POINTED PARAGRAPHS.

(From the Chicago News9
Never hit man when he's got you
down.
You will never get ahead by follow
ing the crowd.
The older a man gets the less he
knows he knows.
The man who drinks like a fish
does not take kindly to water.
The Lord made woman and she
made herself over into a lady.
The average mans conscience is
more elastic than his suspenders.
No wonder a woman seldom knows
her own mind; she changes it so often.
A woman is always looking on the
bright side of things, especially mir
rors.
When a girl is told she's as pretty
as a picture comic valentines don't
count. -
After working hard to land his
political job man can usually at
ford to take it easy.
And some people make us tired
because we can't run fast enough to
get away from them.
After man gets about so old it
Keeps him busy trying to rectify the
mistakes of his youth.
Did you ever hear of girl who had
SO many offers of marriage that she
had to use printed rejection slips?

AMERICANIzATION DAY.

Why wouldn't it be a good plan fol-
Topeka to participate in the Ameri-
canization Day movement? A goodly
number of unnaturalized foreigners
are residents of the city. Their civic
education is one of the duties of the
community. But Americanizatfon day
is not for the benefit of the foreigner,
the immigrant alone. 1t is for all cit
liens, native as we'll as foreign born
In a circular letter issued recently, DR..
Claxton, the United States commits
sioner of education, states that over
| so mayors of our largest cities have
appointed mayors committee as part
| of this national movement to make the
Fourth of July, 1915, "Americaniza-
ton Day" He adds that this move
ment is a patriotic call to all citizens,
American-born and foreign-born alike,
adults and children, to rally to Ameri-
can ideals, purposes, and common in
terests of many peoples united into
one nation. These mayors committees
represent the city government, nat
uralization officials, boards of educa-
ton, city clubs, women's patriotic and
civic organizations, social agencies,
patriotic societies, and benevolent and
fraternal organizations of foreign
arranging citizenship receptions for
newly naturalized citizens and a ma
tional characterization day committee
is assisting these mayors committees.
Among the features for this occasion
already adopted by varied cities is the
giving of special recognition to the
new citizens by having special admis-
sion tickets for them and their fam
hat nta tha
ium, they will be ushered to special.
raised platform on the stage. After
American national airs have been rem
dered by band. orchestra, or singing
societies, the pledge of allegiance will
be recited in unison as the American
flag is unfur1ed and the entire au-
dience stands and sa1utes the co1ors.
Several cities are planning pageants
or tableauX presenting in vivid form
American history; moving picture
films like Uncle Sam at Work" will
be shown. Among the things the
speakers on this occasion will empha-
size are: That every foreign-speaking
person in America should learn Eng
lish by attending the public schools,
because the English language is the
master key to American opportunities
and life, and the first step to real citi-
zenship; that every illiterate immi-
grant should learn to read and write,
SO that he can read American newspa-
pers and attend personally to his
business matters; and that adults and
children, native and foreign born be
given civic training in both evening
and day schools, so that every one in
our country will understand the func-
tions of our government. the prin-
ciples of democracy and for what
America stands.
