The last riding academy in Europe where classi cal horsemanship is still cultivated in its purest, form, dates back to the sixteenth century. And the building which houses it and where horse shows are held today was also built long ago. Jreparatoria Abterta History tells us that the art of riding was known in ancient times. The Athenians, between 430 and 354 B.C. were enthusiastic horsemen but the barbarian invasion wiped out all memory of the developed Greek skill Later, in the Middle Ages, the fighting techni- que and the armored knights required only mounts that could walk or gallop along a straight line Horses trained only for attack did not prove ade- quate until the invention of small firearms, called for mounts of great maneuverability . The horses had to be steady in all paces to enable the horseman to have sure and steady aim. Thus, as a result of necessity the art of riding was redis- covered. The new art was received in all European courts, since equestrian skill, was most important in courtly education. Emperor Charles VI of Austria ordered that the Winter Riding School be constructed in 1729- 1735. It is an impressive structure, decorated in ivory white with enormous chandeliers, Forty- six columns support the gallery and the ceiling is suspended from the roof. Many festivities were held there at first, masquerade balls, ban- quets and ladies’ equestrian competitions, But from 1894 on, the building has been used ex- clusively for the training of horses and riders and for horse ballets. Horses with talent for classical horsemanship were found on the Iberian Peninsula and brought to Austria where a breeding farm was started. The term "Spanish” is the academy's name is derived from these horses. Later, another breeding farm was founded in Lipizza, near Trieste. This had a decisive influence on the history of the riding school for up to this day the white Lipizzaner stallions have been the chief actors in the horse ballets. The Lipizzaners result from centuries of breed: ing Spanish, Italian and Arabian - Oriental blood. They mature late but reach advanced age, between 28 and 32 years. A brown Lipizzaner is, rare for they turn white at the age of four or as late as ten years old, but new-born foal is always dark brown. Training of both horses and riders is a slow process. For the first year, the horse is taught straight-forward riding. This teachers him d cipline and to trust his trainer. The second year, the rider learns to guide the horse and both learn to keep their balance doing turns and figures. The horse is made to change paces paces and speed by lateral work. The third and final year he is taught a number of exercises or “steps” like the Piaf, the Pirouette, the Passade and the Capriole, where the horse jumps and throws himself forward. One practically sces him floating in air. All these exercises and gym- nastic training have helped him to achieve a har- mony of the seemingly effortless movements re- quired by the horse ballet Hard times came upon the academy through the fall of monarchy and wars. The horses had to be moved where they would be safe from mishaps During the Second Word War, General George S. Patton after attending a performance that was put on for the North American occupation troops, sent armored freight cars to transport the horses to safety and when peace was res- tored, the horses were brought back to Vienna where they continue to treat people to a wonder- ful spectacle of the finest horsemanship. 115.- Where is the classical horseman- ship still cultivated? a) In the middle ages. b) In the European courts. c) In Lapizzan near trieste d) During the second world war 116.- What kind of mounts did the ar- mored knights require? a) Only mounts that could walk or gallop on a straight line. b) Mounts that make fantasy paces, c) Mounts that respect Greek soldiers. 4) Mounts that trained only in Lapiza 117.- When was the first riding school constructed in Vienna? a) Between 28 and 32 years old. b) Between430 and 354 BC. c) Later, in the middle ages. ) In 1729-1735. 118.- What has it been exclusively used for from 1549 onward? a) The winter riding school b) The hall for masquerade balls. c) The ladies equestrian competitions. d) The horse ballets. 119.- Where does the term "Spanish" in the name of the academy come from?. a) From the ancient Greeks b) It was named by the gencral Patton c) It as derived from the horses found in the Iheric peninsula. 4) From the Lipizzaners. 120.- What is the horse taught during the first year of training?. a) The rider learns to guide the horse. b) The taught them a number of exercises or steps c) It is taught a long and slow process. d) It is taught straight-forward riding, 121.- What did General Patton do after attending a performance of the Lipiz- zaners? a) They were employe for the north-american troops b) They suffered hard times through the fall of monarchy’ c) He sent armor freight cars to transport the horses to safety. d) The horses were brought back to Vienna EDWARD JENNER. We rarely hear that a person has smallpox nowadays, and everybody can be safe from it, for we now have a vaccination But only a century ago there was always danger of this dreaded disease which nearly killed all its victims and doctors hardly knew what to do about it, A long time ago people in the East had found a way to fight the disease. They found that when a person had a mild case of it, they would inocu- late another person from the first and the second one would then be safe or immune from any bad attack. This secret had come to England from Turkey but nothing much had been done about it The conquest of these disease is due to Edward Jenner, a country doctor who was born in Gloucester, England in 1749. He had first studied medicine in Sodbury