MANY business houses seem TO think
that they can employ children after
school hours without the consent Of their
parents. This is a mistake. The law
states that children under IL cannot be
employed in any establishment with the
purpose Of making money from their
labor. Children between Ia and 16 may
work after school hours with the consent
of parents and those over 10 may work
at any time with the consent Of their
parents.

DOROTHY DIX TALKS-Are You Booster or KnOCker?


The average man is very apt to live up to
his wife's blue china and be what she expects
him to be, and helps him to be.
There is nothing stranger than that women
have so little understanding of the effect that
home atmosphere has on man. They appear
to regard that as negligible and to have no
appreciation of the fact that it is the most
important factor in determining his success
or failure in life.
Most women desire to help their husbands,
but their idea of doing this is by saving dimes
here and there, or wishing they could earn
few dollars themselves Thrift and good
management in the houehold are, indeed,
first aids to prosperity to any family, but
the real way, the big way, that any woman
can help her husband, is by bolstering up
J. his courage in himself, and by making for
him peaceful and happy home
NO man can do any more than he thinks
he can do. That is his ultimate measure of
success, and if his wife is a perpetual dis
courager, she reduces his limit of achieve
ment by just so much. Nobody knows just
what schemes will succeed until they are tried
out. Nobody can tell beforehand what
dreams will come true, but we all know that
those who never venture anything never have
anything. And right here is where women
make or mar. For one woman holsters up
her husband 18th her courage and nerve to
try his WINGS and the other wet-blankets
every aspiration and ambition until he gives
up, and sinks into the rut of mediocrity.
VI course, there isn't woman in the
world who doesn't see her husbands faults
and weaknesses, but if she is wise, she
doesn't Constitute herself a critic on the
hearth. He gets plenty of knocks in the out
| side world Without having to come to an eX-
| pert hammer wielCer Rather is it her place
| to spread the salve over the sore places
where the skin has been knocked off his
| vanity, and restore his belief in himself
| We were told during the war that if we
wanted our troops to win battles we must
| keep up their morale. That goes for every
day life as we'll as for war. The man who
succeeds must have his morale kept up. And
| the job of doing that is his wifes job.
The woman who wants her husband to sue
coed, must make him happy home. The
man who can drop sail his troubles at his
! front door and pass into place where his
body is we'll fed and comforted, where his
nerves are soothed, and he has fresh hope
and courage breathed into him, goes forth
next day like a giant refreshed,
But the who has a home that is a
perpetual storm center, whose evening is spent
| in pickering, and his nights in listening to
curtain lectures, goes to his work next day
physically unstrung and mentally untitled to
cope with business problems. Nor does he
put up much of fight, for before you, fight
for wife and home, you have got to have
a wife and home worth fighting for.
So, if you want your husbands to succeed,
! ladies, boost. Don't knock.

THE FUNERAL
By Dr.. Frank Crane

The other day man in New York observed
the funeral of his wife by cremating the body
and scattering the ashes to the four winds.
The ceremony took place at twilight at a
place on Staten Island.
The family, close relatives, and a few init
mate friends were present.
The sister, at the conclusion of the service,
on being interviewed, said that the place
chosen by her brother was Out Doors, since
the free air. seemed to him the fitting place
to send the dust of one who had gone out
of the world; that the location was secluded
from the public, gaze; that there were spring
flowers and budding green things all around;
that twilight had always been the hour best
loved by the departed, and also seems SYM
Dol of the turning Joint from one sphere to
another and that the ceremony was secret
and in no way public.
Funerals are matters of the most intimate
taste and of the most unreasonable preju-
dices. People resent having the question dis
cussed
For this reason the most tyrannous custom
has assumed control of them.
The last rites of the departed soul, rites
which should be beautiful, inspiring and
helpful to the living, because the soul goes
back to rejoin the infinite, are as rule
cluttered with cheap mummery, and vulgar
lied by expense and lugubrious display
have no hope of reforming anybody or
changing his tastes, but wish to state as nv
strictly personal view that the ceremony
above described is most sweet, wholesome
decent and intelligent.
l loathe tombs, graveyards and mauso-
leums, particularly cemeteries where gaudy
marbles, side by side with humble slabs, con-
tinue to emphasize the artificial inequalities
of fortune and the silly precedences of money.
Personally-and any expression upon this
subject must be wholly PERSONAL wish my
intimate friend the Public to know that when
l die l want my earthly remnant to be dig
| posed of after the manner of this woman.
That is, 1 should like to be CD cremated,
so that as quickly and clearly as possible the
| atoms my spirit has used may go back to the
universe from which 1 borrowed them, (2)
spread to the winds and not kept in any grave
or urn, CD all to take place in the Spring,
when the air trembles with resurrection, ca
at Twilight, and 60 with only those present
who loved me.
L would have everything done to show that
| those remains are Not Me-

