The naturalization Of foreigners is
n OF the interesting features Of any
country and in the United States
where there Is such a mixture OF
races naturalizion OF those who have
immigrated to this country to i'm
o their conditions and establish
homes are more or less of a problem
and usually there Is a different and
interesting story connected with
every immigrant. Many OF them
come to this country with the intent
OF adopting the United States as
their own and they make every eff
fort to learn the language, customs
and habits in order that they may
make better citizens while others
make nc attempt to learn the lam
guage or become Americanized. In
the East more than in the West many
of these immigrants settle in small
groups and are known as Little
Italy" Little Greece" etc. and
these are the ones who present the
greatest problem to the citizens of
the country for many times 1t is
years before they ever so much as
learn the language and they make
no attempt to ever become citizens.
Until these groups are broken up and
the different members A~mericanized
they will never be of great benefit
to the country. II Is to the interest
of the United States to try to in

citizens and take their place as
citizens Of this great country.
Thus when naturalization day
zones round IT is always with
great interest and enthusiasm that
one watches them become citizens.
So many times one wishes that he
might congratulate the new member
and show him wherein the country
az a whole IS proud To admit him
as one OF their group. Somo OF
these newly made citizens have
spent days and months preparing
themselves for the examination and
II Is with Joy that we watch them
when they are repaid by receiving
full citizenship.

WASHINGTON, AUG. 27.-One of
the outstanding features of the va
cation trip of President Coolidge,
who has just returned from a two
weeks stay at his fathers farm in
Vermont, was the visit of Henry
Ford, Thomas A. Edison and Harvey
S. Firestone.
On their annual camping trip,
these three geniuses of industry and
invention called upon the President
on an automobile tour through New
England, and for several hours dis
cussed with him various problems
and conditions. All three of them
assured him of their hearty support
of his candidacy for election.
The chief topic of conversation
was the future prosperity of the
country. The three camping COM
panions assured the President that