and later in Lon. don, Then he went back to the country. One day a m ilkmaid told him that she was not afraid of smallpox because she had already had cowpox and everybody knew that if you had either of these, you would never have the other. Many milkmaids and country people were sure about that. Jenner thought that there might be something in it, so he started to investigate. He studied case histories for about eighteen years and discovered that the popular theory was true, Cowpox is a disease that cows used to have; and milkmaids would get it from them. He thought that if he could give a person a mild form of cowpox, he could save them from the terrible attacks of a smallpox. Of couse he met violent opposition but when in 1789, risking his career, he inoculated a boy with cowpox by making a slight cut in his arm and placing in the cut material taken from a sore on the hands of a milkmaid, ill with cowpox, the hoy developed cowpox. When later he tried to give the boy smallpox infection failed to have any affect. After they found that deaths from smallpox had dropped by two-thirds within (wo, years there was little room for doubt or argu- ment. Jenner had conquered one of man’s worst foes What he discovered is called vaccination be- cause it comes from the Latin word vacca Although he was not the first to inoculate with cowpox, he was the first to publish his results, and to establish the practice of vaccination on a scientific basis. His work inspired Louis Pasteur and ultimately led to the science of vaccination and immunization and preventive vaccines of the present day 122,- How can everybody be safe from a smallpox now? a) Only a century ago there was always danger. b) Doctors hardly know what to do about it c) Now we have vaccination 4) In the east had found a way to fight disease, 123.- Who had first founda way to fight the disease? a) Edward Jenner, a country doctor. b) People in the east c) A mild case of it 4) The inoculated. 124, What important information did Jenner get from a milkmaid one day? a) She was not afraid of smallpox, because she had already had it b) He started to investigate it ©) He studied case stories. 4) The popular theory was true. 125.- Where did milkmaids get the dis- ease? a) From a perwon mild dase. b) From the terrible attacks of smallpox. c) From other milkmaids. 4) From cows that used to have the isease 10 126.- How did he inoculate the boy? a) In 1798, risking his carcer. b) With smallpox. c) Making a slight cut in his arm, and placing the material taken from a sore on the hands of @ milkmaid, d) Trying to give the smallpox boy infection 127.- What is the thing he discovered called? a) It is called cowpox. b) It is called vaccination. ©) Iti d) It is called smallpox. 128.- What science did his work lead to? a) To publish his results. b) The practice of vaccination on a scientific basis and immunization. ¢) The firs to inoculate with smallpox. d) To establish the cows as preventive treat- ment. latin word "vacca”, POLLUTION AND MAN’S ENVIRON- MENT. Twenty-eight years ago when the smog of autumn had lifted from Donora, Pennsylvania, twenty-one persons had died from toxic po Mutants and hundreds more were required to be treated. Five years later (1952) four thousand people died in a London smog due to a heavy concentration of sulfur dioxide present in the air, The Cuyahoga River in Ohio in 1969 became so polluted that the river caught on fire when a cigarette was thrown into the river. In a Japanese port city fifty-one persons died a decade ago when people had caten fish with lethal dosages of mercury. Over six million metric tons of oil are said to be floating in the oceans due to ships cleaning out their tanks while out to sea, How this oil will affect marine life is difficult to determine. These examples are only a few of the many that could be noted For a million years man has endeavored to suh jugate nature to his will. But now he is realizing that the whole Earth is an ecological unit were all organisms have mutual dependence he they hostile or not. Nature can, and has, as in the example given, threaten man with extinction in his own environment. The threat of pollution is not only from a taminated nature but from man's own in’. Guia de Estudio tion with himself, Noise, for example, from air- craft, automobiles, trucks and buses in urban areas may have effects that are as harmful to man’s mental health as his physical health through pollutants. Until we have sufficiently large bodies of data to determine how much man can withstand, it should be the job of government and industry as well as individuals to try to eliminate wastes from streams, rivers and oceans; to reduce the noise as much as possible in the environment, On the other hand, if government insists on in- dustry and citizens complying with restrictions that cause undue hardship in the social and economic spheres we run the risk of ercating another sort of stagnation-lose of employment and taxes. It is hoped that governments, busi- nesses and individual citizens will act prudently as a group, insuring that man’s environment will be productive yct free from pollution. The campaigns of Woodsie the Owl-"Give a hoot, don't pollute”, "Pitch in, every litter bit hurts", the Boy Scouts re-cycling of metals, glass and paper as well as other organizations at- tempts to clean the environment are positive signs that the environment is no longer some- thing to be subjugated but taken care of by man, 129,- What has the man realized recently? a) Has endeavored to subjugate nature to his will. b) The whole earth is an ccological unit, c) Many examples could be noted. a) What are two basic forms of pollution. 130.- lution. a) The threat of contaminated nature and man's own interaction b) Air and noise.

