Local Delegates to War
Mothers Convention Was
Honored by Organization

THE convention in Baltimore which
started with eleven fragmentary parts
and ended in one splendid organiza-
ton, the Service Star Legion, may be
said to have been success" said
Mrs. A. w. Roach of Richmond, who
as acting vice-president of the War
Mothers Of America, presided at the
convention. Mrs. Roach arrived at her
home on North Thirteenth street,
Thursday morning.
She spoke of the name, "Service
Star Legion" adopted by the War
Mothers. The present name is to be
copyrighted Immediately, she said.
"One of the most interesting things
we did was to grant full membership
rights to the grandmothers." said Mrs
Roach.
Undoubtedly the most important
result of the convention was the anal
gamation of the IL organizations rep
resented, including the War Mothers
the Mothers Of Democracy, the Sam
my Mothers, the Gold Star Mothers
of Greater New York, the Daughters
of the Nation, the Daughters of Lib
erty and Others" Mrs. Roach observed

The Need of Americanization

One of the illuminating bits of information
picked up by the labor committee of the United
States senate in its visit to the Pittsburgh steel
not understand English.
Senator Kenyon expressed the real signif-
canoe of this fact in a statement advocating the
imperative need of legislation to promote Amer-
canization among the aliens who cannot speak,
read or write our language.
Need one wonder long why these men are
easily misled by alien agitators who maliciously
rnsrepresent our institutions and condemn our
government? Is it not clear that these men can
be influenced by pernicious propaganda and
easily induced to subscribe to bolshevist prn-
ciples?
The failure of the nation to Americanize its
aliens is reflected in the steel strike. 1t ap-
parent from the very outset that the American
workers did not want strike and were we'll sat
isfed with their working conditions.
1t also developed soon that it was the foreign
element which sought cessation of mill activities,
not to obtain an amelioraton of conditions, but
because, through some sinister influence which
subsequently, was traced to bolshevst leadership,
they really believed they would obtain control of
the mills.
A similar condition has been exposed in Gary
From the very outset of that strike American
workers wanted to return to work. The foreign
element, however, demanded that all workers
stay out The military authorities of the United
States recently have discovered that Gary was
the center of the boshevist activities in the
United States, and that the plots against the
lives of officials were hached there and the
bombs made in that city.

Richmond Pastors FAVOR
Movies to Teach GOSPEL

Adoption of the moving picture as
an aid in the teaching of the gospel
and the installation of moving picture
machines in the city churches are
favored by Richmond pastors.
The moving picture could be put
to great use in foreign missionary
work if electric power were availa BILE
and the time will come when the NOV.
ing picture camera will be a part OF
the missionary's equipment says ono
prominent pastor.
All the local pastors are in favor
of the better class of moving pictures
as they consider the pictures enlight
ening spiritually and intellectually.
Churches in the larger cities of the
country are taking up the moving pic
ture and in several Of them moving
pictures are part OF the evening
services.

When asked if the war had brought

Sere the Days Of BUSINESS

Warfare was a spectacular, as well

antiquity. Plain khaki and sim

never have suited the ancient Persian
soldiers.
Silver affairs, surrounded by priests
chanting sacred songs, were first In
line of march. They were followed by
1856 youths dressed In purple garments.
A chariot dedicated to the sun was
drawn by snow-white horses, led by
grooms wearing white garments and
carrying golden wands.
Ten chariots embossed with gold
and silver preceded the cavalry of IL
nations, dressed in their various cos
tunes and carrying their peculiar
arms.
Then came the Persian immortals
10000 In number, wearing golden
chains and robes embroidered with
gold and glltterihg with precious
stones. Following at short distance
came $1,000 mobiles, relatives OF the
king, dressed in garments wonderfully
wrought.
A company of spearmen preceded
the king. He rode in an imposing char

troops brought up the rear. ~
When a king In those days looked
upon his troops and saw their strength
and splendor, 1t is no wonder he felt
proud and wished to lead them to bat
tie. Such an army was not meant to
stay at home, where only their cOun-
trymen could see them. Other ma
lions would know how powerful king
he was. So he and his followers
marched away, and wars for conquest
began.
Peoples were forced to give them
selves up to life Of war, either for
conquest or defense, and the great
highways, which peace would have ded-
icated to commerce and prosperity, be-
came military roads over which war
took its cruel way.

The good citizen owns his home
the average man of family should own
his home. The man who earns good
wages should invest in a lot or NUM-
cipal or government bona. 1t
is absolutely essential for the Amer
lean citizen to own either home or
place his surplus cash in state, federal
or municipal bonds. This procedure,
i'll the opinion of Immigrant Inspector
Marlin Turnbull would bring about a
grand patriotic citizenship. The indi-
yiaual who invests in real estate has
confidence in the institutions of his
country; he realizes his responsibility
10 his fellow citizens; he exercises wis
dom in his commercial and political
dealings and preferences and he is a
safe example for emulation. Pasca
gclla, which is growing rapidly as an
industrial location, needs permanent
population to develop the natural ad
vantaGes of soil and climate. A home
blessed by the refreshing breezes of
the Gulf, heaven given and free, is suf
