sagcome _THE EVENING WORLD, FRIDAY, JANUARY 39, 1920, — >» FOREIGN-BORN READERS TELL IN THEIR LIFE STORIES WHAT AMERICA HAS DONE FOR THEM! Strikingly Interesting: Recitals of Many Benefits Obtained in Their Adopted Land—No Chance for Red Doctrines With Such Results, WHAT AMERICA HAS DONE FOR ME What of the foreign- born: who tio tea lived in the United States and earned to admire and uphold its institutions and Government? What of the aliens who have changed their alienism for a loyal Americanism that will stick to them, their children and their children’s ehildren? Now is the moment to hear from them. Their testimony can be a powerful aid toward nullifying the de structive schemes of aliens who stay alien. What has America done for me that makes me believe it, as it stands, the best country in the world to live in? For the most pointedly helpful letters from foreign-born, telling out of their own experience what benefits they have found in the United States that they could not have found in other countries, The Evening World offers prizes as follows: A First Prize of $50; a Second Prize of $25; ten other prizes of $10 each; fifty prizes of $5 each. Letters should not contain more than three hundred words. Ability to say much in short space will count. Take time to be bfief. Under his signature at the end of the letter each writer should give, not necessarily for publication, his address, occupation, age, the name of the country from which he came, the length of ‘time he has been in the United States and his status as to citizenship.
