Our Foreigners Asa Contribution
and Aid Given Them by America.
This article was compiled and given
by Mrs. W. B. McCants at the W. C.
T. U. meeting recently.
According to a late report of our
government, we have 17,500,000 foreign
born people in the United States. With
their children they constitute one-third
of our entire population We have in
the United States newspapers printed
in 150 different languages, with a cir
culation of 10,000,000 copies, and we
have 8,000,(XX) people who cannot even
speak English.
They have been coming to us at the
rate of a million a year. Only eight
of our 68 cities of over 100,000 popu
lation are really American. Chicago,
Milwaukee and New York are practi
cally foreign cities on American soil
More than half of New York City were
born outside of the United* States. One
half of the Jewish population on the
United States live there. Today it
might be called the New Jerusalem,
for there are 1,500,000 Jews living
*there.
Of the 56 signers of the Declaration
of Independence, eight were born out
side the United States. The Revolu
tionary was fought by Britishers under
the leadership of George Washington.
Our Northern armies during the Civil
war were led largely by Germans and
Irishmen, and when our first military
draft for the European war was made,
there appeared page after page of
names hardly pronounceable.
Prior to 1883, most all of our immi
gration came from western and north
ern Europe; since then they have
come from southern and eastern Eu
rope The Bohemians are the best ed
ucated people who come to our shores.
Four per cent of the Germans in the
United States are illiterate, and four
per cent of the native born Americans
are'likewise illiterate, while only 2 per
cent'of the Bohemians are in this condi
tion. Some of our best families aie
descendants of Bohemians.
Have you thought how profoundly
influenced we have been by Asia? Our
Bible is an Asiatic book. Our heroes
of the Bible and even Jesus Christ,
himself, were Asiatics. It would be
well for us to repaember this when we
look into the faces of Syrians, Arme
nians .Chinese and Japanese. The Ar
menians were in a high state of civil
ization when our ancestors were bar
barians. We forget that Christianity
is an Oriental religion, and we are in
debted to them for things we can nev
er fully repay. In California, 75,000
acres of land are possessed by Japan
ese .There are 125,000 of them that
are truck gardeners on the coast of the
Pacific. The Christian religion is less
influential with them today than a gen
eration ago, which was caused by the
anti-Japanese legislation
Have we ever thought how depen
dent we are upon these foreigners for
the dally necessities of life? They
manufacture 95 per cent of the clothing
we 'wear. They refine 95 per cent of
the sugar we use. They do 85 per
cent of the work in the meat packing
industry. They manufacture 85 per
cent of our furniture and leather goods
70 per cent of our mining is done by
foreigners.
Let’s not forget when we sit by our
cozy firesides in our comfortable
chairs, enjoying some of the luxuries
of life, these foreigners who have sac
rificed in these mines and plants to
give us pleasure. Some say there is
danger from immigration. It is not
from poverty, for they bring $36,000,000
a year to America. There are more
crimes committed among them, but
these are the result of a misunderstand
ing of our laws, illiteracy, environment
and un-Americanism.
The new laws of our country will
prevent much crime from occurring in
the future, for we now require all for
eigners coming to our shores to prove
they can read and as a test, they are
giren the Bible which is printed in all
the languages of the world.
What is being done for this vast
population of the foreign born? Better
laws are being made for their protec
tion. Ellis Island, alone, has 175 gov
ernment employees, whose business it
to attend to the needs of these im
migrants. Distributing agents send
them to all parts of the country where
they are most needed. If they have
no place to go. they send them to
homes. New York City has 13 of
these homes. Every large city has an
emigrant protective association. There
are Travelers’ Aid Societies, Labor Un
ions. Y. W. A’s. and Y M. C. A.’s The
American Bible and Tract society is
distributing tons of literature among
them. IVe have 7,000 from their best
homes in our colleges and universities,
and 6,000,000 foreigners and their chil
dren in our churches. There is no way
we can do our foreign missionary work
so effectively and so economically as
with the heathens whom God has
brought to our doors, for one-third of
them go back to their homeland.
There were two men standing on one
of'the wharfs of our great cities as
the human cargo embarked from an
immigrant ship. One saw only “da-
BUICK’S NEW FOUR
CYLINDER LINE
Announcement Is made today of the
presentation before the motoring pub
lic of Buick’s new four-cylinder line.
[’There are four models in the Hue.,
including roadster and five passenger
touring in the open cars, and three
passenger coupe and five-passenger se
dan in the closed models.
Inasmuch as it lias been known in
the automotive trade for some time
that Buick purposed adding a line of
fourK considerable interest attaches
to the specifications covering the new
models. In motor construction Buick
has adhered to the valve-in-head prin
ciple with which its name has been so
prominently connected for twenty
years.
Shipping weights of the four models
are: Roadster, 2310 pounds; touring
car, 2380 pounds; coupe, 2430 pounds;
sedan, 2650 pounds.
Prices, f. o. b. factories at Flint,
Mich., are: Roadster, $935; touring car.
$975; coupe, $1.475; sedan, $1,650.
In adding the four-cylinder models
to the seven models of six-cylinder
cars now produced, Buick executives
feel they have rounded out their line
and constructed cars which are in every
respect worthy of the Buick name.
Go around and let the IV inder Mo
bile Cos., explain the new models to
you. They will be glad to do so, wheth
er you buy or not.
COULD BEAT HANDS
SHUCKING HIS CORN
At I>east J. A. White Would Bet So.
After Being Relieved of Dys-
Npepsin by Tanlae.
“My wife and myself have had stom
ach trouble," says Mr. J. A. White, re
siding on the Leestown Pike, R. I ■ D.
No. 6. near Lexington, Ky., “and have
both been nervous and run down."
‘‘We could not see anything without
suffering afterwards and could not
sleep at night. We were regular nerv
ous dyspeptics. We tried many rem
edies without permanent benefit until
we heard of Tanlae. got this medicine
and began using it. We noticed imme
diate result!'. We are both greatly
improved by Tanlae. We give all cred
it for the change of health to Tanlae.
It is a remarkable medicine.
“I personally feel so good that I
told my hands a day or two ago that
I could beat any of them shucking
corn. I meant it and believe I could
have beat ’em all.
Of all the maladies that afflict hu
manity chronic dyspepsia, such as Mr.
and Mrs. White suffered from is prob
ably the most prevalent and hours
might be consumed in describing the
suffering, mental and bodily, of the
victims of chronic dyspepsia.
A morgid, unreal, whimsical and mel
ancholly condition of the mind, aside
from the nervous physical suffering, is
the usual state of the average dyspep
tic and life seems scarcely worth the
living.
Tanlae, the celebrated medicine, was
designed especially for overcoming
this distressing condition and millions
of people have taken it with the most
astonishing and gratifying results, t
sens to go straight to the spot, toning
up and invigorating every organ of the
body.
Tanlae is sold in Winder by G. W. De-
LaPerriere & Son and by leading drug
gists everywhere.

gion, which Is Christianity. It should

Supreme court of the United States
says this is a Christian nation. This
country was sought out by Christians
and its institutions were established
by Christians. It was the first coun
try in the world to be built by Chris
tians and for Christians. Then Christ
and His life and law and authority
should be taught in the public schools.
They allow the works and lives of Jul
ius Caesar and of Napoleon, and the
principles of democracy to lie taught
hut not Christianity. This was a
Christian country before it was a de
mocracy and Christianity should be
taught along with democracy. We
should have Christian teachers who are
as competent to teach religion as to
teach mathematics.
