Everyday Psychology

School Psychology.

Most people imagine that school Is
place where brains are developed and

mathematics will improve ones reason
ing powers Or that a course in Latin
will improve ones memory. Or that
a course in art will improve ones eSthe-

tied with creation or improvement Of
powers.
You still find required studies in prac-

means that our college administrators
have some sort Of faith in the notion
that certain courses yield disciplinary
results They may tell you that they
don't believe it. Nevertheless they give
the impression that they do believe it.
During the last 10 or IS years some
men have tested this psychology. They
find no more discipline in one subject
than they do in others. If, for example.
you learn to reason mathematically,
there is no guarantee that your reason

How 1t Started
BY JEAN NEWTON.
That Word Thrill"

If you were asked off-hand to guess
at the root meaning from which our
very familiar word thrill was derived
you would choose the root OF excite
ment" or perhaps sensation" or, de-
pending on how you get your greatest
thrill, perhaps horror" 1t would never
occur to you that this term is descend
ed from the prosaic word drill But
that is how it started.
The ultimate ancestor of thrill was
the Ang.o-Saxon "pyrel," an aperture,
a hole! ITO thrill comes to us from
"pyrelan." meaning pierced. Then came
the Old English "thrillen." 1t meant
to bore. to perforate by pointed in
strument.
In the transition from that to its
present significance, We have Spenser's
lines He pierced through his chafed
chest with thrilling point of deadly iron
brand"
The bridge in meaning was some
thing that affected one with a shiverlng,
throbbing. tingling sensation, as of a
needle piercing ones flesh.

LIQUOR WARRANT
ORDERED BY JUDGE
Acts on Own Authority After
Prosecutor Declines Unless
Instructed.

Judge Ralph Given, following an al
most unprecedented course of action, or
dered liquor warrant sworn out on his
own authority in Police Court today,
after the district attorneys office refused
to issue papers charging three defend
ants with transportation.
Later this warrant was nolle pressed
by District Attorney Leo A. Rover
The trio. Governor and Elizabeth
Brookins and Nathaniel Fletcher. all
colored, were first brought to court on
charges of possession, on information
issued by Assistant United States At
torney David A. Hart, chief of Police
Court liquor prosecutors. They pleaded
not guilty and waived jury trial.
When the arresting officer, Sheldon
r. Mckee. eleventh precinct, testified
he had seen the three drive into an
alley on Eastern avenue and later found
II gallons of alleged whisky in their
car, Judge Given interrupted to state:
II do not have jurisdiction in this
case. The amount involved is more
than one gallon. These defendants
should be charged with transportation
and the case sent to the grand jury"
Hart Explains Policy.
Mr.. Hart replied, Il will not issue
a warrant for transportation, Your
Honor, unless so instructed by my
superior Mr.. Rover"
The prosecutor later explained he felt
the District attorneys Office had right
to reduce any charge Of this sort If it
wished to do So He said in possession
information, no exact amount of liquor
is stated. and the case, therefore does
not necessarily go beyond the jurisdic
ton of Police Court, which may handle
cases where the amount is less than a
gallon.
Commenting upon Mr.. Rover's action
in nolle pressing the warrant, Mr.. Hart
explained it has been the policy of liquor
prosecutors in Police Court to avoid
sending to the grand jury unimportant
cases which might be construed as
felonies which probably would be ignored
by that body. He said the District at

to place lesser charges against the liquor
defendants and obtain trial in Police
