for over-driying their teams, said

talking to one Of the drivers yester-
day, he said that he had made three
trips that day to one house aud from
the store to the house is one and a

amounted to less than two dollars. He
stated that he had made as high as
eight trips 70 one place in a day.
1T is a common everyday occurrence
for the delivery teams to go two o.
three ana four times a day TO some
places.
These unnecessary trips are what

In the house, Republicans attacked
a majority Of the hundreds Of para

almost every instance they argued
that admission Of the various articles

would NOT reduce The cost Of living.
Majority Leader Underwood pointed
out that this argument was inconsisl-

said, ~as YOU gentlemen seem bound

Measuring Educational Efficiency.

TT. II. SpduluiilS.l
Everybody is ciamoring for efficiency
and almost everybody is claiming ell
ciancy-for that bit of educational eHort
for which he is directly responsible Aet
no other proposition stirs so vigorous
and often so indignant protest, as the
propostion to measure efficiency. inc
protest and attack that tnis simple pro-
posal is wont to provoke, are directed AT
the possibility Of such measurement
Instead OF engaging in theoretical ana
futile controversy OH this point, We neea
TO recognize these two fundamental ana
pertinent facts. First, we are measuring
efficiency all the time, We are measur-
ing ali kinds and aspects of efficiency,
each one from his own standpoint. ana
second. we cannot avoid measure efii-
cheney so long as we desire 1t ana seek
1t. In the light of these two facts, IT
is obvious that we should now concern
ourselves, not with discussion of the
possibility of measuring efficiency, but
with actual measures and measurements
of efficiency.
With the use of charts the speaker
showed and explained a large number of
measurements of efficiency taninS
to the organization, the curriculum and
the methods of instruction in the schools
under his own supervision.
In conclusion, he made it clear that
the usefulness of these or Of any other
measurements of efficiency can be de-
termihed only by those who use them.
The doubt of their value, the certainty of
their lack of value, that any one who
has never used them may entertain, de-
tracts not one iota from their usefulness
10 those who find them useful \ yard
stick is of no use to the man who will
not apply it; neither is ii of use to the
man who applies it with such lack of
confidence that he nj once ignores it's
indications, preferfing TO rely on his own

radically. DR.. Montessori allows only
one use of her material: Froebel
wishes a child to experiment freely to
gain self expression, and to re-create
his environment. In its appeal To the
imagination, the kindergarten is again
differentiated from the Montessori
system. Stories that give ideals of
child life, fairy tales that illustrate
great laws Of human relationship, ma
tHre poems, songs, representative
games and constructive use of male
rial, Freebel uses as legitimate FOOD
for the imagination. surely in inns
