 However, Jabez Montow, who watch Cd the green substance for four weeks invited the village president, H. F. 0h0tts, and two others to accompanv him to the house for an tnvestiration
 The men accepted the invitation A ladder was obtained from the en- gine house, placed In an automobile truck and the men went to the honsa There they found two stalks of corr feet in length, with two large and Well-formed ears of corn on each stalk protruding from the roof. The men entered the garret of the house and found the hill of corn in a mass of soot and dirt, an accumulation of years
 The stalks were removed and brought to town. They measured 9 feet in length, feet being beneath the roof. The men each took an ear of corn, which is of the red varietv for seed next season.

AmericanizatiOn In Bridgeport

 Americanizadon in its broad sense is for alL It is for foreisn born ana native born alike, for 1t is the task of making each American to uu- deTstand and 10 keep in his heart the ideals of America, and more than these, to live these ideals in his daily life
 The chief of these ideals are: Ihe giving to every man equality before the law.
 The giving to every man an equal Opportunity under the law. and that means tho same chance every other man has.
 The guaranteeing to him the right to have his thought, to speak his thought. and 10 worship according to the dictate of his own conscience.
 America aims 10 guarantee to every one, foreign born and native born alike, the right to enjoy life. liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
 One thing ts true. The foreign born can never be upon an equality with the native born until he knows the English language and can speak it. and read it. That is a great reason | why we arc trying to have every for l eign born in this country know the | English language. We want him to | have an equal chance with the native born.
