Normal Mind Has Two lnteIigences.
This Is not as strange as IT looks,
for every normal mind has at least
Two intelligences, one conscious ana
the other subconscious. One might al
NEST say that in dreaming the subcon-
scious intelligence is playing against
the conscious intelligence. This shows
why great people often act on the re-
suits of their dreams, though they DO
MOI always know why. This also ex-
plains why we remember things We
!iad forgotten ard often reason more
clearly when our bodies are a. rest.

What Dreams Are

IS because thinking done when the
bod: rests is different from what II
is when The body is active--the one
is spontaneous attention and the other
is voluntary attention. These are as
different as the north pole is from the
south.
Voluntary Attention Restorative.
Ribot thus explains the difference:
VOLUNTARY attention is restorative
and IS used in sleep and dreams. while
artificial attention cyhausts and de-
mamhs change. The basis Of dream.
ing is seemingly spontaneous pro
ccssion OF dream imagery which il al.

Dreams Confused in Memory.

Dreams are NOT as confused as We
think. They become confused from
the standpoint Of memory, but arc not
from the poin, OF the dream organ.
Memory half-burred in trying 10 re-
call them makes dreaming seem con-
fused. Dreams born under normal
conditions arc normal. il is only those
that are created under abnormal con-
ditions that are strange. For rs Clc-

The Maryland Agricultural College is
one of the first schools in the south to
take up boxing as sport and foster it
in the regular curriculum of athletics.
An instructor has been secured and an
effort will be made to teach the students
at the college the essentials OF the manly
art. - 6
It is the intention Of those back Of the
movement at NJ. A. C. to arrange gym
nastic exhibitions between the various
sections during the coming year, and
later on provide for intercollegiate meets,
as is being done among the northern
schools at present. It has been an
