Mayor Marx, In prepared state

YOUNGEST RECIPIENT
OF THEPH D.DECREE

The youngest recipient of the degree
OF doctor OF philosophy at the Harvard
commencement, last month. was Nor
bert Weiner. Is years old. He earned
that which many men past their prime
and with long years OF study and ex-
perience have sought through close
mental application
The Phi. d. degree is supposed 10
represent three years of graduate
study and research, topping of the
four years of Undergraduate work.
Figuring on this basis, Norbert would
have entered college at the age OF il,
got his bachelor OF arts degree at 10,
and spent the last three years in adj
vanced study. He didn't follow this
programme, however, except that he
has spent the last three years in ad-
vanced study. In fact. judged by
usual educational standards, all or
Norbert's study has been advanced
When he was child OF the age
when boys are playing marbles ana
spinning tops, Norbert vas studying
philosophy and Greek and matncmat-
les. He kept "A few notches ahead OF
HE neighbours children all through the
years; so whe. nc entered collage &c
entered advanced classes, and turr,ed
through on record time, getting his
baccalaureate degree three years ago.
This marvellous /rapidity IN educa-
ton is due to the personal attention
OF his father DR.. Leo Weiner a pro
fessor In Harvard. DR.. Wciner says
that people who marvel at Norbert 5
progress should recognize that 1t is the
system and not the boy which pro-
duced this intellectual prodigy. He
says he can take any ordinary boy CT
tender eai6 and by using his method
of training can make MIN genius just
as he did in the case OF his own son.
Young Weiners thesis, supposed TO
represent the conclusions To which his
years of specialized study have
brought him, and on which he was
awarded the doctors degree, is enti-
tied THE Algebra of Logic"
Contemporaneous with Norbert,
Harvard has had several students who
have been regarded as unique prodi-
gies In these days when boys rarely
enter college until their near-twntis.
William James Sidis, l4-year-old boy
prodigy who discussed THE problem
OF the fourth dimension" at meeting
of mathematical experts and amazed
them by his originality and insight,

ward class and was not candidate
for a degree. He has bson simply d

All they did in the last meeting was

May gave them They didn't even

members a chance to object TO the
names he put on the list.
There are lots of good saloonkeep-
ers. There's Charlie Churchill. for
instance. Isn't he as we'll qualified

Mr.. Mcnamara read cases and olin-
ions to prove that no officer in the
state Is permitted 10 delegate his
duties TO another unless he is spe-
officially given that privilege.
