About Any Country Except

Questions Asked.

LONDON, Jan. 6--To ascertain
how much boys educated in the
elementary school Of England re-
member after leaving school, several
officers in charge of recruiting de-
pots have put series of fifteen
questions to the newest recruits
The replies in many cases we're
amazing, particularly as the recruits
generally come from the larger
cities having the best ELEMENTARY
schools.
At one depot thirty-aye recruits
were examined. Fourteen, fifteen,
fourteen and eleven respectively
could not give a reply to the ques-
lions as to the identity Of Alfred the
Great, Nelson. Wellington and
Shakespeare, and many OF the others
had only vague ideas as to who these
heroes were.
To the question, what is the
United states?" sixteen replied cor
rectly, four knew something, fifteen
were entirely ignorant and one man
who had been eight years at school,
answered ian English colony"
Strangely enough even fewer knew
anything of France. When it came
to England, however, every recruit
answered correctly, althoug only If

All the necessary legislation has
been enacted in connection with the
proposed construction Of the trans
Australian railway and work on the
project, which is to be carried out
by the federal government itself,
will commence very shortly, and its
completion is looked for within three
years. The line starts from Kali
goorlie, $50 miles from Perth, one
of the eastern limits of the Western
Australian system, whence it con
meets with other railways through
south Australia, Victoria, New South
Wales and Queensland. The new
line will be 1000 miles in length
and its cost is estimated at nearly
$2O,OOO,OOO. While the railway
will be of great commercial ad-
vantage, the necessities of defense
have chiefly Influenced Australia in
making the expenditure. The coun-
