AMERICAN INDIAN
HAS AN ALERT MIND
Psychology Professor Makes Many
Tests.

Austin, Texas, April 23.-For the
last three years DR.. t. r. Garth,
professor of psychology of the Uni
versity of Texas. has been making
tests of the mental capacity of the
Indian, the negro and Caucasian.
These Investigations have brought to
light the fact, he says, that the
American Indian has as alert mind
as white people. He recently spent
some time among the Indians of New
Mexico and Oklahors, carrying on
his test.
In Oklahoma Dr. Garth visited the
Chilocco~ Indian Training School,
which is supported by the govern
ment and which offers instruction to
Indian children through the tenth
grade. He also visited an Indian
school in Albuquerque. N M, which
has Indian students from both New
Mexico and Arizona.
I'm all tested about 1000 Indians,
something over half of whom were
full blood, the rest ranging from one
eighth to fifteen sixtcenths Indian,
he said. "Some of the Indians are very
promising and have great possibili
ties. Heretofore. the average score of
the Indian in intelligence rating has
been below that of the white. But
the Indian excels both the white and
the negro in mental fatigue, that is,
the ability to continue longer at any
given mental process.
In the color preference test which
DIR. Garth conducted out of a group
of 100 Indian students, 3S preferred
red first, while green, orange, yellow,
purple and white occupied middle or
end positions in the scale of prefer
ence.
II have tried this color test among |
college Students" said DR.. Garth, |
.'and blue is the color preferred first.
Psychologists consider the selection
of blue as a sign of intelligence.
When l tried the. riddle test, ]
thought surely the Indians would
find stumbling block. but they an
swered readily, and after the test
was over one of the Indian girls came
up to ask me riddle
PSYCHOLOGY OF INDIAN PER-
SONALITY.
"Out of the general mental tests
which DR.. Garth has conducted has
grown the problem of studying the
psychology to which certain traits of
character found in the Indian are
compared with the same traits found
in whites. In the mental tests
trip, DR.. Garth used the form issued
by the. National Research Council
which is very much interested in
this work. The American Association
of Science also has assigned to DR..
Garth research fund and given :
other aid as evidence of interest in
the work.
At present DR.. Garth is not pre-
pared to give the complete results of
his recent test, as he says it will take
some time to complete the figures
from them any results which he OBJ

probability recalls very ancient days
when the pillow was the commonest OBJ

owe the name to the circumstance
that one of these cartways or usages
was crooked. The history Of London

The former are extremely hard and
