday evening. It was about five thirty o'clock when I called and introduced myself to the Sister Superior in charge, candidly disavowing in myself all denominational allegiance and sectarian prejudice. The Sister Superior, who is one of the gentlest ever been my lot to meet, chowed me through the inst Its two hundred, little innocents, who, through no fault of theirs, have made their unconventional entries upon the stage of life.

"Crime and Punishment" was the subject of the lecture given by Frank Tannenbaum at the second program at the Chautauqua this evening. His lecture was given in words restrained that suggested a quiet understanding of the facts, which made his address very impressive. By enumerating examples of quite a number of prison cruelties and happenings, the lecture was easily understood. He impressed upon the mind of those present the startling and amazing fact that the days of the Spanish Inquisition are not over; that here in America some of its methods have been perpetuated by men who subscribe at least theoretically to some gospel of freedom--political, personal or otherwise. Mr.

Tannenbaum discussed the necessity of social relations in the prison group. He brought out the point that "men resist isolalation as men resist death." He sees isolation as something that "leads to a gradual disintegration of self, a distortion of the mind and to a deterioration of all that one holds valuable in personality."
