HELPING ALIENS TO BECOME CITIZENS
Bureau of Naturalization to Co
 operate With Supt. Holmes

The night schools of the city of New Britain will open on Monday. ; Classes that may be attended by per-
 sons of foreign birth will be conducted
 in the Grammar and Prevocational schools, where instruction will be giv- en in the following subjects: English arithmetic, geography, history, civics. typewriting, bookkeeping, dressmak- ing, housekeeping ant cooking.
 The foreign born population of New Britain. in 1910 was 1s,O15. Of this number S,S43 were males who attained their majority, and only 3,O54 were July 1, 1910, 2,42S aliens in Hartford county declared their intention to be- come citizens and 5,OSO actually ap- piled for citizenship.
 The bureau of naturalization has made arrangements to furnish Superintendent Holmes of the New Britain public schools with monthly lists of aliens who file declarations of intention or petitions for naturaliza- tion. This will enable the superin tendent to get into touch with such persons and to give them valuable asSlStdHCc Ill preparing TOT citizenship.
 To inquiries as to the course which is best calculated to fit applicants for citizenship, the bureau of nat.raliza- tion has uniformly answered that while it is exceedingly difficult to lay down any hard fast rules on tlfe sub- ject, the first requisite is familiarityi with the English language, for in no other manner can the alien acquire a practical knowledge of American in- stitutions. With this as a foundation, he is ready to receive instruction in American civics and on the duties and obligations, as we'll as the rights and privileges of citizenship Besinning with these fundamentals, it is possible as time goes on to introduce such m oditications as experience may in- dicate are advisable.

Officer l Thomas Dolan, who does duty at Wal nut Hill park, has noticed for d week 1 that some one has been sleeping be- meath pile of hay at the lower end or the park. He was never able to find the man until last night when he came upon Sodok sleeping off a dr,1otx The officer declared that the accused had burrowed into the hay and was fast asleep, with two cans of sardines and a half loaf of bread beside him. when arrested. Sodok pleaded guilty to the first count against him, but said he was not a tramp. He explained that his legs got tired so he lay down in the hay. -.*r
 Twenty days in jail was the sen- tence meted out to tranK Kida, who was arrested by Officer Patrick How ley on Hartford avenue last night, fol- lowing disturbance he had with a baker named Snyder. This was the fourth time. this year that Kida had been arrested. .as ,@ s...
 Sam Rodlis was arrested by Officer
 
 last night for stealing "a bottle of Whlskey, on charge made by Michael O'Keefe,-a bartender. O'Keefe made two complaints to Officers How ley and Moore and threatened to re- port them unless they arrested Rodis. This morning O'Keefe, dazed in the head from some reason which the court seemed to understand, de- nied having asked for Rodis' arrest He admitted, however, that Rodis took bottle of whiskey without paw ing for it. Prosecutor Klett nolled the case against Rod1s and the court ordered the clerk to pay no witnesses fees to the loquacious bartender.
 The adjourned case against Henry Fenski, charged with violating health ordinance, came up today hnt as both Fenski and Lawyer E. B. Hun. gerford were in Hartford it was con. tinued until tomorrow when the com plaint will be nolled, as Fenski has repaired the insan1tary conditions which existed. 1
