from Today fishing TRIP on the Lock
saw river.
The party left Moscow July 8 at
7:30 a. M, and arrived at Lowell at

where the party secured pack mules
and proceeded up the Locksaw, 10
miles, where camp was made.
They constructed a raft and all
hands manned the oars and crossed
the river, where most of the fishing
was done.
Awakens Memories
Mr.. Caplinger sang Steam Boat
Bilr' each time the river was crossed,
as he said it reminded him of his early
boyhood days on the Mississippi riv-
er. cap" is a good singer and the
party enjoyed his noise immensely.
Good catches of mountain trout
were made each day and the limit Of
speckled beauties was brought back
by each man.
Doc easily took first prize as the
best fisherman as he caught the
greatest number of fish. Wilson
claims the honor of catching the larg-
est fish, although Cap caught one
that was a mighty close second.
weighing one ounce less. These fish
were 16 inches long and put up a
hard fight before being landed.
A number of does and fawns were
seen and on the return trip the party
got close enough to one doe and fawn
to take a kodak picture.
The party reports excellent crops
on the Camas Prarie and very good
roads. All report an excellent time
on the trip and all are rarin' to go
again.

THE Bright PUPIL
Schools PROBLEM
DEAN HAGGERTY TELLS STU
DENTS PROBLEM OF THE
BRIGHT PUPIL

'The proper handling of the super
ior pupils of the public schools in
order to bring out all the qualities in
those individuals is of much greater
Importance to society than the giving
of extra attention to backward pu-
pills." said Dean M. E. Haggerty, OF
the school of education, University OF
Minnesota, in an address before the
summer school students at the uni
versity yesterday on the topic of ''The
History of the Development Of Men
tai Testing
Heretofore the preponderance of
effort has been directed towards the
speeding up of mentally inferior pu-
pills, to the detriment of the brighter
Ones,' said the dean who is consid-
cred one of the fore emost men in Am
erica on mental testing and other
psychological research work.
"The mentally superior pupil
oftimes is slowed up in his learning
ability because of being kept in
classes which travel at a too slow
rate of progress for his mind 1t leads
him to lazy on the job because he can
do in comparatively short time what
the other pupils require much lon
ger period.
Loss to Society
''The loss in efficiency of this sys-
tenn is not only an economic loss to
the individual but a social loss to the
community. Think Of the unlimited
powers that could be released in the
exceptionally bright boy or girl were
he or she given the opportunity to de-
velop apace with his or her ability
to develop.
II know personally of the case of
young lad who had no apparent
interest in his work because Of this
tendency. When I asked him why he
did not like school, he replied that he
should if he were allowed to do the
work of day in an hour and half
instead of being held to the task all
day. I tried him out and found that
he could do the work in an hour and
a half.
Think of the time wasted by that
boy and of the powers of intellect
that could not be unfolded without
special attention being given to his
particular ability to learn rapidly.
What power such person would be
for good in the community if his cap
abilities were fully awakened
Mental Tests Limited
Dean Haggerty devoted consider
able time to the discussion of the pos
sibilities of mental testing for use in
the public schools. He said that the
subject Of mental testing was COM
paratively recent science but that
great strides had been made. How
ever, he warned those present of the
limitations that such an objective
scale of measurement of school child
rem must necessarily have
Guest Of Dean and Mrs. Messenger
Dean Haggerty, who lectured on the
summer school lyceum, was one of
the head men in the psychological
testing department of the army dur
ing the war. Under the direction of
these men thousands OF soldiers were
given tests and a great fund of
psychological information amassed
While in Moscow the dean was the
guest of the department of education
and of Dean and Mrs. j. F. Messenger.
Tuesday evening Dean and Mrs. Mes
senger entertained at dinner in honor
of Dean Haggerty and others.
