 The beginning of the Kensingto ton- Falcon series, most likely spells the beginning of the end of baseball for this season. Only . few short weeks of the season are left in which to play and these two teams will go some to finish their series before nasty weather sets in.
 More and more each year are the seasons overlapping each other. Football is getting an early start this Year. Before, 1t was we'll after the world series that football was really in full swing.

WEST LYNN, Mass dP).--The nurs-

for measuring mechanical aptitude

such ability.
It is nothing more nor less than a

pieces together has been found to be a
good indicator of innate mechanical!
aptitude.
Different Speeds.
Among 1000 persons who have as
sembled the blocks the fastest thousand
completed the task in TWO and three
quarter minutes or less, while the SLOW
est thousand required more than SIN
minutes. Many of these individuals
we're mature holders of responsible po-
sitions. and by segregating them into

nor of the company's human engineer

| pations in which the rapid block as
semblers can succeed, and also those IN

dictate that the wiggly blocks measure
an innate aptitude which, after the
