The Man With "a job.

Gary chairman of the Executive Com

Unemployment. He says that a pre-

in the metropolis has been made,
and that it is the duty of his commit
tee to serve notice on all who are
seeking work not to come to New
York this winter. He adds: New
( York will have enough TO do TO take
care of its own distressed, and can
not assist at this time those from
other communities in need of
help"
The same warning has been sound
ed from Chicago, where the chari-
table organizations and relief com
mittees are taxed to their utmost to
provide some sort of means by
which the unemployed of the Windy

While New York, Chicago and San

Unable to stand it any longer, though

Why Does a Baby Smile?

An interesting mental process with
physical manifestations which is found
in every healthy baby is smiling. 1t
is a remarkably early one, too, and
child of month old will often show
distinctly pleased smile when it's lit
tie face is patted or it is tickled. At
first the smile spreads very slowly
over the tiny features, then, as time
passes, flashes up on the face and
dies away again with equal celebrity,
and by the time the first three morths
are past is accompanied often enough
by little chuckles of glee.
But laughing comes later, often
much later, and many children never
really laugh until they are a year
old, or even more. 1t is, indeed, very
rare to hear laughter before the first
six months are accomplished, and
when it is heard it should be regard
ed as symptom of unusual intelli-
gence, maybe gratifying to mothers
pride, but most certainly not to BIZ
excited or provoked.

David Livingstone as "the man who

very accurately. Like many another

see stopping places, but keep their eyes

of them. 1t is the man who will GO

That is probably one of the great
reasons why we have so few saints.

Measuring Spelling Ability.

Seven out of every 100 third.
grade public school children can
not spell has" This and other
curious evidences of the special
problems inherent in the teach
ing of spelling are brought out
by DR.. Leonard P. Ayres, Of the
Russell Sage Foundation, in a
study just published.
AS a result of combining the
four most extensive studies that
have been made to identify the
words commonly used in differ
emf sorts of English writing, DR..
Ayres has selected the 1000
words that constitute go per
cent. of the language ordinarily
used. This selection was made
from various English authors,
from four Sunday newspapers of
Buffalo, N. Y, and from the
business and family correspond
ence of over 1000 adults. The
objects of the study was to de
yelop a scale for measuring at
tainment in the spelling of COM
mon words on the part of school
Children"
Cooperating with the city
superintendent in 81 cities of the
United States, DR.. Ayres had the
1000 commonest words tested by
an aggregate of 100000 spell
lings, secured from 10000 public
school CHILDREN. The result. ac-
cording to DR.. Ayres, made it
possible to accurately measure
spelling ability, and to compute
the amount of improvement in
spelling the same words from
grade to grade.
By scale arrangement, ex-
tending on line from 0 to 100,
spelling ability" is easily and
scientifically determined. For
example. nine words of most fire.

ten" bed" top" revealed
that second-grade pupils, on an
average, spelled correctly ga per
cent. of these words. AT the
other extreme of the scale the
words Judgment recon-
mend,' and "allege" were found
to be spelled correctly by just so
per cent. of eighth-grade pupils.
Percentages above and below
these would indicate variations
from the normal in spelling.

people as are physical traits.
Just as there are few dwarfs,
many people of medium height,
and very few giants /; so there
are very few exceedingly poor
spoilers, many medium ones, and

words do most of our work when
we write. Fifty words consti-
