IAN AMERICAN COMMENCEMENT NIGHT"

yHAT happened Wednesday evening at Public School No. 1876
w in the Brownsville district of Brooklyn, when three evening
schools celebrated naturalization night by starting more
than one hundred men and women, native and foreign born, on the
road TO full American citizenship, WAS OF a sort to furnish inspiration
and example to the entire country.
81 think this is the first time in the history Of the public
schools" declared County Clerk William +. Kelly Of Kings, who took
care OF the official part of the ceremonies, chat such a sight as this
has been seen-more than a hundred pupils of the evening schools
receiving their first papers. This might well be called al American
commencement night
This spring should see many such commencement nights in
New York.
Now Is the time to make Americans. School buildings during their
idle hours can be devoted 10 n better purpose. School authorities n
teachers can apply their patriotic energies to no more practical end.
The Evening Worlds Americnnization Forum has been fortunate
enough to have the support and cooperation OF the Superintendent
OF the city's evening schools, Henry L. jenkins, and also OF tho
school principals who helped TO make the AUGMENTATION rallies
held in seventy public schools last Wednesday night one of the most
impressive demonstrations the city has seen.
my office" County Clerk Kelly gives notice, Stands ready at
all times to help The Evening World and the principals o. the schools
in promoting Amercanism"
II only all public officials, including members Of school boards
will show this sput, the Amcricanzation movement can Immediately
become one Of the most powerful forces that has ever been eIerted
for the national good.
Each succeeding week in this city should see moro Amcricanha
ton nights-moro distributing Of certificates of Amorcanism in the
shape Of first citizenship papers.
The process Of naturalization In the United States ought to be mad
something other than that which II has been "A dull tedious business tina
depreSSes rather than inspires the wOuld.be citizen
The privilege Of American citizenship Is great enough to be con
terred with ceremony and received with pride.
The AUGMENTATION Forum brings the forcign-born togctho
to seek citizenship as a coveted and Indispensable degree for wh2
there is a diploma long step forward in teaching the dignity an
