MAKING CITIZENS OF ALIENS
Excellent Work Done Through Glasses
Conducted Under Auspices OF eu-
reau of Naturalization.

Many aliens who enter The naturali-
cation courts as candidates for cltl-
zenship are much better grounded In
the knowledge of American govern
ment and institutions than the average
native Of this country. Indeed, some
aliens are able to answer questions
that the judges themselves are not
able to answer off-hand.
The reason for their excellent knowl-
edge of the American government lies
In the care taken by the citizenship
class IS, now conducted In public
schoo. ; throughout the country by the
bureau of naturalization, department
of labor, to inculcate thorough famil-
iarity with the institutions Of the land
Of their adoption. The courses given
by these classes are designed to raise
the standard of citizenship by insur-
ing a preparation adequate to meet the
requirements Of the most exacting
state laws.
Naturalization Is q somewhat COM
plicated process at best, for not only
must the alien satisfy the require
ments of the state In which he e1-
poets citizenship, but he must also
meet the demands Of the naturaliza-
ton court, which has the right to re-
ject his application, at Its own dis
erection.
The citizenship classes aim to make
the way to citizenship as easy as pos
sible for men and women who are will
ing to ft themselves for it.-Grit.

Letter from Newell Brown.
Brest, France,
May %, 1919.

May 90, 1919.
Dear Mother:
Well, I'm in France now. Got
here yesterday. You will probably
be interested in our trip so / will tell
you about it. We left New York
May LIST for the Azores. There were
four other destroyers with US. We
were out about a day and a half when
one of our men got sick. He had a
high fever. We reported it to the
chip in command and they told US to
go to Halifax, New F~oundland, and
leave him at the hospital. We turned
back and got there the next morning.
We stayed there that night and then
started for the Azores again. After
we were out a day or so another guy
got sick and before we got there four
or five had it but were we'll before we
got to the Azores. The disease only
lasted two or three days.
We caught up with the ships on an
afternoon and got in the next morn
ing. Then tho next morning we took
on oil and then left in the afternoon
for u position for the Transatlantic
flight. That was on Friday. We
got to our position the next morning.
Gee. but the sea was rough. We
were rolling and pitching all around.
| couldn't keep my breakfast down
that morning. The worst of it was
that we were out there eight days
waiting for the planes to come over.
There were four planes making the
flight, the NC-1, 2. 3 and a. The
NC 2 and 4 got over all right but the
NC-1 got lost and had to light. We
got orders at 4 o, clock in the after-
noon to go look for her. At II o'clock
that night we met an Italian or some
other ship and they had the NC-1
crew on board We had travelled
over $50 miles in that time. They
told US where the plane was. About
an hour later we met the Harding,
another destroyer, looking for the
NC-1. We looked all that night
and didn't find the plane. Before
morning there were A destrovers
looking. About 10 o'clock that morn
ing we (our ship sighted the plane
and then there was a race to see who
would get there first: We beat the
whole works there too. The Harding
was the Flag Ship. or boss, because
she was the senior ship so of course
she took upon herself the honor of
taking the plane back to the Azores
after we found it and was there first.
Then she signaled over and said we
could carry out our orders in regard
to Brest and SO we came here.
During the eight days that we were
waiting we sure had some time eat
ing. The ship was rolling all the
time and the dishes would slide from
one side of the table to the other, and
some times 90 on the deck.
] was going to finish this tonite but
we just got orders to leave here and
go out TO the Bay Of BiscaY and wait
for the finishing of the flight. The
mail is leaving the ship SO will have
to close. Besssure and write.
With love.
Newell.

conditions still were unfavorable to-
day for the naval seaplane NC-4's start
from Ponta Delgada for Lisbon. A
message announcing that the flight
would not be attempted was received
by the Navy Department from Admiral
Jackson at Ponta Delgada this morn
ing, but it caused no disappointment,
as weather forecasts had indicated a
continuation of storms in the vicinity
of the Azores.
The morning weather report from
Ponta Delgada gave little promise that
the NC-4 might get under way even
tomorrow. Continued winds, varying
from fifteen to thirty miles an hour.

French Ariutor Starts
On Ne1U Ouersea Flight
Lieut.. Roget Plans to Make
1,977-Mile Trip From Dakar,
Morocco, to Coast of Brazil

PARIS, May 24.-Lieutenant Roget,
the French aviator who in April made
nonstop fight of more than $50
miles from Lyons TO Rome, started
this morning to fly from Paris to Mo-
rocco, whence he plans to attempt a
flight across the Atlantic to Brazil,
with Dakar as starting point.
Roget made his start from here at
a. m. He was accompanied by Me-
chanician Offrey.
The total distance in land miles from
Paris to Pernambuco, the most eastern
port of Brazil, by way of Dakar, is
more than 400 miles. French avia-
tors previously have flown from Paris
to Casablanca, Morocco, a distance of
1854 miles. From Casablanca to Da-
kar is about 1000 miles. The distance
across the Atlantic, from Dakar to
Pernambuco, is 1,715 nautical miles, or
about 1877 land miles.

bottle had been picked up three miles
south of Narragansert Pier, contain

steamship.
The point indicated by the figures of
latitude and longitude as given in the
message is only about ESQ miles from
the Irish coast. 1t would be impos-
sible for a bottle to drift across the
