PULLMAN BOOTBIACk
4 REAL PATRIOT

Aristedes Gusphionos, better known
as Artist, the popular Greek boot
black who for several months has
had his stand at the Acme barber
shop, is a patriot, and his example
could well be followed by some of
the people of our own country.
Artist was called before the exemp-
ton board with the last 800 men who
were exam ned. He could have
claimed and been granted exemption
because of the fact that he is an
alien, but he chose to waive the ex-
emption privilege and fight for the
colors of the nation of his adoption
despite the fact that he has not yet
been naturalized. Further proof OF
his loyalty and patriotism came when
he announced to the board that he is
ready TO go at once, and desires to be
numbered with the next contingent
sent TO training quarters. The young
man, although OF foreign birth and a
foreign subject, has proved his right
to be classed with the highest type OF
American citizenship and his many
Pullman friends extend congratula-
lions and well wishes.
