To I he r.dilor nj the Ktrning I'tihUc l.nlqci : Sir It is some years since William Allen White asked the question, "What is the matter with Kansas V" No one lias yet aroused the ithtpns of this city to any grcat extent by fishing. "What is the mat ter with Philadelphia';!" Some good, how ever, may come out of the present awaken ing of the .civic pride or conscience of some renresentntive citizens connected with connected wnn ine Chamber of Conimeice. Ilntuiy Club nud other oignuUntions. The publicity given to the seriousness ot the housing situation should result in some definite action being taken to secure sufficient dwellings for the people who have tome heie fioin other communities, and are em ployed in local industries, ns well ns to provide for the natural increase iu popula tion. New houses, howpver. will benefit only those with families and provide them with homes. What cftoits. if uny, nre being made to provide for ceituin wants of the voung unmarried of both sexes who have found employment heie, and whostay nt boi rding bouses, hotels. V. M. C A. or Y. W. C. A.V Among these wants can be mentioned the chance of meeting young folks of the opposite sex beside those at the public dance halls, amusement other than tlie movies or theui'-es. and iccrentiou other than an occasional trip to Atlantic City . There are many young folks who would not care to form permanent association with those thev meet nt the public dance, and who cannot afford fteiiuent attendance .at the theatres or visits to the seashore. The problem is not such a great one iu several other cities that ould be mentioned, because of the tact that strangers find a more lordhil welcome there, nud become more iplickly a part of the community itself. Iu this city a stranger meets n cuse-liardened social atmosphere that is hard to penetrate unless one is armed with letters of intro duction, or is a military or government official. The effect-of Philadelphia's citizens being so absorbed in themselves, so smugly and complacently self-satisfied, is far-reaching iu business, industiial and political life. This city should be at least the second in size in America, but is letnrded in its develop ment by a provincialism that is almost as preventive of growth us thn shoes of a Chinese lady of the old regime were to the feet.

The writer is lemlnded qt a story of Nancv Wjnne's iu leguid to the dancing class at Wurts's. The boys gathered at one side ot the room and the girls ut the other, and only when the 'music- began did they leave their places. Such aloofness muy be some wlitit excusable in young folks when meet ing otbeis of opposite sex, but the spirit of (donnishness seems to be prevalent every where throughout the city. The social nt- mospheie is so dltleient irom mm ot ouic-i-cities, especially those a little further south and west. The slrauger coming into this city in most cases will be ly-ie n year or more before getting acquainted with more than a dozen persons outside of the office or shop in which he is employed. I'sually the per sons one does meet are aKo uon-Pliiludel-phiaus. In other places a visitor or stranger nfter beeomiug acquainted vvitli one family, it he or she is ut all presentable, is soon intioduced to the friends of the fumily. and within a short time has a number of ac quaintances. Not so in this ultra -conservative city, however. Philadelphia may be the City of Urotherly Love, but all the love is restricted to fellow Phlladelphians, none being shown toward the btrangers within its gales. OXK OP THi: STILyvllLHS.

Ireland and the Peace Conference To the i:litoi of the lliaiiinj I'lilthc J.nlyei : Sir Since the sessions of the Pence Con ferral e opened ficqtieut lefcienus have been mnde to the Lloyd tieoige I ish convention. We often lead, fur example, lefcriiug to thut ((invention, sue Ii headlines as: 'Towed Settlement l.c is for Iieland." "Internal Ilniiuony Fails," (ioiernmeiit Mut Act," etc. In the calling ft? that convention P.ritish politicians appear to have succeeded in the policv of imposing on the lihi-iul spirit of the win Id. They called all observcis to witness their desire to serve Ireland and dednred that the settlement must i made by liishmeii. Thej proposed a c-onvention. not by asking the men and women of Ireland, in all th" thirty -two counties of thut countiy, to elect delegates and pledging ucquicsceuc e in the will fcf the majority, but by themselves nam ing the delegates who would sit in (lint con vention. They did nut come to anv agree ment. It was not intended that they should. If N quite unlikely that the government uui.iuis wuo nave lor years given substantial encmiiiigement to the opponents of Irish autonomy would pick delegates who would do justice to Ireland. Tlio, convention was not representative of the Irish people. It was nn Imposition- a farce! The sentiment of the people of Ireland was plainly indicated by the December election. Independence and lepieseutntion at the Peace Confeience were its open demands. Seldom have a people been mow unanimous in any demand. This unanimity wus not the le sult of the events of icccnt ycats. It wus the conviction of the masses of Hip popula tion, uttered without fer of the conse quent es, nud icfiectiug the feelings which have dominated the Irish clianuter for seven and a half centuries.
