The people of Cairo are, and OF
right ought TO be, too busy getting to
gether for the common good to fuss
about matters of little or no import
ance. In every community persona
or factional prejudice can do more
TO retard progress than any other in

must be as matter of course, but
these do not stand in the way of pro
