DOES THE MELTING POT MELT.

DOES THE MELTING POT MELT.
After the war we must find some
better means for Americanizing ali
ems. The time has gone by when it is
desirable to have great colonies of
.non-English speaking people, reading
newspapers in foreign tongue, and
gaining no conception of what Ameri-
ca life means.
Our people have always wanted
these foreign colonies Americanized
but they were never willing to pay
the bills. A thorough system of night
schools would do lot towards it, but
money for this purpose comes hard
from the taxpayers.
For every thousand dollars we
spend to- educate our children we put
out but one to educate the alien. Yet
his vote counts just as much as your
child's. If we are forced to go to war
we need his whole hearted support.
Not merely must we provide such in
struction. but the alien who expects
to get the advantages of our country
must be willing to fit himself to- live
in it.

MEN OF DRAFT AGE CAN
ENLIST IN THE u. S. NAVY
Memphis, Tenn, May 10, 1918.

Memphis, Tenn, May 10, 1918.
The naval reserve force will en-
roll in unlimited number men of the
draft age if they can secure state
ment from their local board stating
that they are not needed for the cur
rent quota, and can pass the navy
physical examination.
Men that enlist at this station will
be sent to the main station at Nash
vile, Tenn, Cor the final examina-
ton if they pass at the main sta
ton, and will be enlisted and sent
home to await orders, then ordered
out, and they will go to New Orleans,
La, for training after finishing their
training they will go aboard some
ship. The duty for the reserve is
the same as the regular navy.
We are enlisting negroes as wait
ers and cooks. They will be sent to
New York for training, and will not
have to be sent home to await orders.
The navy recruiting station at Mem
phis, Tenn, has been moved from
Union and Main streets, and is now
properly safeguarded from waste; our
man power has also passed into the
hands of the expert, been classified
and directed into the proper chan
mel for winning the war. 1t is no
less important to keep the will organ
lied so that the morale of our ma
ton will remain the same. The most
effective way to accomplish this is by
keeping the people informed of the
truth, the great necessity of winning
and the business of the cause.
The most effective organization for
this purpose is the Four Minute Men.
The committee on public informa-
ton today has some 10000 volunteer
speakers known as four minute men.
The original purpose was to have
them appear--as they did-in movies
and carry the authoritative messages
of the government. They give the
reasons for the war and present the
latest facts given out from Washing
ton.
This organization has proven so eff
fective that it has been decided to
broaden the scope Of their work and
carry the four-minute messages into
the rural sections-at church services,
Sunday schools, schools, mass meet
ings, political gatherings, fairs, public
sales, and at any ready-made meet
ing that a four-minute man can
reach.
In speaking of this organization,
the president said that it was through
them that ''the great body of the peo-
pie were aroused, informed and IN
spired to action"
The president has issued a procla-
nation designating the week begin
ming May 10Th as cred Cross Week,
when actual solicitations for this no.
bic work will begin. The four-minute
men have been instructed~to begin
speaking for this cause on May 18th,

one week in advance of soliciting sub
scriptions.
These 10000 speakers are reaching
almost every town in the country,
but in some of the rural districts
there are few, if any, speakers. Every
community would welcome these short
speeches in the theaters, and longer
speeches elsewhere if they could see
how the work of the four-minute
men progresses from week to week
as each topic sent out by the gov
eminent is discussed by them; how
they help to clear up situations and
bow they help to drive home the facts.
The chairman of the Four Minute
Men Of Upton county is M. A, Walk
err, of Covington.
We want every community in this
county well represented by four-min-
ute speakers. If you have no four
minute speakers in your neighborhood
and would like to have them address
you on government topics at local
gatherings, communicate with the To-
cal chairman and he will supply you.
The four-minute men will aid in
keeping the spirit of the people
aroused by keeping them informed
and inspiring them to action. The
will to win will grow stronger.
Communicate with Maj. Walker,
county chairman, and help him to
organize your community
