Throughout the country the
the bureau of naturalization

plan of
of thej

United States department of labor to
enlist the public schools in the educa-
tion and Americanization of candi-
dates for citizenship i- receiving the
most gratifying support. Already
more than 100 eties and towns have
enlisted in this movement and the
number is increasing daily,
The miagnitude of this work and its
development since its inception are
shown in part by the territory covered,
by the niumber of candidates for citi-
zenship reached and the night and
day schoois whicthhave been estab-
heh!ed for thieir instruction. It is the
intention of the bureau of naturaliza-
tion to communicate with all appli-
cants for citizenship in the United
Mtates and to secure the opening of
classes for them wherever found. All
men who signify their intention o
taking out naturalization papers are
asked by the bureau to enroll in one
of t hese schools so that they may un-
derstand more clearly the making of
an American citizen,
The wives of all petitioners for na-
turalization are also asked to attend
for the reason that they derive citi-
zenship' when their husbands get their
naturalization papers. It is also de--
sirable that their families be taught
to live as Anericans. It has been
found that out of every three peti-
tioners for naturalization papers two
are married and it is to the improve-
m~ent of the home life that this cam-
paign is being directed.
The records of the bureau of natur-
alization show that since the corn-
niencoment of the school year on Oct.
1, notirications have been sent to 40,-,
000 declarants, 20,000 petitioners, and
15,000 wives of petitioners. Each day,
hundreds are added to the list.-
The records also show that over
500,000 foreigpi born residents annu-
ally come within the jurisdiction of
the bureau of naturalization.
PROF. E. E . SUNI)ERLAND READS
PAPER TO :RATTLE CREEK BAR4

While seated on the stage at the
Majestic, and with no confederates to
help her out, Mrs. Eva Fay startled a
capacity audience at the Majestic the-
atre last night in her wonderful ex-
hibition of thought reading. Mrs. Pay
answered any questions of a business,
political or personal nature and was
easily the star of the performance. As
regaed ssinging ability, Hufford and
Chain are in the foremost rank. They
call themselves the "Cullud Parson"
and "The Minstrel." This is an act
teeming with wit and humor.
Florence Lorraine assisted by Harry
Codaire, appears in a comedy sketch
called, "The Way to a Man's Heart,"
in which there are a number of clever
lines.
One of the most popular hits in the
bill was "Adolfo," the piano accord-
eanist. He is followed by a novel
dancing act presented by Mle. Asoria,
assisted by Miss Eliante and Chev-
allier Demar.
An event of unusual promise is the
coming appearance of Frances Starr
at the Whitney theatre Thursday, De-
cember 9, when David Belasco will
present this charming young actress
in her latest success, "Marie-Odile,"
a play of convent life by Edward
Knoblauch. The sentiment of this
latest work of Mr. Knoblauch's. is
that of pure youthful romance. It
attempts to show that real innocence
of soul and mind cannot be blotted out
by the experiences of the body. Miss
Starr plays the role, the most difficult
that Mr. Belasco thinks he has ever at-
tempted to present, of a young girl
novice Who has been reared in an
Alsatian convent from the day that
she has been taken in as a foundling.
Mitchell of Braves to ('oach Harvard
Cambridge, Dec. 2.--Fred A. Mitch-

the Harvard baseball team next
spring. It is understood that he will
be given a contract for one year. This
will necessitate his joining the Boston
club a little later in the season.

ROBERT COLLEGE
SENDS STUDENT
HUSSEIN S. FEIZY OF CONSTANTI-
NOPLE STUDIED ENGLISH U-
DER MR. WANN!
SON OF FORMER TURK GENI.
Mr. Hussein S. Feizy, '18E, of Con-
stantinople, Turkey, learned his first
English under the direction of Mr.
Harry W. Wann, of the French de-
partment, when the latter was an in-
structor in Robert College near the
Turkish capitol.
Mr. Wan4 and his former studenit
met accidentally Tuesday afternoon
and renewed their acquaintance. Until.
this time neither knew that the other
was in the university, for they had
not seen each other since Mr. Wann
left Turkey in the summer of 1911.
Mr. Feizy was one of Mr. Wann's
favorite students. He learned the
English language very rapidly. The
method used in Robert college was
somewhat different from any used in
this country. During the first few
weeks that the students are in school
they spend the larger part of every,
day studying the language by sev-
eral different methods. For beginners,
that of holding up objects and pros-
nouncing the corresponding word is
followed. When a fair vocabulary has
been developed they are gradually1
taught to read and write, and the re-
sult is that the young Musselmen are
speaking good English within a re-;
markably short time.
In the fall of 1913 Mr. Feizy came
to the United States and entered M.<
A. C. where he stayed until the fol-
lowing June. At this time the Turks
were emibroiled in Balkan troubles,
making it impossible for him to re-
ceive mail from home. He returnedt
to Turkey and stayed until last Sep-
tember when he came once more to
this country, entering this time as a
sophomore in the engineering depart-
ment of the University of Michigan.
Since his arrival in Ann Arbor Mr.t
Feizy has received news of the death
of his father who had the rank of
Pasha. This is a title corresponding1
most nearly to the English "Lord." In
the case of Mr. Feizy's father, how-t
ever, the title designated a rank in
the Turkish army which correspondsr
to our own term "general." The
elder Feizy was in the army thet
greater part of his life, but retiredt
from active service several years ago.
Another son is now in the army and
is now recovering from wounds re-s
ceived in the fighting at the Darda-
nelles.'
Constantinople a Modern Cityt
Mr. Feizy says that Constantinople,7
or Stamboul as the Turks know it,t
shows the effects of western influenceo
to a marked degree. It is a very cos-
mopolitan city. One can find repre-n
sentatives of a larger number of na-
tions within its limits for the reasont
that it is the gateway between ther
East and the West. For hundreds of1
years merchants and travelers havep
been passing back and forth through
this great port, giving it the name ofd
being the best located city in thes
world.N
An illustration of the effect of for-a
eign influence on Turkish life in the f
capitol is the changed attitude to- i
ward women. The harem has disap- T
peared, and monogamy is now the ac- S
cepted custom. The only remaining u
vestige of the older custom is the veil a

