THE DAILY
HOROSCOPE
Friday, November 4.

Contending planetary influences will
mark tomorrow, according to astrol'
| ogy, which finds the early hours much
| more fortunate than the evening.
| All who seek employment should
make good, use of the morning hours,
when there will be chance for care
| full consideration of personal repre-
sentations.
1t is a fairly lucky day for all who
are engaged in work that is produc'
tive or constructive. Engineers are
especially well directed while this
posting of the stars continues.
Journeys are supposed to be fortu'
nate, il begun in the morning. and the
prognostication is that travel VIII be
extensive all through the Winter.
The evening should be an suspicious
time for association with persons OF
power and influence.
After sundown. the sway favors con-
ferences- and discussions; lucky for
politicians and promoters.
Prices for food and clothing will ad-
vance sharply until the end OF De-
cember, it is forecast.
Italy now will come much to the
front in newspaper accounts, 1t is
foretold. Egypt. also, will furnish ma
terial for sensational headlines, If the
stars are rightly read.
Editors and magazine contributors
may expect unfair criticism in the
coming months.
Unusual strain on the postal serv-
ice is indicated for the next few
months.
Persons whose birth date it is have
the augury of profit in the coming
year, which should be generally pros
porous.

good judgment. Girls don't do as well
as boys. Boys and girls don't differ
much in what they are inclined to be-
| heve. Few have any faith in the Fri.
day" notion: boys were more inclined
to take stock in the blonde" notion
| than the girls. When a similar test
was made upon grown.up men and
! women, it appeared that at age IL
your head contains more false notions
than later on. Experience does some.
| thing after you leave school. Women
| remain more credulous than men. But
! the chief result is this: If you rate
those boys and girls by their tested in.
telligence, you find no difference in
good sense as thus indicated and good
intelligence. That doesn't settle the
matter. It's just feeler. A good
mind must be strong in both qualities.
Your good judgment about what to
believe seems to depend upon the gen.
eral factors in your makeup and your
surroundings, your reactions to ex.
perience rather than to book learning.
Much OF 1t you take on, like your
views on politics, from the opinions
about you. But even here you select;
YOU become critical. What we need
is way to test how critical you are
before you make mistakes by poor
Judgment. The wise man learns by
| others mistakes. The conclusion is
rather a sad comment upon our edu.
cation. We should be able to educate
for good sense as well as sound infor.
nation. Removing ignorance is only
o step in training the mind.

Intelligence and Good Sense.

Is the ability to learn in school any
test of good judgment in the ordinary
affairs of life? Does learning go with
common sense? There's a common
belief that plain practical sense and
book learning are at odds. 1t would
be hard to prove it one way or the
other. The truth may be that they
are fairly Independent, that learning
neither helps nor hinderS good judg-
ment.
So much depends upon sviass sou
put your mind to. A goae business
man is supposed to exercise good tudg.
ment in practical affairs. But outside
of his own field he may invest in
beliefs that would be gold bricks as a
financial venture. He may fan for
notions that "a professional man,
trained in handling ideas, would dis.
miss as nonsense. A Spanish proverb
says that the wisest man is at a dis
advantage in strange house.
Here Is a little test: One hundred
boys and 100 girls in a high school.
about IL years old, check off their
opinions, as true or false, of 40 state.
ments like these: A child is born with
a knowledge of good and evil; the lines
in your hand tell your. fortune: women
are not as intelligent as men; people
sometimes grow feeble-minded from
overstudy; Friday is an unlucky day;
some animals are as intelligent az the
average man.
DO you believe any Of these notions
or would you call them all false? One
might get UP a new kind OF "ask-me
another" on this plan, to test your
good sense rather than your stock OF
information.
Some Of these statements are quite
absurd: others are more wrong than
right; and others could be argued
either way. To believe some Of them
would count heavily against your good
