MORE AMERICAN
IZATION NEEDED
From the following carefully com
piled statistics we come to the conclu
sion that there is plenty of work ahead
for those engaged in Americanizing
America.
There are in this country 11,404 for-'
sign language newspapers, with a com-,
binod circulation of almost eleven mil-,
lion.
Almost one-third of tlie entire pop- (
ulatiop of America is either foreign- j
bom or the children of foreign-born
parents.
America has more Norwegians than
Christiana; more Swedes than Stock
holm ; more Germans than Bremen,
Hamburg and Leipsic; more Czechs
than Prague; more Poles than Warsaw
and almist as many Mexicans as Mex
ico City.
Take the state of New York alone.
That mighty melting pot contains 26,-
000 native Greeks, 27,000 native Nor
wegians, 32,000 native French, 38,000
'•native Czechs, 40,000 native Rouman
ians, 53,600 native Swedes, 80,000 na
tive Hungarians, 150,000 native Aus
trians, 250,(MX) native Poles, 30,000. na
tive Germans, 520,000 native Russians
and 550,000 more Italians.
There are single newsstands in New
York City where one can buy newspa
pers printed in twenty different lan
guages.
As we have been generous in admit
ting alien immigrants, so should we
I*o careful in seeing that these new
grafts do not produce freak and sport
growths to the derimen of the old
‘original stock.
Wherever this can be effected by cul
tivation. we are; all to the good
wherever it can’t we must be unsparing
with the pruning shears.
And it seems to us that big New
Y'ork limb needs special attention. —

A CHRISTMAS
CALL TO WINDER.
(Rev. Jesse M. Dodd.)
At the earnest solicitation of a Chris
tian business man not of my ehureh,
I am making a Christmas suggestion
to tiie jieople of Winder ns to the Pen
ny-A-Week PJan.
Some weeks ago the First Baptist
church inaugurated this plan which is
as follows: Everybody is provided \
with a Christmas stocking inadp of in- j
expensive material, and for each Sail-,
liatli of the year is asked to put one
penny into the bag, aggregating 52 j
pennies (53 for the year beginning
next Sunday) 100 people would thus
raise $58.00; 200, sltKi.lH); 300, $159.00;
4<NI, $212.(X) and so on.
Winder can raise $7.50 to SI(XX).(X)
easily this year for the Associated
Charities to use next Christinas, if each
Bible school will use the plan and pros
ecute it. The First Baptist Bible
school raised S7O.(X) in just a few weeks
and expects to raise at least S2OO by
next Christinas, merely on the Penny
n-week plan.
The* best feature in it all is the line
discipline in systematic giving for ev
erybody.
I most respectfully suggest that
Winder Bible school? begin the plan
at once. Once the habit is formed,
it comes easy ami natural.