which women are still required to V
wear in public. This new attitude has a
developed so rapidly that Mr. Feizy

CITY COMMENCES MILK
TESTS THIS MORNINS
s101Il"~s FROALL WDEILEWS TO
BE TESTED FOR FOOD VALVE
d IgorouAs tests of Ann Abor's milk
supply will begin this morning undet
the direction of Ci"y Health Officer
Dr. J. A. Wessinger. The tests will
cover a period of at least five dgys.
Sanitary policemen acting under the
direction of Dr. Wessinger began
gathering milk from the supplies of
both producers and retail dealers.
These officers [ave the right to take
their samples unelxpectedly from an-
of the milk which thme people have
on sale. It is expected that at least
78 samples of one pint e:ch will be
turned over to the men working in
the health laboratories in the Cit
hail building.
Careful examination will be given
to discover the exact amount of butter
fat, the specific gravity, the total solid
and the bacterial count, which go to
make up the milk. In order to have
the supply satisfactory for use in the
city, the doctors have decided upon
an ideal milk which the actual samp-
les must equal. This ideal contains
four per cent of butter fat, a total
solid of 13 per cubic centimeter, a
specific gravity of 1031 and a bacterial
count of not v er5 0,000 per cubic cen-
timeter.
Accordixig to the last examination of
milk, which was held early in Sep-
tember, the suppuply shouid be in ex-
cellent condition. At that tmnie a.1 ttl
milk fulfilled tho require nents and
some of it was even abovct the ideal.
Dr. Wessinger is determin d that the
milk shall be perfectly safe for the
children of the city.
was able to notice a mar ed change
when he returned / to T 1rkey after
only a year's absence.
Most of the travel aroupd Constan-
tinople has been done by small boats
something like the smaller ferry boats
used in this country, A effort has
been made to build electr C lines out
of the city to take care of this traflic.
Another recent improveiment was
the removal of the famous "dogs of
Constantinople." For yers the city
was overrun with stray dogs who
lived on the oftals and waste products
which it was customary t throw into
the streets. The animals were of
genuine service in this respect until
recently when better met hods of re-
moving sewage were deeloped and
thousands of the dogs kilied and sold
to an enterprising tannery.
Government in hands 6f Officials
The present Turkish government,
such as it is, is in the hands of two
cabinet officials. Mohamnied fifth is a
constitutional monarch it name, but
the power is really in the control of
Talaat Bey, the minister of . the in-
terior, and Enver Pasha, the minister
of war. They are both very strong
men,, and in high contr4st with the
nominal ruler who is old and weak.
The succession to the throne goes
to the eldest male member of the
reigning family regardles of his re-
lation to his predecessoV. This will
put the reins of the govfrument into
the hands of Yossif Izze.tin upon the
death of the present sultaff. Mr. Feizy
says that he is very dI ernt from
Mohammed. He is poitcally strong
and very active in govennJemnal af-
fairs, and bids fair to bte extremely,
f not dangerously, radical. The Young
Turk party with whor Mr. Feizy
ympathizes, has uot, houever, made
up its mind wia reard to Youssit on
ccount.of the nunerous problems

which already face the country and
are of more immediate iiportance.
Mr. Feizy expects to do post gradu-
ate work in Germi .fter leaving
Michigan and will the return to

ABOVE ALL NATIONS

The above cut shows the universal nature of the Cosmopolitan clubs. At a dinner tendered the delegates
at the seventh annual donvention, which was held at Iowa City, Iowa, in December, 1913, one of the guests
wrote on a blackboard, in English, the motto of the Cosmopolitan clubs, "Above all nations is humanity." The
hoard 'was then passed around the table, and the result is shown above. Among the languages in which the
motto was written at that time are English, Sanskrit, Bengali, Portugese, Russian, Chinese, Japanese, Greek,
German, Hebrew, Polish, Spanish Filipino Italian, Norwegian, French and Hindu.
