School Tess in Pennsylvania

The history questions submitted to pu-
pills of IA and Is in the ninth grade of
a school district in a small Pennsylvania
city, Allentown, have been made public
We give these test history questions in
full. as follows:
l. Discuss the antiquity of man.
g Give an account in detail of the early
forms of writing.
8. Give detailed account of the Aryan
race.
4. Give brief history of the Assyrians.
the Egyptians.
6. Discuss commerce among the Phoeni-
clans.
7. Where did the Phoenicians establish
colonies? And why?
s. Discuss the important customs of the
BabyIonans
9. How does science establish the home
Of the first parents?
10. Give a description of Egypt, the con-
dition of the soil, etc.
If these questions had been put to Penn
sylvanias machine politicians from Boies
Penrose downward or upward as the case
may be, how many correct answers would
have been written down on the spot?
1t is safe to say not one. Not one person
in hundred could satisfactorily answer
these questions without consulting an
encyclopedia. And the school children
are not permitted to consult anything or
anybody. When children of IA or 10 are
expected to carry on their minds at all
times the worlds history from the very
outset, the impossible is sought. No
child can do it, and few adults for that
matter. Such tests of young pupils are
simply amazing, and the Pennsylvania
newspapers are demanding that they be
abolished.

aviators will come from Texas in re-

Greater Birmingham needs them to pro-
mote it's ascendancy as a trade center

will be a great event. Human flight is
engrossing the attention of the civilized
world, and the Business Mems league hit
the nail on the head when it secured
the Frenchmen. The interest taken in
aviation, the low fares. offered by the
railroads. and the fact that no biplane or
monoplane has ever sailed over Alabama
soil will all aid in bringing here on the
days of the meet vast numbers of peo-
pie. Those days will be notable days in
the history of this city

About three weeks after the election
he got Colonel Henderson in his Office
and said; 4 don't think we can beat this

run an anti-amendist and we've decided
to run you. Weakley will have to come

ITY COMMITTEE
MAY MEET SOON

That the city democratic executive COM
mittee will hold meeting during the
next ten days is regarded as highly
probable; that the committee at this time
will also decide upon an early primary
is regarded as an assured fact.
Silent warfare has been waging in the
committee for some time and while there
have been efforts to get the committee
osether the strenuous efforts OF some
members of the committee to prevent
the holding of the meeting have so far
been successful.
The committee is divided on the ques-
ton of an early or late primary and
those favoring the late primary are said
to have opposed meeting of the commit
tee lust at this time. There has been
a general sentiment however, that the
committee should meet and decide upon
things No matter whether the primary
IS to be held early or late the senti-
nent has been that the date should be
settled upon now and several members
of the committee who first opposed the
holding of a meeting are leaning to this
opinion.
AT present the Guy democratic eoh-
mittee is one of the livest bodies in the
state There has been steady gum
shoeing'' going on in each of two fac
lions with good percentage of the COM
mittee who apparently don't give rap
either one way or the other cumming
up the game by their refusal to side
with either faction. The sentiment to
hold an early meeting, however has
grown greatly during the past several
days.

isfied with either an early or late. pri-

GaYaETmeRt BnildllgS

Tie government is about to erect a
million-dollar building in Richmond ON the
site of the old custom house and post
office and some adjacent property ac-
quired for the purpose The Richmond
custom house was built before the war.
and it was considered at the time one of
the handsomest federal buildings in the
country. It is of solid granite and is
quite a large structure but Richmond
has outgrown it.
/ The custom house was the only build
ing in the business district of Richmond
that withstood the conhagration when
the Confederate capital was set on fire
at the close of the war And as it is
in good condition today and handsome
enough for almost any city, and, as it is,
moreover, an interesting landmark, it
seems a pity to raze it: but the site was
the only one available from a viewpoint
of convenient location and there was
hardly anything left for the government
to do but utilize the ground.
Now, if Richmond, very conservative
city, with population of only about 12O-
600, is entitled to a million-dollar federal
building, Birmingham, rapidly growing
city, with a population of probably 1885,
600 to 100000 should be able to induce
Uncle Sam to erect building here cost
ing something like 100000. Birmingham
needs today a government building of
large dimensions; but this city has a
great future and 20 years hence its popu-
lation will exceed, it is reasonable to
say, the half-million mark The build
ing which the government erects here
will certainly be solid enough to stand
for so years, and from the present out
look Birmingham's population will be
close on to a million some years before
1850
Congressman Underwood will take up
the proposition of a new building just SO
soon as the opportunity presents itself
He appreciates, of course Birmingham 5
cent possibilities of Birmingham a decade
or two hence. When the time comes for
moving in the matter 1t should be COM
paratively easy for Mr.. Underwood to go
Richmonds100 per cent better.

New Plant Taking Orders

The building at 113 North Twentieth
street is being reInodeled preparatory TO
putting in new outfit of fixtures. This
work is being done by the Queenstown
Manufacturing company and was one OF
the large orders with which that company
began business last week 1t is claimed
by the managers of the Queenstown COM
pany that the Industries now established
at Queenstown will save not less than
$500 900 annually to Birmingham and the
Birmingham district that is now going
elsewhere. This is in line with the senti-
ment that the Chamber Of Commerce is
engaged in creat ting viz. 'patronize home

the community, for every dollar left here
means that much more available for the
upbuildng of birmingham.
