There are some born abroad who
have come to this land for a greater
freedom and broader opportunities and
have sought and received the privi-
leges Of American citizenship who are
swayed by dislike for some ally or by
the sympathies Of German kinship and
fail to see that the time has come for
them to make good the obligations Of
their sworn oaths Of naturalization.
This Ii the oath that the applicant
for citizenship makes:
That he will support the COnstitu-
ton Of the United States and that he
absolutely and entirely renounces all
allegiance and fidelity to any foreign
prince, pOtentate or sovereignty; that
he will support and defend the COnsti-
tuition and laws Of the United States
against all enemies, foreign and DO
nestle. and bear true faith and ale
glance to the same.
"False to Their Oaths."
Al these naturalixed citizens who
are taking part In obstruction to our
government in the conduct Of the war
are false to their Oaths, are fOrfeiting
their rights Of citizenship, are repudi.

reQuiting BY evil the good that has
been done them In the generous and
unstinted hospitality with which the
people Of the United States have well
coined them to the liberty and the Op-
pOrtunities Of this free land We must
believe that In many cases this Is done
because of failure to understand what

MESSENGERS OF Death.

There are about 200 separate and
distinct kinds of shells fired from Ger
man guns, and each and every one Of
them has been given at least one nick
name by the Tommies, according to
London Tit-Bits. Some Of them have
been given several.
The biggest kind of high explosive,
shells, for instance, are known indif-
ferently as DIRTY Dicks Jack
Johnsons," Goal Boxes *'F1ower
Pots" "Crumps." BLACK Peters" or
"Whistling Willies."
The smaller kind are "Blaek Ma
rias'' or "Woolly Bears" according to
whether the smoke they emit when
bursting is black, or white with a. vel
l0wish tinge.N
High explosive shrapnel and trench
mortar shells are respectively "whizz-
bangs" and "pip-squeaks, from their
habit of giving only those warnings of
their approach. "Archibalds" are anti
aircraft shells. Ordinary shrapnel
projectiles are Little Willies."
