Practical French Councillor.


Last month in q school in the out.
skirts of Paris the master complained
to the mayor of the village that the
absence of map of Europe made the
teaching of geography difficult for the
master and hard to be comprehended
by the pupils. The question was
thereupon submitted to the local mu-
nicipal council, and after a heated de.
bate one of the councillors asked with
considerable irritation:
why this expense? What do they
want a map of Europe for? Who
knows If one Of our children will ever
leave this commune?"
The request Of the schoolmaster was
refused.
