Offers Wilson Chance to See Canal.

President Taft has written a letter
to Governor Wilson offering to place
at his disposal one of the big battle
ship of the navy to make a trip of in
spection to the Panama canal some
time before Mr.. Wilson is inaugu-
rated. The president has thorough
knowledge of the work of the army of
engineer on the isthmus himself
through personal visits to the canal
zone and is of the opinion that his
successor would like to know as much
as possible about the great engineer
ing feat before he enters office.
Many questions of policy concerning
the canal may be allowed for in Mr..
Wilson's administration and Mr.. Taft
decided that it was only fair to the
man who takes his place in the White
House March 4 to offer him an OPP
portunity to inspect the canal and
gathered information at first hand.

Some specific duties of citizen
ship are these:
l. Respecting the rights and priv
ileges of others.
,. Performing civic duties honor
ably, and without yielding to the
temptation of private gain.
8. The payment of debts.
4 The respect of another mans
religion.
5. The same respect for another
mans reputation that you demand
for your own.
6. The willingness to defend the
country that protects You in time
of peace.
Most men are long on demanding
their rights
A true citizen should be just as
anxious to know his duty and to
do it.

nouncement of allegiance to any
foreign country He must swear
to defend the Constitution of the
United States. This oath should
inspire him to read his Constitu-
tional policy, He must be able to
speak English, to write, to answer
some questions showing his under
standing of the simple principles
of government He is then ad-
mitted to citizenship.
He is now one of the family.
with equal rights And privileges
with all others, and he can hold
any Office except that of president
or vice president.
Citizenship is denied to Chinese
and japanese. 1t is also denied
to anarchists and to all avowed or
suspected enemies of constitutional
government.
To attain the dignity of citizen
ship in the United States is to re-
celVe assurance of rights and priv
ileges that are numerous and VAL
liable. Every citizen becomes the
recipient of benefits both from the
state in which he resides and from
the nation. AS a citizen YOU can do
all these things and many more:
1. Possess and protect your
property.
?. Pursue your ambition fearless
ly. if it be a lawful ambition.
3 Adopt and practice the religion
Of your choice.
4 Have freedom of speech (be-
ing responsible for what you say.
s. The right Of jury trial.
6. The assurance of security to
yourself, your family ana possess
sions.
Z. The assurance that you shall
not be imprisoned for debt, unless
fraud be involved.
8. The right freely to assemble
with other citizens and petition for
the redress of grievances. (This
is the initiative or the recall, ac-
cording to the nature of the griev-
ance.)
These are a few of the distinct
rights and privileges that are the
reward of citizenship You will
not fail to notice that every one
of them INCLUDES a duty and
responsibility. For every privilege
you enjoy is the privilege of every
other citizen. AND YOU CAN
NOT PUT LET OR HINDRANCE
IN HIS WAY.

ATLANTA STANDS HIGH.

Editor The Georgian:
We people of the South are, gem
orally speaking, under the impress
sion that schools and hospitals Of
cities like Philadelphia and New
York are superior to our own.
They are, I will admit, further adj
vanced in technical and, perhaps,
laboratory research, but when it
comes to practical rational scien-
tific medicine and surgery, Atlanta
schools equal any of the East and
are superior TO many.
Comparing our present enlarged
Grady hospital with others of SINH
lar size, l wish to say that Atlanta
has an institution of which she
may we'll be proud 1t is modern
in every respect Atlanta is the
most popular city of the South.
People constantly ask me about
our Auditorium, Of which they
have heard much Also, about our
hospitals and institutions of learn
ing In reply TO questions regard
ing foreigners coming to Georgia,
reply that the state welcomes all
good people.
The daily papers of Atlanta are
among the best we have in this
country. l can not get along with
out reading The Georgian and
other papers Of Atlanta.
