The governing sign of this birth
date is Gemini, the sign of the Twins,
which gives these people a very
contradictory nature. The govern
ing planet is Venus. the goddess OF
love. and the birthstone is dia-
mond.
The faults Of persons born under
this sign are a scattering of force
and great unrest. They are natural
complainers and GROWERS and
imagine evil. They are never still.
though a responsibility or a duty
will settle these people with much
alacrity.
They crave knowledge. but are
exceedingly impatient of methods.
II is these people who must deceive
themselves. Some of the best pub
lie speakers and lecturers are born
under this sign, but they attain
enninence only by a great struggle
for continuity. and by honesty with
themselves.

Swiss Expenditures TO
Unemployment.

The international labor office
in Geneva, Switzerland, has been
informed that the expenditures of
the Swiss public authorities on
unemployment prevention and re-
lief from 1918 to end of January.
1922, amounted to over 400, ,000,-
900 francs. Two hundred and
seventy-four millions. four hun
dred and twenty-seven thousand.
one hundred and ninety-five francs
were expelled for the provision
of work to relieve the unemployed
while 126.966.S73 francs were ex.
pended in relief benefits to the
unemployed. The federal coun-
Gil Is asking the chamber for q
vote Of 50,000.000 francs for the
year 1923. or this amount U.s.
000, 900 francs would be required
to subsidize the relief works or
ganized by the cantons, 10000.
600 francs for the organization Of
public works by the confederation
itself, and the remainder for un.
employment relief.
II is interesting to note that
the relief works which the fed
erai council intends to under
take. include accelerated work for
army purposes, the renewal of
munition stocks and such work
as the making Of helmets and
military cloaks. .. ...

GARRETT P. SERVISS ON
MEASURING MINDS
Only by Ultimate Achievements Can Mans
Mentality Be Accurately Estimated.
Tests Often Fail to Reach Hidden
Solid Foundations

new measures of mental power are
not confined to questions about
things that can be learned ana
remembered. but that they are
specially aimed at Just the things
on which am insisting. VIZ. the
underlying powers and qualities OF
the mind. To q certain extent this
10 no doubt true. as far as inten-
ton is concerned. but a close
examination will show that the
tests finally do resolve themselves
into a mere examination OF ac-
quired faculties and habits OF men
tai action. They may partially re-
veal the stage that the evolution
OF the mind has already attained.
but they give no information about
the capacity for further. or other.
evolution that lies behind.
One great fault, II seems to me,
with all attempts made through
the schools to measure. or esti.
mate, the intellectual powers OF
youth, lies In the fact that too
much stress Is put upon early
i would even say, premature
development.
Prodigies Often Fall.
It is another notorious fact. in
addition to those with which We
began, that youthful prodigies
commonly turn out failures In
middle life, and often earlier. The
strongest minds are those that
develop with relative slowness.
Leaving out Of account the few
great geniuses who have astonish.
ed the world by their achieve.
ments when they were just pass
ing from youth into manhood. /
think 1t is unQuestionable that the
worlds most useful men and wom.
en-, and most successful. have been
those who ripened rather slowly.
80 slowly in many cases that the
tests OF the schools would have
passed over their heads because
their real stature had not yet been
attained.
Young men often feel. despite
their rejection by pedagogues and
psychological experts. that there Is
a slumbering power In them. Let
them bank on that feeling; 1t is
apt to be sound.
