WHERE DO OUR SCHOOLS ! STAND There is something deplorable in the report theft in 20,000 papers returned by students of high schools, ' colleges and normal schools six out of ten quetiaens about men, places and prcfolems of current public importance are answered wrong or omitted. Taking 1,000 of this yeart high school graduating desses in country districts, small towns and cities, tire Institute for Ftoblic Service to which the 20,000 papers were turned over by the Review of Reviews for analysis, finds that 40 did not recognise President Harding's picture; 80 did not know who Freshing wae; 630 did not know the meaning of "open shop"; 260 occld not mention an item of current interest connected with Washington where the dfsarmamoit conference was in session, not to mention congress; 800 could not remember the much advertised Budget Director Dawes; 500 did not know that Mellon is Secretary of the Treasury; 970 could not recognize the picture of the United States commissioner of education, and 710 did not even know the name of their own state school executive The only hopeful sign was that fewer senior boys failed on De Valera, Leonard Wood and Uoyd George than on who won the world series or the star actor in The Three Musketeers, and in the face that more girl seniors knew about Sinn Fien and the soldier bonus than knew about Susan Lenglen and Ruth LawIt is rather alarming to note that 5^ normal students who will next year teach 535 classes averaged only 25%, only one student averaging more than 70%. It would be instructive to the tax payers to learn how both pupils am teachers in out local schools woul. stand up under the test. POST OFFICE EXAMINATIONS Examination for the position o Clerk-Carrier in the Post Office a May, N. J., will be held Marc! 4th. 1922. Application may be obtained from the local post office or from the Givi Board. Post Office Building Pa.

The original investment of If *106 has, time and time again, grown to THOUSANDS.

MEN; be certain that they have i 3 bad aotuaJefKperience and can be , % lepended/on to drill wells with a X degree of certainty that they will 1 5 ret oil. ( < Convince yourself that the hold5 inga of the company, the places 1 J where they propose to drill, are I > reasonably good prospects to get ■f oil; convince yourself that they 1 3 are HONEST and will rive you a > ft square run for your money- , 3 AH these thongs I feel you will ' 3 find' tn the fullest extent in the ft GREAT SOUTHERN OIL COR . Cf FORAHON, and I invite every ' < eader of this paper and their I J friends to join me in this company. . * I know the busineae and above all ■f things I GUARANTEE YOU A .

The Company The Great Southern Oil Corporation is incorporated under the stringent laws of the State of Texas, the capital bring *1,000,000, with shares of stock of a par value of *100 each. The officers of the company are as follow: President — W.'B. Young, oil operator of Houston, Texas, with many ' ears actual experience in every branch of the business. Vice President — W. E- Whightsel, prominent attorney of Houston, with a varied experience in oil and land business. Secretary-Treasurer— J. G- Williams, an executive of recognized ability and thoroughly experienced in oil accounting. Over 7000 Rich Acres Hie holdings of the company consist of more than 7,000 acres of leases in different sections of the State. Some are proven; others, semi-proven, and others as yet more or less prospective, but all in the trend of envelopment. In the famous Mexia Section the company con-,, tools two leases of 10 acrre each, near the Tig" Derenberg Gusher which add for 1,100,000. The company proposes to drill on one or both of these tracts as soop as possible. Altogether,- the company has a total of 86 different tracts and it is qwto possible that out of this large number of holdings we may be in the midst of the next big stnke » Texas which would make quick cash dividends possible.

Operations ^ Hie policy of the company is to secure roy- ft ally interests in wells drilling in proven terri- w tory FIRST. In fact we' have already secured a v j royalty interest in the Brcckenridge field from ^ j which we have paid THREE CASH DIVIDENDS. A We plan to secure additional interest so that we ft may be in a position to pay regular dividends Vr and then we will rely on the sale of stock for 5 money wth which to drill on our own account- Q For this reason we are now offering 50.000 shares ft of stock at Par Value of 11-00 per share which. ft will probably be all that we will ever offer the V general public for reasons which we have already V? shown- U Prices and Terms S You may secure stock in this company by O either paying ALL GASH with application, or ft if you prefer, you can use the easy terms of ft payment sending ONE FOURTH CA^H with the Q application and then pay the balance in three ft equal monthly payments A limited number of D liberty Bonds will be accepted at Face Value.

JEWISH RELIEF : DRIVE IK JERSEY S, ■ ^ Fell* FuM, State Chairman, Tells t o ( Responefellity of State In £ Appeal Starting Feb. 26. ^ QUOTA IS RAISED TO $750,000 Phllanthrepist and Exsewtlvs Says No ^ Man has Dona Enough Whlla Chlld dran Are Starring and Rafugaaa d Die by Theuaanda m 71 "How can any man say he has done h enough when from acroaa the seas it there comes the cry of 300,000 or0 phanm, hungry, cold, naked and Starv- ^ IngT' That is the question being ask- ' ad the 105,000 Jews of New Jeraay by FeHx Fuld, stats chairman of the 1922 * New Jersey Jewish Belief Drive. "We <- may have thought we have done our r- share many tlmea before In sending relief to the war-stricken people <4 . the world, but as long ss there is a helpless child In any land where thare Is nothing to give him, we hare not done our duty until that child la fed it and clothed. e "Suppose there were only a thoud sand starving ©rpbenn— or even a . hundred— It would be up to someone to care for them.

j FEL IX FULD ^ Stite Chairman Jewish Relief

j state In a Jewish Relief campulgn- 8c ; enthusiastic was the state executive ' committee at its organization meeting 1 after hearing reports of conditions ; abroad that It added *150,000 to the , quote set by the national committee. ' of which, Louis Marshall Is chairman. r An intensive campaign will be conj ducted in every section of the state [ by the leading Jews. ' Money-raising campaigns are noth- ! lng new to Mr. Fuld and be Is gen- j . erally engaged In putting some kind ' of a charitable campaign across, In ' spite of the fact that he Is pretty busy ; himself about eight hours a day — and . then some — as he is vice-president <4 [ one of America's greatest stores, L. ' Bamberger & Company of Newark ; j In his home city whenever leading . | citizens set out to raise money for ' any charity they usuglly say "Who ) I besides Felix Fuld shall we ask to I help us." When -Mr. Fuld and his two partners csme to Newark about 'thirty I years ago he had about all he wan:»d , to do in looking after his own business affaire. However, he looked 1 after them so well that now be Is In i a position to give much of his execu- , tlve experience to other worth-while things of life. He keeps pretty busy 1 in responding to "S. O. S." calls of i philanthropic and welfare assocla- I tlons, and then for a side line helps build a Y. M. H. A., or pitches Into a | campaign for the European war-suf-ferere. Every once In a while some one suggests to Mr. Fuld that he Is entitled to take things easy— and as a man who has given so much of his time and money, that he has done enough. "How can any man say he has done enough," replies Mr. Fuld, "when he thinks of the half million refugees who have no place to res{ thrir beads, who are driven from city to city, often shot down as they attempt to cross it the frontier, who swarm along the ( of Europe, eating the roots » they dig up In the fields and forests where they sleep, exposed to the ter- * rlble perils of typhus and cholera and ^ dying by the thousands. "Too can get some Idea of the f enormity of. our responsibility In this f appeal when I tell you that In all the s United States there are less than 10,- _ Jewish orphans. Contrast that number with the thousands In Eu- * This campaign will succeed be- 4 cause it Is a united effort on the part t of all element* of American Jewry. It 7 tkn't only the American Jewish Relief committee that Is doing this thing, but . als the Central Jewish Relief eomand the People's Relief comD'."
