D. A. R. Notes
V. Weatherford of Aroany, "and be
lieves that It is the most important
work of the Islands. It is service
to humsnlty."
After the Immigrants have ad
Justed themselves they are asked
If they would like to sew or knit.
Some aay "yes" at once while others
hesitate, fearing they cannot afford
it. Then It la explained to them
how and why the D. A. R. provides
the materials to keep them busy.
and their thankful expressions are
moBt gratifying. On the first piece
of material given to a newcomer
Is pinned a slip of paper saying:
"This material la given with no
expense to you by the National
Society Daughters of the American
Revolution to help pass the time
pleasantly while you are detained
on the island. The finished product
is yours to do with as you wish

Angel Island, lying In the bay of
San Francisco. Is one of the two
detention stations in the United
States: the other Is Ellis Island In
New York harbor. The Immigrants
coming to Angel Island are those
detailed by the boarding officer
who has found something amiss
visitors with no return date booked;
cases of illness which causes the
whole family to be detained until
the sick one Is discharged from the
hospital, relatives falling to meet
them at the dock; flaws In their
passports; and many other tech
nicalities. The Immigration service
is diligent In rounding up aliens
who have entered our country Ille
gally, those who have overstayed
their allotted time, those on false
passports, stowaways, deserters from
ship crews, those coming to com
plete their education and going to
work instead. -There are also the
Communists and . those who have
served prison terms, these people
of the criminal class are kept by
themselves in the detention station,
All these conditions existing, it I
often months before their cases arc
cleared and they are allowed
enter this country or their passage
assured home.
One man wove the wheel and
distaff (D. A. R. Insignia) with the
letters D. A. R. on the front of
his sweater. When - asked where he
obtained the design he pointed to
the D. A. R. manual. This manual
gives much valuable knowledge and
Is received with pleasure by those
coming In but with regrets by those
going out that it had not reached
them when they first came to our
country.
This cltlsenshlp manual la print
ed in 18 foreign languages as well
as In English which gives it a
unique value, and a manual la
given to each person after Its value
has been explained. Of those given
out at the two stations last yotr,
the English predominated.'
