can always find some authorities to prove that
you are right and wrong. You can limo MP On

Fors our part we wish prices were lower, but We
who are in this line Of business are up against
facts not theories, and the facts arc that wear

60 per cent of the population who can
neither read nor write constitutes a
veritable scandal for the nation. After
carefully analysing the problem we
have reached the conclusion that a

The society resolved to form free
classes in every big city, where boys
will be given instruction in the ele-

metic. Later similar classes are to be
started for adults of both sexes. The
teachers will be chosen from volunteers
among educated people, and the So
