teen universities in the United States
and one in Tasmania have already
adopted the Columbia psychological
tests.
Test Indeed.
Here is Test Z, employed yester-

gauge the mental efficiency Of those
who seek admission to, let US say,
the next freshman class az Columbia:

That test would set wilder the Wild
Man from Tasmania, who used to live
in Sullivan street and be exhibited as
a freak at Coney Island. This low
brow would ask profanely:
