FOURTH EDITION, REVISED AND ENLARGED PRINTED IN THE YEAR NINETEEN HUNDRED AT NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK. 'iJ Editor^s Note It was the intention of the compiler to make some distinction, through the inclusion or exclusion of settlements, by which a definition of a settlement could be reached. As returns to a circular of questions sent to each settlement came in, and v/ere studied, and as prominent settlement workers were consulted in regard to certain requisites of a true settlement, and the manner in which various individual settlements met these requirements, it became apparent that lines of sharp division could not be drawn. There are settlements with no residents that have more truly the settlement spirit than many another with a number of resident workers. There are settlements with a definite propaganda which touch the life about them more closely than others that claim to hold themselves open to every desire of the neighborhood, regardless of creed, race or sex. Moreover, to judge fairly one must know work at first hand, and that of course is an impossibility in any such compilation. Even then, any decision must often depend upon personal feeling or predilection. Therefore it has been deemed wise to include in this fourth edition everything that calls itself a settlement. But that each reader may be able to draw his own conclusions, the editor has tried to show definitely and clearly under each settlement the character of its activities and the scope of its work, arranged from questions answered by the head resident of the settlement in question, as well as from printed reports. The number of resident and non-resident workers are given and the alBliations and support so far as feasible. It becomes more and more evident, however, that the name " settlement " as well as the idea on which the movement is founded have been and are increasingly abused. The name has lost its significance. It is as anomalous as the term " college " in some states. Unfortunately, it has become the fashion for missions^ schools, parish houses, institutions, and others to label themselves settlements. The name has acquired a certain prestige. Either its meaning will grow more and more indefinite or people will be willing to return to the old-fashioned terms. Mission is an honorable word and has an honorable inheritance. It is to be hoped that some that have been anxious to call themselves settlements will be willing to adhere to old terms. In spite of the looseness in the use of name and idea, which is perhaps more or less inevitable, so much of what is good has permeated the life and activities of many institutions that it is evident that the indirect influence of settlements is a factor not to be ignored. That it is well nigh an impossibility to furnish an accurate or complete bibliography will be easily understood. The material is in pamphlets and circulars which do not find a place in public collections, and in periodicals which are too numerous and too incompletely catalogued to be trustworthy. It has not been possible to authenticate every reference obtained. Articles of the local daily press have been omitted as too inaccessible to be of value, except in the case of a few new settlements about which nothing else has been written. As many articles have appeared which do not represent a settlement correctly from the point of view of the residents, each settlement has been asked to indicate the articles which have its sanction. This does not mean that other references under each settlement are not approved by it. The editor has not been able to make use of some clippings sent because there has been no clue to paper or magazine in which the article was published, and no date. Aside from general information, the aim of this bibliography has been to be of special service to those new to settlement work or ideas. With this in view, there have been added writings which have grown out of the experi- ence of residence, but which are not perhaps strictly about settlement work. These may be found under Hull House, South End House, Lincoln House, etc. The older settlements are so often asked for lists of books suitable for those desiring to be settlement workers that the editor has added such an one compiled from lists furnished by some fifty head residents of experience. They are given in the order- of the number of times they have been mentioned. The editor wishes to extend hearty thanks to Miss Myrta Jones, who kindly superintended the printing of this bibliography, and to Miss Walker and Mr. Gavit, who permitted, through the secretary of the association, the use of the introductions (in a condensed form) which they furnished to the previous edition. Corrections and additions will be gratefully received. Mrs. Frank Hugh Montgomery, 5548 Woodlawn Avenue, Chicago, 111. Copies of this bibliography may be obtained by sending ten cents each to the Secretary. COLLEGE SETTLEMENTS ASSOCIATION STANDING COMMITTEE: President : ViDA D. Scudder 250 Newbury St., Boston, Mass.

Scribner) The idea of a College Settlement was first discussed by Smith College students in 1887, and in the following year a plan was formulated and an appeal for money sent out. In October, 1889, the New York College Settlement was opened in Rivington Street, but it was not till May that there was any real organization among those interested in the maintenance of the settlement. The College Settlements Association was formed partly with the idea of organizing and supporting settlements, and further, as the report of the Electoral Board says, " to bring all college women within the scope of a com- mon purpose and a common work. . . . To extend the educating power of the settlement idea is the object of the College Settlements Association. The Association would unite all college women, and all who count themselves our friends, in the trend of a great modern movement ; would touch them with a common sympathy and inspire them with a common ideal." The Association is represented by an Electoral Board, which apportions the funds, transacts the business and controls its general policy. The Settlements included in the Association are the New York College Settlement, the Philadelphia College Settlement, and the Boston College Settlement, otherwise known as Dennison House. They are called College Settlements because they are chiefly controlled and supported by college women, although generous support is received from other sources, and resi- dence[is in no way restricted to college women. INTRODUCTION TO THE FOURTH EDITION. It is hardly possible to say with whom the modern settlement idea of educated people taking up their abode among the poorer or working classes originated, but it was in England that the movement took what may be regard- ed as its formal rise. Under the inspiration of the lofty social teachings of such men as Kingsley, Frederick Denison Maurice, Ruskin, and Thomas Hill Green, young students were fired for social service and sacrifice, and it was a logical result of this teaching and preaching that in 1867 Edward Denison, an Oxford student of wealth and position, offered himself to the Rev. John Richard Green, then vicar of St. Philips in Stepney, for residence, work and visitation in that parish. He lived there but a short time — his whole period of social service in a public way covered but two years and terminated in his un- timely death — but at that time he conceived and discussed with his friends the project of such institutions among the poor as are now known by the name of social settlements. In 1875, to Rev. Samuel A. Barnett, then vicar of St. Jude's in Whitechapel, came Arnold Toynbee, a young tutor at Oxford, inspired with the same desire to share the life of the less favored classes. He, too, was able to spend but a short time in actual residence, and his life of active service was sadly brief, burned out at white heat ; but in his short residence he became a brilliant leader of thought among the workingmen, and it was a fitting thing that ten years later the first social settlement, dedicated in Whitechapel to social unification by Canon Barnett, with whom the young tutor had served as Denison did with Green, should be named in his honor and as a memorial to his service, " Toynbee Hall." Once started the movement was very rapid in development, and in three years had spread to the United States. The first true settlement in America was the College Settlement in Rivington Street, New York, although Hull House, Chicago, was opened in the same month. Everywhere the new method was recognized as of great promise for the future. It fitted into the new ideas and the new social mechanism, found its way into state and church and asso- ciative life, and proved its vitality by its ready adaptation to all sorts and conditions of men and communities. Nearly every denomination of Protestant Christianity now has its representative settlement, and there are those manned by representatives of the Roman Catholic Church, the Jewish faith and by non- religious folk as well. Through stages of experiment, opposition and misunderstanding the movement has come to be dangerously popular. The method is being apotheo- sized at the expense of the simple spirit, and many of the so-called settlements are very far from the highest ideal. Yet to the settlement, modern social work owes a very large share of impulse and method, and the list of settlements which follows will serve to show how largely its suggestions have been accepted by churches and missions, and how it has spread with all its vital vigor to numerous large social centres on both sides of the Atlantic, and even to Japan.

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA (Settlements marked with a * (asterisk) have not replied to communications of editor.) ALABAMA CALHOUN Calhoun School and Settlement. Calhoun, Lowndes Co., Alabama. Incorporated, 1892, by Mabel W. Dillingham and Charlotte R. Thorn. Principals, Rev. Pitt Dillingham and Miss Charlotte R. Thorn. Number of residents, i8 seven months of the year, 6 the year round. Distinctive work : " Building or stimulating the growth of a farm village through a school and neighborhood life." " Coming back to Lowndes County is a crucial point. Calhoun stands or falls according to this text ; its special business is furnishing leaders for its own county in Alabama. Its work, in short, is the work of a settlement. It does not seek to draw individuals from a large territory and then scatter them again over the various States of the South. It aims at the cabins near by. As little as possible of separate institutional life, as much as possible of neighborhood life with its own town and county, is its idea. " Keep in touch with the homes and farms, the schools and churches, with all the life round about; change the spirit, raise the standards of the neighbor- hood life; these must be — object lessons in home life, farming, teaching and religious life — social structure to discharge social functions. But the minimum of machinery and the maximum of neighborly life is the aim. " Enough has been said to indicate the task, the double nature, building the institutional object-lesson, bringing it to bear upon the surrounding life, help- ing those inside and outside the settlement." — Frotn Fou7-th Animal Report.

Castelar and Ord Streets. All, with present address in same locality.) Founded, February, 1894, by the Los Angeles Branch of the Association of Collegiate Alumnae, now under the Los Angeles Settlement Association. Head resident, Number of residents, 3 women. Number of non-resident workers, 20. The settlement activities include a district nurse, library, kindergarten, industrial work, clubs, baths. " Casa de Castelar is located in a formerly favored but now decayed part of Los Angeles, in the midst of a cosmopolitan but largely Spanish-American population. " During the past five years, Casa de Castelar has made remarkable progress and has become a permanent educational centre in the neighborhood. From a small beginning in one room, near Yale Street, the social and club work ha? increased until the present large sixteen-room house does not meet the need." — Fifth Annual Report.

A. of the University of California and an advisory board composed of citizens of East Berkeley and professors in the State University. Head resident. Ruby A. Widd. (Former head resident, Wm. L. Collier.) Number of residents, 2 women. Number of non-resident workers, 30. The settlement work is composed of a civics club, scroll sawing, vocal music, bookkeeping, hammock weaving, sewing, cooking, millinery, and a mother's club. " The settlement work in West Berkeley is carried on entirely by students of the University of California. Recently, through the generosity of private persons, we have moved to a larger house, where we have two resident students. Materials have been provided for extending our work, and the coming year promises to be very prosperous. The club work is not carried out along relig- ious lines. We have a small library and a reading-room." — Head Resident. Authorized articles, »_ Reports. SAN FRANCISCO South Park Settlement. 84 South Park, San Francisco, Cal. Also Boys' Club, 740 Bryant Street, San Francisco. (Former address, 15 South Park.) Opened, January, 1895, by San Francisco Settlements Association. Head resident. Dr. Dorothea Moore. (Former head resident, Mrs. Maria C. Schermerhorn.) Number of residents, 7. Number of non-resident workers, 100. The departments of work are in many cases unique. They include printing, chair-caning, charcoal drawing, leather sewing, mechanical drawing, carpentry, basket work, shopping bags, plain and fancy sewing, rope mat-making, ham- mock making, choral singing, cooking, shorthand, classes in mandolin and guitar, literature, dressmaking, clay modeling, flower slipping and planting, painting, history, dancing, drawing, a military drill with drum and bugle corps, a gymnasium and library. "The distinctive work in i8g8 was that of boys' and girls' clubs. Later, more social and municipal, but largely educational. " To work with conditions as found, to turn present energy in the direction of a fuller social responsibility, and to place emphasis upon the educational and social side as its permanent side — this has been the aim of the past year — an aim directed by conviction as well as condition. " The detail of the year, therefore, divides itself naturally into two lines — that which comes from the 'settling' — the feeling with and for our chosen residence — and that more enlarged civic action which includes the collabora- tion with the agencies of the churches, schools, libraries, and the local govern- ment." — Fifth A)inual Report, April, 1899.

" The settlement has just moved into a new building of its own, the gift of Mr. S. T. Alexander. It has a beautiful gymnasium, with showers, lockers, bath ; a kindergarten room built especially for this purpose, with many windows and means for proper ventilation ; in addition, rooms equipped for debating society, cooking class, woman's club, library, art room, manual train- ing. We are not in a slum district, as such a locality is not to be found in this city. Our neighbors are hard-working people, mostly Italian and Irish. The Italians are bootblacks, scavengers, vegetable and fruit dealers ; the Irish and other nationalities are carpenters, painters, railroad men, masons, plasterers, a few clerks in grocery and dry goods stores, while many of the women work in the canneries." — Head Resident.

Graham Taylor and Rev. Herman F. Hegner. Independent and undenominational, but in cordial affiliation with Chicago Theological (Congregational) Seminary. Rev. Graham Taylor, D.D., resident warden. Number of residents : men, 7 ; women, 15 ; total, 22 ; exclusive of children. Number of non-resident workers, about 50. Aside from the local activities, the distinctive work may be generalized in the phrase, "To add the spiritual function to the social environment; the social function to the religious movement." The various sub-committees are on Interior Life ; Finance ; Educational ; Social; Clubs, Junior: Boys'; Girls'; Young Women's; Young Men's; Women's ; Men's : Kindergarten and Training School ; Sunday Occasions ; Literature ; Library and Art ; Publication and Propaganda ; Local Charity ; Summer Work. " Five years of faith and free-will have these been, of struggle and patience and loyal fellowship, in the uncompelled attempt to live a normal life of human service in that part of the great city where we seem to be most needed, rather than where the neighborhood seems to offer the most of social prestige or of privilege. "Several functions we have come to feel that the settlement performs more or less thoroughly, in addition to its more subjective aspect as a place and an occasion for the investment of personal and family home-life in the service of the many and for the recognition of indebtedness on the part of each to all for culture so-called, and educational privileges. Locally, it affords to individuals this, a more or less extensive and varied provision of classes, lectures, clubs, etc., opportunities to supply defects in the more formal education which early necessity of labor in self and home support cuts off, in the average working person's case, at the elements. Then, as a kind of neighborhood club house, it gives opportunity and provocation for acquaintance, sadly needed in districts like ours, where deadening isolation from wholesome contact with fellow-humans is hardly less common than in farthest rural districts. " In the sphere of civic influence, we feel that the settlement has played a part. " Highly as we may value our opportunities for direct influence in the local neighborhood, as high an estimate, if not higher, must be placed upon the opportunities for reflex influence upon the communities and individuals co-operating in the work, or even only hearing of its point of view and general progress. "The notable fact in our present situation, full of promise for the permanency and effectiveness of our work, appears in the acquisition by the settlement, for a term of ninety-nine years without rental, of the strategically located site of the old Tabernacle (Congregational) church, at Grand Avenue 14 Illinois. and North Morgan Street, upon which an adequate and attractive building is now in process of erection.

During many of the summer vacations a day school was carried on to take the children off the streets. It was under Mrs. Campbell's direction that the social and settlement character was first given to the work. St. Elizabeth's Social Settlement. 317 Orleans Street, Chicago, 111.

Number of residents, 4 men, 3 women ; total, 7. Number of non-resident workers, 48. This work is so closely allied with the general work of the Forward Move- ment in Chicago that it is impossible to distinguish the purely settlement activity. The latter includes physical, industrial, educational, social and spiritual work, and twenty-six sub-departments are actively organized. " Our distinctive work," says Dr. Gray, " is the spiritual development of the people through their felt wants." Authorized statements, — — See circuters-aTKl bulletins of the Forward Movement.

(Former director, W. H. Noyes.) Number of non-resident workers, 30. There are at present no residents, but the spirit of the House is so thor- oughly that of a settlement that it is entitled to rank as such in the minds of some of the best settlement workers fully as much as some that claim more. Its activities embrace a kindergarten, manual training, sewing, knitting and dancing classes, gymnastics, concerts, women's literary and social club, library, reading and dramatics.

Object of Hull House (as stated in its charter) : "To provide a centre for a higher civic and social life ; to institute and maintain educational and philanthropic enterprises, and to investigate and improve the conditions in the industrial districts of Chicago." " In its name, Hull House simply claims the long-familiar neighborhood title recalling the time, early in the sixties, when it was the home of Mr. Charles J. Hull. One glimpse of its pillared front, set well back from the street line of crowded shops, suggests all the strangely touching history through which the old house passed, until finally it became a tenement house and junk shop, and with its neighborhood took on an air of discouragement and decay and sordidness," — Alice Miller, in Charities Review, February, 1892. " Hull House is neither a University Settlement nor a College Settlement ; it calls itself a Social Settlement, and attempts to make social intercourse 16 Illinois. express the growing sense of the economic unity of society. It is an attempt to add the social function to democracy." — Jane Addams, in Forum, November, 1892.

The population is almost entirely foreign, made up of about 40,000 Poles, 15,000 Germans and 12,000 Scandinavians, with a sprink- ling of other nationalities. There is a total population of about 70,000 people in the ward, which has an area of less than one square mile, giving the Six- teenth Ward the densest population in the city. * * * The growth of the settlement activities necessitates a suitable building as a permanent home. * * * Lots for the purpose have been selected; enough money is pledged to pay for them, and work toward securing the full amount needed for building and lots, about $40,000, will be continued during the present season." — Circu- lar No. 8, September, 1899.

We are citizens of these United States, and we believe our flag stands for self-sacrifice for the good of all the people. We want, therefore, to be good citizens of our great city, and will show our love for her by our works. "Chicago does not ask us to die for her welfare ; she asks us to live for her, and so to live and so to act that her government may be pure, her officers honest, and every corner of her territory a place fit to grow the best men and women, who shall rule over her." The account of the settlement found in the President's Report of the University of Chicago, July, 1899, pp. 208-216, is the authorized report.

We have a reading-room, games and occasional social gatherings. This work is among colored people (negroes) entirely, and is being conducted by colored people. The committee in charge is composed entirely of colored persons, and the workers are all colored. The aim will be to develop colored residents also. To this end the Charity Organization will assist by giving a suitable person some special training. At present we have arranged to have twelve ladies take the work for two weeks each.

" In April, Mr. A. A. Hill, the founder, was called to a similar position in New York. At first it seemed inevitable that this loss would mean the closing of Neighborhood House.

These consist of intimate personal relations of friend to friend, and cannot be published in any report. The settlement has developed almost unconsciously as many departments of activity as a large institution ; a department of industrial and domestic art, a department of college extension, a department of children's clubs, etc. Created, they must be well organized and directed, that the people profiting by them may receive the best which modern educational science on all these different lines can offer." — Tenth Anmial Report of C.S.A. The settlement has taken much interest in the labor movement, and has had opportunity to co-operate helpfully in many ways. Several residents have been delegates to the Central Labor Union, and matters of importance to the working people have been helpfully discussed at the economic meetings in the settlement, at which representatives of various classes have met on a neutral ground and discussed these questions from many points of view. Educational classes, etc., have been carried on in the usual ways with good success. — See Annual Reports of the College Settlements Association, containing reports of head workers.

"The work of the House has its best meaning therefore in being social, in the strict sense of the word, rather than either charitable or educational." — Sixth Yearly Report, January, 1898. " The policy of the settlement has been to scatter its points of attack. There are now three of these : the first the residence at No. 6 Rollins Street, where there is a lending library, a circulating collection of pictures, and a savings bank, besides large and beautiful rooms for social gatherings, offices for the head of the House and the Secretary, a room equipped with a socio- logical library, maps, etc., for use in connection with the work of investiga- tion, and living quarters for six residents ; the second, a remodeled tenement house at 611 Harrison Avenue, where there is a free reading-room for men, a kindergarten room which is also used for a club room, and a workshop for manual training ; and the third, Marenholz House, at No. 2 James Street, Franklin Square, a residence for kindergartners who assume charge of the work among the younger children." — Seventh Yearly Report, February, iSgg. " Four new residents have been added to the permanent settlement staff. Two of these are women, who live in the Women's Residence at 43 East Canton Street. " The Club Building, at 611 Harrison Avenue, is now used practically to its full capacity. Partly on this account, partly from a desire to penetrate more deeply into the recesses of the local life, a number of small centres have been scattered throughout the neighborhood— five home libraries, two stamp savings stations, a boys' club and two small playgrounds."— ^z>/;//; Annual Report, 1900.

Founded in January, 1S91, by Rev. Robert E. Ely, Professor Francis G. Peabody, of Har- vard University, and a small group of Harvard students and workingmen, with" a view of joining hands in mutual helpfulness and co-operation. Mr. Ely is head worker. 26 Michigan — Minnesota. " The promotion of brotherliness, especially between Harvard students and professors and the workingmen of Cambridge and elsewhere," is and has been from the beginning the aim of the Prospect Union. It combines features of social settlement and university extension work, and the four men residents upon the field clearly entitle it to status as a settlement. It differs from most settlements in being far more a men's and far less a children's work. Classes in elementary and advanced branches, lectures, concerts, entertainments, art exhibitions, smoke-talks, all combine to the main end of the encouragement and cultivation of natural, self-respecting, personal contact between men of different classes, nationalities, temperaments and conditions in life. The building owned and occupied by the Union is the former city hall of Cambridge. The most conspicuous outgrowth of the Union's work is the American Co-operative Union, devoted to the encouragement of co-operation upon the Rochdale plan. A co-operative printing and a distributive society centre at the Union, and there also is published the American Co-operative News, the organ of the Co-operative Union.

Founded as a Protestant Episcopal mission about 1886, developed upon more social lines after 1891. Now to be classed as practically a settlement. Rev. Gustavus Tuckerman in charge. "An exact description of our work is hardly possible," wrote Mr. Tuckerman to the editor of the Bibliography, October 13, 1897, "owing to the transition through which this work is passing. Our efforts are directed toward adding to the original characteristics of the work as many as possible of the features pertaining to a social settlement, including much that up to the present time has been out of the question. Our distinctive work may be said to be the Christianizing of the people among whom the work is placed. In a word, my conception of the work is that of a social settlement on distinctively Christian lines, an attempt to realize the prayer, 'Thy Kingdom come,' toward the attainment of which realization the bath, kitchen, gymnasium, etc., are as necessary and as integral factors as the services of the Church." A new and thoroughly equipped building will supplant the three old shops that have been used for the work. An illustrated article will shortly appear in The Churchman, New York. 28 Nebraska — New Jersey NEBRASKA LINCOLN Graham Taylor House. 945 North 8th Street, Lincoln, Neb.

Number of non-resident workers, 15. " Lincoln seems perhaps scarcely large enough for a real settlement, being a city of only 55,000. We are settled iii a community of some 600 Germans from Russia. This is purely a student undertaking. Students help with their presence at all our gatherings, and offer ttieir services for instruction. Our more hopeful work is the industrial." — Head Worker.

There is a physical culture class, a kindergarten, boys' and young men's clubs, cooking classes, library, penny provident savings bank, mothers' meet- ing, dancing and bowling. " Orange Valley includes the manufacturing district of the Oranges. In it are about ten large hat and box factories, around which are gathered a dense population of operatives. The crowded condition of the homes and the small incomes of the workers make it impossible for these people to provide for themselves the recreative and social surroundings that are both pleasant and profitable. At present, the saloon has alone taken advantage of the situation, and as a result there is much intemperance and consequent poverty of home comforts. To ameliorate such conditions the settlement v/as established. Its work is planned on the general line of college settlements ; it is personal, not institutional ; religious, but not denominational. Differing from most other settlements, it is unique in being located in a rural community, yet having the perplexing problems of city settlements." — Head Worker.

Head worker, Cornelia F. Bradford. Number of residents, 3 men, 4 women ; total, 7. Number of non-resident workers, 70. "The distinctive work of this settlement is co-operation with State and municipal authorities. It has manual training, a kindergarten, classes in art, cooking, dressmaking, millinery, a boys' association, and social, education and musical departments. The Organized Aid Society of Jersey City, the Jersey State Legal Society and the State Consumers' League all hold their meetings here, and some of the residents are represented on every one of these boards. Indeed, whatever is going on in the city to uplift humanity, whether it be carried on by the Salvation Army, by the Street Cleaning New Jersey — New York. 29 Department, or by any other one of the municipal departments, Whittier House is quite sure to be called upon or to be represented in some way. A Christian Endeavor Society of a neighboring church has asked to hold a meeting here for the present until some other rooms can be secured. We are regardless of creeds and entirely undenominational." " Because no American has done more than Whittier to inspire Americans with a desire to serve their fellow men, the name, which we think all will recognize as most happy, has been selected. The motto of the House is the poet's noble words : ' He serves Thee best who loveth most His brothers and Thy own.' — Report. " Whittier's House is a social settlement, situated in the midst of a densely populated district. It aims to help all in need by improving their circum- stances, by inspiring them with new motives and higher ideals, and by making them better fitted by the responsibilities and privileges of life. It is Christian, but not denominational, and will co-operate with all who are seeking to ameli- orate the human condition and improve the social order." Authorized articles, -<«-«.

"Our settlement is peculiar," says Miss Ovington, " in its location in a part of a great model tenement, so that we are under the same roof with some sixty families. These represent every grade of working people, from those who have pianos and call their fiats ' apartments,' to the extremely poor who live in two rooms (there are no one-room flats) and are daily sufferers for want of the necessaries of life."

Our Ideals : The principles on which our work is based may be stated as follows: 1. The Field. The ward or parish ; the city ; the nation; the world. To cultivate an intelligent interest in all of these, founded on an accurate knowl- edge. While cultivating a broad sympathy, world-wide in extent, to make the ward or parish the subject of immediate and thorough investigation, not only on its religious side, but in all its aspects, industrial and social as well. 2. Co-operation. To cultivate the spirit of brotherly co-operation with all " men of good-will," of every creed, nationality and political affiliation, in temperance, municipal reform, and every other good work, along such lines as are practical without compromise of any principle on either part. To do all work in conjunction with others wherever possible, and hence to foster all union societies. 3. The Training and Maintenance of Workers. To gradually gather together a large force of volunteer workers, viz. : Lay brothers and deaconesses, willing to give themselves to the service of others, without compensation further than the assurance of food, clothing and shelter, but without permanent vows. The cultivation of the comtnnnal life in this way, and the illustration in our time of its beauty and its power. _ The building up of this ideal through the settlement plan, both rural and civic, and by semi-annual and other conferences. 4. The Union of the Religious and Industrial Forces in the Salvation of Mankind. To this end to heal the breach now existing. Hence we have started the Christian Workingmen's Institute, for lectures, conferences and debates. 32 New York. 5. The Education of the People, and especially the Workers, in Correct Social and Religious Principles. To this end the moral instruction from pulpit and platform, the schools, the kindergartens and tract distribution.

In May, 1899, Mr. Hill undertook to found for them, in a little different neighborhood, a settlement. At present the only work that is done is in a huge tenement, where only a few people live. There is a kindergarten and clubs and classes. Calvary House Settlement. 335 East 22d Street, New York, N. Y. Opened, January, 1898, by the Rev. J.

" At present four of the clergy live in the house, but their time is too fully occupied to do any work there. Of the three resident workers, two give about half their time to work in the parish. The third resident is the kindergarten teacher." Authorized statements, See Calvary Parish Year-Book, published by the Parish in November, annually. Catholic Boys* Club No. 5.

The distinctive work of the settlement cannot better be described than in the words from a former circular : " This is not a work among the poor, but among the most neglected classes, from a religious standpoint, in the city. It is to carry the gospel where the pulpit does not carry it — into the homes of the inde- pendent workingmen. To reach them the home life must be made more real, and we believe that the best way to do it is by directly touching the home, and carefully training the young to know what a home may be." — - Annual report, 1896-97.

Distinctive work : "Intimate acquaintance with the life of the neighbor- hood, and friendly feeling established between all persons connected with the house." — Head Resident. " When the settlement was first opened there were many Germans in the neighborhood, and they continue to come to the house, although they have gradually moved to the north, yielding their place to the Russian ana Polish Jews, who now constitute almost the entire population of this section. The region is practically a foreign town, and a very picturesque one. . . . Those living in this' neighborhood can enter into the life of the disfict and work for its good in a thousand different ways. The kindergarten takes in fifty mites who are crowded out of the public schools and trains their clumsy little fingers and slow-working minds. . . . The settlement and its overflow, a small house across the street, might well be sty ed he Club House of the neighbor- hood. There are three or four clubs meeting each afternoon and evening, and they represent wonderfully diversified interests. The systematic sewing 34 New York. classes in two or three years train the girls thoroughly in all forms of sewing. There are classes in grammar, Shakespeare, reading, and city history study, and a room fully equipped for cooking enables us to have several thoroughly organized classes in that art. For those that want less practical occupation there are debating and literary societies, drawing, music and gymnasium classes, relieved by occasional dances and entertainments to which friends are invited. Three times in the week the library is open for the taking out of books, and the parlors are used for reading and games. . . . The little children crowd in every evening for a time to deposit their savings in the penny provident bank, and though the money is drawn out again soon, it is usually to buy clothes or shoes, or even to help the parents in time of special trouble. The back yard is fitted up with swings and sand piles. . . . There is distinct musical talent among these children and the music school is flourish- ing. There are over lOo pupils. ... A summer house, built for us some forty miles back in the hill country, enables us to give about 240 children and young people a two-weeks' country visit, for which they pay a very small sum. A wholly different work of the resident is that in which she stands as representative of the district, and works for its advance in municipal and other ways. Her more thorough training and knowledge of other conditions enables her to accomplish things that those who know only the neighborhood life might fail to do, and she often has a wider knowledge than have those about her of available means of assistance. Our residents have taken an active part in all movements of reform, work on all the local committees, and co-operate with the different philanthropic and reform committees and with the labor unions. " The house stands for work with the neighborhood, and derives such success and usefulness as it can claim from the warm welcome and co-operation of the neighbors, without which it could not be a settlement.

" All minor distinctions dwindle before the thought of the spiritual equality in which we live," — C. H. Brent. " A settl'^ment is a natural growth, and not S multiplicity of activities. The most important work we have before us is not the formation of new clubs, but the establishment of cordial personal relations. All settlement work has a twofold nature. A settlement must know both the neighbors and the neighborhood. The former implies a close personal relationship, whether established through clubs or by an interchange of visits, or by any means whatsoever ; the latter means the intelligent understanding of all the conditions under which the neighbors live. A settlement must neglect no opportunity to work for the industrial, social and civic betterment of the neighborhood. A settlement must find its being in friendship, and its activity in social politics. It is thus at once a personal and a civic function that the settlement must perform." — Seventh Annual Report, January, 1899. —•"• Annual reports, bulletins asd-'wctiiars.

It was indeed but a grain of mustard seed, but it has become a ' tree' in the form of an old-fashioned house, so that the street children come and lodge in the branches thereof." — Mrs. Sarah J.

Opened, February 12, 1B96, as an outreaching of the parish work of Grace Episcopal Church, by Rev, W. R. Huntington, D.D., rector. Rev. George H. Bottome is vicar. The presence of fifteen active residents, eight men and seven women, all engaged in the most earnest social and humanitarian work, upon avowedly Christian principles, gives this institution undisputed settlement standing. A newly erected parish building, with all conveniences, containing a beautiful chapel, and quarters for the many activities of the settlement, gives a basis for the work, which Mr. Bottome outlines as (i) worship, (2) religious instruction for the young, (3) missions, (4) industrial education, (5) industrial employment, (6) care of sick and needy, (7) care of little children, (8) visitation of neighbor- hood, (9) visitation of prisons, (lo) promotion of temperance, (11) fresh air work, (12) library and reading room, (13) parish societies. "Our distinctive work may be described as the union of definite parochial organization with unrestricted settlement work." See Year-Book of Grace Parish, New York. Settlement Work of Grace Church, F.

The distinctive line of work is educational, but the religious side is also strongly emphasized, as one of the permanent residents is a deaconess in the Episcopal church. There is, however, no effort to proselyte, and members of the various clubs represent every denomination in the neighborhood. There is also a library and various industrial features. " One of the first rural settlements is this one, established in a mountain region settled by the sturdy descendants of Scotch-Irish and English settlers. It is only within recent years that a railroad has found its way to this region of ignorance and isolation. Three miles from Asheville a simple, attractive log cabin has been built near a district school and a small mission chapel, to both of which the residents give their aid and co-operation." — From report of head worker, SusAN GuiON Chester.

Tuckerman is head resident. Social, educational and industrial v/ork is in progress. The first club organized was a club for the blind. A local conference of charity workers meets occasionally at the settlement. "The settlement is at 300 Broadway, in a closely built block, and in the midst of a dense tenement house population. It avows as its purpose ' to be the club house of the poor, a centre for their social life.' Three of the workers are supported by university scholarships." The Commons, Chicago, May, 1897. For .cireulaps, reports, et«,, address the settlement. Society for Neighborhood Clubs. Founded, October, 1899, by the Jewish Charities Organization of Cincinnati.

The activities of this work are a kindergarten, a boys' gymnasium, circulating library and reading-rooms, clubs for working girls and boys, children's classes in calisthenics and nature study, and children's Bible classes. "This is, strictly speaking, not a settlement. It is, however, working on settlement principles. It originated by federating working girls' and boys' 42 Ohio. clubs existing separately under the direction of a number of young men and women. The clubs occupy seven rooms and a large gymnasium in a tenement house in a large tenement district. Their chief aim is to reach the Russian element in that neighborhood — an element which has not taken advantage of our schools, and which is, therefore, still almost alien." — President of Society. The University Settlement. Liberty and Plum Streets, Cincinnati, Ohio. Founded, October i, 1S99, by tiie University Settlement Association of the University of Cincinnati. Head resident, Wm. B. Duttera. Number of residents, i. Number of non-resident workers, 32. The settlement has a kindergarten, mothers' meeting, sewing school, penny provident bank, free reading-room and circulating library, gymnasium, clubs, sloyd and singing societies. "The cleavage between 'rich and poor' in Cincinnati is accentuated by physical conditions. The well-to-do live in the suburbs on the hilltops, leaving the valley to the tenements and their residents. The settlement is in the centre of the city, among the most crowded districts. Its aim is to bind the hilltops and valley together." — Head Resident. CLEVELAND The Alta Social Settlement.

Our club work is largely along the line of recreation and practical demonstrations, in many forms, of the American home life." — Lettej- of Head Worker. The Goodrich Social Settlement. 368 St. Clair Street, Cleveland, Ohio. Founded, May, 1807, by Mrs. Samuel Mather, under the auspices of a Board of Incor- porators selected by Mrs. Mather. The work is now carried on by fifteen Trustees chosen by the incorporators. Head resident, Starr Cadwallader. Number of residents, 5 men, 6 women ; total, 11. Number of non-resident workers, 60. The most distinctive work is the social clubs. There are, besides classes, a gymnasium, a library, baths, laundry, entertainments and neighborhood gatherings, vacation school and Summer outings, and a considerable amount of unorganized work which varies with the season and the year. " Last summer a physician was at the house each day to prescribe modified milk for sick babies. At the present time a trained nurse is in residence. The settlement, for two years past, has encouraged the growing of plants and flowers in the houses of the neighborhood. This year, through the co-operation of the Board of Education, seeds are to be distributed in most of the schools of the city. Since the opening of the house, the school enumeration for a part of the district in which the house is located has been taken by one of the residents. Last year the investigation into the substitutes for the saloons, for the ethical sub-committee of the Committee of Fifty, was made from the house. The residents of the house have taken an active part in municipal affairs. They are assisting in an effort to secure small parks and playgrounds in the down town districts. The organization of the Consumers' League has just resulted from the continued exertion of one of the residents. Two residents are this year members of the Board of Managers of the Associated Charities and are aiding in a re-organization of that body. Three picture exhibitions and one exhibition of sewing have been given in the house. "To one who has lived in Goodrich House since its opening and seen it becoming more and more a neighborhood centre, the thought comes that, to Ohio — Pennsylvania. 43 many of the older people, here within reach is a little band of people, always ready to aid with kindly suggestion, sympathy and help in case of need, means more than all else. For, after all, to most of us, living in any nighbor- hood, under any circumstances, human sympathy is craved and valued as nothing else." — Head Resident, Authorized articles, Goodrich Social Settlement, Starr Cadwallader.

