the Immigrant to Have
Place in War Program
By Associattd Prtss
' Atlantic City, N. J., March 1. —A
. nation-wide campaign for the Amer
. icanization of the immigrant will
' have a promient place in the war
program of the Department of Su
. perintendency of the National Edu
■ cation Association, according to an-
J nouncement made at the convention
of the body here to-day. Educators
. believe the work to be the most im

, H. H. Wheaton, chairman of a
> committee of one hundred appointed
by the United States Bureau of
' Education to cope with the prob
' lem, told the convention that two
1 bills on the subject had been pre
| pared by the department and urged
1 delegates to enlist the interest of
• legislators in their sections.
"Our un-Americanized aliens,"
Mr. Wheaton, "are the greatest
weakness in our chain and this
• weakness has been analyzed in
Europe and used against us."
According to statistics presented
there are 33,000,000 persons of for
' eign origin in this country, 13,000,-
t 000 being of alien birth. Five mil

CROSS, FEVERISH
CHILD IS BILIOUS
OR CONSTIPATED
Look, Mother! See if tongue is
coated, breath hot or
stomach sour.
"California Syrup of Figs" can't
harm tender stomach,
liver, bowels.
Every mother realizes, after giving
her children "California Syrup of
Figs." that this is their ideal laxa
tive, because they love Its pleasant
taste and it thoroughly cleanses the
tender little stomach, liver and
bowels without griping.
When cross, irritable, feverish, or
breath is bad, stomach sour, look at
the tongue, mother! If coated, give a
teaspoonful of this harmless "fruit
laxative," and in a few hours all the
foul, constipated waste, sour bile
and undigested food passes out of the
,bowels, and you have a well, playful
child again. When the little system
l>j full of cold, throat Bore, has stom
achache, diarrhoea, indigestion,
colic—remember, a good "inside
cleansing" should always be the first
treatment given.
Millions of mothers keep "Califor
nia Syrup of Figs" handy; they know
a teaspoonful to-day saves a sick
child to-morrow. Ask your druggist
for a bottlo of "California Syrup
of Figs," which has directions
for babies, children of all ages and
grown-ups printed on the bottle. Be
ware of counterfeits sold here, so
don't be fooled. Get the genuine,
made by "California Fig Syrup Com
pany."
