GEOGRAPHY

LESSON

Teachers of geography are in an odd spot just now, not knowing from day to day where one country begins or onds.

Bishopbriggs (near Glasgow) Higher Grade School reopened recently and had a geography lesson all about Africa.

Said the headmaster, Mr. William Brown:

"We're just going to ignore Europe and teach nothing about it until this business sottles down."

Those who stated, as I did recently, that the

But irrefutable proof that such là the case is provided by the disputes now raging round the Fuhrer concerning the choice of the date for the offensive against France and Britain."

In Paris circles astonishment has been growing at the fact that the Fuhrer is allowing Franco and Britain the necessary time

to perfect their defences and consolidate the positions acquired.

FIELD Marchal Goering, Hitler's bloated second-in-command, was a spy in England in 1914,

In April, 1014, he came to the village of South Luffenham, Oak- ham, Rutland, in the guise of a student of the English language,

Hig futor was the Rev. J. F. Richards, the rector, now at Three- cornered Standley, Amersham, Ducks.

Tall and hollow-cheeked, vasily different from the swaggering, fat man of to-day, Goering could speak English with the fluency of a native.

But he made sure that he spoke il brokenly when in company.

At times, when he thought he was alone, however, Goering, the spy, spoke to the rectory cat in perfect English,

Often on these occasons he was overheard by Mrs. Beasley who was In service at the rectory.

Goering, the bully and fighter, is in many ways a contradiction. He is a great lover of animals.
