the Fife and Drum Corps of Bruns-

The United States circuit court at
Grafton, w. Va, has rendered a decision
that time spent in the service OF the
native country after the taking out OF
"6rst papers, for American citizenship
does not count and that after performing
that service the applicant must begin all
over again should he still desire to be-
come citizen of the United States
That is reasonable decision, because
the applicant, after taking out his first
papers, is really an American citizen in
making and is, therefore, in duty bound
to give his full allegiance to the country
which he proposes to serve. In other
words, he drops the hyphen when he
makes formal application for citizenship
of the United States. Some of our inn
migrants, however, seem to have forgot
ten that.
