TO TEST YOUR APPLICATION
Hugo Munsterberg Gives a Simple
Way to Conduct Really Interest
ing Experiment.

Have your friends the ability to
hold their attention, or does it become
quickly fatigued? A simple expert
ment will show you, writes Hugo
Munsterberg In the Youths Compan-
ion. Give each person a column from
a newspaper, and have each one cross
out witt, a pencil every letter A and
every letter r. Keep an eye on your
watch, and when half a minute has
passed, say Now" as signal for
each experimenter to make a mark at
the word that he has just reached.
Keep this up for five minutes, and
then count how many AS and how
many RS each one marked in the first
half-minute, how many in the fifth,
and how many in the tenth, and see
how many each person overlooked in
each half-minute.
Some persons will do well at the be-
ginning, but will soon become inatten-
tive. In the last four half-minutes
they will mark few letters, and over
look many. Others will do better in
the second and third half-minute than
in the first, and their attention will be
sharper at the end than at the begin
ming.

Virtue of pIslnaenuousness.

In school l once attended the
most popular girl was the most tactful
one. AS far as l know only one girl
disliked her. That girl was spiteful,
cross and therefore not very well
liked. Do you know what she used
to call our idol? A hypocrite, The
word bothered me not little, but she
answered me In her thoughtful little
way:
We'll, guess that maybe Betty is
a hypocrite, If being a hypocrite
means saying little kind things based
on small pretexts and leaving unsaid
the unkind things no matter how good
a reason there is for saying them;
but she's a mighty comfortable per
son to have around. l wish that the
world was full of such hypocrites!"-
