MEN or OLD WERE LEARNED.
Residents of Babylon 1000 Years Ago
Had Much Enlightenment.

Had Much Enlightenment.
st. Louis Post Dispatch Education
in the time of King Hammurabi, some
1000 years ago, was in f1ourishing
condition. Vincent Scheil, a German
archaeologist, recently unearthed
schoolhouse in Babylon just opposite
the great temple. From inscribed
books, inscriptions, ETC., Father Scheil
has reconstructed the life of an ancient
Babylonian school.
The scholars sat on the floor in
rows, each with soft brick. On these
the small boy engraved with the diff
cult cuneiform characters. When he
made them wrong the teacher smudged
them over, as is attested by several
bricks with the thumb marks plainly
visible. In che room the scholar was
taught how to write the elaborate and
highly poetical forms of adulation
which are preserved on monuments.
Much attention was given to weights
and measures. arithmetic and geome-
try, but the chief branches were gram
mar, rhetoric and the expression of
fiattering forms.
Girls, it seems, got pretty much the
same education as the boys. Father
Scheil found contracts which had been
revised and corrected by a woman
learned in the law named Amatboen.
On the whole, education and civiliza-
ton under King Hammurabi were in
very advanced condition. They knew
nothing about electricity, steam power
and telephones in those days, but, con-
sidering their limited opportunities,
the Babylonians were very clever peo-
pie. The contracts revised by Miss
Amatboen were not trust contracts
and probably from the New Jersey
point CT view were primitive and crude.
But they answered the needs of high
ly complex civilization and the woman
who could draft them was probably
as good a lawyer as can be found in
New Jersey. Anyhow, her name sur
wives 1000 years. Is it likely that any
of cur lawyers will be mentioned A. D.

proceedings included speech by
Senator Simmons of North Carolina,
in support of the canal treaty and the
passage of a number of bills and reso-
lutions Senator Simmons was the
first democratic senator to favor the
measure On the floor. He announced
his disapproval of the Intervention of
the United States in the Panama re-
volt but said that as the revolution
was an accomplished fact and was
such before the treaty was made, he
could not accept the theory that the
treaty itself was invalid Among the
bills passed was one granting to cit
liens of Porto Rico and the Philippines
the right to take advantage of the
naturalization laws of this country.

consider the vote, thus leaving the

and other subjects. There was only
one speech on the canal and it was
made by Senator Stone of Missouri
who spoke on a resolution directing
the senate committee ON foreign rela-
