A Newcomer With the Right Idea Solomon Dabinski, who arrived in New York from Poland a year ago, recently won a medal with his essay on George Washington in competition with youne: men and women who are
natives of this land and have enjoyed the benefits of our institutions since birth. Young Dabinski had no special advantages excepting those offered in night classes on Americanization which he attended. He worked during the day. He knew no word of English when he arrived here a year ago, and his early education was a poor one, acquired in a haphazard manner in the years when his country was the scene of fighting. He left Poland for America to escape chaotic conditions. "Trouble, trouble, all the time." is the way he explained conditions there. "So I came to this country, where a man, if he is a good citizen, doesn't get into trouble all the time." His essay revealed not only a good grasp of the English language, but also an understanding of some of the fundamental traits which mad3 George Washington the father of his country. This paragraph explains what his study of Washington's life revealed to him: "We know that without George Washington the revolution would have been a failure almost from the beginning. When it was over he became the idol of his country. With the army at his back and the great numbers who loved him as their 'father,' he could have had supreme power in his country, but that was not George Washington's idea." His determination to become a "good citizen,"
based upon the example which George Washington set, shows that this newcomer realizes that' the basis of our well being as a nation and of our happiness as individuals rests upon good citizenship with all that the term implies in the way of knowledge of our fundamental laws and institutions. If more aliens came to the United States as Dabinski did, not only to escape the "troubles" of Europe, but also to develop their powers of citizenship, the country would grow strong with
every additional immigrant. Young Dabinski's example will be a good one for other aliens. It should be an inspiration to them, showing that in this country the reward
for meritorious service goes to the man who i3 qualified, irrespective of his birth or previous training. It is regretable that too many aliens do not accept the privilege of American citizenship with the same conscientious spirit which young Dabinski has shown. In that one particular lies the menace of admitting thousands of aliens to this country. They come here to be better themselves financially, but not to learn our institutions and become what this young alien described as "good citizens." Young Dabinski's success, on the other hand, shows that the Americanization classes are really achieving results in their effort to awaken an interest in American affairs. If he had not had
an opportunity of attending classes that taught citizenship, the chances are that he would never have become sufficiently interested in our governmental system to study its founding and operations. The work of amalgamating the aliens into our citizenship is a stupendous one, but as the nation becomes more keenly alert to its possibilities, more and more agencies will be enlisted in its behalf to teach the foreigners, and, by example and precept, to show them the value of becoming Americans not only in name but also in the spirit of Washington, who, as young Dabinski said in his prize essay, "could have had supreme power in his country, but that was not George Washington's idea."

TODAY'S TALK By George Matthew Adams, Author of "You Can," "Take It,"
Up"
IF YOU ONLY HAD YOURSELF It may be true that we are each to ourself the most interesting personage in the world, but on the other hand, did we have no other person on earth to interest these selves of ours, we would soon go suddenly mad. The well fed dog m?.y stretch himself In the shade of a tre3 and, forget all else in his contentment. But let him once get hungry again! Jesus said: "Blessed is he who hungers and thirsts after righteousness." Thrice blessed is he who continually hungers after something higher and better than what he himself represents. Add to yourself, my friend, interests, interests, interests! For it is out of these Interests of yours that spring the life and rich rewards of existence. And it matters very little the direction in which your interests lead you, so long as they stimulate and spur you to unfold the best that is within you. When we give most we get most. Service renders larger dividends than any stock or bond. You may pride yourself on having much but it is in such an attitude of thinking that you really possess the least. You have most when you appreciate most. The penniless boy walking through a wood may be richer than the richest millionaire. He may see what no one but he who Is rich in love may see. There are those who cross the seas a hundred times in search of happiness and who returns as lacking as when they set out. If they but knew it, this happiness which they" are willing to spend so much to gain, might be theirs simply for walking a few steps to the door of their neighbor and there tendering no more than a pleasant talk or good service. The greatest adventure toward which we all look forward that we may find real thrills, begins the minute we leave ourselves for some thing or somebody.

A nervy motorcyclist, put a stop to '.he runaway inclinations of a team of horses, dragging a heavy farm wagon on South Seventh street, toward Main street at a dizzy rate of speed. The
j horses were hitched to a wagon which I had been used in hauling household
goods to a home on South Seventh street. The horses scared when all the load but a gasoline stove had been taken from the wagon. They started north on Seventh street toward Main street, with the farmer in hot pursuit. He was hopelessly outclassed in the run. Near the G street crossing, a motorcyclist saw the runaway and immediately nut on speed, and by quick work grabbed a rein in one hand and controlled his machine with the other. In this way he stopped the team. The man was on his machine and away before his name could be learned.

the seismographic instrument at Washington. In a recent discussion in the United States senate, a senator defined a diplomat as "a man who appropriates vour coat in so engaging a manner that you thank him for taking it" That recalls to mind a definition I heard many years ago: "A diplomat is a man who takes your hat and coat and explains it so well that you give him your watch chain."
Europe in his capacity as surveyor-
general of supplies and afterward as minister of munitions and supplies. His eldest son, the Hon. Morton Weir, heir to his seat in the House of Lords, who served throughout the great war, recently acquired all the Dalzell interests in the London Fall Mall Gazette, of which he is now the chief owner. For a number of years it belonged to the late Lord Astor, when it was conspicuous for its ultra-conservatism. Now it is one of the orsjans of the Lloyd George party. At the outset of the war Lord Inverforth, as Andrew Weir, was one of the greatest figures in the shipping trade in the British Empire. Hailing from Kircaldy, he is an old friend of A. Bonar Law, and at the time when, early in 1915, confusion reigned supreme in the supply business of the war department, he was, at the in
stance of Bonar Law, invited by the government to join the administration
as surveyor-general of supplies, and promptly proceeded to put everything on a business basis and to substitute system for something akin to chaos. After the Armistice he achieved won-
for the state in the direction of the sales of leftover supplies and superfluous war material of every kind. He has also been minister of munitions.
