ChiId-Care Ceniers
Aid 10 War Workers


Three child care and recrea-
tional centers are operating in
the Roseville area for the use
of children whose mothers are
outside of the home.
A nursery school for young
sters ages two to five inclusive
has been established at the old
Roseville Town Hall at Gratiot
and 1l-Mile roads. This center
is open from a. m. to 6 p. m.
and the cost for leaving children
is so cents daily.
The two remaining centers
are located at Eastland and Bur
ton High school grounds which
are open from $50 a. m. to $50
p. m. and the cost is 80 cents per
child. In all instances the daily
fee includes a noon day lunch.
The latter two centers are aim
ed to provide for children six to
13.
Weaving, leathercraft, swim
ming, and music are taught on
the advanced playfields under
the supervision of certified
teachers. Charles Adler, princi-
pal at Lincoln elementary school
in Roseville, teaches leathercraft
at Eastland, while Dan Rogers,
athletic director at Eastland
High school during the school
year, directs swimming and 9th
er play activities.
Nyrol Hayes, athletic director
at Burton High and George o.
son are in charge of activities at
Burton playground.
Joan Clark acts as supervisor
of the nursery school and is as
sisted by Pauline Kursteiner.
All three centers are sponsored
by the Eastland Board of Educa-
ton, subsidized in part through
the Federal Lanham Act which
affords financial assistance for
the maintenance of child care
centers. These centers will con-
tinue through the cooperation
of Clarence Sharrer, superin-
tendent at Eastland school, and
Glenn Schoenhals,. superintend-
ent of schools, Roseville.

tude tests Those which will be in most CON-
mon use, however. will attempt to obtain
answers to two or more of these questions:
I. What would you like to do best?
I. What do you know how to do best1
}. What are you capable of learning to do
best?
Obtaining the correct answer to that first
question is very important. 1t has been
proved over and over again that we are most
likely to succeed at work which we really
enjoy doing, but many of US don't know what
we would prefer to do. Like that wounded
soldier. Ed. we only think we know.
To find out what Ed really liked, the job
counselor tested him by the Kuder Prefer
ence method, a system devised by DR.. 6.
Frederick Kuder at the University of Chicago
which gives an accurate picture of preferences
in nine fields - mechanical, mathematical,
scientific, persuasive, artistic. literary, musi-
cal. social service and clerical.
The test showed that Ed had very little
love for persuasive and social service lines
as he should have had to become sales
man - but his score in scientific interests
was unusually high. A. . result, the oosan-
Eds preferences and also his aptitudes
as determined by other tests.
Preferences, while important, are only part
of the story in discovering the jobs we are
best fitted for. A general aptitude test can
also indicate our abilities.

call John Martin. John had been in turn
drugstore clerk, do1-to-door salesman, a
reporter for trade journal and a book
keeper He had earned living at all these
iobs, but that was about all.
Hase's Hsv N Webs
WHEN the war came. John applied for
Job at a large defense plant and was given
an aptitude test similar to those used by
many other industries, by the Army and the
u S. Employment Service.
First of all, he was checked up on verbal
abiIiiy with questions like this one:
"A punctual person is one who is (0) late,
(N prompt, (e) handsome, I'D precocious?"
John did just fairly we'll at this test, which
may explain why he never shone as sales
man or reporter.
Next came a test in bereebtatoI speed, or
clerical aptitude" as it is often called.
John was asked to compare two columns of
figures while stop watch ticked off the time.
Some of the figures opposite each other were
alike and some almost alike. He wasn't too
hot at this test either. No wonder he had
never excelled as bookkeepH.
John did better in the a1ithnseticol reasoning
test by solving such problems al this:
IF a tree which is known to be 80 feet
high casts a 2Ofoot shadow, what is the
height of building which casts 6O-foot

had taken little more than an hour - the
vocational guidance expert was able to make
a general diagnosis of Johns abilities. His
scores in mechanical and structural aptitude
and in arithmetical reasoning seemed to indi-
cate engineering ability. Moreover. his high
tweezer dexterity Indicated he would be pro-
fcient with small tools or instruments.
The plant needed craftsmen desperately
just then, 50 John became an apprentice.
He caught ON right from the start, took an
engineering course at night, and now IS
ll-Hedged junior craftsman and happier
man than he ever was before. A general apti-
tude test enabled him to find himself.
Ysu Have cAsiee
Nor always, of course can such tests point
a person as directly toward given job as IN
John Martins case but they usually tell the
expert the big job family to which you belong.
After determining your preferences and siz-
ing you up generally, he can then suggest
half dozen or more vocations suitable for you.
These, then, are the tests which will be
available to veterans at military Separation
Centers. Whether or not the soldier takes
such q test will be optional to him, but mil
lions will find it wise to do 50. Similar tests
may be taken by puzzled job seekers at
USES. Offices.
If you wish to 90 further into self-analysis.
there are number of tests given outside the
government which attempt to fathom per-
sonality.
Pe1haps the most famous of the aptitude
examinations which include personality test
ing are those developed by johnson OCnnor
of the Human Engineering Laboratory OF
Stevens Institute of Technology. These tests
endeavu to measure creative Imagination,
number memory and tonal memory m addi-
ton to the aptitudes have mentioned.
In the creative imagination test, you are
given five minutes to s1ibble down your re-
actions to this proposition:
..Suppose the sum should fail To rise to-
morrow morning. What ideas docs this
suggest to you?''
The tonal memory test attempts through
the use of recorded sounds to determine
whether or not We can tell one note from an
other. If little Johnny has this ability. he may
grow up to be fine musician. If he hasn't,
there's not much sense IN making him fog
the piano day after day He'll do better, per-
haps, at art OF woodworking.

THAT's one of the comforting things about
aptitude tests. They show that all of us pos
sess sufficient abilities to fit into some con-
genial occupation Moreover, most of us have
enough to spare to provide for hobby or
two. It merely matter of taking inventory.
This human inventory taking will soon be
in progress on a scale we have never seen
before From coast to coast we will witness
a wholesale measuring of abilities as we turn
from war jobs to permanent peacetime voca-
tons But we must not expect too much.
Lieut.. Co.. Marion w. Richardson of the
Adjutant Generals Department, who is gen.
orally credited with being the Father" of
the Army's General Classification Test, en-
emphasized this. There is no one test or group
of tests, he said. which can tell us all about
ourselves. Perhaps there never will be.
But giant strides have been made. Thanks
to aptitude tests, more Americans will hold
Jobs they are fitted for than ever before.
More of them, too, will find real happiness

RETURN OF TWO NEGROES
