* EIGHT BI ISMARCK DAILY TRIBUNE I TUESDAY, MARCH 16, 1920 AMERICANIZING 200,000 ALIENS THRU FAMILIES; Wives and Children of Foreign- ers Taught Language and Ways of Land Pittsburgh, March 16.— More than 200,000 foreign: who live within 20 miles of the Pitssburgh courthouse are being Americanized through the education of women and children by trained warkers who speak their home toguie and are acquainted with their home customs, Thesa workers ure selected by church boards from among the foreign population, and after being educated in cookery, nursing and the essentials of Americanism are sent among the people to carry out a system by whicil the foreigner may be lifted to the level of his American neighbor, For reiigious purposes #hey have the ac- tive assistance of clergymen who speak the language of immigrants from Southern Europe, and who are in sympathy with the people. The Pittsburgh Presbytery of the Presbyterian church, the pioneer in the movement, has 32 educational sta- tions scattered in all parts of Alleg- henuy county, 42 trained foreign work- ers and 14 winisters. It also pub- lishes four weekiy papers having a combined circulation of almost. 100,- 000, and the leaders of the movement estimate that fully 20,000 foreigners come under the influence of its work ers every day. PLAN IS SIMPLE The plan is simple. Foreigners coming into the district usually col- lect in groups, each nationality living in its own section of: the community where the men are employed. Col porteurs, speaking many languages, are sent among them to spy out the land and inquire into theinr needs. These men gain the confidence of the people, and in time begin the distribution of literature printed in the language of the particular group. This includes short stories depicting American lif2 and sketches of men who have done much to make America. Gradually the foreigners’ show added interest. and when the women and children come over the colony is ready for the woman worker from the Presbyteriaa training school, The care of children, how ta prepare American meats and vegetables, and the best methods to keep their houses clean are gradually taught the wom- en, who, finding themselves addressed in the speech of their childhood, freely give to the young workers their full confidence. LITTLE TROUBLE WITH KIDDIES There is little trouble with the chil- avon, They gladly seize upon the opportunity afforded for American- ization, and are eager to learn the Janguage and custom of the country. It often happens that they are not content with the\learning they obtain in the public school. put crowd | the. summer sehools conducted by the Pres- bytery. They learn quickly, and after a few months sewing is taught to the girls and manua} training to the boys. They are surrounded with’ clean- liness, moral and physical, and made to fee] that if they are to become real citizens of the country they must. learn and follow the mental and physi cal lessons taught to jthem by the young women workerss | Results have been most gratifying, say leaders or the movement. Reaching the man from Southern Europe ig perhaps a little more dif- ficult, but when once reached, au- thorities declare, he seldom goes hack either to his former mental state or his native land. Patriotism is the first theme of the workers, not meaningless platitudes, but practical Jessons in the advantages of living in America, Often these lessons ,are turned to good account, as in the case of a young Russian who recently transformed a Bolshevist society in Pittsburgh into classes which are now engaged in learning English.

The mecting was held in the principal hall of the town and was largely attended | legion members, their friends and r ‘dents of that locality. Teague community and there has beeu considerably animosity and disappreva! shown the legion in that city. Adjutant Harrington explained the purposes of the legion, what it had accomplis during its comparatively short ex: ence and cleared up the misunderstand- ing generally evident of the legion’s part in the repeal of the so-called blue laws. “The legion merely took the initial steps to initiate these four laws,” said Harrington, “Tt is not concerned whether the measures are repealed or adopted. Members will express thelr own opinions on these measures as individuals and not as members of the legion.” Fe Following the meeting, the Coopers- town post gave a supper and dance, which avas.one of the most successful events of its kind eyer held there. OF HIGH SCHOOL TEAMS 10 LEAVE Spencer C. Boise is Made Attrac- tive Offer by Lisbon Authorities Spencer C. Boise, member of the high school staff of instructors, coach of the high school athletics, leader oi commpnity singing and director of the Elks’ band, will probably leave th: city this summer and move to Lisbon, where he will be an instructor andi leader. of North Dakota’s “Million Dol | lar Band.” t ! A committee representing the Lis-| bon school board was in the city last week ‘and: offered Mr. Boise,a position with the schools of that cty at aicon- siderably higher salary than he has been receiving here. Every effort was made by the Bismarck school, board to\meet the increase offered Mr. Boise, but as it would disrupt present salary schedules of the ‘city schools, the city will probably loose: Mr. Boise’s ser- vices in his many capacities. Mr. Boise has not definitely decided on the Lisbon school board’s proposal but it is understood that he has.tacit: | ly agreed to accept the position, which will be that of principal of the Lisbon school.
