pERsIANs FOND OF sHERBE7
Much Time Is Devoted to Preparation
I Of Beverage, Of Which There Arc
. Many Varieties.

=. The great beverage in Persia IS
sherbet, which is .plentifuly supplied
and Of which there are many varieties
from the bowl Of water with a
squeeze of lemon to the clear concer-
trated juice of any sort of fruit to
which water Is added to dilute it.
The preparation Of sherbet, which is
done with greatest care, is q very, I'M
portant point in so thirsty country
as Persia, and one to which much time
Is devoted. It may be either expressed
from the, juice Of fruit freshly gath
cred or from the preserved extract of
pOmegranates, cherries or lemons,
mixed with sugar and submitted to a
certain degree Of heat to preserve
it for winter consumption.
- Another sherbet much drunk is
called guzangebben; it is made from
the honey Of the tamarisk tree. This
honey IS not the work Of the bee, but
the product of q small insect or worm
living in vast numbers under the leaves
Of the shrub. During the months of
August and September the insect is
collected and the honey is preserved.
When used for sherbet it is mixed with
vinegar and, although not SO delicious
as that made from fruit, it makes an
excellepGtemperance beverage. Only
among the rich and fashionable are
glasses used; in, all other cases sher-
bet is served in china bowls and drunk
from deep wooden spoons carved in
pearwood.

1t has been a number of years
since the wclteryeights received
very much notice.
Back in the days of Cans, Nell
son, Britt and VOL CAST there
were too many good lightwelghts
and not enough good weltcrs to
attract particular attention.
Joe Walcott established such a
reputation for his division that
other wclters could not live up to
it and the class languished.
Later on big fellows like Pack
cy Mcfarland refused to call
themselves wclters. although they
could not make the lightweight
limit and when Richie and Welsh
held the lightweight title there
was no welterweivht division, as
these boxers were really wclters.

EDUCATION e.: Q Of THE STREETS
Stand Low in Higher Forms Of In
=. teiiigence, Tests Show.

1t Is a common belief that the chill
dren of the poorer classes in large cit
les acquire a certain amount Of valua-
bic education by running the streets.
Actual tests usually indicate, however,
says the Journal Of Heredity, that such
children stand very low in all the high
er forms of intelligence, and this might
have been suspected from an examina-
ton Of the environment in which they
are brought up. Association with old
er people is one of the most important
factors in a child's education; but in
the poorer classes the dwellings are
so small that a child must spend most
Of his waking hours outside, and no
where does he come in close contact
with many older persons of ability.
No matter how much one may adj
mire the development of modern indus
trial society, he can hardly believe that
1t offers a full and rich environ
mcnt in which child may unfold"
If child had inherited ability (and
many of the children who roam the
streets have, not, it could hardly be
called into full play by the stimulus
Of a modern city street which. COM
pared with the country, offers little
for child to do. Much has been said
of the. evils of child labor, but under
modern city conditions it IS conceiva-
Bile that child idleness may sometimes
be equally injurious.
