When the fracas among the warring factions in the church was straighten- ed out the loal police court got a grip on §100 of John's more or less hard earned cash. Religioys matters have calmed down in past Fears in John's church and the court felt it was safe in admitting him to eitizenship. Henceforth John will be in the grip of the personal tax collector, Arrested 18 Years Ago. Antonl Groncki admitted having heen arrested 18 years ago for gam- bling. He has been in #is country 21 years but his knowledge of the laws and customs of the country do not in- dicate a stay of this length., He will try to qualify before September.

He has resided in this country for 32 years, thinking about being naturalized. Finally he made us his mind. He was admitted, the court probably figuring he would not live long enough to make another application. Martin picked a Witness who is not so deliberate. The witness left the factory where he is employed in such a hurry that he forgot his coat. The dignity of the courtroom must be upheld, particularly in mak- ing new citizens, so the witness was required to borrow a coat before ad- dressing the court. ‘Won Independence in 1920 A good Republican argument was advanced by Frank Wind, a former Austrian, when he was asked this question, “When did this country be- come independent?” He replied, “Last election.” When asked what country the section where he was born be- longs to know, he answered, “It is "hen asked where his regular wit- ness was, Anton Schiffert, an Austrian who appeared with a substitute wit- ness, answered, “He's dead.” The court considered this a satisfac- tory excuse for the absence of the missing witness and the substitute was allowed to testify: Anton was ad- mitted. _ New citizens are as follows: Great Britain and Ireland: Thomas English, Horace George Charland, James Henry Tattersall, Thomas Lee, Rose Anne Nichols.
