FOREWORD t 'gl am enough of an American citizen to believe that a man who speaks the English language and is educated in American schools is a little more civilized, a little more intelligent and more worthy of American citizenship than a man who speaks some other language or dialect. '4America has done so much for me that l owe it everything, and l could not do less than stand by our countryg and l mean to stand by it at all hazards in time of War and peacef'-Hon. Knute Nelson in the U. S. Senate. HESE Words spoken by an alien born have a bark in them that is stimulating. True Americanism is judged not by birthplace, but by belief, not by ancestry, but by actions. lf this man feels such loyalty, how much more ought we, native in birth and nurture, cherish the bounteous blessings about us. All that we have, all that We hope for in ourselves and in our chil- dren, is bound up in this, our common country. The dwelling in the city, the cabin on the prairie, the house on the farm, become the citadels. Within are priceless possessions, devotion to which is a tremendous force. This devotion pushes out from the heartstone, encompasses neighbors and community, em- braces the state, and unites the nation. In school this force is loyalty, in the nation-patriotism. JOSEPH JORCENS.
