An
old pastor made it a practice to visit the parish school one day
a week. He walked into the 4th grade class, where the children were
studying the states, and asked them how many states they could name.
They could only come up with about 40 names.
He jokingly
told them that in his day students knew the names of all the states.
One
lad snickered, "Yes, but in those days there were only 13."
