GERMANS AT GRIPS ON BANKS OF THREE RUSSIAN RIVERS By Auociated Press London, Dec. 22.—The eighty-mile front in Poland to the west of Warsaw, where the Germans and Russians are at grips on the banks of the Bzura, Rawka and Piliea rivers, continues to be the scene of the most desperate fighting in either the eastern or west ern arenas of the war. When tho weather conditions under which the troops are fighting are re called the sufferings of the men in the trenches rnnv to some extent be ap- Dreciated. The country is experiencing tho full force of winter. Each side has sustained tremendous losses in this battle of the rivers, and, although the Germans claim to have forced the Russian line at a number of points, it is nexertheless a fact, according to re ports reahing London, that the Rus sians have been strengthened, and it is difficult to realize which contender has the strategic advantage.

NEWS OF STEELTON&OTHER NEARBY PL Steelton M. E. Church Making Good American Citizens Out •f Foreigners in Nifht, School Should you have quietly opened one of the doors leading Into the basement of the First Methodist Church, Fourth and Pine streets, last evening, and peered Inside, you would have seen a remarkable sight. Seated about rough pine tables, backs bent studiously over the papers spread out before them, or peering Intently towards the front of the room where a gray-haired, kindly faced man was drawing crayon pic tures on a rough blackboard, you would have seen little groups of shab by foreigners. Foreigners? Beg: pardon—future American citizens of the better class, was what was meant. For that is just what the Rev. J. H. Royer and his alert, capable corps of assistants are turning out from this cosmopolitun group of students, in the "English School For Foreign-speaking Resi dents of Steelton," conducted by the First Methodist Church. Rather a long name, that, but it signifies pos sible the greatest movement over un dertaken for the advancement of the civic welfare of Steelton. Tliose Wliom Yon Will Mud Here in this school, about which little has been written and less is known, you will find men bent, long before their time, from their heavy labors before the blinding furnaces at the big steel plant; you will find the ambitious youth of foreign parentage who already realizes the handicap of faulty language, and wishes to es cape; you will find the red-cheeked fgirl of "sweet sixteen," who although she toils long hours in an ill-smelling cigar factory, still knows how to smile; here you will find middle ageti women, old men, mere boys—in fact every ago is represented. And all have but one desire, one aim—to learn to speak the Englsh language correctly. Let us take one of the dozen or more tables in the room. At the foot of the table sits little Frank Orbln, 14 years old. Frank goes to a parochial school but he is ambitious and sees a chance to secure additional instruction free. Next to him sits Joseph Czegledi, an Italian. Joseph is 48 years old and is a carpenter—when he can work, but just now there is no work. Close beside the Italian, George Na gle, Iti years old, leans studiously over his "first reader."

LEARNING HOW TO BECOME GOOD AMERICAN CITIZENS •pelled to stop going to the public school to help support a large fam ily. He works in a cigar factory— now; but he isn't going to stay there ong. lie is ambitious, ho studies hard, and he will advance in life. Next coines Conrad Weiler, 17 years old. His story is practically the same as George Nagle's. He too is ambitious. At the head of the table, next to the teacher sits John Orbin, a bricklayer, 31 years old. John will not always lay bricks n the hot interior of a blast furnace. He studies too hard for that. Xo Partisanship Here At this one table the ages range from 14 to 48. At some tables there ire many women and girls. In all there are five nationalities, Croation, Servian, German, Italian and Bulgar ian—all are friends and are striving for but one end—to become good American citizens. What does this mean to Steelton? Just this: There will be less Ignor ance, less crime, less poverty. There will be a better citizenship. When these "foreigners" learn to speak and read correct English no political ward heeler will march them up to a voting place and barter their suffrage like so much merchandise. They will be cap able, clean-thinking American citi zens. I'astor Assisted by Young Teachers At the head ol' the school is the Rev. J. H. Royer, pastor of the First Meth odist Church. He is assisted by about a score of young men, girls and wo men from his church. Too much can not he said in praise of their work. Without a cent of pay they are la boring two evenings each week at the hardest kind of mental tasks. Yet they nfcver complain. Xo matter how hard it is to make a student under stand, these teachers never lose pa tience. They explain and explain and explain until the student Just must understand. Among these teachers are: Mrs. J. Elmer George. Mrs. G. O. Kilmore, Mrs. George Krump. Mrs. Burkley Franke, Mrs. W. A. Keister, Mrs. T. J.
