Atherica opens wide the door of advancement to those who ap- proach it with an earnest determina- tion to labor for progress. “The alien in America today has advantages which were unknown to those of us who came to this country as immigrants 40 years ago. On every side he finds hands extended to help him on his way to independence and prosperity. He finds here opportuni- ties, for educating himself and his children that were unknown when I came to the United States, It rests with him to take advantage of these for- tunate circumstances. His task is to find his chosen work and to labor at it with diligence and earnestnees. For work is happiness. It is his duty to acquaint himself with the government institutions, the customs and the ideals of America and to give himself whole- heartedly to their support. He owes himself the duty of learning to know America. He owes America the duty of supporting her free institutions. He must shun the propagandist who would preach the downfall of the republic. “If he looks about him he will find thousands of successful men of Am- erica who came here aliens like him- self. They have forged to the front in every walk of life.” POLICEMAN FINDS OWN SON GUILTY e -— New York Bluecoat Follows Trail That Convicts His Boy of Theft. | New York, Dec. 22%-John Sheft- meyer of Jersey City ig'the father of a zo-yeur-old boy, but he is also a member /of the Jersey cly police de- partmen{ and has bgen ‘It many years.

The tires were stolen last Septem- ber 18 from the automobile service station of Leon Berkowitz at 213 Sea- view avenue, Jersey City. Patrolman Sheffmeyer was assigned to investi- gate the case, and it was only a few days later that he found evidence which indicated to him that the trail would lead stralght to his own home and to his only son. But he kept on. He did not even ask to be taken off the case. He ate with his son and he slept in the same house with him night after night, and during the day he was working, gathering evidence that more and more proved that the boy had had something to do with the theft. Finally the boy was arrested: The actual arrest was made by another policeman, but the other man could not give testimony for Sheffmeyer. So the policeman went on the stand and told what he had done and how he had learned the guilt of his own son. NEW WINDFALL FOR JERSEY.