The predecessor of the shopping center, the su- permarket took the place of the nearby grocery store where people used to buy their groceries, had a friendly chat with the grocer who was familiar with their life stories, bought on credit sometimes, and had their goods delivered if they wished. All this was lost with the appearance of the supermarket. What did a supermarket have to offer? The greatest advantage in this day of high-cost living: lower prices. Why can a supermarket sell at lower prices than the corner grocer? This is a quite easy to figure out: they buy enormous quantities at a time and, in turn, get a lower price. They also save labor costs since their goods are sold on a self-service basis. Although they sell at a very low profit, they sell such large quantities that they have a big gross profit. Their goods are clearly displayed and one may choose exactly what one needs, This also gives you a chance to familiarize yourself with the new products which appear at the market every day. The shopping cart was a brilliant and lucrative idea. With them at hand, a person casily buys much more than his arms can carry, and if the customer is carrying a baby, the baby can sit comfortably in the cart and'the customer can continue his shopping with ease. Now perhaps your curiosity has been aroused and you ask Ingles V yourself, "When and where did supermarkets originate?” Most likely, no one knows. Around supermarkets, with large parking areas, other stores -clothing, hardware, jewelry -imme- diately arise, thus creating a shopping center These shopping centers are taking in most of the downtown trade, leaving a desolate and not very attractive downtown section in some cities, i of just a supermarket and the stores surrounding it, there are fabulous shop- ping centers coming to life. Some of these have theaters, movie houses, churches, and recrea- tional areas. Let’s take, for instance, the Farsta shopping, center near. Stockholm Sweden. It is a wonder- ful place with eight buildings and a church. It has four large parking areas besides a garage that holds three hundred cars. It has a beautiful plaza which was thought out very carefully. The central attraction of the plaza is the thirty years-old oak tree. There are also statues, a fountain, beautifully colored flower-beds, whit benches surrounding them Likewise, there are flag poles, show cases and room enough for temporary ornamental cle- ments. You will also find in de plaza a small supervised area where children can play while their parents leisurely do their shopping, The Farsta has very large stores, all kinds of shops, offices, a postoffice and a church. It also has several specializad doctors, dentist, a maternity clinic, a public library, a social service office, a youth center, drugstores, a movie house, a theater, a police department, an auto-repair shop and restaurant. Would you like to spend a day at Farst in Stockholm? A completely different aspect of the previous shopping center, is "The Cannery” in San Fran- cisco, California. As the name suggest, it used to be a canning center factory. The entire place was remodeled by an architect, named Joseph Esherick and, in the matter of architecture, he omitted nothing on create “life” or intensity the original aspects of the building, He restored the three stories and these were turned into stores, shops, and restaurants, Nar- row winding streets, gas lanterns, stairs, bal- conies, archades and early century motifs were added "The Cannery" is supposed to be a tourist attrac- tion, but as difficult as it is to explain, the fact remains that there are many San Franciscans who prefer "The Cannery" for their shopping, Several questions have arisen as to the reason: Is it a reaction to the skyscrapers in many American cities? Is it to elude modern struc- tures, the shopping centers, the self-servi cafeterias? Is it "snob appeal” -when qual 12 Preparatoria Abjerta a product, as a high price, rarity or foreing origin appeal to the snobbery of the purchaser? But then, perhaps, it could merely be romantic taste for gas-lit lanterns, and narrow-winding streets! 134.- That was the predecessor of the supermarket? a) The nearby grocery store b) The shopping center. c) The Farsta shopping center near Stockholm, d) The cannery in San Francisco California 135.- What does the supermarket have to offer? a) A friendly chat with the grocer b) Buying in credit terms. c) Being familiar with their life stories. 4) Lower prices and saving labor on a self- ser- vice basis. 136.- Why do supermarkets buy at a lower price than the corner grocer? a) Because they buy enormous quantities at a time. b) Because they save cost labors ©) Because they nay choose exactly what one needs. d) Because they familiarize whit new products. 137.- Why do you buy more when you use a cart? a) Because you can sit comfortabily to your baby in car b) Because a Persian can buy much more than his arms can carry. c) Because it has a brilliant and lucrative idea. 4) Because it can carry a baby. 138.- What was the cannery before it became a shopping center. a) It was a reaction to skyscrapers in many American cities. b) It was supposed to be a tourist attra c) It was self-service cafeteria. 139.- What could be the reason of many San Franciscans preferring the shop at the center "The Cannery’. a) Being a tourist attraction. b) It’s difficult to explain. c) It could a romantic place taste for gas lanterns and narrow winding streets Guta de Estudio. Desiderata. Go placidly amid the noise and haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence, As far as possible, without surrender, be on good terms with all persons. Speak your truth quickly and clearly; and listen to others, even the dull and the ignorant; they too have their story. Avoid loud and aggressive persons; they are vexations to the spirit. If you compare your- self with others, you may become vain and bitter; for always there will be greater and lesser per- sons than yourself. Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans, Keep interested in your own career, however humble; it is a real opportunity of possession in the changing fortunes of times. Exercise caution in your business affairs; for the world is full of trickery. But let this not blind you to what virtue there is; many persons strive for high ideals and everywhere life is full of heroism. Be yourself. Especially, do not feign affection. Neither be cynical love; for in the face all aridity and disenchantment it is perennial as the grass. Take kindly the counsel of the years, gracefully surrendering the things of youth. Nur- lure strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune, But do not distress yourself with im- aginings. Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness.
