@. How many Of the Presidents
of the United States received college
educations 81. w. M.
A. OF the twenty-eight Presi-
dents of the United States. nineteen
including President Harding, were
college-bred men.
@. Is there any place in Ameri-
ca where wild horses can be found?
II. N.
A. Wild horses are still to be
found in certain parts of America,
notably in Colorado, Nevada, Oregon,
Idaho, New Mexico and Arizona.
@. Why doesn't all the fruit on a
tree ripen at the same time ?-H.H.D.
A. The Department of Agricul-
ture a y that there are several rea-
sons why all the fruit of a tree does
not ripen at the same time. In some
instances this will be a character
.istic of certain varieties. The ex-
posure of the sun is another factor
fruits being directly exposed ripen
first. There is also some difference
in the fruit where the fruit is grown
in clusters. 1t is interesting to note
that the center one will ripen in adj
of the others. This is because
it is fertilized with pollen before the
others are.
@. Why do we speak of our AM
bassador to England as Ambassador
to the Court of Saint james,
WED.
A. st. James Palace was the Lon
don residence of the British kings
from the time of William HI to the
accession of Queen Victoria. Dur
ing this period the expression Court
Of st. James, came to be generally
used and is still maintained as the
official designation Of the British
court.
@. Who wrote the story about the
lady who threw her glove in a lions
den, commanding her lover TO re-
turn it to HERR. s.
A. This story has been ~variously
adapted by Schiller, Leigh Hunt and
Browning, but was originally told
(about 1850 by Pierre Ronsard.
@. Why do chickens pick feathers
from each other and eat them P
A. C. +.
A. The Department of Agricul-
ture says that chickens pick feathers
from each other because of ack OF
meat or protein in their diet. some
times chickens are afflicted with this
habit because they are kept in close
confinement. 1t is necessary that
chickens be out in the open and have
free range. If chickens persist in
the habit under these conditions
tack a small piece of meat to a post
where they can peck at it..
Q. Is it not true that the Third
Division is a six-star divis'on?-

OlDo 1911
The world is full of trouble, each
hour some grief begins, and every
ache is double, and every woe is
twins. The roubles we are earning
don't pay US for our toll, the gaso-
line we're burning is mostly castor
oil. Two cylinders are missing, the
battery is lame; a byword and a.
Kissing is life, the dismal game.
And yet the folks seem cheerful Is
they pursue their grind; the fellow
who is fearful is rather hard to find.
1 hear the people chatting and JOSH
ing as they pass, / hear my neigh
bors laughing while hoing garden
sass; 1 cannot understand 1t, such
mirth all vain appears; this life
does not demand tit rather calls
for tears There's sorrow on h
ocean, there's sorrow on the shore;
my rheumatism potion relieves the
pain no more; woe like a stream
meanders through life, and never
quits; my horse has bot the CLAN
ders, my cat is throwing fits. My
skies are always clouded, for me
no sun will shine, in sackcloth ! am
shrouded, in ashes I recline. My
soul Is torn by teasles, my days are
gray and grim, my hens have got the
measles, my ducks can't learn to
swim; and yet I see men grinning
as though the world were fine;
such merriment seems shining
when l am shedding brine.

John Henry Newman. that truly
great, but not always consistent
scholar and ecclesiastic, once said:
II look out of myself into the
world Of men, and here ! see a sight
which fills me with H~nspeakable dis
tress. The world seems simply to
give the lie to that great truth OF
which my whole being is SO full,
and the effect upon me is, in conse-
quence, as a matter of necessity, as
confusing as If it. denied That am
in existence myself.
If l looked into a mirror ana did
not see my own face, l should have
the same sort of feeling which ac-
tually comes uppn me when / look
into this living world and see no re-
Election of its Creator
These are appalling words. They
bring us face to face with the con-
temptation of mankind placed in a
world q good God has made, and
where, as the old hymn declares:
EVERY prospect pleases, and only
man is vile"
Must Face World
We shall never get far in our eff
fort to make the world better, If we
have not courage to face frankly the
fact that the world needs to be made
better. .
1 have always liked the sermon of
the baek-woods preacher from the
text, "These that have turned the
world upside down have come hither
ALSO" The points of his sermon
we're: ~
First, the world is wrong-side up.
Second, the world needs to be
turned right-side up. -
Third, we are the fellows to do it.
Not Hopeless
Personally, l have been able
10 60 the length of Newman in his
despair of the world of mankind.

cious metal, and stamped with the
Name and Face of the Great King.
The human world, into WHICH
Newman looked, and was appalled,
because men were so unlike the
good God who made them, is a mir
ror, and in it we5discern but dimly
the outlines of the divine purpose
which made it; but though a tar.
nished mirror, it still is a mirror OF
that purpose.
Every generous impulse, every
thrill of holy ambition, every incen-
tive to right decision and heroic en-
deavor, every affirmation of con-
science, is, after all, a true line upon
the great mirror of God, revealing
the high purpose of creation and h
possibilities of human destiny.
With all it's faults and sins, which
are many, it is not a hopeless world.
1t is a good world. and if we try, we
can make it better.