Distinctive work, educational. "The Hiram House was organized out of a spirit to share a home, with its pictures and books, culture and refinement, with the unprivileged classes ; to work with the neighbors toward developing a higher expression, a finer quality of life ; and to assist in the enforcement of law. Day by day it is bringing the groups of people who misunderstand each other into closer relationship, and is doing much to break down the barriers which separate man from man, is fostering and encouraging the Fatherhood of God and the brotherhood of man. It is immediately interested in the social, municipal, philanthropic and industrial activities of the ward and city. It is doing much to brighten the lives of the children in the kindergarten and nursery, and through its pleasant gatherings is giving elevating recreation to the social life of many. Through its clubs it is interesting young men in political, municipal and social questions. Its class work has encouraged education and influenced some to re-enter the public schools." — Statement by warden in pamphlet.

Distinctive work : " Personal acquaintance and social leadership are perhaps our strongest side. ' Americanization ' is the keynote of much that we attempt, as our people are mostly foreigners." — Head Wo7-ker. The settlement was obliged to move from its old quarters, which were demolished in the improvement of the Starr Garden Park. On September 27, 1899, the household moved to 433 Christian Street, and later were able to obtain the adjoining house. We have moved ; we have set our stakes deeply and permanently in our new field; and now, forgetting the things which are behind, we are asking ourselves questions of the future. What is the next thing ? Nay, we must say rather, what are the next things, for the next thing never comes singly at a set- tlement, especially at a time like this. It is not so important to establish large and far-reaching policies as it is to determine methods by which small and in- tensely practical improvements in plant and organization may be quickly re- alized. In general, what vve have to do is this : First, to put into the best possible condition for use our present quarters ; second, to use them up to the limit of their capacity ; third, to find out the most desirable and economical line of expansion as the pressure of growth makes itself felt. — Head Worker's Letter in the News of the College Settlement of Philadelphia, Vol. I, No. 4, March, 1900. • Annual Reports of the Philadelphia College Settlement, 1893, '94 and '95 (1892 out of print), 'q6, '97, '98, '99, 1900.

"Apart from the special objects and methods of the settlement, one broad impression will, I think, be made upon those who read the chronicle of its doings. It is an honest attempt to make Christian work more civic, and civic work more Christian in sympathy and aims." — Seventh Annual Report of the Bermondsey Settlement, by J. Scott Lidgett, Warden, London, November, 1898. " The settlement exists for the neighborhood, and not for any particular class. It is catholic, and therefore represents a fellowship in and for the higher life, comprehensively understood, in which all may claim a share. And secondly, the settlement aims at balancing the work of leadership and organi- zation with that of personal friendship, as must needs be done when general social progress is in view. We touch, more and more, all the interests and concerns around us — religious, educational, social, and administrative." — Eighth Annual Report of Bermondsey Settlement, by J.

"So far as we succeed at all it is among the people round about us, and all our work is directed in teaching them in their everyday lives. This does not, of course, admit of ready transference to the pages of a report, nor to the methods of statistics. Work here calls for steady and continuous effort. Nothing else pays ; nothing reports worse." — Head Resident. 48 England The work includes religious classes and services, clubs of many kinds for men and boj's, holiday camps, School Children's Guild, social entertainments, Church Lads' Brigade, country holiday fund, the meeting-ground for many societies, committees, etc., and representation on vestry, guardians, and school boards.

Number of residents, 12 men. Number of non-resident workers, "no definite association, but many who co-operate." Activities of the settlement : Working men's club (including subsidiary societies for bicycling, swimming, cricket, football, and table games), a book circle for working men and women, lectures, concerts and entertainments, Sunday morning adult school and newspaper class, Sunday evening religious meeting, educational classes, Saturday picnic parties to the country, etc. Chalfont House was opened in 1893 to meet a twofold object, viz.: to act as a hall of residence for young men in London, either Friends or closely associated with the society ; and to afford opportunity for work of a social and religious character to be carried on by the residents and their friends as circum- stances permitted. There are ten residents' rooms in the house, and since 1894 there have been ten or eleven men regularly in residence. Taking part in the social or religious work of Chalfont House is not a condition of residence, but is optional. As a matter of fact, during the last year fewer of the residents have been able to share in the outside work, owing, in part, to the fact that they have had their own studies in the evenings, which claimed their first attention. — Report of Warden, June, 1900.

The institutional part of the work began with a Pleasant Sunday After- noon started in the neighboring Congregational church, classes in hired school- rooms, and a sick benefit society and poor men's lawyer. The distinctive part of the settlement work is in the strong part it has played in the local politics and administration, Mr. Alden being a member of the town council, and other representatives of the settlement having part in various departments of public enterprise. Notable features of the settlement are the Wave lodging house for men, the lads' club, with its new building, a public hall for the P. S. A. and other public meetings, annual art exhibitions, etc. During the year 1899 the settlement was largely occupied in organizing and developing the work by the aid of the new buildings which came into its possession during the preceding twelve months.

"The Oxford House in Bethnal Green is established," says the latest annual report, "in order that Oxford men may take part in the social and religious work of the Church in East London ; that they may learn something of the life .of the poor; may try to better the condition of the working classes as regards health and recreation, mental culture and spiritual teaching, and may offer an example, so far as in them lies, of a simple and religious life." "One great point of difference between this institution and Toynbee Hall is to be found in their attitude towards religion. The founders of Toynbee Hall cut off every impediment which might accrue from the profession of any particular form of creed. The Oxford House founded itself upon Christianity. But the marked characteristic of Toynbee Hall is that it is an outpost of University Extension ; of Oxford House, that it has given a new tone and impulse to the Working Man's Club." — Sir W. R. Anson, in The Ecoitoinic Review. "The Baths' Committee presented an interesting report upon the working of the Excelsior buildings during the first year of its management by the Oxford House. The winter season had been occupied with two weekly entertainments given by the Oxford House Musical and Dramatic Association, by Sunday lectures, and by the drill of the Church Lads' Brigade. The dwelling house, moreover, had been occupied by resident workers all through the winter. The summer season had opened late, owing to inevitable refractoriness of the old boiler. Mr. Edwards, however, to whom the Council were bound in gratitude, had triumphed eventually over difficulties, and the bathing season began. During the season 38,000 persons bathed, 19,800 being 52 England. Board School children ; the rest chiefly members of various Clubs." — Oxford House Chronicle, December, 1899, Vol. XIII, No. 12.

