New Feature
MIR PEXNSYLVANISCH DEITSCHE
Startinir With This Issue
With this Lssue we Introduce a new feature to our readers. Its title "We Pennsylvania Oermans" is indicative of its content, be- cau.so the reading matter which it contains describes the peculiar heritage of the people Incorrectly known as Pennsylvania Dutch. Choice bits of dialect poetry, short historical sketches and inter¬ esting chit-chat.s about the colorful lore and folkways of these early Americans will be presented in columnar form each week throughout the year.
A large percentage of our readers are entitled to .share in the rich h'Tltage which the.se early Oermans have built up during more than two centuries on American soil. They helped to make America and to make America great. In such times as these it is well that proper credit and understanding be accorded to all Americans, regardless of their origins. The Pennsylvania Oermam were the largest non-English group In colonial times. They were the pioneers in the great American melting-pot, and their deeds and experiences should be of Interest to all who wish to know America.
Naturally In the process of Amerlcanlaatk>n many singular features which characterised the first settlers have become indis¬ tinct or obliterated. Certainly there Is no thought of reviving an age that is dead or of practicing customs which have outlived their usefulness. However, as the heirs of the past we are entitled to know whence, why and how we came to be what we are.
The dialect has stubbornly defied annihilation. Even today there are thousands of Pennsylvanlans who think in the dialect. In submitting dialect materials we find that spelling beeomea a difficult problem. This column will adhere to a aet of rutas agreed upon by dialectal writers and which appear to be baaed on sound principles. Readers may find the arrangement of letters unfamiliar at first, but with a little patlenoe and by uttering the aound aloud they will not experience difficulty very long.
The editors of the column are ouutandlng authorttles on the Pennsvlvania Oermans. We trust that our raaders will profit ky reading MIR PENNSYLVANISCH DBrTBOHB.
It was announced by the publicity department of the Nazareth Rod and Oun Club that a special meeting will be held Monday evening in tha Legion Home of particular Interest to fishermen.
Movies taken this Spring and showing the release of trout being pUeed In the BushkUl Creek will be shown as a special attraction. Other entertainment of a special nature will also be featured at this meeting. Every member of the club is urged to attend.

CHORAL SOCIETY TO GIVE SPRING CONCERT
There Is evidence of interest and enthU3ia.=m in the final preparation-; for the Spring Concert of the Naz¬ areth Choral Society which will bi held Monday evening, April 13. in the Nazareth Moravian Church Weekly rehearsals are being held with Ellis C .Schneebeli conducting and Charles W. Hess and Daniel Rohn as accompanists.
The chorus will be augumented by a guest chorus, "The Festival Male Chorus", of Allentown and Mrs. Ruth Phol Orammes, harpist, of Bethle¬ hem, and Miss Jean L. Kem, flutist, of Nazareth.
The Nazareth Chorus is unique and fortunate because It Is able to present trained and accomplished soloists from Its own roster of mem¬ bers who have shared their time and talent unselfishly. They are Mrs. Wilmer Heyer, Miss Helen Shlf¬ fer, Mrs. Walter Bender, Miss Fan¬ nie Oemet, Mrs. Hattie Happel, John Sickles and David Beaier.
Mrs. Earl Stroman. president of the Society, deserves much credit for her untiring activity In the welfare of the Chorus.

THE TRUTH ABOUT QUESTIONS RELAT¬ ING TO INCOME
Tliere has been considerable mis- repnesentation of the questions re¬ lating to income included In the 1940 Census of Population. It is In order, therefore, to describe Just what Information is called for by these Inquiries.
It Is to be emphasized that con¬ trary to the misstatements which have t>een made, no question Is asked concerning the person's total In¬ come. The first of the two questions calls for the amount of wages or salary received in cash up to $5000; amounts over $5,000 are to be re¬ turned "over $5,000". Furthermore, the answer to this question is not to include money received from business proflt.s, receipts from sale of farm products, profe.sslona; fees, interest, dividends, rent.-, or any other than wage or s.ilary income.
Tlic second of the income inquir¬ ies merely calls for a "YES" or "NO" answer to the questim. "Did this person receive In.-ome of $30 or more from source- other than money wages or .«.ilary?" The amount of such income U NOT to be specified
Tlie questions relating to income are Included In the 1940 Cen.sus in accordance with the Act of Con¬ gress requiring a Census of Unem- plo>Tnent. Unemployment experts, repre.sen tat Ives of organized labor. and officials of agencies concerned with the problem of unemployment are agreed that the wage income of the American people is the best poaslble measure of the extent of unemployment, pari-tlme employ¬ ment, and irregular employment.
TYie Census Bureau is not inter¬ eated In the wage Income of any particular person or family. The data are completely confidential, cannot be used for purposes of tax¬ ation, regulation, or investigation. Ute wage income information fur¬ nished to the enumerators win be used only for tho eompUatkm of the facts about one of the nation's most (Oratlnosd oa Taga Tluw)

Now, About This Census
To ease up on a seemingly creal d "tension", it may be well to call at¬ tention to the Constitution of The United States which states, in part: "The actual enumeration shall be made within three years after the first meeting of the Congress of the ^ United States, and within every .'^ubstquent term of ten years, in ' such manner a^ they shall by law direct." ,
1940.   therefore,   has   been   desig- i nated a.s the   •cen.su.s" year and all j rl'izens   are   urged   to   aid   census tak'r.s   in    obtaining    an   accurate' record.     "To    know    Amerlc.i.    tell America. ¦
