DON'T STOP HALF WAY

We beg to call attention to the long
list of incomplete naturalizations in
another column. 1t shows very
slack and recreant spirit bordering on
disloyalty, on the part of these candi-
dates for citizenship, that they do not
come forward and complete their
naturalization. They should do so at
once and thus remove any question
as to their loyalty.

Spot of Historic Interest.
The spot where what is left of the
Noble Rose stands is intimately as
ISOLATED with Belgian history. The
ruins of the inn, situated on the Rue
du Nord, face the apse of the histor-
ical church of Sainte Walburge. The
inn bore upon its gable the date 1875,
but It's foundations belonged to what
was evidently a palace dating back to
the thirteenth or fourteenth century.
The general headquarters of the Bel
gian army were fixed there before the
battle of User, October Ia, 1914, re-
manning until January %, 1915. Dur

Ben S. Allen, chief Of the education
al division of the United States food
administration had been talking to
them about the necessity for saving
food and was painting a picture of the
war conditions in Belgium which he
had several times visited. He told
about visit to the Hotel Noble Rose
when Fumes was the headquarters of
the Belgian army, just after the Bel
gians had stopped the onrush of Ger
mans along the User. Those present
were So much impressed with Mr.. AL
lens description and with what seem
ed an opportunity for gracefully ex-
pressing the sympathy of American
hotel men with Belgium and their will
to help, that dozen men in various
parts of the room simultaneously
leaped to their feet and proposed the
restoration of tie Noble Rose as "a
gift from the hotel men of America.
This offer was transmitted ia
Baron de Cartier In Washington and
shortly afterward word was received
that the Belgian government at Havre
had designated the Noble Rose as a
historical monument. 1t thus becomes
