Declares Public Schools of Na- tion Should Be Open Six- ', teen Hours a Day. ‘The plans of the American Forum, f @evived by The Evening World and ) & mumber of citizens, continues to nw receive the approval of all those who Wish to see better opportuntties for immigrants coming to these shore and to aid them in qualifying for th teste of naturalization. As from Mayor Mitchel and Presi- dent Willlam G. Willcox of the Board of Education, public oMcials and workers for better community sentiment, like Miss Margaret Wil- @on, daughter of the President, whoss views wero expressed in The Evening ‘World yesterday, so a warm approval of the use of the public achools for this truly educational purpose ts had from Frederic C, Howe, Commissioner of Immigration, sociologist and econ- omist. This ts what the Commissioner of Tmmigration thinks of the American Forum: “IT am in heartiest sympathy with the Forum idea for the Americaniza- tion of the immigrant as advocated by The Evening World; and I am gratified by the support which has been given to it by the Board of Edu- cation. And Iam most gratified at its being undertaken under public aus- pices in the public schools.

Pelitaer Puilding, New York City, N.Y. gassy or out-of-order stomach ¢ where the Americanisation process ought to begin, for the average immi- ‘ant coming to this country knows government only as a thing of oppres- sion, taxation or Inquisition. And the Public school house is the best of all possible places for him to learn the | difference between this country and | Europe. HOPES THE FORUMS WILL BE DEMOCRATIC. | "“Whea we consider that nearly #0 | per cent. of the people of New York are either foreign born or immedi- | ately descended from persons of for- eign birth, we ses the magnitude of opportunity for this assimilative proc- 89 in this the port of entry for eight-tenths of the emigration to this | country. | “And I Qope that these forums will | be democratic forums in the real sense | of the word. By that I mean a forum dn which the immigrant will feel that he has the right of common ownership | and common use. For the public school |{8 public propert, It ought to be used sixteen hours @ day. There is| colossal waste involved in the use of; | schools only irom six to seven Sours a |day for educational purposes when thoy might be used all the yi ‘ound sixteen hours a day for a great variety of purposes. “I am particularly interested in the forum idea; and by that I understand the use of the public schools for ad- | dresses on public questions; for the | |freest possible discussions; for account- | Inga by public officials; and for democ- racy to express itself. Such a forum can be made a kind of perpetual rof- erendum in which the people will be linformed of the actions of public of- ficials on the one hand, and be able to express their own wants on the other jhand. This is a great idea. If we can | once get the old New England idea at work in New York, we will quickly get bi of bad or corrupt politics in the city. | PUBLIC SCHOOL AS FREE MEET- | ING PLACE. “I hope the public school will be used ‘ot only for this purpose, but asa free | neeting place for other purposes as well. Why should not the labor unions |use the public schools for their par- | ticular purposes? They are compelled | to rent halls or go to saloons. And the public schools are right at hand with rooms that could easily be made avail- able for these purposes. “The trade union is a real American- ization agency, It ts an agency in which the workers meet on a demo- cratic basis. To the average man his Job is the most important thing in the world. Through unions the immigraut, as well as the native born, improves his own condition without help from the outside. And this is about the only | organization which the worker, be h |an immigrant or native born, himself mic or industrial problem. Henry Ford of Detroit has the right idea of Americanization. He says that if we pay the immigrants decent wages they will Americanize themselves. They want good things just the same 4s wo want good things. And they take to them just as read- fly as do the English, Scotch or the Irish when they have the money and leisure to do #0. “But so long as men are working ten, eleven and twelve hours a day; so long as their children are worked to exhaustion in factories, they have jot much time to think of anything else except sleep when they get home. You cannot have good citizens who are underfed, and you cannot make a man very enthusiastic about demoe: racy if he Is living under such condi- tions as I have seen in the mines and mills of many communities in thie country. HOW TO HELP THE IMMIGRANT HELP HIMSELF. “One Way to help the immigrant to help himself is to give him the ballot, and with it education, Then he will be in @ position to ald in changing the lawa so that they will be more just to those who labor, and to bring about legislation In his own interest. For in the end the condition of the im migrant, his affection for America, his patriotism, will depend upon the way the country treats him, and his own economic well-being. And that is the kind of Americanization I am primarily interested in—an American- jzation that will give not only the foreign born but the native born a chance to get out onto the land (from | | which the alien sin Eure der proper conditions; to choose his own employment, much as our ances- tors did when there was free land) to be had for the asking; as well as| to work out social legislation that will) rally improve the worker's condi “And it is because I feel that these big economic reforms, in which the | Slates 1s away behind Den- | ngland, Germany, Switzerland Australia, and even Canada, will only be worked out when we have a real democracy that I look upon the forum | for the free discussioa of poll | Jabor conditions legislation as an agency of «reat value not only for Americanizing the alien but democratizing America as well,” f CAN'T FIND DANDRUFF. | Every bit of dandruff disa ppears | after one or two applications of Dan- derine rubbed well into the scalp with | the finger tips. Get a 25-cent bottle of Danderine at any drug store and) save your hair. After a few applica-| tions you can't find a particle of dan- druff or any falling hair, and the, scalp will never itch.—Advt. PAIN, PAIN, PAIN, — STOP NEURALGIA, — Rub nerve torture, pain and, misery right out with | “St. Jacobs Oil.” You are to be pitied—but remem-| ber that neuralgia torture and pain fe the easiest thing in the world to| stop. Please don't continue to suf- fers it's so needle Get from your druggist the small trial bottle of “St, Jacobs Oil;” pour a little in your hend and gently rub the “tender nerve” or sore spot, and instantly— yes, immediately—all pain, ache and soreness is gone. “St. Jacobs Oil” conquers pain—It ts perfectly harmless ‘and doesn't burn or discolor the skin. Nothing else gives relief so quickly. It pever fails to stop neuralgia pain instantly, whether in the face, head or any part of the body.
