Looting Her Store

A daring but unsuccessful fight
was made by Miss Evelyn Bruce, Is
years old, when three 1S-year-old
boys accomplished a bold daylight

the fight, leaving 81 in the hands of
Miss Bruce and taking SIS with
them.
Mr.. and Mrs. Harry Bruce left the
store in charge of their daughter.
While she was in rear room, the
trio entered. One asked to use the

hind tine counter and stole the
money, being guarded by the third
boy, who stood by the inner door,
according to Miss Bruce. Observing

Hog prices continue lower. The

to the cause of the slump. Efforts
to keep down prices during the
present high cost of living agitation
and the break of the corn market

500,Oo0 persons in this country who still
 retain their allegiance to the land of their birth.
 There are now 17.50O.0O0 aliens in this
 country yet barely 6.Oo9,000 have become
 citizens, MT. Crist said. "Such a tre- mendous unassmiIated mass means danger, for among these millions com paratively few have any knowledge of or
 interest in American institutions.
 Ut is our duty and our necessity to
 convert this multitude into loyal Amer jean citizens. By gathering their own quarters in large industrial centers, they furnish a fertile ground for all sorts of
 propaganda detrimental to American in- | stitutions.
 The war revealed that while the great majority of Germans in this country were loyal, there were nevertheless far too many German aliens who felt only hatred for the country that has so gener- ously, received them. It is time now to act to prevent any recurrence of this ex- perience.
 Tt is the duty of American citizens who love America to seek out his friends l and acquaintances of foreign birth and to prevail upon them, if they wish to re- main here to become citizens"
