China haa adop ted the alogan "China a Literate Na tion in One Generation." It ia preposterous that any human beings, outside of actual barbarism, ahould grow up unable to read. But teaching them to read and write is only the first step. The next is teaching human beings TO THINK, which is considerably more difficult and important It isn't what you READ that counts. It's what yon THINK AFTER YOU READ that improves government and civilisation. - It takes a Frenchman, and an old one, Camilla Flammarion, to tay that the people on Mara are much more JOYFUL than we are. The Martian year is twice as long as ours. A man there fifty yeara old has lived 100 years, nearly. The cli mate is better and the planet being amaller, everything ia lighter. An ordinary Martian could easily carry his mother-in-law upstairs in his arms, even if the weighed 400 pounds. Millions of years older in their civil ization than earth men, the Martians are far ahead of ua in knowledge, and that meant happiness. In fact it's the only solid happiness. John A.

Men like trees die at the top. They are all right while the top is green. After a while civilized human be ings will decide that rats and mice don't pay, and take the trouble to get rid of them along with the mosqui toes, Aies and other nuisances that Father Noah might well have left out of the Ark. An English scientist demonstrated that rata suffer from foot and mouth disease and, frequenting stables, in fect the cattle. Moral for farmers, use cement and copper and keep out the rats.
