DISCUSSION OF STANDARDS
AND TESTS OF EFFICIENCY
DISCUSSIONS AMONG TEACHERS
BRING OUT THAT THERE ARE
} THREE FIELDS IN WHICH TO
APPLY TESTS.

ST. LOUIS Feb. 2S.-The discus
sion OF the problem of standards ard
tests of the efficiency OF schools or
school systems was openeCiat this
mornings session OF the Joint edOca-
tbonal conference of the national
council of education and the depart-
ment Of superintendence, by George
Drayton Suayer, professor of edu-
eational administration, Columbia uni
versity.
m;ttee appoinoed to sturdy this sub
iect, Professor Strayer called atten-
tson to the fact that there are three
fields In which standards or tests
might be applied-the first, with re
Spect to the business administration
of schools; second, in the field of
organization and administration of
the more strictly educational activi-
ties; and third, in the measurement
Of the achievement of individual pu.
pis, classes or schools, in the srab-
ieots commonly taught, He argued
that these three fields, AL hough dis
tinct from the standpoint of the
me4hod Of investigation or the tyre oi
investigator demanded. were. never
thebess, Intimately related and that
any complete study of a school sys
tenn would involve painstaking inves
legations in each of these fields.

POINTER HERE FOR FARMER
One Good Thing, at Least, That He
May Place to the Credit Of
the Auto.

The farmer may not venerats the
automobile. but he must admit that
although the automobile teaches 9th
ers extravaganza, 1t has taught him
a very valuable lesson in economy.
Everybody knows how plant lice, or
aphls. overrun and destroy plants and
how the sole protection against plant
lice has heretofore been patent pow.
ders more or less costly.
But Of late years farmers have no.
ticed that. while all the plants in field
or garden were covered with aphis.
all the roadside growths, white with
dust from flying automobiles, had not
single aphis on them.
Hence an experiment. Turnips, peas
and cabbages were coated with ordi.
nary dust instead Of costly powder.
Result, disappearance Of all insect par
asites.
Tho automobile, in word. has
taught the farmer that dust, which
costs nothing. will protect his plants
from plant lice and other pests Just a.
completely as the most expensive
powder can.

NEW SAFETY DEVICE
TO PREVENT ACCIDENTS

DARLINGTON, Eng, Feb. ia
device has just been invited designed
to make it impossible for trains to
run past danger signals This will .ef-
1ectlVely prevent collisions
1t is claimed that by means of this
invention train travelling at anv
speed can be brought to a standstill
by very simple automatic electrical |
device.
The apparatus consists of a plung-
er or shoe attached. to one of the rail-
way lines and connected with the
signaling box. A contact brush UNDER
meath the cab of the engine and a
magnet and tension spring connects
With the throttle of the engine. When
the signal is put against the trai,,
the shoe or plunger is thrust upward
from the metals so that if the engine ~
1al's to notice the danger signal, the
contact brush underneath the cab of
the engine touches the plunger.
This completes the electric c aren't
and automatically the tension snring
forces the closing of the throttle.
by the addition of magnetic coil
the same apparatus can operate the
air brakes, which can be put an au-

grinned George. He paused long
enough to satisfy plump pink per-

Cash for old shoes is what saved

HIGH COST OF LIVING
MAY BE INVESTIGATED

WASHINGTON, Feb. 15.-President
Taft in recent special message called
attention to the high cost of living
and suggested an International in
quiry into the subject. He says: There
has been a strong movement among
business men and others interested in
economic investigation, to secure the
appointment of an international COM
mission to look into the cause for the
high prices of the necessities of life,"
The president further states. that
the preliminary conference itself will
entail a comparatively small expense
and that the existing bureaus In this
and other governments could carry
on the work with little additional ex-
