the Village church Sunday morning. 
The “Snow Party,” which was 
given at the Women’s clubhouse last 
Friday evening, was the first of the 
usual winter series of which the 
Ladies’ Aid society has charge: The 
supper was delicious with its home 
cooking and expeditious serving, and 
the dance which followed was ap- 
parently very successful. 
orchestra of Manchester furnished 
the music. Miss Ethel May and her 
committee are to be congratulated up- 
on the clever management of the 
party. The next affair of which the 
society has charge will come next 
month. 
The Forum speaker Sunday even- 
ing will be Father Fan S. Noli, who 
has been delivering lectures of the 
greatest interest on the Albanian 
question. Among his best known 
addresses are “Albania and the War,” 
“Commercialism vs. Albanian Nation- 
ality,” “America’s Duty to Albania,” 
and “The Position of Women in Al- 
bania.” He is a man of liberal edu- 
cation and broad interests. He was 
born January 5, 1880, in the Albanian 
colony at Adrianople. In 1900 he was 
ordained a priest of the Orthodox 
church by the Archbishop Platon of 
New York. In 1912, he was grad- 
uated from Harvard. Father Noli 
has been prominent in religious work 
in his mother country, especially so 
in his endeavors to have a national 
church established and he has written 
much that is excellent. He has been 
interested in the Albanian movements 
in this country and was sent as a- 
delegate to London in 1912 by the Al- 
banians here. The pivotal impor- 
tance of Albania has been so greatly 
increased in the last few years that 
Father Noli’s words are bound to be 
not only timely, but full of interest 
to any American audience.

PRISON REFORM 
SuByJEcr OF INTERESTING LECTURE IN 
Macnoiia Forum. 
EARLY one-half million prisoners 
are discharged from the three thou- 
sand penal institutions in the United 
States every year, and more than one- 
half of the number commit other 
crimes and are recommitted to pris- 
son,” declared Donald Lowrie, form- 
er secretary to Thomas Mott Osborne, 
warden of Sing Sing Prison, at the 
Congregational church in Magnolia 
last Sunday evening. 
The speaker, who has had wide ex- 
perience and is familiar with prison 
conditions throughout this country, 
pointed out that should such whole- 
sale relapse occur with persons dis- 
charged from hospitals and insane 
asylums society would rise en masse 
and demand new management and 
better administration for such insti- 
tutions. 
“The purpose of imprisonment 
should be protective, not punitive or 
revengeful,” said Mr. Lowrie, “and 
the time is at hand for changing the 
methods in dealing’ with prisoners. 
No law-breaker should be sentenced 
to prison for a definite term, any 
more than a person suffering with 
mumps or a broken finger should he

committed to a hospital for six 
months or six years.’ The commit- 
ment in either case should be to effect 
a cure, and the sufferer should be ~ 
kept under treatment until cured. Of — 
course this treatment should be 
humane and scientific, not in the — 
hands of a politician, but in the hands 
of a trained and efficient master. 
“At Sing Sing, under Warden Os- — 
borne, the first steps in the new pen- 
ology have been taken. Instead of 
treating prisoners like brutes—which 
makes them brutal—Mr. Osborne be- 
lieves, with Gladstone, that ‘it is lib- — 
erty alone that fits men for liberty.’ — 
Instead of the old repressive system, 
whereunder the prisoner had no 
choice, and no opportunity to develop 
such a talent as he might possess, the — 
prisoner of the future will be tested, 
and trained, by being given just as 
much freedom as he can stand, con- — 
sistent with his safe detention. It is 
better that the evil propensities in — 
prisoners should become manifest — 
while they are in prison, rather than — 
that they should be suppressed only 
to break forth in a torrent of im- = 
morality after release. The place to — 
study moral turpitude, the place to 
give it full opportunity to develop, so 
that it can be studied and treated, is
