C. HopGsoN, Mayor of St. Peul. We must have in the United States a great unbroken family circle of genuine Americanism, not only to sustain law and order, and maintain our ideals, but in order to guarantee to each individual citizen happiness and justice. America cannot afford to have any man, woman or child outside the family circle. and no individual can-afford to ‘be on the outside. To be an erican means something more than to obey the law and ‘to:subport.our government. It means loyalty to the principles upon which all just governments and decent societies are founded,—loyalty to the ideals of personal kindness, fairness, unselfishness and willing service. No one can be truly American whq does not love his fellows and practice the spirit of co- operation in all his dealings. He who hates, or shirks, or is intolerant,—cannot be a real American. The way to make men Americans is to love them and help them and welcome them to pnrticipa'tlon in all that we do and dream. There must be no barriers between American citizens, no sense of class, no isolations, no emphasizing of difter- ences. We must play the game together, walk the journey hand in hand, stand shoulder to shoulder, and refuse to accept anything for ourselves unless all our comrades can have the same privilege. By loving America we will make it OUR COUNTRY, and by serving it in the spirit of love we will create in America the justice that means peace, happiness, success for all. —————— e e ' COYOQOTE INTO ITS OWN. in a visualization of the big New York state success, “A Girl in Bohe- ’ e ] From ap ignominious place in the | _ offices have become. superbly interpreted by Joset Swick- secure for the Chippewa Indians of Minnesota their rights as| 00" Ly o0 oht 2 tmosphere for her independent citizens. e . |novel among the near-Bohemians of The struggle has gone on for years, until now it bids fair|New York.

They have been given no responsibilities, not even those of children; they have been kept as if infants with no help to development. Yet in spite of this they have produced many men of marked ability who have made this fight for them. Under the guidance of these of their.own people and in spite of government interference, theyv have progressed; they have built, traded and farmed. There are few who are not now fitted to act for themselves. They have their own organ- ized council of advisers and who, far better than any govern- ment agents, know their needs, and now that liquor is ban- ished from the state, they certainly should be left to manage their own affairs. . They have been wards for more than the 60 years of Min- nesota’s statehood. Generations have come and gone, and would come and go forever .if the federal bureau leeches had their way. But at last there is hope for them to be permitted to come to manhood as there can be no doubt the senate will indorse the action of the house. ) o BAKER'S ANSWER DEEMED SUFFICIENT. Again a St. Paul post of the Amercian Legion scorches the secretary of war in the release of Broms from a term of imprisonment in Fort Leavenworth, and rejterates its declara- tion that the secertary of war, by refusing to permit the re- arrest of Allan A. Broms, “condemns the man who fought for the government, and sanctions the slacker, the foreign traitor and the spy,” according to a letter forwarded, to the war depart- ment by Reese McGee, adjutant of St. Paul post No. 8. The letter was a reply to a ‘communication from Adjutant General P. C. Harris, stating that it had been decided that Broms ‘““could not be reapprehended because he was in legal posses- sion of a discharge certificate and had been released from confinement.” The adjutant general’s lettcr, dated December 27, said that the post’s resolution would receive “due consideration,” and that the release of Broms.‘“was fhrough an error upon the It then set forth the decision of the war department not to tearrest him.

Termed by critics the most beauti- ful woman in the world, Miss Mac- Donald has utilized the remarkable dramatic strength of ‘“The Beauty Market” for a display of not only her beauty but also of her histrionic talent. In this production she takes the part of a society girl without proper finances to enable her to con- tinue the life. Her one hope rests on a wealthy marriage. She dreads this, because it means the death of happiness. It is not until she encounters Cap- tain Kenneth Laird that Amelie re- alizes that she has met a man who regards marriage as something more than an exchange of ' beauty for wealth, At the very outset of their meeting however, she realizes that SCENE IN “POLLYANNA” | fashioned Christmas?’ The first laughing death scené ever “No,” replied Cactus Joe. “We to be shown upon the screen has been . : done by Mary Pickford in “Polly- had astnctly modern Christmas.
