Ten days later Vildidus Haws was
guided by an officer Of the law to his
train at the North Union Station. He
appeared thin and pale, and his hands
twitched nervously He had no valise.
When the train began TO move he
seemed happy.

began to search for information.

Miss Crouch. who never before had
heard such strong language from her
intended, stared in open-mOuthed horror,
as he clucked to his horses
you've got to say quick he called,
as they started into brisk trot Libonv
waited until the last minute. then nodded
her head violently and fled to the house,
like the coy maiden of forty-two she
was.
Vildidus arrived at the station, which
was eighteen miles from his home, ,ust
two hours before the train was due. He
had his carpet-bag with him-the first
time it had seen the light since the days
of his grandfather 1t was not filled
with Clothes however, for Vildidus had
only one best suit, and he was wearing
that. For the sake of economy, he had
decided to carry his food with him, and
set around somewhere nights so there
would be no hotel bills SO the old
carpet-bag was stuffed with all the
eatabeS the farm afforded, and its
owner left home with an easy mind
When he purchased his ticket he felt
as if he was doing something strange and
awful. When at last the tram pulled
into the station, he was so awed by the
sight that he stood still with open
mouthed establishment.
Hey, mister That's your train
the hay-seed train. Hurry up or you'll
get left" shouted boy on the plat
form.
With fear and trembling Vildidus
Haws went up the steps. He stumbled
into the first vacant seat. took his
enormous Carpet-bag in his lap, grabbed
his hat with one hand, while clutChing
the arm of the seat with the other, and
held his breath. He was more than
surprised to feel the train move along
slowly and easily, with little Jolt or jar
Some of his fellow -townsmen, who had
travelled before, offered to put his carpe'
bag in the rack or in a safe place on the
floor; but Vildidus refused to have It
moved, and showed plainly that he did
not care to talk, and he soon was LETT alone
with his thoughts He had a list OF
places that he wanted to visit, and he
took it out and wondered where he
should go first.
Boston Common" he murmured to
himself There ought to be some good
place there where could eat my victuals.
Probably there'll be some honest man
round there who would take care Of my
valise while 60 to see the sights. l
don't want TO lug 1t, if can help it, its
so blamed heavy"
When the train steamed into the
North Union Station, NildIdus never had
imagined such a crowd or such noise
Only the fear of losing his vallSe kept
him from shutting his eyes and putting
his. fingers in his ears. His fellow
travellers hurried past and left him far
behind, trying to take It all in Outside
the depot he was more confused than
ever. He wanted to inquire the way to
the Common; but everybody seemed in
such a hurry that he hesitated about
asking He stared along for two blocks
and then went into a store to inquire.

Most Italians have a keen desire for
self-improvement, especially on the
artistic side. That is why you may

will not miss a single one of those
operas when Herr COnreid chooses
to give them as a change from Wag-
ner. The Italians taste is good in the
drama and in literature. as we'll as in
music and art. 1t is always the best
which appeals to him, however, poor
he may be.
The complaint is often made that
the Italian is criminal to a greater de-
gree than other section of the popu-
lation This is not the fact. Prison

quency in proportion to the population
being thereby given.
Writing in the italian Herald the
other day, an American said of the
Italian-Amercans zone has only to
watch their incessant industry, their
painstaking efforts TO assimilate the
great principles of our democracy, to
be entirely satisfied that there is no
cause for fear from these sunnypeople
from the great inland sea-"
These efforts to assimilate the prin-
ciples of democracy are leading the
Italians to take interest in politics and
seek political affiliations. In a letter
to me on this subject, George B. Nc
ClelTan, Mayor of Greater New York,
wrote recently:
LAS one interested in the political
development of this city and state, it
lis to me a source of Congratulation
to observe the active interest taken
by the Italians of this city in current
political matters. The greater that in
terest the more speedy will be their
development, and the more beneficial
will be their influence in the political
life of this city and state. Such in
terest has already produced remark
ably great development, and promises
in the very near future to produce
even greater development in the influ-
ence and power which the Italian
Americans will exercise in the political
as well as the industrial life of this
city and state"
In industry, commerce, charity, re-
ligion, art, science and politics the
Italian in America is already begin
ming to play an important part. 1t is
a part destined to become more and
more important as the years roll by,
and the rising generation grows to
manhood and womanhood and takes
it's proper place in our city communi-
ties.

