SCHOOL DURING
SUMMER CROWS
THROUGH UNION
Children in $50 or More American
Cities to Continue Studies A.
ter Regular Terms Close.

WASHINGTON. June 14.-Children
in $50 or more American cities will
continue going to school during the
summer months this year, according
to information received at the United
States Bureau Of Education. Clarence
Arthur Perry. in a publication issued
by the Russell Sage Foundation, New
York City, finds that 141 municipal
ties reported vacation schools in one
or more buildings in 1912, and there
will undoubtedly be more this year.
Starting originally as a humani-
tartan movement to keep children off
the city streets, the vacation schools
have become an important part Of the
school system with a tremendous in
f1uence in the demand for the all-year
school. The steady development from
56 cities in 1909 to 141 in 1912 indi-
Gates that vacation schools represent
genuine educational demand, and
not a mere fad.
Some of the schools keep open as
long as ten weeks, but six weeks is
the usual term. In most cities the
session is five days a week. though II
cities report sessions of six DAYS.

All Babies of Town
Get ST When Born
President of Savings Bank To SIZE
That Every Child Starts Life
With Account.

KENOSHA, WIS, June 14.-Keno-
sha babies are said to have the equal
opportunities socialists have been
dreaming about.
The president Of a savings bank is
going to start every baby born in
kenosha right in life and does not
care how much his offer increases the
birth rate. Just as soon as the Tit
tie stranger is able to make his
wants known, even in the most un-
speakable Of baby talk he is going to
have a bank account.
Henry b. Robinson, president of the
bank, is man with a family, and is
not only interested in babies, but is
also concerned in seeing the deposits
Of his bank grow.
You know We bankers do a lot of
advertising 10 teach people how to
save, but I believe this plan beats
them ALL" he said. Il am not only
willing 10 give every baby born in
Kenosha a dollar, but l am going &c
keep 1t up just as long as ! am a
banker and just as long as babies
continue to arrive"

PSYCHOLOGY IN
LABORSTUDIED
TOEND MISHAPS
Prof, Munsterberg Takes up Sub
ieCt In Behalf Of u. S. De-
partment of Education.

WASHINGTON, June 1.-THE psy-
Geological side Of labor has been in
vestigated thoroughly by the United
States Bureau of Education of the
Department of the Interior.
Under the direction of Commits
sioner Of Education CIaxton, the con-
nection between psychology and the
every day work OF the men and wom-
en- Of the United States has been
tracked down and the result is the
discovery that there exists more of a
connection than at first was believed
there could be.
Psychology In Labor.
At first glance there seems to be
little psychology In labor. Psychol-
Ogy is something which commonly is
considered 70 be essentially a school
affair, having little to do with every
day bread winning
But the Commissioner of Education
says that everybody has been labor
ing under a delusion.
To prove this he takes the case Of
the street car motoTman. Now a mo-
torman seemingly has need Of little
education in psychology. Apparent
ly a working knowledge of which
way to turn his controller and how
and when 70 apply and loosen brakes
need be the extent Of his mental
equipment before qualifying for the
job of running the vehicle which daily
transports hundreds Of people.
Professor Munsterburg, at the in
stance Of the foundation and the bu-
reau of education, established several
psychological tests to be undergone
by applicants for positions as street
car motormen in a large Eastern city.
Test His Reliability.
These consisted of the understand
ing and use of elaborate apparatus,
Atlanta Georgian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1912-1939, 1913-06-15

The principal purpose of lh,se tests
was to discover an applicants relia-
bility IN time Of accident. Some of
the tests were TO discover If the APP
plicant had the faculty for keeping
his head" in time of mental stress or
physical danger. A foreman, instruc-
ting a recruit I'm the art Of manipulate
ing a controller on a street car in
the car barns scarcely would con-
slider Il worth while to spend time
in the examination of his pupil as to
his ability to keep his head when
something diyerting Is going on near
him or when danger impends.
But Hugo Munsterburg thought
that matter all important and carried
on endless experiments. He came TO
the significant conclusion that the
application Of such tests on motor
men as a regular thing would result
I'm the rejection Of about % per cent.
of those employed in running the city
street cars This means that one
fourth Of the people who ride on
street cars in our cities are daily in
danger Of accident as the result Of
the shortcomings OF street car mo
tormeu.

