Morris Public Schools is a ten year old
whose general intelligence is equal to
that of the, average child of fourteen
years, while there is fifteen year old
boy who, is not further advanced
mentally than the average ten year
old child. The boy who is five years
older chrOnologically is four years
younger mentally, difference of
nine years between their chronicle
gical and mental ages.
In another room is an eleven year
old girl whose mental age is fourteen
years, and fifteen year old girl
with a mental age of only eight
years, a difference of ten years be-
tween chronological and mental ages.
According to her mental ability she
belongs in the third grade.
Out of twenty-one fourteen-year
old grade children that were tested,
two were only sevens years old men
tally while four had the intelligence
of young men and women of eighteen
years. Although these children were
all born at about the same time,
there is a difference of eleven years
in their general intelligence.
Although there were a number of
pupils that ranked low in mental

ability there were more that ranked
high. The averages made by the var
ious classes were considerably above
the standards or average scores made
by the thousands of children all over
the country who have been given
these tests. ~ ~.
The following table gives the stan
dard scores for the high school and
grammar grades. age" is the
median age of the class, that is it is
the age of the middle pupil if all
the pupils are arranged in order from
the youngest to the oldest. If there
are twenty-five in the class the med
ian age would be the age of the
thirteenth pupil.
The STANDARD" is the average
score for pupils of his age. Score"
is the median score made by each
class in the Morris Public Schools.
And "CB" means the Coef1cient of
Brightness, term used to express
the relationship between ones actual.
age and ones mental age. When the
Coeficient of Brightness is over 100
it means that one is brighter than
the average pupils Of that age; where
it is less than 100 it means that one
is below the average in intelligence.

MORRIS PUPILS OF
HIGH INTELLIGENCE
Results Of Intelligence Tests Giving
in January Announced by Supt.
Utne Last Friday

Superintendent Utne announced
last Friday before the high school
the results of the intelligence tests
that were given during January to
the high school and upper grade
pupils. The majority of the pupils
ranked considerably above the aver
age in intelligence when compared
with the scores made by pupils else
where.
The highest score was made by
Thelma Smith of the Junior class.
The best score, considering his age,
was made by John Powell of the
sixth grade in the Longfellow build
ing, his sister Marion of the Fresh
man class being a close second.
The use of" intelligence tests were
made popular during the war. More
than a million and a half of our boys
were given such tests upon their en-
trance into the army. It was ex-
ceedingly important for the military
authorities to discover the. mental
caliber OF, the recruits. The draft
filed every training camp with tens
of thousands of young men. Many
of these were exceptionally capable;
these were first class material for the
officers training corps. A majority
of the others could be trained into
number whose level of intelligence
was so low that they either had to be
sent home as useless or retained as
common laborers around the camps.
Speed was the all. important thing
in the training camps. The govern
ment could not afford to waste time
in trying to make officers out of men
who were below the average in in
teligence. The foremost psycholo-
gists in the universities of the coun-
try were called upon to work out
some way of classifying the men en-
tering the army according to their
mental ability. The army intelli-
gence tests were the result, and they
were a pronounced success from the
first.
! These army tests have been revised
and adapted for younger children.
During the past month these revised
intelligence tests have been given to
the high school and older grade pu-
pills in the Morris Public Schools.
Tests of this kind should prove ex-
ceptionally valuable in the admins
tration of our schools. Since the
work in the schools is supposed to be
planned to fit the mental ability of
the pupils, it is important to know
what the mental ability of the pupils
is.
The, pupils in every school-room
differ greatly in age, height, weight,
ETC., but they differ still more in in
teligence, as the following illustra-
lions suggest:
In one of the grade rooms in the
Morris tribune., 1920-02-13

All the classes, with the exception
of the sixth grade. were considerably
above the standards for their ages.
The pupils on the whole showed very
clearly that as far as their intelli-
gence is concerned they are capable
of doing work considerably above the
average.
The following pupils made espe-
cially high scores. The names are
arranged in alphabetical order by
classes and not in the order of the
marks received in the intelligence
tests. They include the pupils in the
upper fourth of each class either
the total scores made or the coeffi-
cient of brightness or both.
