PATRIOT PRIMER
 FOR FOREIGNERS
Simple Story of Our Nation Told i by Catholic Council to
 New Citizens.

Washington.-As ammunition in its nationwide fight for civic education of the nine million foreign-born and Hit crate people in the United States, the National Catholic War Council has is- sued patriotic primer, entitled "The Fundamentals of Citizenship" from its headquarters in this city. Tn less than fifty pages of short, simple sentences the history and idea of American de mocracy as well as the needs and rights of its people are outlined in this little book, with brief explanations of such subjects as public education, health, legislation, representation, the courts, foreign relations, fraud proven ton, insurance, taxation, naturaliza- ton and duties of citizenship. Trans lated into foreign languages or quoted by thousands of the trained native speakers who are enlisted in this civic campaign, the contents of this hand book on American democracy will be placed before every man. woman and child in this country whose civic igno- rance might make them easy prey for Bolsheviki propaganda. It Includes copies of the Declaration of Independ- ence and the Constitution of the Unit ed States.
 Declaring that tour country iE the land of freedom and opportunity" and that knowledge of its Constitution Is necessary to the American-born as well as to the foreign-born eff they, too, are to take up the task of faithful citizen ship" this primer of patriotism de votes itself at the outset to "the gen. eral work of reconstruction in citizen ship" It explains that "the citizen who does not possess some knowledge
 of our democratic institutions may easily become the prey of the dema- gogue or of persons who are anxious

We Must Fight For True Americanisn
By REV. JOHN J. BURKE, c. s. p.

ton has seen and is sti1l seeing service at home and abroad. \ Every intelligent and patriotic Amer ican sees today that these services, harnessed for work in the war, ought not to be scrapped, but should serve In the future just as capably as in the past. We all know our strength the better, and we aIr feel under the urge of the new Amercanism that we ought to use it to the full If victory is not to be lost we must keep up the fight for true American principles; we must wipe out the poisonous imported prin. ciples. We must make of our new. corners intelligent, capable citizens
 The Catholic body is close to these questions. No church has weathered so many storms; no church has so of ten spoken on world problems. The program of Social Reconstruction, is. sued by the National Catholic War Council, is an index of what the &C., ton and leadership of the Catholic to- day will be. Problems of labor and capital, Americanization, social better ment, child labor, community welfare the increased importance of the posi- ton of women, the necessity of clas- sical and technical education, housing conditions, the well-being of boys and girls-all these should receive careful attention and warrant the continuation of the National Catholic Welfare Coun- ell.
 In the meeting of the bishops of the entire country at Washington Ameri cans will witness the greatest Catholic gathering since the Plenary Council of Baltimore in 1884. In 1t experienced. patriotic men will give heart and soul to American problems. They will try to plan so that by solving these prob lems the United States may be made a stronger, better and more prosper ous nation than ever before.

B0LSHEVISM A FAILURE
 IF PEOPLE BUY W. 5. s.

If the American people want to inoculate this country against the germs of Bolshevism, they should invest their money in Thrift Stamps, War Savings Stamps, Treasury Savings Ger tifcates and other government securities, according to Mrs. Francis l.. Higginson, director sf savings for the First Federal Reserve District.
 All Savers Capitaitsts.
 Hrs. Hfgginson says:
 .-Nvery man, woman and child who Invests their money in government Decrities will rarely be converted = Bolshevfk principles, for Bolshe- vdsm aims to do away with govern nent and to distribute the savings of tAs people among the inhabitants of that country.
 With money invested in govern nsat securities, person is in a anaI way capitalist. They are d. - strong packers of the government lu which their money is invested"

