WHY CHILDREN LEFT SCHOOL
A Test In New England Town Showed
an Arithmetic Course Which Ex-
perts Didn't Know.

At recent school conference in
Philadelphia DR.. Leonard P. Ayres Of
the Russell Sage foundation told an
interesting story.
He and his staff, he said, had been
asked to examine the school curri-
-culum Of a certain large New England
town. He discovered that most of the
children dropped out of that school at
the seventh grade. Probing further.
he found that the course in arithme-
tic In that grade dealt almost wholly
with the various tables Of measure
.ment. He took ten representative
problems from this course and submit
ted them to ten business and profess
sional executives in New York city,
men whose salaries range from $4,000
to $4,000 a year. The story con-
tinues:
"The highest mark was scored BY
the secretary of we'll known propa.
gandist society In social work. His
grade was twenty-five There were
several xeroes. Two Of the problems
were concerned with buying and sell
ing paper in bulk. One of the men
who took the examination was the ed
itor of magazine and another was
the head Of a book-publishing house.
Both failed on these two problems.
They declared that the terms employ
ed In the problems had not been in
current use for fifty years. Each Of
the ten men explained his low grade
by saying: Il learned that stun once,
but haven't had any use for It

ORIGIN OF THE NAME MARY

There are few Catholic parents to
whom daughter is born who hest
tate to give the child the name of
Mary In SO doing they wish to place
the infant under the protection of
Mary, the Mother of Christ, and they
are not troubled by genealogical dis
cussions about the name. Hitherto
the liturgy of the Church and tradi-
ton have agreed in regarding the
name as of purely Hebrew origin and
meaning "Star of the Sea-" In a
recent article the German theologian,
Father Zorell, asks if we may not
consider the name as formed of two
elements Hebrew and Egyptian.
AS matter of fact, the name Mary
is first heard in Egypt, Miriam, the
sister of Moses, being the first person
in the worlds history to bear the
name The Israelites had, in the days
Of Moses, dwelt for four centuries in
the land of the Pharaohs, and proper
names formed with "Mer," "Meri" and
"Mor," signifying who loves were
common in Egypt. Thus Maria,

portion of the name lam" with "iah,
