He touched upon the keeping of Ibawdy houses and said the officers of the law could make eases against such defendants upon the atrehgtbof the geheraLj'Qputation of the ohuse and the proprietor and that the actual 'illicit relations were not required to be proven.

Ac cording "to information thus far re ceived by the Bureau, nearly 100 oth ers have signified their intention of oining in the movement and all in dications now point to a most grat ifying record for the 1910-17 school year.

This field of 'operation-'bf the public school field "of 1 (potation of the public schools is not limited to those who have applied , for naturalization. It intended to include all foreign-born esidents whose instruction in. Eng lish and civic?