That which is distinctive is " social and religious work among girls and women." "To provide a centre in Bethnal Green at which ladies can reside for religious, social and educational work among the women and girls of St. Andrew's and the surrounding poor parishes." " The Settlement was named after St. Margaret, Queen of Scotland, an English Princess who carried a more enlightened Christianity, a more refined cultivation, and a more practical philanthropy into a country not wholly ignorant of better things, but cut off by circumstances from social intercourse with those more favored in educational advantages than themselves." " Donations of nearly ^fi.ooo have already been promised toward the acquisition of a site and the erection on it of more suitable buildings." — Report, October, 1899.

E., London, E., England. Founded, 1886, under the auspices of Pembroke College, Cambridge. C F. Andrews, warden. The vpork comprises religious, social, athletic and educational activities, together with temperance work, and throughout there is a strong religious emphasis. In answer to inquiries, the warden says: "The mission is an integral part of the Anglican Church, worked as a separate parish, with daily and weekly services, and the helps of the religious life. The work is entirely subsidiary to this central object. It has been worked all along on these lines, and experience has abundantly convinced us that such lines are firmest and most permanent." The district is mainly one of costermongers and bricklayers. The mission is singularly well supported by personal residential help from College.

Settlement House, 82 Camberwell Road, S. E. Opened, December 13, 1894, by Rev. Francis Herbert Stead, M.. A., with the co-operation of a committee formed for the purpose. Mr. Stead is warden. Number of residents, 6 men, 7 women, 4 children ; total, 17. Number of non-resident workers, 30. The hall stands in a district miserably poor and houses a population of more than 120,000 on less than one square mile. It was built as a Congrega- tional chapel in 1790, and was the place of worship Robert Browning atiended until he had grown to man's estate, and the place where he was baptized. "The promotion of the labor movement in religion" is declared by Mr. Stead to be the distinctive work and purpose of the settlement, and the means by which this end is reached are educational classes, religious services, pleasant Sunday afternoons, poor man's lawyer, open parliament, etc. A circular, issued in the neighborhood, indicates the spirit in which all the work is done : — 54 England. "You know our aim. We wish to make life in Walworth brighter, sweeter, fuller. Will you help us ? Will you help us that we may all become better neighbors and fellow citizens ? Will you help us to draw closer all the links of local life, that we may lift it to a higher level? We stand for the labor move- ment in religion. We stand for the endeavor to obtain for labor not merely more of the good things of life, but most of the best things in life.

Daniel is now head resident. Dealing with boys and young men of the unskilled and casual laborer class is described as the distinctive work of the settlement, among whose departments may be mentioned the " Old Guard " club of young men who have been through the boys' club, and the club for younger boys. A company of the London Battalion of the Boys' Brigade is located at the settlement, and the work is supplemented with cricket, football, debating societies, etc. The Rugby school is back of the work both financially and as supplying workers from among old members. "To do our work thoroughly, we must gain a knowledge of the home life of each boy, discover his individuality, and then, when we are thrown into contact with him in the club, we can more readily sympathize with him, while he, on his side, is more likely to confide in us, and a bond of union springs up, without which success is impossible." — Sixth Annual Report.

Barnett and friends, as a memorial to Arnold Toynbee, and named in his honor under the auspices of the Universities' Association. Warden, Rev. Canon S. A. Barnett. Number of residents, 18-20 men. Number of non-resident workers, 30-40 class-takers and about 200 associates, who co-operate with the residents in various branches of the work. Activities of the settlement are too numerous to mention. They are social, recreative and educational. "The majority of the residents at Toynbee Hall are engaged in professional duties of their own, and visit clubs, take classes. England. 55 etc., in their evenings or other spare time. A few of the residents are able to give their whole time. Care is taken to strengthen existing institutions, of which there are many in East London, rather than to start new ones ; to supply them with workers, rather than to supplant or compete with them. The edu- cational work, though it extends to about 1,000 students, and occupies a large place in reports and in the notice of visitors to the hall, does not absorb so much of the time or care of the actual residents as is sometimes supposed. Toynbee Hall has given it a home and centre, and has, to a great extent, sup- plied the initial impetus which has enabled it to go on of itself. Much of the educational work here described does not touch directly the " working classes," but a class rather better off, whose intellectual needs are in some ways as great, and the provision for them ("secondary education") not yet so well organized. There can be no doubt that the future of London, and the welding of its citizens into one, will be greatly influenced for good by the growth of real knowledge, and of liberal education amongst this class, and by the friend- ships formed in the common pursuit of it. But the educational work is also attracting in increasing numbers the artisan and laboring classes. " Wadham House " and " Balliol House," close to Toynbee Hall, give to men engaged during the day in business, but wishing to avail themselves of the educational opportunities offered by the hall, some of the advantages of college life. The rent of a room (including the use of a " common room ") is 8/- a week. There are about fifty-five students now in residence. Toynbee Hall, in its corporate capacity, is non-political and undenominational. No one, by living there or by helping it, commits himself to any particular set of opinions. But individual residents can and do take their own line both in thought and work. — Extracts from circular of general infortnation issued by Toynbee Hall, March, 1900. "Toynbee Hall — it seems as if it never could be too often repeated — stands for the way of life as distinct from the way of machinery. The world is moved by the power which is applied by character, by the personal influence of individuals, by life, and also by that which is applied by organization, by law, by machinery. " Toynbee Hall exists that individuals may tell on individuals, that the knowledge accumulated in the universities and the experience accumulated in industry may move public opinion through the friendships formed between university men and the inhabitants of industrial neighborhoods. " But such friendships are sure to lead to organizations. When two or three meet together and in the presence of the higher ideal which appears in their midst see the ignorance or the suffering or the sin which is around, they cannot help starting the machinery by which that goodwill may become effective. " The following report will tell what has been done during the past year by such machinery, but it is left for me to remind all readers that it is personal contact from which everything has grown, and that it is a further personal contact which everything has to foster. If it be that critics, counting up the number of students and the activities of the clubs give us praise, our answer is ' It is not by such a standard we would be judged.' And if we ourselves are led to think about our doings and to rival other organizations in making a show, we must correct ourselves by the reflection that we are here, not so much to do things as to know and to be known. "Machinery is necessary, but the machinery which deals with human beings must have a hand to touch their needs and be directed by a mind keen to re-adapt its action. The hand and the mind are in the residents, the asso- ciates and all those who are with us as those who serve." — IVardeti in Fifteenth Annual Report of the Universities' Settlement in East London, June 30, 1899.

"The mission somewhat resembles — on the part of girls — the missions of some of the boys' public schools. It is maintained by a union of the girls' schools, already embracing more than sixty schools throughout England, and hoping in time to be joined by all girls' public, private and high schools. "The district selected for the first mission — near the old Kent Road — covers only six and one-half acres, but contains 6,500 people, or an average of 1000 to each acre. All the people are quite poor, and live three to five families in every house. There are no ' slums,' nor on the other hand is there a single garden or tree." — The Third Report of the United Girls' Schools' Alissions, Michaelmas, 1898-Michaelmas, i8gg.

