So many attempts have been made
ID define Americanization that there
seem to be at least ffty-seven varie-
ties of the article. The movement
has gained momentum rapidly and
there is danger that pseudo-patriotic
slogans may be uttered with such ease
aid fervor that clear thinking on the
subject is not attained.
For example, Americanization has
been widely defined as a movement
TO teach English and civics to foreig-
pers so that they may be able to Sc
cure their naturalization papers. This
IL a good definition so far as it goes,
but 1t does not go far enough. For it
is clear a nan may know civics and be
able to speak English without appre-
eating American history and ideals.
Again, Americanization is
times looked upon as a patronizing
program, based on the ignorance OF
the foreigner and the superiority of
the native born There has been too
much of this attitude: 1t is expressed
in calling the Slav a "Hunkie' and the
Italian a "Dago." II AUGMENTATION
is to do its perfect work it must apply
TO native as well as foreign born. Ma
tional loyalty must begin by the high
example of public service on the part
of the American.
Under a better definition American
ization means giving the immigrant
the best America has to offer and re-
tanning for America the best in the
immigrant. II is a reciprocal and Sc
lective process in which all the people
Tust engage.
Possibly no better ideal for this
amalgamation of diverse racial ele-
nents into a common loyalty and al
legiance can be found than in the
Preamble of the Constitution. Ameri-
canization is the modern attempt "to
form a more perfect union, establish
justice, insure domestic tranquility,
provide for the common defense. pro-
mote the general welfare and secure
the blessings of liberty to ourselves
and our posterity."
It is a program as imperative today
as when our forefathers announced it.

IT HE eighth chapter of Jeremiah
and part of the sixth verse
reads: what have | doneE II
was the text of sermon preached by
Rev. J. NJ. Endicott on Sunday eve
ming, December 10Th. This was II Won
derful sermon. Should have been
heard by every person whose name is
enrolled on the church books of Allen
Chapel. What have / doneT' was the
question he wished each member of
the church to ask himself. What
have | done to build Christian char
acter or to help to make Cheyenne
Christian community?' He told the
church how slothful they had been dur
ing the calendar year in attendance
and ut prayer meetings, and how ready
TO participate i'm things that tend to
reflect on Christian character Rev.
Endicott is IL patient, faithful minister
of the gospel and is well liked by our
Christian citizens. NOn-attendance of
church members has become fad in
cheyenne. They find all the gospel
they want in their own lives. Every
one does what seems TO himself to be
right We are compelled to note most
of our church-going citizens are not
church members. If we are Christians
let's meet in the house of God and sing
his praise. Don't let the world know
what heathens we can be. Stand up
for Christ and moral uplift

Rev. G. s. Stacker, who occupies the
pulpit of the Second Baptist church in
the absence of Rev. c. o. Smith, adopt
ed for his text Matthew 26 and 3S
verse !: MY soul is exceeding sorrow
full, even unto death" Sunday evening
the little Baptist church was blessed
with Il fair sized congregation, who
appreciated Rev. Stacker's sermon.
The membership of this church are
taking an active interest in the Sunday
services as well as prayer meeting
Sunday evening service brought out
number of the people who have not
been in attendance for some time. II
is hoped the attendance will continue
to increase. Baptists are faithful to
their church. 1t is case of stand up
for the cause, attend church meetings
or to be dropped from the roll. 1t
would help the cause if dead ones in
other churches We're cut off for cause.
Our churches need boosters" for the
cause. Inactive membership are IA dis
grace to any church and a stumbling
block to others.

oATEwooD JUBILEE SINGERS
Well Received at Christian Church,
Sixteenth Avenue and Lincoln.

Eight mixed voices, under the lead
ership of Miss Dimple Gatewood, well
known musician, have formed an or
ganization TO specialize in the rendition
of the old jubilee songs and Negro spir-
ituals that have been resurrected and
now seem to be in great demand. At
a church supper recently given in hon
or of the ladies of the Christian
Church by the male members, this
group of singers contributed several
items to the program, and so pleased
was the audience that the group 'had
to respond to quite Il number of EN-
cores. The Misses Naomi Brown,
Moore, Mabel Cole; Messrs. Claude
White, Hiram Cash, Milton Wilson,
VIM. Gatewood, and Miss Gatewood,
accompanies, comprise this aggregation
of voices, the rendition coming in for
much commentator. Being members
of church choirs and pupils of vocal
teachers in the city, the result of their
training will be clearly shown in sue
ceeding events. Having volunteered
their services, the church folks pre-
scented them with handsome awards
and testimonial approaching their
worth.