New York, July 22.-Maybe you're
one of these numerous persons who,
every time they hear these hot days
of some youngster living in what they
know as the slums, exclain, Poor lit
tie thing He never gets a chance to
have any childish fUn!"
If that is your view you are nightly
mistaken. The fact is, the little folk
of the tenenents, despite the oppressive
artificial handicaps all about them, ex-
tract about as much healthy fun out
of life as the boys and girls of any
clean, wholesome residential section.
Often they get more, for they are con-
noisseurs in the art of making the best
of things. They do not quarrel with
their surroundings, neither do they
lament the fate that keeps them from
owning a velocipede; but they take
their pleasure as they find it, and en-
joy 1t with all the abandon of whole
hearted childhood. This is especially
true in the summer time when they
can escape from the four wallis of
their dingy homes into the streets, fill
ed though they are with all manner
of Objectionable things.
The idea that the little people of the
tenements are strangers to the gayer
side of childhood has doubtless arisen
in some such fashion as this: A group
of men and women start on a "slum-
ming" tour. They behold the push carts
filling the streets, with Shrewd bar
gamers around them. They see men
and women struggling along on the
walks with great bundles of clothing
on their backs. They view dirty lit
~. \
and they breathe in the hot, close air,
and they say MY, the poor chill
dren!" even while the objects of their
sympathy are romping before the sight
seers very eyes. But then the visit
ors have started in to see the worst
side of the "other half" and the worst
side of life never deals with light
hearted boys and girls.
Light-heartedness is, indeed, one of
the chief characteristics of these chill
dren. II you don't believe it, then
for that matter, watching streetful
of them, and it's ten to one that you
will go back to your own haunts with
a good deal lighter heart i'm your bosom
than when you started out. For the
light-heartedhess of the little folk Of
the slums is truly infectious.
And how do they get their fun?

The Columbus Hospital of New
York is one of the best known and
most efficient of Italian charitable in
situations. In efficiency, though not
In size, it can challenge comparison
with any hospital in America. 1t is
carried on by the missionary Sisters
of the Sacred Heart, all native Italians
The Italian Benevolent Institute and
the Society for the Protection of Ital-
ian Immigrants are other excellent
institutions maintained by Italians for
ltallans. Their work is of the great
est importance to the community, be-
cause they find work for thousands
of friendless, helpless men every year,
and prevent them from becoming a
charge on the American people
The name of the Italian charities in
all the large American cities is, indeed
legion. The siXty-two united societies
over which l have the honor to pre-
side are all in one way or another,
of a charitable nature.
Different opinions may exist among
readers of this article as to the desir-
ability of the Italians devotion to his
church; but surely nobody, whatever
his religious creed or lack of it, can
help admiring the generosity and self
sacrifice with which that devotion is
displayed.
Father Bernardina Polizzo, rector
of the Church of the Most Precious
Blood, one of the East Side churches
of New York, has built a noble edifice
at a cost of 100000. from the pennies
contributed by the Woodworking mem
bers of his congregation. They are
all poor Italians, but during the past
three years they have paid off 100000
of debt, besides raising large sums
annually for the running expenses of
the church and the missions attached
to it. This story might be duplicated
a dozen times in any big city with a
large italian population.
And the life of the Italian priest in
Little Italy is a life of daily self
sacrifice and the hardest of hard work.
That was well eXemplified by Father
Nicholas Russo, who first took charge
of the Jesuit Italian Mission on the
East Side of New York.
Father Russo was one of the lead
ing scholars in the Society of Jesus.
His life work had been among edu-
Gated and cultured people, as a pro-
fessor of philosophy and as rector of
Boston College. Yet when the appeal
came u him to work in the slums
among his poor countrymen, he cheer
fully responded, declaring that he
would devote the rest of his life to
them. He labored there for about
ten years, and then died of overwork.
Priests and people are worthy of one
another.
The Italians are entering the pro-
LESSONS. There are in New York
City 115 Italian registered physicians,
SO pharmacists, q lawyers, Is public
school teachers and architects.
There are sixteen daily and weekly
newspapers printed in the italian Ian
