Our NattlIa lized Citizens.
lLnuisNille Cnurinr-Iollrnal ]

Louisville Courier-Journal)
 America has d greater claim upon the loyalty of her European citizens than any country in Europe has upon those who remain at home. The right of asylum extended to Euro peans by America has constituted for them means of escape from unde- sirable forms of government as we'll as an opportunity to earn more and live better than they could at home. The common canons of courtesy for bid the guest to disregard his oblt- gallons. The obligations of natural ized Americans are greater and more solemn than those of 8 guest. Sen timent, as well as sense of duty, should make the loyalty of those re- ccived from king-cured, army-ridden countries, especially good Americans If sentiment is lacking there Is nc means of lodging or explaining away the written and recorded pledge by which allegiance to other countries is renounced by the applicant for American citizenship. If the pledge is disregarded and an overt act o1 treason committed the remedy is pro- Vided by the law.

Municipal Aid for Drug Victims.
(New Lodon Day.)

| It is. probable that New London
 numbers among it's population a | smaller percentage of drug victims | than any other city of Connecticut 1 which maintains so large a measure l of intercourse with the outside world | Yet the total number of persons ad : l dicted to the use of narcotic drugs, 1 even in New London, is unuuestion- 1 ably much larger than generally sup l posed. There are scores of habitua1 | drug users. if not hundreds, most of 1 them unsuspected even by their &C., quaintances.
 In spite of the drastic state law against the indiscriminate sale of drugs passed by the last legislature, 1t has not been a matter of extreme difficulty for these persons to obtain supplies. Rhide Island, where the sale of drugs has been practically un- restricted is only a few miles away and an occasional trip across the bor- der was all that was necessary until the beginning of the present month
 Now that the new federal law is in
 effect, and the path of the drug pur-
 chaser filled with mighty obstacles, a
 new situation is created In all prob ability the great majority of the drug victims will find it quite impossible to obtain narcotics. Understanding as to what the sudden deprivation of a drug fiend mcans-what the conse- Quences of a stoppage of supply is
 liable to result in----is not confined to the medical profession It means the most agonizing suffering, fre- quently total nervous collapse, acute insanity, in the case of the more ad- ti1ff Nk,,yg unfitness even for those less far gone.
 At least one Connecticut city,
 Bridgeport, has anticipated these re- suits of the operation of the new law. It's charity department has made ar- rangements for the treatment of drug victims and has publicly notified them when and where to report. sNs- tematic campaign of regeneration is to be carried on. The shock of de- privation is to be ameliorated by such methods as the medical profession has at it's command Wherever necessary the victims are to be taken care of in hospitals and other institutions until their crises are past. And the city is to stand the expense.
 The federal drug law creates an emergency. It suddenly compels drug users to resort to treatment looking to a cure. But it does not provide for the conditions which tcreates. It is up to each community to do that
 We do no took for an epidemic of drug insa nifty in New London. as they obviously do in Bridgeport. but it Is almost beyond question that there will be good many very miserable per sons who ought to be helped and whom there is nobody else and no other agency to help but the city It is suggested that the charity depart ment should hold itself in readiness tc adopt special attitude toward the

SWIMMING AN AID TO BEAUTY.

Annette Kellerman, the celebrated diving girl. says that swimming sh ould be taught in the schools. She does not advocate this in order that people may be better able to save themselves and others from drowning but in order to give young people a better form. Swimming no doubt is a healthy exer- else. It brings into play the arms and legs and the muscles of the back and the exercise in the water Is exhilirat- ing. Miss Kellerman, who Is a noted living exponent of the benefit she claims from the art of swimming. Is not the only woman who has become we'll developed as a result of diving and swimming. AS a general thing the swimming girls, and there are a number of them, are well formed and seem capable of great endurance in the water, some of them being able to swim for miles without being ex hausted. a
 It Is, however, as a life saver that swimming has been generally advocat ed, principally during the summer sea- son when there are so many lives lost by drowning. It has been proven on several occasions that Knowledge of swimming could have saved many young people, who had ventured out beyond their depth or had fallen out ot a boat, sometimes near shore and of- ten under such conditions that little effort supplemented by knowledge of swimming might have saved their lives. There is no argument to be offered against this statement and it has been presented so often that it hould bear fruit, If not in the nature of school instruction then by some method which would give the young folks an opportunity to acquire tho are of swimming. Now that an ap- peal has been made on the ground that it will improve the form it is likely to obtain some new supporters. Beauty is desired even If an appeal for more serious reason fails.

while New Britain will still be obliged to foot the bills. The state should have the whole problem inves- tlgated; ascertain what is the best system of sewage disposal and then place 1t before the towns and cities and let them adopt it without any extra expense except by putting it into operation. It is not only a state problem, but is rapidly assuming na- tional proportions. No one place should be compelled to assume the expense of investigation and that seems to be the plan under which the proposition is now being conducted.

Admission to the Bar.
(Fitchburg Sentinel.)

