CAMP DIX. wrghtstown. y. J., oct 26'
Preparations are now being made In the
Base Hospital here for the conduct OF
distinctly new departure in classification OF
soldiers--the psychological study Of every
soldier in the camp. Considerable confusion
in the lay mind exists as to the purpose
and methods Of these tests. The average
civilian having read of the nervous anu
equilibrium tests which the aviators are
subjected to, pictures the rookie as being
a victim to all sorts of tricks and traps
which win reflect the measure Of his cour-
age. nerve, intelligence or ability to lead
men. These tests are associated In his
mind with firing revolvers. walking OF a
chalk line or machines that viii record
the time Of nervous reactions
The real purpose Of the tests Is to get
a laboratory record of the grade Of in
telgence of the men In the National Army
which will be turned over to the company
commanders and will serve as another
means of helping the captain OF com
pany to measure the capabilities OF his
men.
As a result of the examination the men
will be grouped into five classes by the
psychologists according to the intelligence
of the men as developed by their reactions.
These ratings will be \ B d E. Past
tests have proved that about five per cent
OF the subjects will be In Glass A, men Of

Deserved R~etribution.

A householder in a small English
town told a billeting officer that 1t
would not be safe to send any sol
diers to him as his four children were
just recovering from an attack of
w%hooping cough.
Being anxious for the welfare of
the soldiers, the officer fed precipi-
lately. Later he learned there had
been no w~hooping cough In the house ;
in fact, the people were childless. He
felt annoyed, and called again at the
house, a week later, followed by six
men. Said he, very blandly:
These six fellows are just ecover-
ing from w%hooping cough. We didn't
know what to do with them, but as
you have had whooping cough here, /
feel it's the only place where it will be
safe to billet them"
And the dismayed householder had
to take them all in.
