Citizenship Made Certain For Man of 68 Ballston Spa—"Judge, I'd like to get the matter of my citizenship straightened out," said white-haired Charles Houseman, 68, of Schuy- lerville. in Naturalization Court here yesterday. "I would like to die an American citizen," he exclaimed earnestly. "You know, I think I'm going to let you,' remarked Supreme Court Judge Ellsworth C. Lawrence quietly. "The question is," said the gov- ernment examiner, "whether the man is already a citizen or not." House man has been in this coun- try since 1872. The first place he remembers, he said yesterday, was Troy, when he was four or five years old. His parents died and his brother and sister and he were placed in an orphan asylum. In 1890, he enlisted in the U. S. Army. He enlisted again in 1897 and again in 1918. When he first enlisted he believed he was an American citizen and he so in- formed officers. Afterwards he had reason to believe he was born in Montreal, Canada, but there was no record to prove it. Houseman was one of 27 per- sons admitted to citizenship.

However, from a strictly philosophical standpoint I think the saying of that ancient Greek cannot be Improved upon, for looking about us we see the tre- mendous changes that occur in our every day lives, our fellowcountry- men, and the village in which we live. "The only thing which has not changed down through the centur- ies in which the world has been in existence is God and Religion, and those things will never change." The Rev. C. N.

Citizenship Made Certain For Man of 68

Ballston Spa—"Judge, I'd like to get the matter of my citizenship straightened out," said white-haired Charles Houseman, 68, of Schuy-lerville. in Naturalization Court here yesterday. "I would like to die an American citizen," he exclaimed earnestly.

"You know, I think I'm going to let you,' remarked Supreme Court Judge Ellsworth C. Lawrence quietly.

"The question is," said the gov­ernment examiner, "whether the man is already a citizen or not."

House man has been in this coun­try since 1872. The first place he remembers, he said yesterday, was Troy, when he was four or five years old. His parents died and his brother and sister and he were placed in an orphan asylum.

In 1890, he enlisted in the U. S. Army. He enlisted again in 1897 and again in 1918. When he first enlisted he believed he was an American citizen and he so in­formed officers. Afterwards he had reason to believe he was born in Montreal, Canada, but there was no record to prove it.

Houseman was one of 27 per­sons admitted to citizenship. The cases of John Divick of Ballston Spa. Agatha Arrabito of Saratoga Springs, Urbanski Wladyslaw of Ushers, were continued, while the case of Giovanni Notaro, of Mech-anicville was adjourned

Saratoga Chapter Daughters of the American Revolution, present­ed Citizenship mrnuals to all ad­mitted, presentations being made by Mrs. Walter A. Bi .tten, regent, and Mrs. W. Howard Moody, chair­man of Americanism of the chap­ter.

AT THE CAIX of the calendar yesterday afternoon, 188 cases were marked ready. Thirteen cases were reported as settled a n d fourteen were marked over the term.

Cases settled were: Lois Stickle vs. Skidmore College, negligence; Frank Rainville vs. Abso-Fresh Bakeries, Inc., negligence and breach of warranty; Theresa Guido vs. Minnie Fleischer, negli­gence; Matilda Sodemann vs. Leonard A. Adler, negligence; Harry Castle vs. Mae G. Donald­son,, statutory contract.

Madelyn Reilly, Pierce R. Moore vs. Fred Beck, Walter Shields and Lillian Shields, negligence; Albert Arnold, Florence Arnold, Esther Cleveland vs. Bernard S. Lonergan, negligence; Henry J. Parkis vs. Jo­seph Mack, recover money dam­ages; Kenneth Bennet vs. Harold F. Chaffee and Glenn Erwin, to recover damages; Gertrude Barlow vs. Otto Kreutzer, negligence.

THOMAS D. DENTY, of Ball­ston, was named -". eman of the Grand Jury by Judge Lawrence and Mrs. Catherine M. Hayner, Halfmoon, was named vice fore­man, the first woman to be so ap­pointed. Hospital Notes

Corinth—The Rev. C. Walter Kessler, pastor of the Methodist Episcopal Church, last night ad­dressed the members of the Metho­dist Men's Club on the topic, "The Philosophy . of Change." at the weekly banquet held in the church dining room.

"An old Greek philosopher once said," the Rev. Kessler stated, "that the central force of man and the world was change.

"Since that time, of course, science has accepted the theory that electricity is the underlying base of the world. However, from a strictly philosophical standpoint I think the saying of that ancient Greek cannot be Improved upon, for looking about us we see the tre­mendous changes that occur in our every day lives, our fellowcountry-men, and the village in which we live.

"The only thing which has not changed down through the centur­ies in which the world has been in existence is God and Religion, and those things will never change."

Dinner was served at cost. The group gave Oscar Putnam a vote of thanks for the excellent dinner.
