GERMANS AT GRIPS ON BANKS

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.

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." George was com-

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. Davis, Mrs. James Hoffer,