SAVING SEEN AS REMEDY IN
 LIVING COSTS
MRS. HUTCHINSON ASKS
 FOR ECONOMY

: With the prediction by high of fcials in Washington that before the high cost of living becomes lower in this country the people must cease spending their money for luxuries, Mrs. Francis L. Hig- sinson, director of savings for the First Federal Reserve District has issued statement urging the peo- pie of New England to be more thrifty, invest their savings in safe securities such as Ehrlft Stamps, War Savings Stamps, Treasury Saving Certificates and other government securities.
 Spending Recklessly.
 Mrs. Higginson's statement reads as follows:
 'aThe investigation of the high cost of living at Washington has brought to light the fact that one of the req sons for the present high prices is because the people are spending mon ey lavishly for luxuries.
 sIt has also been pointed out by prominent officials at Washington that no relief from high prices can be expected until the people refrain From demanding the highest quality of everything and paying any price to get it.
 Should Practice Thrift.
 eff every person in New England would practice thrift for at least a year and invest their savings in safe securities such as are offered by the Government, the Federal Land Banks and Savings Banks, we should not hear so much about the high cost of living.
 To-day there is a greater number of people in New England practicipg thrift than before the war but there still remains much larger number of people who as yet have not learned the benefits to be derived from thrift, and the proper investment of their savings in saIe securities rather than in untried investments.
 -I feel sure that if the people of New England can be brought to real ixe that a more conservative expendi- lure of their income will help to reduce the high cost of living, they will gladly refrain from the purchase If non-essentials-"

CPrepared by the United States Depart ment of Agriculture.)
 The production of eggs in winter from bullets, and to some extent from hens, can be greatly stimulated by good methods of feeding, housing and handling. Very few eggs are se- cured on the average general farm during the fall and early win ter, when eggs bring the highest prices Poultrymen, however, by better man. agement secure fair egg production during these seasons.
 To receive good results from a flock of poultry during the winter all houses and coops should be in good condition, only healthy fowls placed in these buildings, and good care given to the poultry. These houses should be thoroughly cleaned. If the house has a dirt floor, it is we'll to remove the, top three or four inches of dirt and replace 1t with fresh dirt or sand. If 1t has a cement or wooden floor, re- move all litter and dirt and put in four or five inches of fresh straw or litter.
 Avoid All Drafts.
 Be sure that the house Is tight on three sides and that there is no chance for draft to strike the hens. If hens roost or are placed in a draft during the fall and winter. colds are sure to develop, which may result in roup and other troubles. From one-third to one-half of the south side or front of the poultry house may be made of curtains and windows, but should be under control, so that the openings may be closed gradually as the wealth CT becomes cold. Have muslin cur tains in the front of the house or leave window partly open. even on the coldest nights, to allow some ven- tilation in the house. Fowls will stand considerable cold air provided it is dry, md ventilation will keep the air thoroughly dry in the house.
 Make Fowls Exercise.
 Feed the grain in the litter on the floor and make the hens exercise for all of their grain. The mash may be fed either wet or dry, and should be so regulated that the fowls will get about equal parts of mash and of the scratch grains. It is necessary to give the fowls plenty to eat to get good results, but the birds should al- ways be eager for each feed. In cold weather feed about one-third of the scratch grain in the morning and two thirds at night. In this way the hens are forced to exercise more than

SAVING CERTIFICATES
 ARE PROVING POPULAR

The governments new $1O0 and $1,000 Treasury Savings Certificates have developed into an ideal investment for admins trators of executors of estates, who find it necessary to keep at least a small part of their trust funds in liquid securities, that can be readily cashed.
 This use for the new savings secu- rites has appealed. to those experi- enced in handling trust funds in vari- ous parts of the country, and Mrs. Francis L. Higginson, Director of Saw ings First Federal Reserve District declares that there win be continu- ous demand for the new securities for. this purpose.

LITTLE MISS THRIFT HOLDING NEW MINIATURE w. S. s. GREN- AIDE SAVINGS BANK.

Approximately 25o,ooo miniature banks made from hand grenades are to be distributed among the thrifty children of New England. These banks, which are made to hold dimes and pennies, will be given to each youngster under twelve years, who purchases one War Savings Stamp. Children over twelve years of age can secure one of these banks when they have purchased two stamps.
 To Encourage Thrift
 When the armistice was signed the War Department had on hand 15,00O,- 900 grenades. To encourage thrift and stimulate interest in the savings campaign, the hand weapons were transformed into beautiful miniature banks that will hold no pennies or dimes. Across the face of the gren- ade bank appear the words Buy w. s. S."
 These banks will be distributed un- der the supervision of the War Loan Organization of the Savings Di- vision of the First Federal Reserve District for the purpose of stimulat- ing the habit of thrift among the chill dren. l,.r@~
 When these miniature banks are ready for distribution, they may be obtained at representative department stores and banks.
