several dollies of all apes and sizes. Dolls with yellow hair, dolls with
blue eyes, dolls that "no to slti-p," walking dolls, talking dolls, and a
lozen other varieties crowd the shops and are carried home daily by
fond parents to a waiting Mary Jane, or Betty Ann.
Away over in Sidon, Syria, however, tlietf is only one dull for 1'5
children. Miss Josephine II use, formerly a Nebraska girl, an Alpha Phi,

National Worker
Gives Views., On
Americanization
A. Amy Spalding, national field
worker, in the Americanization de
partment, W. C. T. U., is in Omaha.
She has given the following state
ment of ideas to The Bee:
Of all problems before the minds
of the American people today that
of Americanization should rightfully
hold a very large place. This is
necessarily so because it involves the
niaintainiinee ot the standards of our
home Hie and the moral status of
our future citizenship.
A nation cannot experience the Mi
ll it x of a large percentage of people
whose standards of sanitation, hone
life and education are somewhat Ul
terior, without suffering very ma
terially. Neither can that nation w ho
felt ils responsibility several years
ago in lighting for the peace and
democracy of all nations of the
world, forget its responsibility to the
representatives of those same na
tions who live within our borders.
And again, the individuals of such
a democracy anm.t shift their per
sonal responsibility to such indivi
dual neighbors, bc.-ause they are the
units of a goernjnent "of the people,
by the people and for the people."
When we realize that in America .?S
per cent of our 110,(100,0(10 popula
tion are of foreign stock and only
54 per cent of native parentage, and
10 per cent cannot speak the English
language, we realize that we have
a problem before us which is going
to require the co-operation ,and

I There are many methods of attack
in such a situation, but the writter
would like to cite the precedent cs
l tablished by Detroit, the first city
j in the United Slates to combine
under the Chamber of Commerce all
agencies for Americanization work,

In 1917 a federation of all the
women's organisations was formed
under the direction of the Chamber
Of Commerce? to co-operate with the
schools. A certain amount of ter
ritory was assigned to each organiza
tion and they did follow up work
for the schools ai.d home teaching.
Also a federation of all the
protectant churches was organized,
and the territory of the foreign dis

many more of our cities in the I'uited

The W. C. T, V. is launching a
campaign along that important phae
of,4he work, emphasized by (our na
tional superintendent of education)
Mr. Claxton, when he said: "No
matter what is done by education,
legislation, or any other means,
Americanization will never be ac
complished until the mothers of our
homes are reached." Unless the for

superficial way. They become
ashamed of tkeir homes and parents,
become the dictators in the homes,
and thus, losing respect for the au
thority of the home, they will not
respect the laws of our nation..
