DO YOU KNOW YOUR OWN
AGE AND BIRTHDAY ?

How old are you? When were you
born? See if you really know. See if
your children know how Old they are.
Do not laugh at these simple questions
until you try the test Assume that you
were born on March 16, and that you are
l6 years old, in what year were you
born?
According to recent issue Of the
Public Health Reports, ii is a common
occurrence TO find school children, even
HIM school pupils in the junior and
seniors years who cannot tell-~how old
they are. or who, if they know their
age, cannot tell accurately in what year
they were born.
You viii need this information when
you apply for marriage license or III
registering for voting; or in seeking a
government position; or in case you
claim that you are heir TO d fortune that
is gong 10 some other person. You may
nave 10 go under oath as to your age
when Won pay your customs duties upon
return from your next European trip,
50 you should practice up.
IL some of our states there is no birth
registration, SO you may not be able to
prove from Uhe recoius lilS4t you ever
were born This might be embarrassing
to YOU if Won want 10 marry in Europe.
Perhaps the easiest way to remember
your age is to form some jingle or
WHINE on your birth year, For instance;
In 1897 little Johnnie came from Heav-
en-, or In 1882 little Susie began &c
boo" Never mind what the rhyme is,
just 50 you remember il and if, after
reaching the age Of 40, you want to
prove that you are only % years Old
jus. change the rhyme and perhaps peo-
pie will believe you when you repeat me
jingle to prove your youth.
