Mexican Riddles "Shoot High"

Geometry. zoology, meteorology and
botany are taught as early as the first
grade in the schools of the state of
Chihuahua, Mexico. The study of these
sciences is Simplified in the early
stages. but there is little attempt to
"sugar coat" the hard facts.
A visitor to second grade classroom
recently found the pupils-none more
than eight years old-glibly discussing
rhombuSses. rhomboids. trapezoids and
parallelograms. Whenever their teach
er asked question a thicket of little.
waving arms went upward.
When the history period was called
considerable emphasis was placed on
the various kings that ruled the Toll
tees. the aboriginal inhabitants of this
part of Mexico. The children handled
the ancient Indian proper names with
surprising ease.

OWES LIFE TO BAD SERVICE
Engishman Willing to Die, but Re-

Owen Wister, the author, was talk
ing in Philadelphia about England's
disorganized train service.
''They told me a strange tale in Bir-

young Birmingham broker was disap-
pointed in love, and went out on the
railroad and laid his head ON a rail,
intending to end it all.
1.-The London express was due in
three minutes, and the broker closed
his eyes.
He waited, very pale, eyes closed
Now and then he gulped. The three
minutes seemed long time passing
A long, long time. The rail got very
uncomfortable. The broker twisted
and turned his neck little. Finally
he looked at his watch. The train was
late-10 minutes late. With a sigh he
laid his head down on the rail again.
well, to make long story short,
the broker waited and waited for that
internal London express till-if he
hadn't gone away at last for bite to
eat-he'd surely have died of starva-

Religion Is Needed
In Germany, Says
Edward NJ. Caffal

Edward NJ. Caffal of West Palisade,
one of the closest thinkersj on world
economics anywhere, said this week in
speaking of the situation in Germany !:
our Real Mission.
cit is the task of the right thinking
part of the world to heal the sick
member of the nations, Germany. This
nation has suffered from the faults of
its rulers. Bloated with prosperity,
fed with lies by even the church and
the university, to say nothing of its
politicians, these unfortunate people
burst over the world and drew upon
themselves the wrath and hatred of all
civilization. No nation has ever earned
such scOrn and indignation. The blind
led the blind, and both have fallen into
the ditch. 1t is not the mission of
Christianity to judge and condemn the
guilty, but to bring them to a new
frame of mind wherein they will ac-
knowledge their faults, pay the penalty
of recompense wherever it can be done
and start a new life of decency. Ger
many needs a revival of real religion,
not formal, but of the spirit. Who will

"Good Things in 3s,'
Say Cliffside High
Telling of Them

Everyone has heard the old, old
saying that "All good things come in
threes." Some of you believe it, others
don't. Well, as seeing is believing,
the Cliffside Park High School Alumni
Association has taken it upon itself
to furnish the necessary proof.
Do you remember the two alumni
dances held this season, one an au-
tumn dance and the other a Christmas
reception? If you We're present at
either or both of these affairs you
surely had good time. If you were
not there, ask some one who was and
find out what a real good time you
missed. Those dances We're two of
the three ''goOd things" mentioned
above.
The third "good thing" is on its way
and everyone still has a chance to en-
joy it. 1t will be another dance, a
spring dance, which will he held on
Saturday evening, April II, in the
G. P. H. s. gymnasium. Dancing will
start at $50, the music being fur
nished by the Synco Four, which has
established an enviable reputation
hereabOuts for their extraordinarily
good jazz.
