which psychologists invent intended to measure
brains-not learning so much the capacity to learn.
And if they include questions about authors, inventors
or movie actors this is simply because it has been found
that bright people pick up general information
than dull ones General information, however, IS only
one Of several indications of intelligence which such
lists measure, and in the tests it is not valued for ITSELF
but only as a sign Of intelligence.
Since intelligence brains is different from ntoma-
ton it is misleadir TO talk Of the intelligent classes
when one means the educated classes. for though it
usually takes brains to get an education to make
fortune bad luck may keep brainy person out of
either.
1t is the business Of college to give education
10 those who arc fitted to receive it, regardless OF class
But certain kinds of education demand preliminary
knowledge.
One cannot study engineering without mathematics.
and so certain amount Of mathematics is reasonable
requirement for those who would enter engineering
college: and in the same way certain amount OF
Greek Latin and mathematics necessary tor those
who entered college in which these the main
subjects taught But there are many subjects taught
in the colleges today which do not require such pre-
minaries.
One can Learn much about biology, chemistry, So
Geology and psychology without special training along

The Baltimore Sun, Democratic newspaper
which is telling the truth about the Democratic
campaign, says that the National committee is very
seriously embarrassed by lack of money. And Of
course the underlying meaning of that is the feeling
on the part of the Democrats that it is not worth
while to spend any money this year. Indeed Ste
uhen BonsaI one Of the writer's employed by The
sun says that there is a disposition high in the
management of the Democratic party TO permit the
election to 90 by default Evidently the popular
desire for change at Washington is so great that
no amount of effort the part of the Democratic
politicians can arouse interest in the fortunes OF
the party this year.