Defending Edison Questions

IT. HE reaction of the public to the ques
tionnaire propounded by Thomas A
Edison to applicants for positions in
his manufacturing plants has been one OF
| good natured tolerance, rather than serious
criticism, and the vast majority Of COM
mentators have been inclined to poke fun
| at the famous inventor.
However, DR.. Frankwcod E. Williams, AS
! sstant Medical Director of the National Com
mittee for Mental Hygiene and one of the
foremost Psychiatrists of the country, de-
| clares that the general public and the learn
ed critics of Mr. Edison themselves con-
fused over what the wizard of electricity
was trying to do.
1.-THE first IMPRESSION" he goes on to
say, was that he considered his questions
a test of intellectual ability, or, as some
have put it,-th value of college training.
This would seem not to be Mr. Edison's OBJ
ject, as he has stated clearly that his exam
ination is not a psychological examination.
Mr. Edison's interest is in obtaining men
who will make good executives. Evidently
from his experience he has decided that men
who are good executives must, in addition
to having intellect be alert, observing, have
a good memory and wide range of inter-
est His plan, therefore, seems to be to sort
out from among the large numbers who
come to him those who have the latter four
qualities. Having obtained men with these
qualities, it is then evidently his plan to
employ them temporarily and to judge OF
their intellectual capacity by his own obser-
walton of them. Clearly, then, his examina-
ton is not one of intellect, but merely Of
the foregoing qualities. None of these quail
ties, of course, lis sign of intellectual ca
pacity The may or may not be. Many in
dividuals of good intellectual capacity have
them, but a good many others have not. On
the other hand, many individuals with
low intellectual capacity have all of these
qualities, so that Mr.. Edison can make lit
tie Judgment on the intellectual capacity OF
his candidates by this method But, then,
that is not what he wishes to do, and for its
purpose the QUESTIONABLE may serve very
we'll"
There are many standardized tests of in
telIectuaI capacity that are widely used and
of great value, such the Binet-S1mon test,
the Yerkes-B Bridges test, the Terman test and
the army psychological test. These consist
of a series of graded questions so hat an in
dividual's intellectual capacity can be rough
w estimated either in terms of years or de-
ve1opment.
stare mental tests and have led to confusion
and criticism of Mr.. Edison in that the pub
lie thinks them tests of mental capacity.
That is not true They are not tests or
mental capacity but of intellectual capacity,
which is quite another matter. In judging
ones mental capacity, not only must intel
Iect be considered but other elements sucn
as will and emotion.

THE STORY OF DUSE-By Frederic j. Haskin

Italian railway carriages often hungry and
cold. There was nothing to compensate for
the drudgerv of this life. She was not her
aided as any child prodig--; in fact, her COM
panions looked upon her as a rather stupid,
plain little girl, who was absolutely hopeless
as an actress.
Buses greatness did not manifest itself
until she nature woman. Rachel was
famous at the age of II, but Mrs. Sddons
was 27 before she made her first great i'm
prassion and Duse was "a before she show
ed evidence of genius. She achieved few
small successes before that but it was in
her 25th year, in Naples, after her first sad
love affair, that she brought the Italian pub
lie to her feet.
