The population of the United States will apparently be double its present proportions by the year 1942. Seventy-one per cent, of the revenue of civilised nations is from taxation, 14 per cent, from State railways, 15 per cent, from Post Office, Crown lands, and public property. Probably the most curious Bibleclass in the West of England is that of deaf-mutes which meets near Clialford, Gloucestershire. All the members are deprived of their senses of hearing and speech, and have to communicate and “talk” to each other by means of the deaf-mute alphabet.
