Blow To Fasteners
If Governor Hoey should appoint
Attorney General Seawell to the Su-
preme Court as his appointee from the
east-Seawell is originally from San
ford, in Lee county, which is consid-
cred as being "in the east"-it would
be quite a blow to those who have
been boosting other eastern candidat-
es for the appointment. Among those
most frequently mentioned as being
in line for the eastern appointment
are former Judge L. r. Varser, of
Lumberton; Superior Court Judge M.
V. Barnhill, of Rocky Mount; and Su-
perior Court Judge G. Vernon Cow
per, of Kinston, while almost all of
the superior court and special judges
in the east have been endorsed for
the appointment. Observers agree
that almost every judge, former judge
and licensed attorney in the State
would like to have one of the appoint
ments. For months a quiet, but per-
sistent contest has been going between

without charge establish confidence
in the students some of whom in
times past have been exploited by
INSCRIPTIONS persons, charging ex-
orbitant prices for comparatively
small services.
The requirements for citizenship
in most cases are five years continu-
GUS residence in the United States,
a personal record free from crime,
an understanding of the English
language and a knowledge of the
history of the United States and of
its principles and plan of govern
ment-federal, state, city and county.
Therefore the naturalization work
includes the study of English, writ
ten and spoken, American history
and civics.
The naturalization teacher must
have a book background of these
subjects, and in addition some
knowledge of psychology, geography,
economics, sociology, music and
dramatics.
In addition, she or he as the case
may be, needs sympathy, tact, good
judgment, patience, good temper, I'M
firing energy, ability to cooperate to
organize and to forget herself as an
individual and when on duty to re-
member only that she is a part of the
school and a friend among friends.
Impossible to find such people,
you say? Not at all. They may
occasionally be found among teach
ers on relief, and, when the final
records of the WPA Adult Education
r closed it will be found that
teachers who had lost everything,
even their courage, were rehabili-
tated and made useful members of
society once more by developing in
the naturalization school their latent
ability.
The joy which comes to the natur-
~alization teacher from work such as
is being done in Butte, is derived,
not only from the success of the stu
dents when undergoing the examina-
ton, but also from the lasting friend
ships formed with the students. We
realize that each brings his contri-
button from the Old World to the
New" and it is our aim that all
worthwhile contributions of the Old
World may be added to the glorious
opportunities of the New World to
make a type of naturalized citizen of
whom we may be justly proud.

and were granted their certificates
of citizenship and the school was
complimented by both judges. This
success gave an impetus to the school
and enrollments increased.
On September 25, 1886, at a gradu-
alton party SO candidates were given
their proficiency certificates by the
local American Legion Post.
On September %, 1886, in the Fed
eral District Court, His Honor Judge
James E. Baldwin presiding, and on
October 1, 1886, in Judicial District
Court of Montana, His Honor, Judge
Timothy Downey presiding, the SO
graduates of the school were granted
their certificates of citizenship, max
ing SO graduates to date. Since that
date the enrolment has grown until
it now numbers 1856. Of these stu
dents go will take their examinations
in March. Of the remainder many
will be ready for the autumn exam
nations. Others are learning to read
and write so hal they can qualify
for filing.
Students will walk many blocks
through deep snow and sub-zero
weather to attend school. They will
discuss not only the material of the
course of study, but current events
and important legislation. Instead
of fearing questioning they welcome
it and are disappointed if they do
not get a chance to submit to a
sample examination.
The spirit of friendliness prevails
and in more than a year of work not
a cross word has been spoken. How
has this been accomplished? Many
factors have contributed to this sue
cess.
In the first place as far as pos
sible teacher classroom attitude has
been eliminated. The instructors are
friends there to help in every pos
sible way and may be consulted on
any question from when did Speak
er Joseph Byrae die?" to What
must I do to establish my minor sons
citizenship"
Also every effort is made to meet
the changing shifts, both of the
miners and the women working in
the WPA sewing room, so that no
lessons r missed, and students on
afternoon or night shift are enabled
to keep up with those who can at
tend all evening sessions.
Special classes are held for stu
dents handicapped by lack of edu-
cation, and inadequate English. No
student is ever treated as inferior
because of foreign birth, or broken
English.
Lastly, the instructors and the
supervisors are always willing to
answer questions, write letters, fill
out forms, or consult authorities
about any matters relating to citi-
zenship, and these services rendered

that his upright stance made him a
good target for defensive linemen,

him simultaneously in half dozen
