(2) You are a naturalized citizen if you have completed your naturaliza-j tion; that is, if you have "taken final papers." But you are not a citizen if you have only declared your inten tion to become a citizen (that is, if! you have only "taken out first pa pers") ; in the latter case you are only a "declarant." j You are also a naturalized citizen if, although foreign born, your father; or surviving parent became fully; naturalized while you were under 21 j years of age, and if you came to the United States under 21.

This does not ask what you once; did, nor what you have done most of| the time, nor what you are best fitted i to do. It asks what your job is right) now. State briefly as "Farmer,*' i "Miner," "Student," "Laborer (on? 'irm in rnllir?<r mill in niitnmnhilf*. i wagon or other factory)," "Machinist; in automobile factory/' etc. If youj hold an office under State or federal government, name the office you hold, j If you are in one of the following of- j fices or employments, use one of the names hereafter mentioned: "Customhouse clerk," "employed in' **5. +ran<3Tr?issinn nf thf* mails." or i /'employed in an armory, arsenal, or navy yard," "mariner, actually em ployed in the sea service of citizen or merchant within the United States." 8.

If it is true that there is another mouth than your own which you alone have a duty to feed, do not let your Military ardor interfere with the wish of the nation to reduce war's misery to a minimum. On the other hand, unless the person you have in mind is solely dependent on you. do not hide behind petticoats or children. 10. Married or single (which)- Race (specify which)? This does not ask whether you were once married, but whether you are married now. In answer to the ques tirm as tn vour race, state briefly whether "Caucasian," "Mongolian/' "Negro," "Malayan," or "Indian." 11. What military service have you had? Rank? Branch? Years?

Your answer touching these things will be important in supporting the claim you now intend to make in your ans wer to the present questions. Be sure, therefore, that the grounds you now state are in conformity with your onworc to mipstions 7 and 8. In stating grounds you claim as exempt ing you, use one of the following terms: If you claim to be an execu tive, legislative, or judicial officer of the State or nation, name your office and say whether it is an office of the State or nation. If you claim to be a member of a religious sect whose creed forbids its members to partici pate in war in any form, sf mply name the sect.

E-73 MAKES HER MAIDEN SPEECH; GETS WOMEN ON WAR MAP Washington, May 28.?Visibly ner vous, but spurred on by cheers and applause, Miss Jeanette Rankin! con gresswoman from Montana, made her j iuaiueu speewi xix wc uvu^c. ui * v j sentatives. Woman's work was her | theme. She not only made her speech j but had an amendment passed to the I Lever food survey bill?all in five ; minutes. Thf. amendment read: "Provided", that the secertary of ag J riculture shall, so far as is practica ble, engage 'he services of women for the work herein provided for." The "work" indicated is the food conservation, elimination of waste and increased production as carried in j the bill. The sum of $2,500,000 is set aside for these purposes. j Miss Rankin's speech came as a sur prise. She has paid close attention tc j voies on ine noor, uut nas maue m ! public utterance except before the wo man suffrage committee. When Rep ' resentative Hamlin of Missouri, whc I temporarily occupied the chair, rec 1 ognized the ,;lady from Montana,'* th? I nsnallv rioisv and boisterous hous* ! became suddenly silent and attentive i The only living congresswomar braced herself against the back of th? seat in front of her, cleared her throat ! and began: j "The work provided for in this para ! grapn sucn as gauieimg lxnuimauuH i extending and enlarging the news ser | vice and preventing waste includes ac tivities," she continued. "They are sc l seing women fill," she began. j She spoke deliberately and calmly, t "Women are well fitted for these ac ! tivites," she contnued. "They are sc | closely related to the home. It is sell evident that women are going to fill many positions that have been filled 1 by men in the past. "Women officials, with their under standing and sympathy for home prob lems, will inspire confidence in the home, the home woman, and will en courage her to cooperate with the gov ernment in this emergency." j By the time the congresswoman hac , proceeded thus far the reporters, whc 1 were struggling in the press gallery j with their notes, were handed care ! fully prepared advance copies of he] j speech. "Our higher educational institu tions," she went on, "have been turn j ing out a large body of women whc are trained to deal with fundamentals from a scientific standpoint. We have in these women a new source of ser vice which we should not waste at this time. I feel sure that these wo men will be capable and faithful in doing this constructive work. It would ; be to the advantage of the government to utilize the services of trained wo i men in the place wher they could ! count uie most for the country during ' this present crisis and also in the fu ture. ! "Food conservation on a national , scale is but the natural outgrowth of I woman's traditonal work. Women in the past have been concerned with the immediate preparation of food from one meal to another. T.iey must j ? a i __ r ?*U ~ now consmer me iooa suppiy ior mu year. They must be individually con cerned with the food supply for the whole country. And now as we face this international problem < f feeding the people the responsibility is placed upon all of us." There was no opposition to the Ran-] kin amendment. There was not a vote against it. j "I would not represent the chivalry] nor the good judgment of the commit-1 j tee if 1 made any objection/' said Mr. I Lever of South Carolina, who en-: ' gineered th* Dending bill through the ! house. i The Thicker of the Tvro. Case and Comment. ! One of the best known mining men j in the West was on the witness stand; , as an expert in an important mining case in Nevada, and was under cross examination by a rather young and "smart" attorney. The question relat ed to the form that the ore was found in, generally described as "kidney lumps." "Now, Mr., iVrhatname," said the at torney, "how large are those lumps? ! You say they are oblong?are they as ! long as my head?" "Yes," replied the witness, "but not ! en thirlr " FROM ONLY ONE SOUBfCE DID HELP EVER COME FOUND JTST WHAT WAS NECES SARY TO MAKE DESIRED CHANGE IS VERY GRATEFUL ( Said at One Time She Feared Improre mett Was Impossible.
