swers, will win. there are few II any
persons, Il Is believed. who can 50 con-
fldently trust their ability to solve the
problems that they should rely on one
answer for each picture.
II would seem TO be expedient 10 sub
NIT every reasonable answer to each
picture, hve answers being allowed for
tion is apt to eliminate some Of the
correct answers.
And it must be remembered that while

OF the elements making for success in