Teacher Holds Mock
Fight to Test Glass
Accuracy Of Vision
Mikes With Janitor in Rough and
Tumble Engagement to Find Psy-
Geological Effect on Pupils.

LAWRENCE. KANS., June IA
When Professor F. c. Dockeray, in the
psychological department of the Uni
versity of Kansas, got into an alter
cation with a janitor who entered the
class room and insisted upon sweep
ing while DOckeray was lecturing, a
number Of students came to his res
cue.
The affair grew into a free for-aI
Tight during which the janitor. who
had drawn revolver, was overpow-
cred and disarmed. As a student
srasped the pistol shot was fired.
As soon as order was somewhat re-
stored. and the frightened and fleeing
students reassembled, accounts were
taken from them of the affair. All
the students swore they heard the
shot. and several told of seeing the
smoke from the revolver Then Pro
lessor DocAeray told that it was an
experiment, a fight that had been
planned carefully, and that the shot
Of the revolver was from the outside
of the building by a student posted
there. The purpose of the experiment
was to show the unreliability of in
formation, even when furnished by
eyewitnesses.

Tempered Copper
Found in Canada
Araehaeologists viii Have to Deter
mine Whether It Was Fashioned
by indians or Mound Builders.

FORT WILLIAM, ONT. June IA
A crude copper hook. beaten by hand
out Of native copper, and possibly Of
prehistoric origin, was unearthed by
city workmen on the Stanley Avenue
sewer about 20 feet below the earth's
surface.
The hook is about seven inches
long, ami the loop of the hook proper
is two and a half inches in diane
ter. It's sides are fiat, beaten four
square, and show the imprint of a
small hat-faced hammer, and,
though slender the copper hook is so
exquisitely tempered that when bent
under pressure 1t Immediately springs
back into its original position like the
finest steel.
It is unquestionably a relic of some
American aborigine, but whether IT
was fashioned by an Indian or by his
predecessors, the mound builders, will
have to be left to the judgment of
archaeological experts.

CHICAGO, June 14-For twenty

George Eberhardt was n court yes
terday before Judge Petit, where his
wife was suing him for separate
maintenance. She was there, and so
were the five chi dren. The judge
looked first at the family Then he
looked sternly at the lawyers.

up a family like this" Judge Petit
commented. rs there no chance for
a reconciliation"
Non in the world" said both law
yers at once.
Apparently these people have been
reconciled before" he said you
lawyers stay out here"
George told a sorry story in the
privacy of the Judges chambers.
Pauline is changed" he said.
when married her she was anxious
enough to live in style, and she was
glad to have me save money for the
future Well, 1 did save. And after
awhile I had enough to put up an
apartment house that cost $1,000.
Wife Wouldn't Change.
Now we could do as we liked if
we liked, but Pauline don't want to-"
Mrs. Eberhardt, a tidy and compe-
tent looking little woman, interrupted
to explain.
IT'S not because l like to live in
the cellar" she said. "Only there's
a $500 second mortgage on the apart
ment house, and | thought by renting
all the apartments, instead of keeping

Il won't live in a cellar" cried the
waiter.

George said he would send $40 a
week to pay the grocery bill.

FORGOTTEN GIRL

Suggestion of Montgomery Miss
That 1t Be Played at Davis In
a1guration Made 1t Famous.

Abraham Lincoln called Dixie" the
best song of the war 1t was written
on rainy Sunday afternoon in New
York City, before the war, and its
composer, though of Nirginian and
Maryland descent, was born in Ohio;
nor was he Southern in sympathy, as
was Stephen Foster, and Lincoln's
judgment holds until to-day.
Sporadic newspaper controversies
have appeared as to the authorship
and original wording of Dixie" but
in the campfire gossip at the last
reunion of the United Confederate
Veterans, these were set at rest. and
the circumstances OF its adoption in
the South made clear.

his life. he very properly consulted a
pretty girl as TO his program.
Unfortunately the name of this girl
has escaped the researches of Mrs.

whose narrative these facts are quot
