1t was an expectant and happy
bunch OF Riddles who enjoyed the

TO TEACH CITIZENSHIP.
Bureau Of Naturalization Urges Glasses
For Foreigners.


In order that foreigners who make
application for citizenship may have
some idea Of what their duties, rights.
and privileges as citizens Of the United
States consist, Il IL probable that
night classes for these foreigners will
be organized in the city this winter in
connection with the public schools.
The bureau OF naturalization OF the
department Of labor at Washington has
furnished Superintendent Palmer Of
the schools, with list Of about
twenty five foreigners in this city who
have signifled their intention of be-
coming citizens. An agent of the de-
partment was here recently, and re-
quested Mr.. Palmer and Secretary
Johnson, of the Marshalltown Club, to
endeavor to organize classes for these
men and their wives. in order that they
might be taught something OF the gov
eminent to which they were to pledge
allegiance.
Heretofore night classes have been
held for foreigners. but the teaching Of
English was given special attention.
According to the government agent
these men and women pick up English
quickly enough, but it is the principles
Of citizenship, form Of government,
right to vote and how, and other mat
tiers of this nature that they need to
De taught. Plans are now under way
for the organization Of such classes,
and definite announcement as to when
and where they will be started is to

FIRE PREVENTION DAY.
viii % Observed in Schools Monday
Chief Anderson Has Word.

VI
Monday, Oct. 3. which has been des-
ignated by Governor Clarke as fire pre-
vention day. will be observed in the
public schools. Teachers will talk to
the children on the dangers OF fires
and what can he done to lessen de-
struction Of lives and property. Facts
dealing with fires. and how they could
have been avoided, will be presented
from pamphlet prepared by State
Fire Marshal O. O. Roe.
nj anticipation Of the observance
thrpout the state of fire prevention day
Chief A. T. Anderson. of the local fire
department, has addressed the follow
ing communication to the Times-Re-
publican:
Editor Times- Republican,: The pre-
ventive fireman Is not so spectacular a
figure as the old fashioned fire fight
err, but he is more useful to the COM
munity. Just as science Is giving
itself to the task Of preventing sick
ness and plague, so the main work of
the modern fire department should be
in removing the conditions that make
fires probable.
New York and all other progressive
American cities already have the pro-
lection that comes from the preventive
flremen. whose daily inspection re-
duces the fire hazard. and who preach
the gospel of fire prevention wherever
they go. AS 90 per cent of our fires
are preventable, the field of prevention
is practically unlimited.
THE Safety First Federation made
it's contribution to the movement a
year ago by setting aside Oct. as fire
prevention day. Last year twenty-nine
governors issued proclamations calling
attention to the terrific fire loss Of 5000
lives and $25,o00.0o0 annually Thou
sands of ministers spoke of it from
their pulpits. Sunday, Oct. 8, will be
observed for the same purpose this
year. We have many celebrations Of
sentimental value only, but here is a
day of practical worth in saving thou
| sands of lives and millions OF dollars
worth Of property. Every church, Sun
day school, and home should cooperate
in calling the attention of the people,
adults as well as children. to the num-
berless little ways in which fire may
be avoided. A. r. Anderson,
"Chief Fire Department.

RICH COST OF LIVING Is

He admitted wages were not fully
up to prices. but hopes for altered

The high cost Of living Is crea-
