MANY FOREIGNERS
IN THIS COUNTRY
One in Every Third, DR.. Becht
Says, in Urging Better Con-
ditions For Them

"Americanizing America" was the
=bject of an interesting talk before
the University Club at the fourth of
the series of Club nights on Saturday
evening, by DR.. ]. George Becht, ex-
eGutive secretary of the State Board
OSsEducation.
In his discussion of this subject,
the speaker dwelt strongly on the
present day need for amalgamating
the foreigners with Americanism by
taking what is best of their literature,
art, customs and incorporating them
with this country's. To raise the for
eign born and the children of foreign
born in this country to the high stand
ards of American citizenship and to
give them some better place to live
than in shanties, is in DIR. Bechts
mind is the important task before us
Statistics were employed to show
the large percentage of foreign popu-
1ation in this country. Theer are more
Germans, for instance, according to
figures. in New York city than in any
other city outside of BerlinS there
there are more Jews than in any city
outside Petrograd. more Italians than
in any city outside Rome, and if all
our 100. 100000 and more people were
lined up, every third man would be
OF foreign birth or the son of for
eigner.

Queen LiIiuokalaRi'S Condition
Grave

As Liliuokalan former ruler of Hawaii, lies III
the shado5 of death throughout the territory there
is felt sadness and regret. None in Hawaii but
wishes for her the best that life can hold. The last
monarch of her race in the declining years of life
had revealed gentleness and sweetness of charac-
ter which endeared her to many that in earli2r times
had been her political opponents. Hope is felt that
the aged queen will rally from her sinking spells
and again to such measure of health as is pos
sible for one of her advanced years and enfeebed
physique. As this is written it is not certain that
she will survive the day Yet her vitality lends some
confidence to the contrary.

ANAL PLAYERS WIN FAVOR With
THREE PLAYLETS, WELL HANDLED

youthful, but who is really going into
wearying middle age, and THE Won,
der Hat" fantasy bringing in such
familiar figures of the domino and
grease paint as Harlequin, Columbine,
Pierrot, Margot and Punchinello.
One merit of the playlets was their
brevity. Amateur playing, even with
plenty Of stage facilities and years of
training, is often unequal to the task
of three or fourract play. Inevitably
one or two of the acts will drag hor-
ribly. There was no drag last night,
and most of the audience who are
familiar with the attempts to put on
longer offerings were pleased to find
three separate plots and sets of char.
acters, giving the effect of rapid
movement throughout.
The small Lanai stage was nicely
handled in scenic and lighting effects.
and as the casts we're small also its
dimensions proved sufficient. The
-costuming was notably effective.
