Sarcastic.

The first step in learning whether
your child is properly nourished, we
read, is to "Weigh the child in kilo-
grams" The Kilograms are very light,
we understand, but if absolute ac-
.uracy, is required, you may weigh
The child in them first, and then later
rake 'em off and weigh 'em separately.
On second thought, we advise the sep
arate weight in all cases, especially
where the Kilograms are winter
weight.
Reading further, you multiply the
result by ten, and then "divide the
result by the child's sitting height in
centimeters"-just everyday centime-
ters will do-"and take the cube root
of the result, and you will have a fig
ure that will tell you whether your
child is properly nourished." Most
any architect or engineer in the tele-
phone book will be glad to call and
find the cube root for you.-Kansas

MEN OF GENIUS NOT "SMART"
English Professor Declares They Ar@

Immediate circumstances, Prof. r. Fl.
Pear, University of Manchester, said
at the Educational associations annual
conference at University college, that
"a genius is usually anything but
smart, and he distinguishes himself
from the merely smart man, who lives
up to the external demands, by refus-
ing to accept the surroundings, by set
ting about them instead of allowing
them to set about him.
II believe that some geniuses might
not achieve the topmost ranks in a
good many mental tests, especially in
those requiring rapid solution of prob
lens. A genius never sees any COM
plex problem in the same light as an
ordinary person and in a mental test
may appear to be stupid
Some brilliant scientists would
make woefully bad hospital orderlies,
district visitors or managers of a
household. The reason is not that they
cannot attune themselves to the situa-
ton"
Professor Pear divided people into
two classes, the extroverts and the
introverts. The extrovert won the
