Duties of Foreign Born Citizens

Many foreign bern pesons secured
their first papers in the early days
and filed upon homestead and later
paid the government a certain price
per acre for this land and secured a
United States patent, or deed, instead
of residing upon the land the full
length of time and then proving up.
A good many Of these parties are la
boring under the impression that be-
cause they obtained this United States
patent they are naturalized citizens,
but such is not the case, unless they
have both their first and second pa
pers.
All persons holding first papers
more than seven years old, who have
not obtained their second papers,
should take out their first papers
again as these papers are invalid for
all purposes, whether taken out under
the old or new law.
The Naturalization department has
notified the Clerk of the District
Court that first papers and petitions
for second can be taken out by sub
jects of those countries against whom
the United States has declared war,
but that the final disposition of their
petition will be continued over until
after the close of the var or until a
further ruling of the department.
However, it is well for parties holding
first papers, which are not less than
two years old, or more than seven
years, to make their petition for Sec
ond papers in order to keep alive
their first papes.
The Sauk Centre herald. (Sauk Centre, Stearns County, Minn.) 1886-current, 1918-03-07

Numerous inquiries are received
daily by Henry ]. Limperich. Clerk OF
District Court, as to the status of the
citizenship of various parties. A care
full persual of the following, which
has been prepared by Mr.. Limperich,
will assist the public generally in de-
ternlining the status of their citizen
ship:
Foreign born children, whose father
or mother took out final papers, be-
fore the children reached the age of
twenty-one years, are citizens and
can prove their citizenship through
their parents papers or certified copy
of the same, which can be obtained at
the office of the Clerk of Court of the
county wherein such papers were is
sued.
Foreign bern children who were
over twenty-one at the time of their
father or mothers naturalization, do
not become citizens, and must take
out both first and second papers.
Minor children, whose father died dur
ing their minority, and whose mother
was alien, either a resident of the
United States or coming from a for
eign country, and married native
born or naturalized citizen, before
said children became of age, also be-
come citizens and can prove their
citizenship through the original pa
pers of their step-father, or certified
copy of the same, which can be OBJ
tanned from the Clerk of the District
Court, of the county wherein the
original papers were issued.

Gen. Pershing Wants
Nine Pairs of Shoes
a Year for His Men

Gen. Pershing has requested ship
ment of 1880 pairs of shoes for each
$4,000 men monthly, which is approx
mately nine pairs of shoes per man
per year. This quantity is in excess
of actual consumption and is being
used to build up reserve for all
troops in France. When such a sup
ply is accumulated, the quantities per
men will be reduced.
The Quartermaster Generals De
partment now has on hand and due on
outstanding contracts 7,564,000 field
shoes and 7,S73,0 marching shoes. 1t
will be necessary to secure more than
a million additional shoes during the
year.

men placed in these conditions to all
outward appearances, are just as
happy as you people who go to bed
by the fire and between clean sheets,
wake up in the morning and dress in
warm room. say just as happy, l
go further and say, happier for they
are serving the good old U. S. We
don't make a lot of noise about our pa
triotism, but we are. When tears
come to a mans eyes when he sees
sold Glory that shows real feeling.
I could write for hours at stretch on
the little things that soldier has to
do, but they like it. A more happy
bunch of "boys" (some are well over
forty you won't find on the face of
the earth.
l showed your letter around this
morning to some of the men and I
want to thank you for them as it
surely helped a lot. I wish more peo-
pie at home would write to us. /
don't mean the young people, I mean
the ones that write sense and put
real feeling into their letters The men
get enough of the other kind of letters
from people. I don't mean to say all
letters are foolish but a great many
are. If you good women could get
together and write to the men of my
squad, I would appreciate it as much
and more than the men, for it shows
up my home town.
I think that this is regular sermon
but I mean it all.
! hope that all the people of old
Sank Centre are well and happy. I
wish to thank again the Red Cross for
my comfort kit and it sure was a
comfort to me.
Sincerely yours,

An interesting letter from Sgt. S.
E. Dewey has found it's way across the
Atlantic and is in the hands of the
Herald. He still likes his job.
Somewhere in France, Feb. 8.
I don't believe that I ever answered
your other letter, in fact I am sure ]
didn't. I have been so busy that !
haven't had time up until now. We
just got to what will be our quarters

We surely have been treated like
white men at all English Camps that
we stopped at. The English call their
camps Rent Camps but / swear to
goodness I don't see where the rent
comes in. They go out of their way
to be nice to US, but when we hit our
present camp we sure were a happy
bunch. Just imagine yourself long
way from home in a strange land, and
people with different customs and then
you find a small oasis as it were.
where your own kind are. Well, l
can't describe the feeling but we
nearly ate them up. Most of the men
are writing letters home and sleeping
as we have been travelling for the last
month and for the last week we
haven't had very much sleep. When
you get into bed at night, just think
of some of the poor devils where it is
cold and wet and muddy with no place
to sleep except in the mud. 1t doesn't
sound bad but we have all been
through the mill. Do we get blue and
down-hearted? should say not. The

questions until about A p. N. when We
took our little tick down to the stable
and filled it with straw. You should
have seen your little soldier boy
climbing the hill with the sack OF
straw.
Have had quite little drilling
lately. Right and left face, about
face and right and left step, ETC., are
getting rather familiar.
Am getting plenty to eat and a
good bed. Also measured up for my
uniform and will get that soon SO ]
have nothing to kick about.
Well, I'm going to ring off for now
and write you later.
