The Census-taker against
Lavel and Storags of water in periences. Chief among these ara | Reservoirs on Jan. 1, 1921, the explanations some people offer CITY AND HILL DISTRICT WATER for the various answers they make
WORKS LEVEL. to questas put to them. One census worker asked a woman whether she could read.
She sawered, rather hesital- ingly, that she could not, and then hastened to explain "I cerer went to school but one day, and that was in the evening, and we hadn't no light, and the teacher i didn't come.
In an English bigh school the [question was asked:-"What do you know about the introduction of tobacco in England?"
The amwer was-"Tobacco was introduced into England by Sir Walter Raleigh, who said, 'Be of good cheer, for we have tis day lighted such a dame in Eag- land as, ly God's grace, shall never be extinguisbed."
A Frenchman who had been sojourning for the past faw months in Scotland approach- ed a friend in a perturbed state of mind-Meester Smeeth, what ees polar bear ?"
"Polar bear! Why, have you never seenth big, hulking fellow in the thick hairy coat?"
"Oui, Oui, what does he do?" "Bless my heart: Now what does he do? Oh, sits on the ice! and eats fit.”
"Seeta onze ice and eats foesh! PArbieu! have been asked to be polar bar at funeral, but I will not do it. Nevaire, nevaire."
Pastors and church members are often advised to show more effusivenes 'in welcoming strangers to public services.
A North London minister re- collected this on a recent Sunday when
caning down from his pulpit he found a stranger in the person of a fair-haired Scottish girl.
Greeting her with a cordial bandshake he said: "Ta vers glad to see you. I want you to feel at home here. I'd like to become painted with that
"Thank you. was the reply bu: I've alad already."
