Tests are also used in schools and
Miss Horton said too much energy
was wasted in trying to bring sub
normal children UP to the average
of their companions. Criminals have
a mental weakness.
Tests are being used by some OF
the large firms in order to find out
if the applicants are fitted to preform
the tasks expected of them. This is q
great saving to the corporations.
AS to advantages they should be
so written and printed as to do three

Miss Hanson in STANDARD Tests in
Education showed what is being
done in schools, not only in testing
a pupil but testing class, whole
grade, in fact the whole schools of
city. In this way experts are able to
determine what pupils are weak and
what teachers are not up to the
standard.
In test made in Baraboo the re-
suit showed the following:
In the 4th grade the test was IL,
the standard being Is.
In the 9Th grade the test was 10,
the standard being 10.
In the 9Th grade the test was 2,
the standard being 20.
A card was shown where the aver
age was very low in the lower grades
in one of the wards and high in the
upper grades.
It was held that tests have come
to stay, decided help to measure
the education of pupil. No doubt
the system will be extended and
promotions made on the tests used.
In Columbia university it was found
tests were more satisfactory in de-
termining the entrance of students
than diplomas or previous records.

You know how during the war the
PROFITEERS lied about La Toilette;
how their paid newspapers tried tc
disgrace him and drive him. out ol

has fought for the welfare of the

profiteers to reap their harvest from
the misfortunes of the world they did
not want Bob La Toilette in the way.
You know what they did to Bob La
Toilette and how they scared many
Progressives off the track. And you
know what they did to the PEOPLE
what they are doing now!
WELL WAKE UP FOR A GOOD
FIGHT!
Bob La Toilette was here in Madi-
son resting up to go under the sur
geon's knife at Rochester, but con
trary to the advice Of his physicians
he has gone back to Washington to
be in at the finish of the League Of
Nations fight.
But Bobs heart is back in Old
Wisconsin. He wants to know
whether the PEOPLE ARE GOING
TO BACK UP HIS WORK IN WASH
INGTON. If they do, it will put the
FEAR OF GOD into those who are
preparing for another great crime
to put all of the cost of the war on
the backs of the common people.
