SMALL TWINS GOOD T.YPISTS.
Five year. old Children Profit by Teach

Spokane, Wash.-Robert and Grace
Rice, fve-year-old twin children of E.
l. Rice, are shorthand writer's for
whom their father claims a speed of a
hundred words a minute, considered a
remarkable record for children.
The children are speed typists and
are able to better the performances of
many business college graduates, They
are home taught and for the last three
months have had regularly two lessons
a day, the practice periods being at
first of very short duration, but in
creasing in length until now each les
son lasts fifteen minutes. Their tipping
has made them excellent spoilers, and
shorthand has led to fair proficiency in
drafting.

ton is 81; for a declaration of inten-

ton. 81.
Applications for citizenship, as we'll
as declarations Of intention, may be
filed at any time during the office
hours of the clerk of the court. Many
aliens labor under the impression
that they must file their papers dur
ing the sessions of the court. This
is not the case, however. 1t is better
to apply when the court is not in
session, as the clerk will then have
more time to assist candidates. No
time will be lost In pursuing this
course as ninety days must elapse
in any case following the filing Of a
petition before it can be heard, this
period being given the government
in which to investigate the character,
ETC., Of the candidate, and his wit
neSses.
The matter Of citizenship is one
OF increasing Importance, particular
ly where those of foreign birth are
concerned. For instance, in case OF
war between the United States and
foreign power, the subjects Of that
country resident in the United States
at the time, would under our laws
be debarred from naturalization dur
ing the period Of such war. Again,
property, as we'll as civic rights de-
pend very often wholly on the citi-
zenship status OF the person con-
cerned. The children Of those who
are foreign-born. are especially con-
cerned, as the naturalization of the
parent confers citizenship upon his
minor children who may at the time
be dwelling within the United States.
An American woman who marries an
alien thereby becomes an alien, and
she is dependent upon her husband
becoming naturalized to regain her
citizenship. The laws of the United
States, in the protection accorded
by them to the individual. and his
property, recognize no distinction be-
tween the native and the naturalized.
Declarations of Intention however,
do not confer the benefi and priv
ileges Of citizenship, and accord
their holders~little voice in the affairs
Of this state.

execution of such declaration. This
fact is apparently not generally
known among those who in this coun-
ty have filed their declarations of in
tention, as already a very consider
able number Of such papers have

this limitation. 1t will accordingly
be necessary for the holders Of such
papers to file new declarations, if
they desire citizenship, and delay at

county, though still good, will never

short time, through the limitation
placed by law on the life of such

ercise their privilege Of petitioning
for citizenship thereon. This matter,
being one Of great Importance to the
individuals concerned, should re-
