ALIEN ENEMY STAMPEDE.

THE bureau of naturalization re.
ports that alien enemies are eager
to swear allegiance to our flag. Nearly
100000 Germans and Austrians have
made application for citizenship with
IN the last few months. The move.
ment has been most marked since fine
great allied offensive began
Admitting these aliens to citizen
ship Is matter of some difficulty,
The usual naturalization procedure is
barred to them; but by an act of
Congress passed last May they may
be admitted to citizenship by order
OF the President, If their loyalty is
proved Every applicant is now made
a subject OF thorough investigation
After the fall election those whose
records have stood inspection will
probably be accepted,
Two explanations are suggested for
The present desire Of SO many of
these alien enemies to cast their for
tunes definitely with the United
States. One is that they have learned
to understood and sympathize with
American ideals. The other Is that
they are now convinced that the Ger
man Austrian cause is doomed, and
are shrewdly DESERVING sinking ship.
Perhaps both of these reasons have
a. good deal TO do with determining
the choice Of most of the applicants.
In any event, they are to be CON
sratulated on their decision and vel.
coined to American fellowship If they
bring Nhoie.ncdrted allegiance.

Self Rnstinu Pot.

The old fashioned smooth iron pot
has recently been brought up to date
and put in the steam cooker class by
the attachment of a pressure handle
or rod on its cover. There are two
safety devices for reducig the steam
pressure if it becomes too great. The
tension spring in the plunger exerts
a pressure equal to twenty pounds
in weight on the bottom in the cen
ter of the lid. Under the rods pres
sure the lid fits perfectly and so acts
as a condenser. thus, basting the meat
automatically.
This cooker Is made both round
and oblong in shape, with loose
gate in the bottom. 1t is especially
adapted for pot roasts and baked po-
tatoes. The latest model is made Of
the best quality of aluminium, and Is
designed so that when the cover and
pressure handle are removed the
contents of the pot may be served In
the receptacle itself, as 1t is attract
i've enough to go to the table.
