 No Opportunities Tben
 American wants the immigrant as a worker, but makes no effort to direct him to the places where workers are needed. It leaves him to go here, there, or anywhere, If an immigrant were a horse instead of a human being, America would be more careful of losing something, if it loses an immi- grant it feels it is losing nothing. It seems this way to the immigrant and strengthens his natural desire to settle among people of his own race.

Forrest and an older brother had
been attending school at Eureka, living
with their father who had moved in
from his Yaak ranch The father was
unable to secure employment, however,
and two weeks ago decided to move
back to Yaak. He directed Forrest to
walk to Rexford. cross the county
bridge and proceed up the trail until he
came to the wagon road to the Yaak
from Eureka.
When the father reached the place
where the trail joins the road the boy
was not there. and Johnson came to
the conclusion that the lad had arrived
earlier and gone on ahead. 1t was
