Two Weeks Yet Left in
Which to Win $2O0Pri
Very Little Choice Between First and Sec
ond Grand Prizes Except the Honor of
Being First Grand Prize Winner

Things are beginning to liven up
little in The Herald's "All-Prize"
competition, and well they should.
Double votes, $500 Extra Prize money.
and a brand new five passenger 1917
Hupmobile touring car that cost The
Herald sl.420 to replace the $1,000 Ell
gin, should be enough to arouse even
those members still in the 1000 class.
The extra value alone makes the
second grand prize almost on a par
in price alone with the Mitchell tour
ing car, the first grand prize. So
it matters very little whether you
win the $3.50 Mitchell or the s,420
Hupmobile, you get just as good a
car as can be bought for the money.
II you fail to have quite enough
votes to win the Hupmobile, who
would turn down a 1866 Saxon "Six"
and there is still one more car, the
$3.50 classy five-passenger Crow Elk
hart, which goes to the member who
has the fourth largest number Of

OF course, any member will be sat
isfied with any one of these fine au-

sides a car to win. 1t is supreme VIC

trified a great nonsectarian mass
meeting yesterday afternoon on the

that I'VE are enlisted-if need be-
ten million strong to put a stop to
the work of these mad dogs of the

Bishop Kinsolving. who was intro
duced by Secretary of the Navy Dam
iels. referred to President Wilson
climbing day by day to the fore
most place in all the world-if he has
not already reached it."
We are fighting against Sisera."
the speaker declared, ito that end
we are enlisted-ten million men II
need be. Neither England or France
has caused US to enter the war. We
are fighting as freemen in defense OF
our God-given rights. and We will
continue to fight until victory perches
upon our banners, until the world is
a decent place for people TO live In.

WOULD AMERICANIzE

Third Campaign of Education Is
Launched by Interior Department.

War Americanization Is a significant
feature of the third America First
campaign announced Yesterday by the
Department of the Interior. Bureau
of Education. This unique plan is
already being worked out in New
York City by an official of the ma
tional committee of one hundred,
which is associated with the bureau
as advisory council on Americaniza-
ton. In that city the appeal for war
Americanization met with such an
enthusiastic response that upon the
suggestion of the mayors defense
committee, the Board of Education
appropriated $4,000 to carry out the
plan.
The aim of the third campaign will
be directed toward stimulating the
acquisition of the English language
by all immigrants, and toward IN
spring a genuine allegiance to the
United States on the part of all
citizens. The bureau will again be
assisted in the campaign by the ma
tional committee Of one hundred, ap-
pointed last year by the Commissioner
of Education to assist bureau officials
in all matters pertaining to Ameri-
canization. To render effective aid,
the committee has opened headquar-
ters in Washington from which it is
establishing contact with national or
ganizations and officials.
Official records show that ap-
proximately 100000 foreign-born
whites residing in the United States
do not speak English. Only a small
number of these have attended even
ing school to learn the language.
Concerted effort will be put forth to
induce these immigrants to learn
English and acquire a knowledge of
the government, institutions and ideals
of the United States.

Surgeon General in Boston. New York.
Philadelphia, Baltimore. Washington,
Buffalo. Cincinnati. Chicago, St Paul.
Seattle. San Francisco. Los Angeles,

used for the return of wounded SOL
diers, either to the firing line or to
useful positions in civil life. The
Boston, New York. Washington and
Chicago hospitals will be built first
and each will contain 500 beds, with
provision to enlarge them to 1000.
In connection with these hospitals,
Gen. Gorgas announces that work
shops will be maintained. and that ar
rangements will be made with pri-
vately owned factories where men
who are MANNED in battle can be
taught a useful trade. 1t is believed
that by this means many wounded
men can be made more useful after
their military service than they were
before.
Men who can be returned to the
firing line will not be returned to the
United States except when their con-
valescent period will extend over a
number of weeks.
The hospitals will be under the d.
rection Of the orthopedic surgery d.
