Tricky Quiz Questions From A Vintage Paper

A reader quiz asks where the little reigns of St Pierre and Siachan are located and defines ante bellum. It asks which state Senator Walsh represents and who holds the American indoor tennis title. It inquires why the Smithsonian failed to secure Wright brothers plane and what cinnamon bears look like. It notes Stradivari’s fame and asks if Mary Garden is married. It ends with a quotation fragment about wisdom’s price and a Mellon feud jab related to a treasury secretary in France.
