PRACTICAL PATRIOTISM. Education of Aliens. The Society of the Sons of the American Revolution has done good work during the last twenty years in the erection of numerous monu ments and tablets commemorative of the important events and the eminent patriots of the War for Independence. Much has also been accomplished toward the permanent preservation of the records of that period. During the last four years the Society has been carrying on a still greater work in preserving the principles and the iastitutions founded by the men of I776. The millions of aliens in the United States are being taught what the Nation stands for, what it means for them to become a part of the body politic, participating in the duties and responsibilities of actiYe citizens in an intelligent manner. The immigrants of today may be the good Americans of tomorrow, if they are made to know their privileges and thl'ir duties in their 2 OFFICIAL BULLETIN NATIONAL SOCIETY, S. A.
