Whon you pro to a certain iart of the Ford plant you vill bo puzzled by a b;bel of voices as of a school reciting K:s-i-on.. It is a 5chol a M-ho'il of rownU men and th y an- r citintr lesI'orein laijorcrs cunnot bocotn Anif-rican citizfns. Iarn to pnd mere monry for living and rtlickntly njov fr'dorn and citizenship unh-s.s they can spoak, rf-ad and write English. This was the conclusion rai lied by Henry Ford, and accordingly be has established schools for adult fr i-n workmen. The school is located in tht- new addition of the I'ord shop, l .Otjfi fMt loi.ir. fixe- stories b.iL:h and as white inside as a battleship and as clean. Ford took Jud-- Neil, th mother's pension man with whom he has been in conference, and myself to see the tchool. When wo visited the school in the new factory building the following nationalities were representel in tiull ( lasses wh! h are at work: Pdish. Russian. Roumenian, Servian. Armenian. Hungarian. Syrian. Turkish Austrian. Greek and Slavs. There art about lo other tongues in the factory and they are to lie drawn into the melting pot school as rapidly as the organization can be enlarged. No Others Like It. There is iio other school like this. Its magnitude is the Ford magnitude. I'ord pas all the teachers. The system of teaching is unique. These men are taught by animated object lessons. "Kettle." says the teacher, with '20 pairs of fairer eyes upon him. He hobl.'i up the common tea kettle of the kiti hen. "I put water in the kettle," he continues'. "I put the kettle on the stove. Each sentence is repeated in chorus, over and over auain. Then the teacher takes them thrcr;h the various uses of the personal pronouns, "he put the kettle," "vou put the kettle." "we put the kettle." This brings up the mystery of singular and plural words. llu can't et it into their heads. Hi crabs a man who is known to ie unmarried. "Single," the teacher i-ays. shaking the man. "Not married." Thoy understand. "Now." says the teacher, "one kettle." holding up one hinder, "is what." The answer comes at once. ".Single. " "Now what is tr. o kettles." boidini; Up two finirers and the kettle. "Married:" shouts a i.riuht la orer, bfanun at his own show of knowl-'l-. All he i;ets is ;i biuub. The class has learned enough to see the joke nd the teacher laughs tt.o. The school runs like a machine. With a baton like a music teacher, with many a joke the teacher proceeds. The class reciting in a chorus ith only an occasional pupil called upon to repeat the sentence alone. "He rats my breakfast.' shouts the teacher. "II. eats my breakfast.' repeats the ci ts?. The teach, r takes on a horrified look. "What's that you say. He e.its mv breakfast." Then th instructor rabs a pupil Pi.v feet tall, and says "If be eats my break-fast. I will :mht" and be threatens the bit; man with -his fist. They crab the ineanirm of the error at on -nd will not make that mistake themlvt:. Sers ProinUe in .'Men.

LIQUOR QUESTION IS Rev. Henry L Davis Says Prohibition is Not a Question for States But One That Must be Decided by Congress. "The National Government and the Liquor Traffic" was the subject of the sermon iven Sunday morning at the First M. E. church by Rev. H. L. Davis. Rev. Davis talked on the relation of congress to the liquor question and the Hudson bill, which will come up in the "house of representatives next Wednesday. Mr. Davis in opening stated that he differed with Vice President .Marshal! that the question was one for the states to decide, and also criticised the former governor for repealing' "one of the best temperance laws the, state ever had." "Our contention is that the national government has not only the right, but a sacred duty to perform in the passage of the national anti-liquor law. It has this right and. it is burdened with the duty because it involves a constitutional question. Our constitution ief lares that among man's rights are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Yet every one of these rights guaranteed to us by the constitution is being abridged by the liquor traffic. 1 "Life is being destroyed by the traffic in strong drink. This is a fact in-, disputable. Some of the best insurante statistics disclose that beer drink-' ers lives are shortened from 4 0 to 60 per cent. The drinker suffers from liver, kidney and stomach disease and in the wake of these there follows thousands of other diseases which send these men into the maelstrom of deatn year after year. . Liberty Destroyed. "Liberty is being destroyed, not guaranteed, by intemperance. A large per cent of the prisoners in the nu-j merous penitentiaries oxer the conn-1 try have come to their downfall because of strong drink. In the outh Rend police court during two months of l'.oOi. s- of the 11 prisoners before the judge were because of liquor. "Intemperance defeats the pursuit of happiness. In the Chicago divorce courts recent statistics show that 10 per cent of the divorces had had to do with drink. A nation that is interested enough in public morals to strike down the lottery business; which hastened to defend, in the name of the constitution, the black man whose constitutional rights have been jeopard-' ized, cannot, in the face of dishonored manhood, fold its hands and say that people can get their rights under the, laws of the states. "1 do not know whether the Hobson ' bill w ill be presented but any congressman, be he democrat, republican or progressive, who is in the atmosphere of the national capital, near the glorious birthday of oui nation, who will not try to secure for these outraged people their rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, should go down beneath that axaianche of ballots at the next election."
