II, G. Wells, writing of the Ain- crican schools in rural illstricis.

When it comes to the rural schools oi America there can be little doubt that they are cheaper and manner by far even than the equivalent British schools. There are more automobiles per head of population in America than in any other country in the. world, but the dear little old cheap one-rooined red schoolhouse. and its immature and undertralned cheap teachers. have still lhardly moved forward from the stale of the one-horse shay. The American buys his boots and his candy in a palace from a millionaire, and he gets his edu- cation in a shanty from a needy young woman. I-le certalily gets the beet boots and candy in the world.

In the year 1638, for instance, there was a very terrible earth- quake on the 24th of March. A writer named Kircher has left a vivid description of it. While sail- in! on the Gulf of Charybidis, he states. "the water seemed to be whirled around in such a manner as to form a vast hollow, verging to a. point in the centre. Proced- inx onward _and turning my eyes ito Mount Etna, ‘I saw it cast forth large volumes of smoke. of mollu- -talnous size, which entirely cover- ed the island and blotted out even the shores from my view. This, io- gether with the dreadful noise and sulphureous stench filled me with iapprehension that some dreadful flllflllllty was impending. My sur- lprise was increased by the callu- ness and serenity by the weather. I therefore warned my companion that an earthquake was approach-
