Rev. r. B. McAllister VIII Tell About
so Called "Wops" and "Bo.
h;,Iks" Sunday
| Night.
PROBLEM IS BEFORE US
Whether America viii be Able to A..
Simulate This Foreign Ele-
ment 10 to be
Discussed.

Among the many problems OF war
there is one, the aftermath. which Is
attracting the attention of the people
of America most vitality. 1t has been
noted that after any time Of depression
in Europe there has been CORES
pondingly large influx of foreigners to
America This was the cause Of the
Irish, Swede, German and italian I'm
migrations. The early citizens Of our
nation welcomed this carrier migration.
If not at the time. soon after, for 1t
was found they contributed many ex-
cellent qualities to the blood of the
American people Now, however,
there will be great hordes Moving in
from southern Europe and Russia and
the question now is, will we be able
to assimilate them America sees in
this problem of dying or digesting.
Now, since congress has refused to
put up any fences, what will it mean!
Already in many places in the east
towns and cities are saturated with
the foreign element In the mines
they have crowded out the American
miner. In the factory they are now
the great element in many places. II
one were to stem into many large
eastern town they would scarcely real
lie thav were standing on American
soil The streets are crowded with
them. the motion picture shows
swarming with them, stores owned by
them, banks run by them; in fact
they seem to control great many OF
the activities in these cities. Nor is
this true in the smaller places. but the
great cities. such as New York, Bos-
ton and Philadelphia ara now becom-
ing largely cities of the foreigner. 1t
will not be long until they will swarm
over Iowa and then we too will be con-
fronted with the great problem OF
assimilation or death.
Rev. F. B. McAllister was born in
a small city near Scranton. Penn.
that has for its population ninety per
cent foreigners. He has seen them In
their home life. their weddings. play
! ed their games. attended their socia
functions. worked with them for years
] alter when he came to the city OF
Rochester. that now has population
alone Of $4,000 italians. because OF
his experience with and among them
was employed by the CITY to assist
with it's foreign problem. While there
he personally taught scores of them
the English LANGUAGE.
Thus b., has come to know them as
well as any American could. On Sun
dav niaht. he will not only deal with
the vast problem and its solution, tell
ing of the possibilities and dangers of
tha foreign element and their chill
d-en. but will toll incidents OF per-
soral experience about their meals,
.hei- weddings. their games. supersti-
tons their work. and their morals.
Til Sc experiences are both amusing
and yet very serious in many aspects.

A CHALLENGE to Roosevelt

An open letter that is well worth
the attention of peace loving people
every where has been written to Theo-
dore Roosevelt by eight Philadelphia
professional men, representing different
professions. The letter follows:
''The vigor and sincerity with which
you have recently pressed the cause of
military preparedness and have con-
demned paci6sts as molly coddles, de-
mand reply.
''In branding the motives of the pa
cifists as cowardly you are less gen
erous than the pacifists themselves.
They concede your sincerity. They
too, uphold the ideal of heroism and
sef-sacrifce which endure suffering
and meet death for righteousness, JUS
tice and honor. But they condemn the
method of warfare as means to at
tain these ends, because the act that
renders warfare effective is not the
sacrifice of ones self but the killing
or manning of others; because the war
spirit with its inevitable elements of
| ill-will, revenge and hate can not fur
Their the highest ideals of our Christian
civilization. On the other hand the
true pacifists do not advocate mere
passive non-resistance. They sound
the call to the heroism of an aggressive
self-sacrifcing, unrelenting goodwill
which will endure suffering or death
not to kill or MAIN an enemy but to
overcome with good the evil that is in
him. The method is not based upon
mere practical sentiment. 1t has
proved surpremely effective.
fJesus of Nazareth founded a king
dom upon love, and rather than main
tain His cause by violence died forgiv-
ing his enemies, In the uplift of man
kind, what soldier has surpassed Him
Seventeen centuries ago the spirit Of
the early Christians was victorious de-
spite the cruelest persecution by the
Roman EMPIRE.
s'The great need of our country to-
day is leaders to fire Us with the same
victorious spirit, to inspire US with the
high heroism. Young men and womer
will give their lives for this servica a!
courageously as ever men went forth
to battle. They await the summons from
men of vision and influence in our ma
ton 1t may lead to marterdom buf
it will lead to victory. Car ital

Inform the Editor

One of the most difficult of the
editors jobs is to get facts about births,
marriages and deaths. People seem
think he ought to know these things
by: intuition. If not that, the birth,
marriage or death is of such import
ance in the immediate family that it is
presumed the editor will be informed
by some wireless, or just grow into The
formation. Then when the paper comes
out, and no mention is made of the
event, the editor is blamed for not rum
ming a good news paper or not getting
all the news. Remember there are
good many people in this county. If
the editor knew each one Of them by
name their family history and the
chief events in the lives of every indi-
vidual, he wouldn't be an editor. He'd
be a qemi-god, resting his feet on a
cloud and slipping anbrosia instead of
inhabiting a broken down Office chair
snd wondering where the money for
the next white paper bill is coming
from. The life of the average news
paper man is gay one. Gathering
news is second nature to him, ike pic
ing his teeth with an Office pen and Gus
sing the Office towel. Just the same
there's a limit to his omniscience. Last
week, we thoughti of million. eight
hundred and forty nine thousand three

We're anxious for news for the paper,
and it won't put you out much to drop
