"Army" Tests for calIsnians

That the results of regular academic
tests do not clash with the results Of
psychological tests, but accord with
them, is shown by comparison Of the
grades made by Penn state college
students in both kinds of examina-
tions. For the last two years freshmen
have been given the army, Thurstone
and Binet-Simon tests and these re-
suits compared later with their aca-
demfc ratings. Invariably those stu
dents who made low averages in the
psychological tests were low in their
college work. OF 81 students dismissed
on account Of poor scholarship last
year the average for the army "alpha"
test was 118, while the general av-
erage of the students is 131. OF the
three types Of psychological tests
tried the results of the army test have
proved to be the best indication of the
grade of work student will do in col.
lege.

old days of water famine and drying

is ascribed to careful management Of

eliminate waste. In past seasons

TRUE DA vIMcI IN LouvRE7
Museum Director SCOTS at Theory
That Famous Painting Has Been
Brought TO America.

Artists and friends of the Louvre
museum may reassure themselves.
The original Of Leonardo da Vinci's
painting, La Belle Ferronnlere, .
hangs In the museum and is not In
America. This on the authority Of
D'Estournelles de Constant, director
of national museums.
"This is an old story" said the d.
rector. 1T is not the first time that
the authenticity of our masterpieces
has been questioned by foreign collec-
tors. There seems to be no way Of
putting stop to the habit.
"The painting entered among our
collections under the title Of La Belle
Ferronniere' was certainly from the
brush Of Leonardo da Vinci himself.
1t was among the art treasures Of
Francis ! and, in 1912, Pere Dan, the
kings minister Of finances, identified
It as the portrait of the duchess Of
Mantau. Certain historians, on the
other hand, have maintained that 1t
was that Of Lucrezia Criveli. It is
generally conceded today that the pic
ture represents La Belle Ferroniere,
one of Francis rs favorites.
whoever 1t may represent, how
ever, the painting had always hung In
the private apartments OF the king
until 1t was transferred to tile Louvre.
