WhatBinks Learned

XTOUNG Cicero Bnks was an
erudite youth. and regular
demon for knowledge forsooth.
At his studies he "swotted" to tell you
the truth, for eight or ten hours every
day. To give you some little idea Of
his worth, he knew to a fraction the
ge Of the earth, the actual weight of
the moon and its girth. and how far
all the stars we're away.
He could tell you the reason why
eggs are not meat. why toadstools and
hedgehogs are not good to eat. a aso
why there can never he cold without
heat, and why bumblebees don't make
honey He could analyze whisky and
black currant tart, and repeat Shake
speares plays il you gave him start
In fact. he was crammed fun Of science
and art, knowing even why Robey is
funny.
"One can ne'er learn too much" with
a smile he would say But he altered
his mind, overhearing one day two
friends, who imagined him out OF the
way, stating facts new to Binks with
out doubt
What an ugly old beggar that Binks
is" said one Said the other, The
biggest ass under the sun And the
knowledge Binks learned by the time
they had done. he'd have been much

" HE roads at Slushton-in-Mud were
in a very bad state. but no one
seemed to worry much about 1t
until a member Of the parish council
went TO London on q short holiday
While there he was greatly impressed
by the wood paving in the streets.
which ne thought was exactly what
was wanted at slushton. and on his
return he at once drew the attention
of his fellow councillors to the matter
To his surprise he did not meet with
much support, some objecting on ac-
count OF expense. while others did not
seem - realize what he was talking
about. He was rather upset. and after
an exciting argument ne exc aimed.
We'll gentlemen. you can say what
you like about the difficulty Of US get
ting wood paving, but l can't see any
difficulty All that is necessary is for
US to put our heads together, and then
we shall get it,"

There is an old legend about the
founding Of Westminster Abbey that
places it as early as the beginning of
the seventh century. When the in
habitants of Kent had been convert
ed by Saint Augustine, an influential
and noble-born Roman, Mellitus, was
consecrated first bishop of London,
and he persuaded the king of the East
Saxons to built a church to Saint
Peter at Thorneye, the spot where the
abbey now stands. This church was
to be consecrated on Sunday early
in 616.
