SACRIFICE, OF YOUNG MEN GIVES
FOREIGN BOY HIS OPPORTUNITY

where, only by the hardest work and
the stricteSt economy, he had forced
the overwOrked soil TO provide a liv-
ing for HIM and his small family.
When the long winter days came he
would sit and smoke with his neigh
bors and they would talk Of the taxes
and of the sad plight of the father
land. but always they were careful
not to say too much for they knew
that the officers sometimes dealt
harshly with a man if he became too
free with his speech.
And sometimes one of the neigh
bOrs would receive 4 letter from over
the seas and it would tell Of the Won
derful opportunities in the land Of
America and when they had read IT
over and over they would smoke for
a time in silence and then one by one
depart for their cottages TO dream OF
what might nave been. But Joseph 5
father had done more than dream. He
had resolved that he would take his
boy to the great country where he
could earn money and be free. And
Jc ienhs mother had sighed and had
agreed that ii would be for the best.
When at last another spring had
come and the little farm had been
sold, they packed i'm bundles their
few belongings and boarded a train
for the great seaport. Joseph
remembers that wonderful trip.
How they came 10 where the great
ships lay at anchor and how at last
they went aboard with hundreds OF
others and they all made merry dur
ing the days spent in crossing the
seas. And then came the great city
which seemed TO reach 10 the very
skies as he gazed awe-struck while
the big ship was brought TO anchor
More days of merry-making while in
oUisitive officials ordered chem about
and then the rush and the din OF the
city.
Joseph's father had found work OF
a varied sort and the happy months
had rolled by when they no longer
felt the loneliness and the discour-
agement of the little farm on the
outskirts OF the poverty stricken Pol
ish village. Joseph. too. began &C
work and there were many people OF
his own race SO that he soon forgot
his old playmates and his boyhooo
pleasures.
But JOseph's parents did not FORGE

As regularly as the weeks OF the
winter roll around there can be
found each Monday and Thursday
night on a certain west bound Wash
ingtOn st. car three young men who
are as truly missionaries as they
whose names are heralded from the
distant shores of Africa or of China.
Regardless Of the calls that lure the
average young man of the city these
three hold TO the work which they
have laid out TO do and as a result
half hundred young Poles of st. Adel-
bert's parish are learning without
price the rudiments of the language
and the literature Of the country
which they have adopted.
The work which these young men
do is a part OF the educational
scheme OF the local Y. NJ. g. A. The
three young men teach three classes;
there is a class for the ones who can
not yet speak the English language.
there is one for those who are just
learning TO read and there is one for
those who can CLEAN meaning from
pages OF English literature. The
teaching OF these classes is no small
task and the results are not startling
Is apparent. but the young men do
their work cheerfully and quietly and
their pay is the satisfaction of il and
also their car fare.

one can forget the amusement and
can grasp the deeper significance OF
the work he can perhaps understand
the satisfaction which is the wages
for which the three young men labor.
Consider for Instance how the work
OF the three young men met the needs
OF Joseph -
Joseph was only a boy when his
mother called him 10 her one spring
morning and said, son. We are go
ing tC America" Joseph had looked
into his mothers face with open
mCJthed wonder. He saw all the
glories that his young mind had ever
conceived as he repeated TO himself.

mother had said, ARE YOU glad p" and
he had replied with a shout OF Joy as
he rushed away 10 tell the news 10
his playmates.

derstand when he would be given in
structions and so he would be set
adrift after a few days to shift as
best he could alone.
At last hungry and ragged and
desperate, the youth found himself in
Chicago, a part of the flotsam and
jetsam which annually gathers there
for the winter months. For days he
sought in vain to find work until fin
ally, driven TO madness by the daily
gnaWlng of hunger, he waited one
night beside a dark corner and struck
down a passer-by from whose pockets
he scraped together a few dollars.
Now Joseph was not an adept at
such work and he had done the job
In a bungling manner SO that it was
only by fleetness Of foot that he
eluded the police. Thoroughly fright
ened, he did not stop until he found
himself on freight train which land
ed him on a cold bleak morning in
South Bend. He had no intentions OF
remaining in South Bend, but when
he had eaten he decided that he
would look about him, and SO it was
that by chance he met with fortune
and secured work again among others
Of his COuntrymen.
After the novelty of his new home
and new work had worn off Joseph
decided that he had found the place
where he would like 10 remain. He
had gained new friends who, much 10
his wonder. could understand the Eng
lish language, although many OF them
had not been in the new country as
long as he had. These friends he
soon learned were hard working, am
bilious boys who were saving money
and getting ahead much faster than
the boys with whom he had been as
ISOLATED since he had come TO the new
country.
1t was when finally Joseph went
with one Of his new-fOund friends to
a night school and there learned that.
without cost, he could secure the in
struction which he so needed that he
felt again the JOY that he had felt
when he first started out for the land
of his dreams When he learned that
here were young men who were will
ing 10 give their time that he might
be helped. he forgot the distrust and
the encouragement that had been TAX

ago when he left the fatherland

money and could have a house all to
himself, with a garden and chickens,
he decided to leave the crowded city
and TO seek out this place Of plenty
and contentment.
All went well for a time while
Joseph and his father both worked
in the mine and they saved some
money and had little house to live
in and JOseph's mother cared for a
tiny garden and few chickens. Here
too there were more Of their own
cOuntrymen and ii was seldom that
they had occasion TO converse with any
others and so they lived and had their
pleasures much as they would have
had them at the old home in the
fatherlard.
Fortune at last seemed to be smil-
ing on the little family when the ac-
cident occurred and the father with
many other men were killed. Every
one said that the company was TO
blame and would have to care for the
families left destitute but when Joseph
and his mother at last fully under
stood they learned that they had
signed away hope of recourse for a
mere pittance. And so the mother
pinned and dropped and in a few
months Joseph was left alone TO face
the world in "A country of which he
had learned but little.
He worked for a time in the mine
and then when he was laid of he
became discouraged amidst the scenes
of his troubles and SO decided TO move
on to the great west from where came
tales OF much work and big pay. In
the course OF few weeks he found
himself a part of the army Of men
which annually followed the course OF
the harvest. As he travelled from
place to place he tried hard 10 get
work. but now he was among strang-
ers who could not understand his
foreign speech and he was rebuffed
and laughed at and left 10 become
penniless and more discouraged.
And 80 Joseph found himself during
the late summer a Wanderer In the
great land of which he had dreamed
such glorious dreams few short
years before. Occasionally he met
others with whom he could talk and
they would travel together for time
until in the course OF events they
would become separated and Joseph
would again be left alone. Occasion
ally he secured work from some hard
pressed farmer. but he could not un-
