Ii has been with this thought that have
sought to learn from those who spoke for Ger

nations of the world that the German leaders
were seeking. They have answered, answered

we had declared would be our own in the final

not mistake what they have done--n Russia, IN
Finland, in the Ukraine. in Rumania. The real
test OF their justice and fair play has come.
From this We may judge the rest. They are

The shipper should he careful, IL
the rabbits are not packed in ice. not
should the layers in the package be

such layers of packing prevent proper
ventilation. No matter what method
OF packing is used. the intestines
should be drawn from rabbits as soon

BOY SCOUTS ARE ASKED
TO CUT OUT MECHANICS.

One branch OF the government at
Washington has Instituted a campaign
10 discourage the use of nicknames
for representatives of our allies
Boys are the ones who most of all
perpetuate the use of undiEnified ap-
pellations, and the Boy Scouts of
America are invited to put their ac-
tive ban on them.
The use of nicknames and names
of derision as applied to the foreign
born In America Is a considerable
obstacle in the way OF America liza
ton" says Commissioner Of Educa-
ton r. r. Claxton in letter to Chief
Scout Executive James +. West
$50 long as the foreign born per-
son feels that we do not respect him,
he does not want to join America,
learn English or become citizen.
With the help of the Boy Scouts of
America we believe. the use of such
nicknames can be eliminated to a
very large extent"
The bureau believes that the Boy
Scouts. who have pledged thenpselves
to be helpful, friendly, courteous and
kind, will be glad to adopt this Code
of Honorable Names:
My name for every true man In
these United States will be the honor
able name OF American"
My reference to all new Ameri-
cans" born in other lands shall never
be dishonored by siurs, nicknames or
hyphens.
My purpose shall be to discourage
in the native-born the love for titles,
to help every immigrant to forget his
hyphen and be proud OF tho name
American and to stamp out the use
OF such nicknames as words of de-
rision for the foreign born.
We pledge our service never to use,
and to discourage everywhere, the use
Of such words as Dago, Dutchy.

wat. Hunky, Hike, Mick. Paddy,