Quite a heated discussion is in progress in interested circles over the practical forms to be required for ad- mission to the practice of law in Massachusetts courts. A few weeks ago the state board of bar examiners gave a long and interested hearing to many lawyers who appeared to urge their views. Last week there was a hearing before the legislative committee on the judiciary on the same subject There ore two sharply antagoniStic views, with middle ground possible between them. The main question is whether any man should be admitted to the bar who does not have college or university education. All the intensity of a law yer's professional views has been shown by various individuals on this subject, while the generosity and char ity with which most human beings must treat each other has been lack ing.
 On the side of the conservatives, that is, on the side of those who limit the profession to formally edu- catcd men, there is much to be said regarding the necessary high standing
 
 much more than means of a liveli- hood, that every lawyer Is a sworn of- ficer of the court. that there are lofty conditions to maintain and much more in that line. It is true that the people of the state cannot be too care full about letting down the bars of in competent and dishonest pra actitioners of the law. There is so much of a J,D
 meet lawyers with sharp practices that no excuse should be given for any extension of the present suspicious at titude. The profession whose pur- pose is the promotion of justice be- tween man and man ought to be above suspicion, either of ignorance or fraud.
 On the other hand. it was a notice able fact, at the first named hearing that Judge Wait of the superior court was one of the liberal men who op- posed the strict regulation which the collegc-standar men would impose. He was surprised by a large number or young lawyers. ~;ney made out a prima facier case which is we'll worth considering. There are many aspir- ing, hard working, studious men, 1 every inch scholars, honorable and l high minded, who, by reason of pov- 1 erty, are unable to get q college di- l ploma. But they become foa more competent students than many who l go through college because their fathers put them through They work by day and evenings they study | their books. They attend the classes of the Boston university or other law l schools. They get a solid founda- 1 ton in their profession. They study 1 In law offices and get practical work just as thoroughly as the regular col
 lege graduates. In fact. their col | ments prove that the college line is an arbitrary one to draw, while. as 1 regards the true requirements of tba profession and standards of efficiencv and honor there are plenty of men i outside of the college crowd who aro more worthy than many inside the line. On the whole, having rop,r,, to the real honor of the profession the substance and not the form of 1 what is desired, it seems to be ,o,
 sonable to fix some other stana,a
 than that which is proposed bv tho
 man who would make q oo,,.~

special cases that are extremely likely to develop in the immediate future. There should be no lack of willingness tc extend helping hand, in the right way, to those whose weakness is likely to be suddenly developed or made manifest by the cutting off of the drug supply. They will need humane. and intelligent professional treatment -and the city should stand ready to give it, ungrudgingly.

LIBRARY NOTES.
What Libraries Did For Colonial
 America.

"The libraries were augmented by donations; reading became fashion able; and our people, having no pub lick amusements to divert their atten- tion from study became better ac- quainted with books, and in a few years were observed by strangers to be better instructed and more intel ligent than people of the same rank generally are in other countries. @ These libraries have improved the general conversation of the Ameri- cans, made the common tradesmen and farmers as intelligent as most gentlemen from other countries and perhaps have contributed in some de- gree to the stand so generally made throughout the colonies in defense of their privilege ges"--Boniamin Frank lin.
 What They May Do Now.
 The most important work of a public library with reference to its effect on the future of a community is to supply such reading matter to it's people using a foreign language as will aid them to become as speedily as possible full nedged, patriotic Aemrican citizens.
 What the future Of our country is going to be will depend entirely on the kind of citizens this generation is producing. The quality of each ones citizenship depends mostly on the thoughts he thinks; and these thoughts are determined largely bv what he reads. When we look at our work from this point of view Gas I

So large an institution as the New Haven hospital has now become is con- stanly meeting with social as we'll as medical or surgical disease, and it can
 not fulfill its complete mission in the community unless it is equipped to do something for it's relief.

HOW 1O'COACH
Men Who Won Four Champ
ionships Plan to lmpart
the Secret

After winning almost all the cham
pionships In sight, University of I'LL
nois coaches Of athletic teamse will
adopt a new role next summer when
they will try to show other coaches
how to turn the trick. For announce
ment has just been made that the sec
ond annual School for Athletic Coach.
es will be held In connection with the
summer session.
For six weeks Director Huff and
his staff will endeavor to show their
pupils just how 1t is done. The novel
school viii open on June 81 and close
on July 81. It is not an experiment
for last year 127 men were registered
comprising about one-eighth of the
total registration at the summer SEES
sion.
Courses will be given as follows:
Baseball. Director Huff: track ath.
letics, Coach Harry L. Gill; football,
Coach Robert G. zuppke; basketball,
Coach Ralph R. Jones. A brief course
in training will also be given by the
Illinois trainer.
Announcement OF the School for
Athletic Coaches calls attention to the
remarkable fact that Illinois just at
present seems to monopolize the cham
pionship situation. When the Illinois
basketbail- team in. March won IL
games straight and annexed the con-
ference championship. 1t was the
fourth consecutive championship for
Illinois. Bob Zuppke's football heroes
had waded through the West last fall
while In 1914 Huff's nine and Gill's
track men were undisputed champions
This record was without parallel
in the history of athletics and the uni
yersity feels that the coaches who
can turn out winning teams them
selves may be expected to prove sue
cessful in imparting the rudiments to
others.
The ideal of the university in install
ing this novel school was 20 help to
supply the demand for trained coach
es. It is impossible to furnish men
for all the places that are open. Many
coaches and directors also enroll 10
amplify their knowledge. High school
teachers, who are coaching one or
more sports, also find the opportunity
advantageous, for more skill means
larger salary check.
The school is eminently practical
Students are obliged to report in uni
form and most of the instruction Is
given on the athletic field, where act
ual games are played. Certificates are
issued to those who demonstrate their
success in grasping the lore of the var
ious sports.
Indications point to greatly in
creased attendance this summer. The
department OF physical training OF the
university has issued circular des-
,cribing the school. An interesting por-
ton OF this publication is that devoted

Jones and Zuppke and the records of
their teams.
