MARTIN RECEIVES
NEW CHALMERS

T. c. Martin, local agent for the
Chalmers Motor Car Co., is this week
riding around in brand new Chal-
mers of the four-passenger speedster
type 1t is an elegant machine and
Inquiries already received by Mr..
Martin indicate large sale of the
Chalmers in Pullman this spring.
The speedsters sell at $3.50 in Pull
man, with other types in proportion.
One of the biggest points in favor of
the new Chain ers. according to Mr..
Martin, is the engine. which is es-
pecially constructed to give a maxi
mum amount of power from the low
grade gasoline now on the market.
In many engines of the moment
the gas passes on its way from the
carburetor to the cylinder through a
tunnel which runs all the way
through the engine block Before
the gas gets to the cylinder it is
forced to turn many sharp angles
and does not become completely
mixed with the air, This results in
raw gas running into not only one
but all the cylinders, particularly
when the car is cold, and especially
when running for the first five or
10 miles. In the case of the Chal-
mers engine this type of intake mani
fold has been completely eliminated.
A new manifold, termed The
Ram shorn, has been constructed of
simple piping. 1t is on the exterior
of the engine 1t is manifold of
easy curves so that there are no
sharp corners for the raw gas to
lodge against and be pushed into the
cylinders
The next development was to give
the gas the proper amount of heat
after it came from the carburetor
What is termed a hot plate" is built
in at the top of the throat of the car
bueretor so that the gas coming
straight up from the carburetor hits
the hot plate" the dimensions of
which have been worked out very
scientifically, and then passes around
the easy curves of the smooth mani
fold in a perfect state of mixture and
at the proper temperature to each OF
the cylinders

EDUCATIONAL INNOVATION

A plan of vocational guidance that
experts declare will revolutieni2e the
system by which children from the
time they enter school wilt be
watched, their traits and abilities
classified and catalogued that the
teacher may, at glance, not only
discover the best way to teach the
child, but what the youngster may
learn best, is the work now nearing
perfection in the Oakland school de-
partm ent.
The first step is now under way in
a practical school for teachers. where
"a are learning the details of Civ
ing psychological tests to determine
the mental tendencies of children.
By next year all principals will be
expected to know this work. Forms
have been prepared for the tests and
for filing these, almost as Bertillion
measurements are filed. When the
system is under way it will be DOS
sible to read at a glance the mental
measurements of every child enrolled
in the public schools.

TO Avoid HaphaZard

THE average child, even in the
high school, has no idea what occu-
patton he or she is best fitted for or
even what re or she desires to fol-
low" declares Dickson. The par
ents may choose an occupation, and
later the child must readjust himself,
when, if he does at all, he discovers
himself. Much damage has been
done by this haphazard way of choos-
ing the occupation of the child, when,
taken at the right time, a few sim
pie and obvious tests will point with
absolute certainty to the needs of
the child"
The work under way in the pub
lie schools was first taken up under
the Bucket Foundation at Stanford
University, and Dickson was for some
time engaged in research there.
1t will probably be several years
before the work is completely out
lined, as records for several years
must be taken and teachers instruct
ed carefully in making the tests and
surveys.
THE public, too, will have to learn
more about it, said Dickson. Now
adays people think when they hear
psychology that it is fad. AS a
matter of fact it is as certain as the
multiplication table and there is
nothing mysterious about it at all.
The plan has already been absolute
ly proved a success and there is not
the chance of a doubt about it,.
The schools for principals will
probably be established this term.

PROTEST Is FILED
WITH CITY COUNCIL
Against the Assessment for the cost
of the Wall in Local Improvement
District No. 80

At the meeting of the city council
Tuesday evening the resignation of
Clyde Myers, as city engineer was
rendered and accepted.
The Pullman Savings and Loan
association filed protest against the
assessment of $144 against lot l and
$145.50 against lot ,, in block ] 6. of
Main Street Extension to Pullman,
for the retaining wall built in front
of these lots. The protest is based
on the ground that the wall was built
for the protection of the pavement
and that the cost should have been
assessed to the whole improvement
district instead of against the two
lots. The protest was referred to a
committee composed of Councilmen
Nye. Duthie and Roth for investiga-
ton.
Ordinance No. $50 was passed 1t
confirms the assessment roll of Lo-
cal Improvement District No. 80.
On petition Of j. X. Smawley to
have the city furnish part of the
1900 feet of water pipe to connect
his home with the water system, an
appropriation of $50 was made to
help pay for the pipe.
Councilman Roth reported that the
coping on the Ankeny building is in
a dangerous condition. He was APP
pointed to act as building inspector
The purchasing committee was au-
thorized to investigate the price of
fire hose and to purchase the quality
they deemed best and cheapest.

System Perfected

The work is being completed un-
der the direction Of Virgil E. Dick
son, noted psychologist and director
OF reference and research in che Oak
land schools. He and Superintendent
Fred Hunter have perfected the sys-
TEN, which is to be the ground work
for the future vocational guidance
work in the schools.
The salient features of the plan
are as follows:
Each child's mental capacity will
be tested yearly, and the tests filed
together with history, environment
and all other data for each case
One child, for instance. learns best
and remembers best what he sees
and may not remember what he
hears. This child is mentally built
for an artisan, Another may remem-
Der what he hears. This is the
groundwork on which to build for
mental worker. These are only gen
eral rules that give an idea of the
broad aspect of the work. Every
angle is gone into, the child's mem
DRY for poetry, constructive ability,
sustained thinking ability, reasoning
ability ability to distinguish weight,
shades of meaning, color-every pos
sible process of the mind. These
tests are reduced to a mathematical
certainty.
With these tests at hand the voca-
tonal counsellor can tell at once
what subjects the child is best adapt
ed to study, and, within a few years,
what trade or occupation the child Is
best fitted to follow.

Use Cocoanut Oil
For Washing Hair

Ii you want to keep your hair in
good condition, be careful what you
wash it with
Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much alkali. This dries
the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and
is very harmful Just flaln mulbifind
cOcoanut oil (Which is pure and en-
tirely greaseless), is much better than
the most expensive soap or anything
else you can use for shamrooing, as
this can't possibly injure the hair
Simply mo.sten your ha,r with wa
ter and rub it in. One or two tea :
ypoclfuls will make an abundance o.
rich, creamy flather, and cleanses the
hair and scalp thoroughly. The latheT
rinses out easily, and removes every
particle of dust. dirt, dandruff and
excessive oil. The hair dries quickly
and evenly and it leaves it fine and
silky, bright, fluffy and easy to man
age.
You can get mulsified cocoanut oil
at most any drug store. 1t is very
cheap and few ounces is enough ITO
last everyone in the family for
months.