This work is not known as a settlement, being rather a mission, but it possesses more of the true settlement spirit than many an institution of undoubted settlement status. Of the beginnings of the work, an intimate 58 England — Scotland. friend, writing to the Manchester Guardian at the time of Mr. Crossley's death, in the spring of 1897, said : " He searched carefully for the most needy district in Manchester, This he found in Ancoats, at that time much more neglected than it is to-day. There was an old music hall called the Star, which he pur- chased, and upon the site of it and in the neighboring streets he built his mission hall and dwelling house, and afterwards the row of houses used as training homes for missionaries. There he and his wife and family have made their home, laboring without sparing themselves for the spiritual, moral and temporal welfare of the poor people round about. It was a very unusual course to take, and there was much wonder and some criticism among friends ; but altogether apart from the success of the work in Ancoats — and there was success — an impression was created in the minds of many good people of the more conventional sort which is not likely soon to wear off. Here were people really 'living the life.' There could be no mistake about the fact of their sincerity and devotion ; they had decided on a noble course of action, and no generous heart could attempt to belittle it. The Star Hall soon became the centre of a movement for a higher and more consistent standard of Christian living, and its influence has by no means been confined to the inhabitants of the immediate neighborhood."

Number of residents " It is difficult to give figures since there is not a differentiation between workers and residents. Naturally many residents who are students, etc., do not do any settlement work as ordinarily understood, but yet help in the work of University Hall by the mere fact of residence." "The departments of work are: (i) Provision of social residence among University students, graduates and others. (2) City improvement by alter- ation of existing and erection of new buildings. (3) Educational, especially in social science, geography, history, nature study and art." — Senior Resident. The work of University Hall is now carried on by the Town and Gown Association, Limited, the board of which has representatives of civic interests on the one hand and academic on the other.

Members of the association, grouped together as families, undertook to get gradually acquainted with residents, and to invite them to social gatherings . . . and this gave us opportunities of becoming better acquainted with our neighbors.

Universite Populaire. 127 Faubourg St. Antoine Universite Populaire. ig Rue de Belleville. It is not strictly orthodox to call the institutions of the Faubourg St. Antoine and its Paris and provincial imitators "settlements," since (if we except Belleville, where a number of university students have taken up their abode in a workingman's tenement house) the v>rorkers in them are not "resi- dents." They call themselves " universitfes populaires," but they have so little in common with "university extension" — which has existed here for thirty years, and has displayed considerable vigor within the last ten or twelve — and so much in common, spite of the absence of " residents," with the settlements, that it is doing no great violence to reality or language to class them with the latter. It is not only that they are active in a score of ways in which university extension is inert — they are primarily social, and only remotely and indiffer- ently pedagogic — but the relations between the workers and the people are of the same intimate, natural, wholesome, mutually benefiting character as in the settlements, the settlement attitude being one of getting as well as giving, in pursuance of the settlement belief that the people have quite as much to teach as they have to learn. — Alvin F.

Tours, as an institution for the education of the people. Director, J A. Tours. Number of residents, none. Number of non-resident workers, 180. The building contains board room, reading-room, library, gymnasium, two club rooms, lecture room, assembly room, large hall, and kitchen. The pur- pose of the society is to promote the development of the people by instructive and friendly meetings, as much as possible, of persons of both sexes. The religious and political views of those who attend the meetings, in what capacity they may come, are never to be inquired after. The means to attain this end are a reading-room for men and women ; weekly lectures on literature, history, physics, pedagogy, political economy ; courses of lectures on different subjects for men and women separately, or for both together (these discussions are marked by an intimate tone); Sunday evening meetings ; musical or theatrical performances ; magic lantern ; tableaux (the large hall accommodates 525 persons ; one price for all rows) ; legal advice ; clubs for boys, girls, men, women ; friendly intercourse ; discussions on scientific subjects ; chess club ; travelling club ; and lessons in the Dutch, French, English and German languages, bookkeeping, reading and writing for adults, needlework, mending, making and cutting of one's own clothes, cooking, drilling for boys and girls, fencing, acting, singing (choir of men and women). Fees for the lessons, clubs and meetings are from 2^^ to 10 cents a lesson {about half a penny to 2 pence) ; for the reading-room, 25 cents in three months (4 pence) ; for the lectures, 5 cents (i penny) ; for the Sunday evening meetings, 10 cents (2 pence) ; beer, lemonade, coffee, tea, bread and cheese, from 3 to 10 cents (half a penny to 2 pence). A committee consisting of 150 members are at work in the different divisions. About 700 persons attend the lessons, clubs and meetings. The average number of those who attend the lectures is 200, and of the Sunday evening meetings 500. Results, if the better developed impart their knovy- ledge, talents, experience, in a friendly way to those who are less privileged in that respect, the result is expected to be, that they will learn to appreciate and feel interested in each other, which will be a great satisfaction to either party. — Circular of Information in English. .

Later, we established a kindergarten, which, like the night school, is still in successful operation." The district of Kyoto, where Airinsha is located, is east of the Kamo River and near the greatest thoroughfare of the city, which is the third largest in Japan. In this district of Kyoto live thousands of abjectly poor laboring people, in the midst of a large number of silk and porcelain factories, and in the neighboring hotels and boarding houses are many students. The distinctive feature of Airinsha is that it is missionary, and religious teaching is a large portion of its work. It is practically a household church, including Sunday-school, Bible classes, etc, — The CoDimons, Chicago, May, 1897. Social Settlements in Japan, Outlook, 56: 511 (June 26, 1897.)

Kenda, where the settlement is located, is the most crowded section of the city of Tokyo. Its population consists not only of the poor, but also of the students in the schools and universities of Tokyo. In the midst of this section, whose population is above 200,000 — Tokyo is a city of over a million souls — Mr. Katayama opened his house, naming it after the great English Christian socialist. " The main object of the hall is to become a connecting link between the higher and lower classes of the country, and at the same time to impart scientific knowledge to young men." — The Commons, Chicago, May and July, 1897.

The honorable secretary writes : " It is hoped that we may be able to resume the work of a residential settlement before long. Conditions here make such work somewhat difficult. The poorer classes do not concentrate in any one quarter of the town, but are to be found distributed in all parts. Further, there are very few university men who have sufficient money or leisure to enable them to reside in a settlement. We therefore thought it best to confine ourselves for the present to an effort to bring together in friendly intercourse, for the purposes of political and social discussion, representatives of the university and of the laboring classes, and to avoid anything in the New South Wales. 63 nature of charity work. Sydney is already overloaded with charitable aid societies. We have also identified ourselves with political agitations for the amelioration of social conditions, and have lately had the satisfaction of seeing an early-closing act, the agitation for which we were mostly responsible, become law. Our efforts to cultivate good feeling between class and class have not been fruitless. Our members have been welcomed in the councils of trade and labor organizations, and our assistance is sought from time to time by classes of workingmen who are endeavoring to improve their condition. The work is still in its infancy, and more may be hoped for the future." LIST OF BOOKS Suitable for a Settlement (Resident's) Library.
