obtained by this method whereby
the children learn the funda-

seen how enthusiastic the chill
dren are when after six or eight
weeks of instruction they can
play 10 or IL simple pieces.
Since the children are taught in
a class of six or more the lessons
are not prohibitive for the
parent who has several chill
dren and a small fee for six or
eight pupils makes the payment
worthwhile for the teacher.

ANSWERS TO QUERIES.
REQUEST?

fFrom Mrs. J. G. H., Siluer SPRING.
If Mrs. R. G. of Washington,
who inquired about aptitude tests
of the type originated by Johnson
O'Connor, will write the authors
of the book. Know Your Real
Ability" care of the publishers, I
believe she will be directed to the
laboratories where Mr.. O'Connor
gives his tests. I believe they are
at Stephens College in New Jer-
sey, just outside of New York City.
1t is my understanding that some
of our large manufacturing and
business concerns have found
these tests SO worth while they are
underwriting further work in the
human engineering" field for
Mr.. O'Connor. 49,.
A former employer of mine has
sent several people to Mr.. O'Con-
nor and has told me of some very
interesting results.
It is my own hope that high
schools and colleges will some day
make these tests available to help
young people direct their talents
or help them to find abilities they
do not know that they have. It
seems to me many of our edu-
Gators who are planning our pres
ent courses for high schools and
placing greater emphasis on the
trade are overlooking a wonderful
opportunity when they do not first
acquaint themselves with Mr..
O'Connor's work in the field of
human engineering" Parents at
least can help their youngsters
along their lines and I, for one,
can recommend the book, Know
Your Real Ability" to all parents
Of high school age children.

ence to Adel Davis cook book

column. This Is a must for the
