AUSSIES PAINT THE PYRAMIDS By DE WITT MACKENZIE (Copyright, 1929, Associated Press) One of the finest rough houses of the world war was staged by Australian troops in Cairo early in 1916. And is was some show! Cleopatra wouldn’t have recognized the place had she returned for the Aussies’ old home week. The trouble really started in a small way over a girl, but it quick- 1¥ assumed proportions of real menace. There was open mutiny, and for three weeks the Nile laved the shores of a city of tribula- fion. The situation was so fraught with danger to the army and to Cairo that the Pharoahs must have turned over in their tombs, if per- chance there are any of these an- cient rulers who have nct been dug up anc czcied away for the ed- ification of the curious. The matter was very wisely hush- ed up at the time. Indeed, even heart of Cairo. Australian officer: | were quartered in the Bristol.

Another Aussie claimed that hic sweetheart had been stolen, anc there followed a glorious free-for- all fist fight in which everybody took part. Then with:a dash ¢ abandon worthy of a great cause these wild men smashed their fur- niture, virtually dismembered thei: house and finally set fire to it ijust to celebrate a job well Jdone. | Naturally, the Australian com- jmand in the adjoining hotel took (action. Several hundred = Aussie | soldiers were paraded before the 'hotel and a stern edict was issued that they -were to let the lodies of Cairo alone. Worse, the pay of the | soldiers was stopped. Now when you talk to an Aus- tralian like that you want tc smile.

SWEDE SCHUOLS EIND ENGLISH SPOKEN MOST | STOCKHOLM, Sweden, April 16. —The English language is becom-l ing more and more popular in the | Stockholm schools it has been' ‘earned by an inquiry among lead- ing pedagogues in the Swedish cap- ital. Thus Sven Nilsson, principal of *he Borgarskolan, or People’s high | school, relates that English is stud- | led today by more pupils than any other language. French comes sec- ond, followed by German and then Spanish. Before the world war,! after all these years I shall get nc eyes for a moment, and then with vote of thanks from anybody, much |one accord they rushed their ofii- Jadisions were different. Then’ less from my many good Australian friends, for telling this tale. Still it can do no harm now, especially since I am writing about only a few hundred men from a force of s6ldiers whose dashing bravery pro- vided one of the epics of the war. Before telling of the roughhouse, it is only fair to call attention to a fact which perhaps many people have not recognized. Everybody knows, of eourse, the Australiars were two-fisted, of whom the enemy frankly were afraid. Nothing under the sun could stop them in an attack ex- cept death. But everybody knows also that the Australians chafed under military discipline, and that is what I wish to try to explain in a word. Australia is still close to her pioneering days. She is filled witix the type of he men who made his- tory in America’s west not so many years ago. The Australian dis- likes. restraint as did the old-tim- ers of Virginia City, U. 8. A, who wrote their names on the barroom floors in lead to show their inde- pendence. This characteristic in part explains the Cairo imbroglic. It happened that a considerable number of men from the wide open spaces of Austraiia had been land- ed in Egypt from the east and were waiting to be transported to the battle lines in France. They were bronze faced, strapping six-footers who were more used to their sad- dles and plains than they were to fearless fighters | !cers’ quarters. There was a bit of a !mess. Other troops were called {out and certain number of the riot- ers were rounded up. These men were court martialed, and they challenged no more orders. The rest of the outfit, however | totaling several hundred, distrib- ?uted themselves about the city anc {hid from the military police. For the most part the truants founc .efuge in native cafes where they proceeded to have a high old time It was a common occurrence foi ian Aussie to steal a girl irom 2 Greek or some other habitve of |these places. Frequently a fight |followed with the result that many (people were injured and some es- tablishments were wrecked. ! The Greeks and nati finally began to take revenge. They de- clared war on all men in uniferm It was unsafe for a soldier to b¢ on the streets after dark; more than one got a knife in his Lack This sort of: think went on for about three weeks. Finally thc Australian command got the af fair in hand, the soldiers bundled aboard a ship and startec off to France, where they could /find plenty of action to engagc itheir attention. That pleased them because they were aching for & scrap. Apropos of this incident, the war. were the ,cities of Egypt provided the au- ithorities a lot of anguish during ‘There was more vicious- ess to the square inch in the un- German predominated, and Eng- lish and French occupied second and third place, respectively. During the year 1913-1914 tho} Borgarskolan taught German to“ 382 pupils, English to 543," French | |- 0 275 and Russian to 72. Figures ‘or the period 1927-1928, on the! sther hand, show that instruction’ n English was given to 1,168 stu- ¥ ients, French to 740, German to: 712, Spanish to 76 and Russian to 16. Similar conditions obtain at the | Schartau Business school and at she Paalman Business institute. Jtto Andersson, principal of the ‘ormer, stresses, however, the grow- ng interest in the Spanish langu 1ge, due chiefly to the increased narket for Swedish goods in Cen-| ral and South America. Russian | s not studied by as many as be-| ‘ore, because the hopes which were ! >ntertained in Sweden during the| var of fature intimate trade rela- | jons with this country fell through 0 a great extent with the advent »f Bolshevist rule. et ATTENTION!
